Can’t they identify where the Rockets are being launched and destroy the place?
YES....they do so with drones.
The rockets are launched off the back of PU Trucks.
It’s shoot and scoot!
The US has used counter-battery radar in Iraq in the past but I don't know that any is still there. But the PR problem is that the muzzies tend to build makeshift rocket launchers in the beds of a pickup trucks and drive into someplace where the US would be hesitant to shoot back before launching, like next to a mosque or in a densely populated neighborhood. And typically they'll "shoot and scoot," launch and then drive off before any counter-battery fire could reach them.
We know where the rockets come from almost the instant they are launched. The problem is they set the rockets on timers. By the time they launch the insurgents are long gone. Same with mortars.
Probably mobile and will be gone by the time the eyes in the sky focus in on them...Perhaps they can and will target Iranian military installations in Iraq along with the local headquarters that control those installations...Concentrate more on leadership...
I would think that the US has radar that can track them from a hundred feet above the rooftops and calculate the launch point and then automatically program, load and fire a mortar withing 5 seconds.
“Can’t they identify where the Rockets are being launched and destroy the place?”
radar-guided counter-battery fire has been available since the end of WWII, so i assume they’re not doing this because the rockets are being fired from hospitals or schools full of children and Moslem “Nuns” (if such a thing exists) ...
We have counter artillery and and can easily track incoming and immediately send out massive hell. The problem is that the scum will launch from neighborhoods and by the time chain of command and lawyers decide a response is “legal”,they are gone.
Back in the 80’s, before counterfire radar really got big, we had counterfire specialists - either through forward observers or through microfones we were able to pinpoint enemy fire through triangulation. Radar made us obsolete, but if needed, call me!
