We have a plane that is the successor to the U-2 that does this, and it flies too high and too fast to shoot down or catch.==
Russia too has missiles which goes the sinusoide path on hypersomic speeds in the stratosphere. Anyway the new russian airaircraft missiles catch them. Simple if AA missile goes 1 km/sec no airplane may get away of it. But even 20 years old S-200 could do it. That is why United States did never send no aircraft over Soviet Union.
Modern Russian S-400 missiles can go 3-5 km/sec in stratosphere. So you see.
Accualy new american ABM missiles may do same speed like S-400. SO no wonder that no airplane can get away.

As I’m reading this it would appear that the raid used a combination of tactics.
The Datastream that is mentioned may well have been a sidelobe injection to misdirect the analog systems.
the analog systems are more prone to getting hit by this.
doing the similar trick to a digital system entails literally getting inside of the other guys controll systems.
The reason the Syrians and Iraninans are pissed is it appears, key appears, that the raid was pulled with some combination of bunnies out of an unspecified hat.
The Russians tend to build reliable battlefield stuff but and here is the real drag they are hitting again,
against NATO std, western stuff the stuff doesn’t get the job done.
