NEW DETAILS: The extent of damage in IDF Iran Attack

The extent of the damage caused by the Israeli attack in October 2024 on some of the air defense sites in Iran and their operational status as of today.

Updated satellite images from the Ahvaz, Ilam, Shahroud and Tehran provinces of the Iranian air defense sites reveal that the Iranians were unable to reactivate most of the sites.

This is the current status of some of the sites that were attacked and is based on intelligence available online from Iranian sources:

MEHRABAD AIR DEFENSE SITE

Based on the most recent satellite image of this defense site, PT85TE2 vehicles carrying S-300 system launchers appear to be removed from their deployment location and in a non-operational state. It also appears that the 30N6E2 radar for cooperation and fire control has been removed from its deployment location, and the 64N6E2 target identification and battlefield management radar has been deployed in its place.

However, there is no change in the status of the 96L6E detection and interception radar. In any case, it can be said that the aforementioned site was in an inactive state when the photo was taken.

KAHRIZAK AIR DEFENSE SITE

According to the latest available satellite image of this defense site, the PT85TE2 vehicles carrying the S-300 system launchers (except for one launcher) have left their deployment location. It also appears that the 30N6E2 radar for identification and fire control has left its deployment location. The 30N6E2 radar can be seen in a non-operational state and under a camouflage net.

The 64N6E2 target acquisition and battlefield management radar has also left its deployment site. However, by observing the 96L6E detection and interception radar antenna, it appears that the aforementioned radar is in operational mode.

Also, in the southern part of this defensive site, two 96L6E detection and interception radars are observed in a "folded" and non-operational state. In any case, and in the absence of launch vehicles and the absence of operational radars at this air defense site, it can be said that the aforementioned site was in a non-operational state when the photo was taken.

DEFENSE SITE IN ISLAMSHAHR

The above-mentioned site was equipped with the MIM-23 Hawk defense system until the release of a satellite image on October 30. Based on the satellite image of October 30 (4 days after the attack), it was determined that the Hawk launchers had been dismantled from the site, and two PT85TE2 launchers of the S-300PMU-2 system, along with a 30N6E2 fire control and integration.

A radar and a communications relay vehicle, were deployed at the Islamshahr site. According to the latest available image, these launchers are still at the site, but the 30N6E2 engagement radar is not visible in its location (however, the generators are in place). The site is operational.

EARLY WARNING RADAR IN AHVAZ

According to the image above, after the attack on the site's generator/control center buildings, the buildings and the radar receiver/transmitter platform of this radar site were dismantled, and accordingly, as of the date of recording of this satellite image, the Qader Ahvaz radar site is in a non-operational state.

ERAN MALKA ADDS:

It is important to note that although these are fairly recent satellite images (from the last month) and the reorganization in which the Iranians are engaged should not be taken lightly.

IMHO Israel should move in and finish the job BEFORE someone refurbishes or replaces this equipment and it becomes a lost opportunity

That's the Israeli advantage: IQ and weapons over moronic old world wishful thinking apes.
