Following recent developments in the Middle East, the IDF believes: There is now an opportunity to attack the nuclear facilities in Iran.
Open Axis to Iran: The Air Force is concluding the operation to destroy Assad's army, and according to estimates - 86% of the Syrian air defense system has been destroyed. The meaning - Syria, which in the past was a significant threat to Air Force aircraft that were severely restricted from flying over its territory due to anti-aircraft threats, is now a much safer and more open airspace for flight.
The various security organizations - including the IDF - are currently carrying out a preparatory process between broad, intelligence and operational organizations, in order to provide the political echelon with the capabilities and the option of choosing whether to carry out an attack on the nuclear facilities.
Within the Syrian anti-aircraft system, which is considered the densest in the world and has fired hundreds of times at our aircraft in recent years, the Air Force has placed emphasis on the two most advanced systems, which managed to shoot down quite a few missiles that attacked Syria during the MABM period - the SA-17 system, of which 80% were estimated to have been destroyed, and the SA-22 system, of which 86% were destroyed.
