I just asked if we have a video where we can see the impacts, you said yes but so far I didn't see it

I rather see a video than speculate on images. on another note, I am surprised there are no visible missile craters in these images

The video is in the article and you can reconstruct the scene yourself

I saw the video, it shows 3-6 impacts but at different timing so it is hard to say for sure they are different impacts

a lot of the missiles were launched simultaneously but here we don't see more than 2 impacts within at least 10 seconds of each other

The video is terribly edited for some reason and should have shown only from the drone angle like the Dimona test, this is exceptional accuracy for 2000km range liquid fueled missiles

But i do not see indications of terribly editing it for propaganda purposes such as showing 3 times the same hit, at the start we see it all, then it is pretty much all destroyed beside the two at the below left

Using the missile impact as a point of reference that it doesn't completely destroy nearby warehouses in one shot besides the one that hit in the middle of the two at the right, using the damage sound cues and damage done would tell at least 6 impacts

Going from this

To this


Is unimaginable for only 3 missiles using the damage done at the center and top right for example

Also the sulfur is hiding one of the middle warehouse (unless it has been completely destroyed by another missile), this may explain why no craters are visible

1300km not 2000km

I agree the video is edited terribly but what can we expect they also named the wrong airbase in Israel

and honestly I am underwhelmed with that destructive impact of supposedly 1000kg warheads impacting at mach 5

my personal theory: many of the missiles missed their targets (by how far I don't know, maybe not that far, but that's normal because CEP of 20m means 50% of them are supposed to land further than 20m away from the target)

Using measuring theorem with shadows, the distance between the below and the top warehouses is very close to 1km to 1.5km

Therefore the explosion seems to have a blast radius of 200m and a sonic boom of nearly 600m which is enormous

These are clearly more powerful than a mk 1ton bomb dropped due to the speed of the missile

Don't be fouled by the camera, it is very far away from the site, the explosions are massive

20 CEP is more than good for a missile carrying such a payload, even the original CEP claim wad 5m, even 30m is more than good

mach 2 impact velocity for Kheybar Shekan / Haj Qasem

mach 4-5 impact velocity for Emad/Ghadr

smaller Fateh class impact velocity may even be subsonic

Damn so good, Matej, this guy will sleep much better, 4,26 mach, you can go for a walk with the family by any kibbutz.

to me it illustrates trade off between manoeuvrability and impact velocity and where Iran is on that level now

we don't know how much the Kheybar Shekan actually manoeuvred in this test, but with impact velocity of only c. mach 2, hopefully a lot

curious to know impact velocity of Fattah-1/2, Sejjil and Khorramshahr

I guess Khorramshahr > Sejjil > Fattah-1 > Fattah-2

Pataremes should stop posting delusional hopium 24/7 for years on end and try to acknowledge reality once in a while

multiple (at least 3) Haj Qasem missiles failed shortly after launch in the recent test launches, possibly due to import of sabotaged faulty parts from abroad

once again IRGC commanders lied to everyone and said all the missiles succeeded and others were boasting of 0% failure rate ("No malfunction in 8 launches")

now we understand better why the leadership wants to avoid war with Israel at all costs

(EDITED START:
Ignore. The author was corrected on this same issue. Frankly I’m surprised he even made this outrageous comment in the first place.

I left this post in place to highlight that an object cannot make a reverse course maneuver without EXTREME reverse thrusts. Not even a free falling ping pong ball let along an HGV.
EDITED END)

I’m looking at these maneuvers and the physics don’t make sense. How can an object diving at 7-8 Mach basically have its downward vertical vector reduced to zero and subsequently move up and then down again? The only way I can imagine is reverse thrust. What gives? Is the imagery just a trick of the eye?

wonder why they still accept the risk of buying from foreign vendors
