Iranian Foreign & Resistance Front Strategy & Operations

But why would Iran do the attack from underground bases? It wasn"t at war and its aerial supremacy wasn't threatrned

Real life Test of Salvo rotation capability from Missile bases

For Generation 1 ‘silo bases’: it’s a wartime Performance test of Silo base crews
 
Iran sent BMs over Jerusalem. So yes they can theoretically do this. Will they? I’m not sure. They are trying to avoid mass casualties.
Ok, What is our equivalence of David's Sling, Arrow/THAAD, And Iron Dome?

Arrow/THAAD -
  • Arman ABM (not fully operational)
  • a BM size interceptor that was seen years ago and theorized to be an Anti-Sat/AWAC/ABM interceptor, I forgot what it was called I think it had the word “hoda” in it.

David Sling/Patriot -
  • Bavar 373
  • 3vome Khordad,
  • Mehran,
  • 15 Khordad,
  • Tatical Sayyad
  • Talash
  • Etc.

Now I'm interested in this missile.
 
Zoubin:

Zoubin is more like TOR-M1/M2/M3 than Iron dome. There isn’t really a system like Iron dome anywhere else in the world. Iron Dome is mostly for intercepting low tech unguided rockets.
 
Now I'm interested in this missile.

Alam Al Hoda w/unknown missile


No one knows what happened to this project. It has never been seen outside of this poster and vague references. I like to think this was a prototype Iranian ASAT/ABM/Anti-AWAC missile.

My theory is this was the predecessor to recently unveiled Sayyad-4

So Iran has two complementary systems (Dezful and Zoubin) or basically the same capability?

Dezful is direct copy of TOR-M1 on a truck chassis. I’m skeptical it exists in mass production form.

Zoubin is an Iranian SHORAD using VLS and a AESA. High capability, but expensive.

There are 6 Iranian SHORAD projects: Dezful, Nawab (Naval SHORAD), Majid, Zoubin, Dey 1&2. Plus a rumored Pantsir version.

Other than Majid and Nawab. There is no indications that Dezful, Dey, Zoubin are being mass produced and fully operational yet.
