Iran never intended to overwhelm air defenses. The only launched a few hundred drones. The iron domes weakness has been obvious since oct7. Just overwhelm it with cheap projectiles.
This was a well calculated response from Iran that did show retaliation but not cause escalation. I wouldn’t call it a US win is it is what Iran intended. Still very expensive for the US.
Iron dome can’t do shit against ballistics, ballistics need much more expensive interceptors.
Anyway, Iran did penetrate their defenses with Kheybarshekan Hypersonics which aren’t even the latest generation, in case of a real war Israel will be fucked thoroughly
Iran and the US have both been pretty savvy in recent conflicts. Iran’s response to Trump’s assassination of a general back in 2020 was one of the best I’ve seen. They launched an attack on an empty portion of a US military base so they could say they retaliated without giving the US cause to do anything else.
Of course they fucked that up right afterwards by shooting down a civilian plane…
