Newly deployed photonic radars have been installed across the country. These systems detect aerial military targets by emitting and analyzing light and are said to be hard for enemy fighters to pick up. Much work has been undertaken in a short period to enhance defense and combat capabilities — many measures remain classified for military reasons. Nevertheless, I assert with confidence that, if another war with Israel breaks out, Iran will exact a heavy toll on the regime.
Israeli officials have described the 12-day campaign as the result of 16 years of intelligence work and almost a year of operational rehearsals, yet they failed to achieve their strategic aims against Iran. If Israel had truly reached its objectives, it would not have asked for a cease-fire after just 12 days. In effect, the Israelis were surprised by their own vulnerability and chose to halt the war.
Like Iran, Israel has since been trying to plug its military gaps. The United States supplied Israel with missile reserves — including THAAD interceptors — taken from stocks in other Arab countries, but replenishing those stocks is difficult because US production capacity for such interceptors is limited.
By contrast, during the 12-day confrontation Iran targeted five Israeli airports with missiles and struck ammunition depots and other logistical nodes, demonstrating the destructive reach of its missile force. These factors pose real problems for Israel in any future conflict with Iran.
Iranian military officials have stated that the Armed Forces employed only about 30% of their capabilities in that conflict — meaning many advanced weapon systems remain unused.
At this point, a renewed Israeli aggression on Iran cannot be ruled out, as the world has now seen the extent of the Zionist regime’s recklessness, which may very well lead to another act of madness. But they should know that any future war with Iran would come at an unbearable cost.
