Oct 28, 2024 19:34 IST Israel striked Iran. A total of 100 fighter jets carried out the attacks in three waves on 20 missile and drone facilities of Iran. For the strikes, Israel deployed its fifth generation F-35 Adir fighter jets, F-15I Ra'am ground attack jets, and F-16I Sufa air defence jets, which covered approximately 2,000 kilometres. Such long-distance strikes require refueling capabilities and a rescue unit was kept on high alert. The weapons of choice were the 'Rampage' long-range, supersonic missile and the 'Rocks' next generation extended stand-off air-to-surface missile. The Israeli army focused strictly on military targets and steered clear of targeting nuclear and oil facilities to prevent a wider conflict escalation. The first wave of attacks was on Iran's radar and air defence facilities, clearing the path for following strikes on military bases. Iran's missile and drone facilities were targeted in the second and third wave. The fighter jets carried out the strikes in groups of 25-30. While 10 jets conducted the coordinated missile strikes, the others provided cover and diversion. During the strikes, called 'Operation Days of Repentance', Israeli and US air defences were on high alert to handle retaliatory missile strikes. (Source: India Today)
