Scott Ritter: Israel, Iran Attack
Scott makes a good point that even if Israel fired a nuclear Jericho missile at Iran, because the Jericho is a ballastic missile traveling a ballastic trajectory, Iran would probably be able to shoot it down using the S-400 anti-missile systems Russia gave Iran.
Scott gets nearly everything right except he’s not aware that Russia, China and Iran have operational hypersonic missile systems with collision avoidance programming that automatically changes course at hyperspeed - making it virtually impossible to shoot down.
The U.S. and Israel have no such operational hypersonic missile systems and have no anti-hypersonic defensive systems.
The U.S. wasted over $2 TRILLION on the failed F-35 fighter jet program and ended up giving many of our taxpayer-funded F-35 jets to Israel.
