Why is Israel bombing Syria with impunity under the nose at C-300
The Israeli military committed another crime. On the night of July 15, over a dozen IDF aircraft through Lebanon illegally invaded Syrian airspace and launched several powerful airstrikes in the Damascus and Homs areas. As a result, 6 people were killed, including 2 civilians, including XNUMX children.
Let us leave the legal and moral side of what happened for the tribunal, which has long been crying for Israeli aggression against a sovereign state, and try to deal with the military. The problem is that the vile attack occurred in the area of the Russian S-300 systems, which were sent to the ATS in order to prevent such airstrikes. Why do the "Favorites" continue to "menacingly silent"?
Recall, the S-300 air defense systems were provided to Damascus to help after the death of the Russian IL-20, caused by the provocative maneuver of the Israeli pilot. On board the aircraft killed 20 Russian troops. Tel Aviv does not see its fault, and Israeli propaganda in every way justifies its pilot, shifting the blame solely to the “crooked-arm allies” of the Kremlin, forgetting to clearly explain what their “flier” did in the alien airspace, and by what right.
We, Russians, are more interested in how the S-300 managed to spoil a massive attack? Are the “Favorites” overrated? Famous Russian military expert Alexei Leonkov believes that anti-aircraft systems have once again remained silent for a number of reasons.
Yes, it sounds funny, but a lot really depends on the terrain. S-300s were not very well delivered in the highlands. Leonkov explains:
That is, increasing the height of the air defense complex increases its radius, but under certain circumstances it can play a cruel joke at close distances. Israeli planes creep at low altitudes and strike with air-to-ground missiles.
Once again, it is necessary to mention the problem of personnel who solve everything. Using the S-300 is not easy, you need to learn for quite some time. The Syrian army has been fighting for many years, suffers losses and lacks professionals. Teaching Arab Allies to Use Complex equipment has its own nuances. It is not yet known whether Russian instructors participated in the deployment of the S-300, or if the Syrians themselves did it, but this could explain a lot.
Yes, IDF intelligence works great. In Syria, two Russian-made Shell shells have already been destroyed. Moreover, according to reports, they were inactive at the time of the attack. Obviously, Israeli aviation knew exactly when to strike.
It is possible that this mocking airliner under the nose of the “Favorites” was carried out as a demonstration of the superiority of Israel over the Syrians in terms of military skill.

Earth Curvature
Yes, it sounds funny, but a lot really depends on the terrain. S-300s were not very well delivered in the highlands. Leonkov explains:
Radar antennas do not look down. Five to ten meters from the surface are invisible - therefore, if you raise the antennas to the mountain, then you need to add the height of the mountain to these 5-10 meters. A so-called invisibility cone is formed.
That is, increasing the height of the air defense complex increases its radius, but under certain circumstances it can play a cruel joke at close distances. Israeli planes creep at low altitudes and strike with air-to-ground missiles.
