Iran's New War Strategy: Targeting Radars, Satellites, Air Defenses in Middle East Conflict
•Iran has shifted its strategy in the Middle East conflict, now targeting radars, satellite communication systems, and air defenses instead of conventional military bases.
•This move aims to blind and deafen adversaries, weakening the "backbone of the Israel-US defense network," according to Iranian officials.
•Radars, like the AN/TPY-2 in the US THAAD system, are crucial for detecting missiles; targeting them prevents early interception of Iranian attacks.
•Satellite Communication (SATCOM) dishes are vital for troop coordination, and their destruction disrupts enemy communication.
•Air defense systems such as Patriot, THAAD, and Israel's Arrow intercept drones and missiles; their destruction gives Iran more leverage in attacks.
