[IsraelTimes] ImageSat International says 3 of 4 launchers from powerful Russian anti-aircraft system appear ready for use; Israel has threatened to destroy battery if used against its jets.

The fourth launcher, which has not been seen in the raised position, does not appear to be operational, according to ISI.

The satellite imagery company said it was "possibly an invalid, dummy or a different element that serves as deception."

#3  Israel and Greece did a joint exercise a few years ago with the Grecian older S-300 systems.

Newer system probably has updates, though.

#2  While my Inner War Nerd is excited to see these babies in action, I suspect the Russians are reluctant to fire them up. Getting your state-of-the-art air defense system waxed by the Juice is bad salesmanship.
