#4 Hamas has had anti aircraft missiles since mid 2010.
IDF assets have been taking this into account in their maneuvering, targeting, etc. Big surprise is that Hamas has not used those missiles before.

#6 Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) has developed some of the most advanced airborne defensive systems in the world. We've got the AN/ALQ Countermeasures Set of systems. I'm not overly concerned.

#8 Northrop Grumman is the 'big dog' in the flares and MWS (missile warning measures) business. My facts are dated, but those individual flares used to cost about $125. each. Pretty costly when you see entire cans dumped in a photo demo.

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
