The IAF hit a Syrian radar post near the country’s northern border with Turkey on September 6, knocking out Syria’s entire radar system as prelude to striking a suspected nuclear reactor, Aviation Week & Space Technology is reporting in its November 26 edition.
The radar site was hit with a combination of electronic attack and precision bombs to allow the IAF to enter and exit Syrian airspace unobserved, the report said.
Subsequently all of Syria’s air-defense radar system went off the air for a period of time that encompassed the raid.
