broncepulido Posted February 10, 2018 Report Posted February 10, 2018 Probably shoot-down by very long range SAM (S-400?) when chasing after Iranian drones: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-43014081 Quote
CV32 Posted February 12, 2018 Report Posted February 12, 2018 If I had to guess, I would say SA-17. Israel attacked SA-5 and SA-17 sites after the shootdown. Meanwhile, which of you sleuths can identify this missile that fell into Lebanon? I see command link antennas on those tail fins, and I am thinking SAM. Quote
Palex80 Posted February 12, 2018 Report Posted February 12, 2018 Possibly a SA-6 Gainful missile? Quote

broncepulido Posted February 12, 2018 Author Report Posted February 12, 2018 Yes, also for me a SA-6: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/46/2P25_TEL_2K12_Kub_system_Rear_View_2017-12-24.jpg Quote
CV32 Posted February 26, 2018 Report Posted February 26, 2018 The February 2018 Air War Between Israel, Syria and Iran Was Brief and Violent (War is Boring) Lots of detail in this article, including consensus that the F-16I was probably brought down by an SA-5. They appear to have fired plenty of them. Quote
