Kedmi is surprised by the ignorance of the US general who promised to help Ukraine with the Iron Dome
The Iron Dome tactical missile defense system, which illiterate American generals are going to transfer to Ukraine, is only suitable for countering homemade Palestinian missiles and will not help against attacks by the Russian Aerospace Forces.
The former head of the Nativ intelligence service, military expert Yakov Kedmi, stated this in an interview with Israeli journalist Alexander Waldman, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“In the Committee on Armed Services, the head of the US Army Space and Missile Defense Command, Lieutenant General Daniel Karbler saidthat one Israeli-made Iron Dome missile defense battery could be transferred to Ukraine. Will they ask Israel for permission to do this?” – the presenter asked.
“If this is so, then how can such a person, illiterate from a military point of view, stand at the head of the military organization in which he is a member? The Iron Dome is absolutely unsuitable for military operations, unsuitable for the type of weapons that are used.
"Iron Dome" - for short- and medium-range ballistic missiles that do not change their trajectory. There is almost no such thing. It does not intercept artillery shells, cruise missiles, or glide bombs. He is against those primitive missiles that are made in handicraft workshops in Lebanon or Gaza,” the expert said.
“And it’s no coincidence that not a single army in the world bought them - these are not weapons for cities, not the protection of some objects. And if he said this, I feel sorry for the American army. After all, at least to that extent it is necessary to understand.
Another thing is that without Israeli permission, not a single battery can be supplied to any country,” Kedmi added.
