> they will continue to hold their positions and fire some rockets at israel every day without orders or further plans? do you realize their supplies are going to run out eventually? it might have been all nice and dandy up until now but they're facing an invasion, if they won't adapt to this new situation then it's over for them. > the original plan was to ethnically cleanse gaza by kicking them out into sinai by egypt said no i find it difficult to believe what with 40k palestinians have died out of two million, but alright. what do you imagine they've planned to do with the ones in the west bank? push them into jordan? > if they would use all 3 types consistently with the intent to cause maximum damage they would succeed the drones and cruise missiles are irrelevant. it's very difficult to schedule and coordinate such an attack because a drone takes hours to make that distance while a ballistic missile takes around twelve minutes. that's why during the first attack almost all of them were intercepted outside israel's borders. therefore the only factor the matters is how many ballistic missiles you throw in during each wave. the one in april had 110-130 and didn't went through, and the one in october had 180 and it did went through partially. so it's something between those numbers that penetrate israel's air defence, even if slightly. you would have to throw in 200-250 missiles each wave to do something substantial. even if they did that each day for a month, that's 6-7.5k missiles which i doubt they even have. would israel manage to hold out for a single month? not without some damage, but yes. > you wouldn't be able to afford to keep your airbases evacuated because they would be needed to keep shooting down iranian cruise missiles and drones drone and cruise missiles can and are currently being dealt with using iron dome which sits on a truck, not with war planes.
