Re: Israel Launches Super Spy Satellite With Eyes On Iran.
Through use of soviet/russian technology, let's not forget that. They would be nothing without that.
I think this war really hit the nail in the coffin of the deadly devastation that could be caused by Soviet SAMs. I remember seeing a program on History Channel and it said that US really started working hard on stealth technology after the 73 debacle. Too bad, the logistic support that US was able to provide to the Israelis as well the overexcited? Egyptian military's overshot of their SAM coverage didn't decide the war in the Egyptian's favor.
Strategically speaking, the war wasn't that bad for Egypt as though it lost it, it gained respect of Israel and got Sinai back.
