US THAAD Radar System, Worth $300 Million, Obliterated By Iran

Описание: Iran has destroyed a key $300 million radar system crucial to directing US missile defense batteries in the Gulf that risks further straining the region's ability to counter future attacks, according to a US official.

Satellite photos show that an RTX Corp. AN/TPY-2 radar and support equipment - used by US THAAD missile defense systems - was destroyed at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan in the opening days of the war, CNN reported earlier, citing commercial satellite imagery. The destruction of the equipment was later confirmed by a US official.

Data gathered by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies think tank show two reported Iranian strikes in Jordan: one on Feb. 28 and one on March 3. Both were reported to have been intercepted.
