Apparently Iran's strategy for dealing with the Iron dome? (hexbear.net)

I've read something on twitter about how apparently recently Iran finally used like one of their modern rockets and dealt major damage to Israel; apparently they were using their old, 20-30 year old missiles to overwhelm the iron dome and then after getting rid of Israel's iron dome, they'll use their newest tech.

Actually pretty well thought out.

Yeah, those videos where they show just one of the magazines and it's like miles of tunnels filled to the ceiling with missiles. They have an absurd stockpile. I've heard a lot of the old ones don't even have warheads so they just function as decoys. But every one of the Iron Dome missiles will be loaded with a warhead.

Western missile production is bonkers low. Not that it can't be ramped up, but they routinely run out.
