The Israel Defence Forces’ arsenal of Arrow anti-ballistic missiles is running increasingly thin, with longstanding suspicions regarding the state of the broader Israeli air defence arsenal having been confirmed by a U.S. official who spoke to the Wall Street Journal. After just five days of hostilities with Iran, which Israel initiated in June 13 with the launch of major air strikes against a range of targets in the country, the seriousness of missile defence shortages threatens to allow Iranian ballistic missiles to strike Israeli targets with growing success. On June 17 a separate source briefed on U.S. and Israeli intelligence cited by the the Washington Post noted that“the system is already overwhelmed,” and that Israeli air defences would need to be more selective regarding prioritising interceptions in future. Analysts have widely concluded that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has the ability to significantly escalate the scale of strikes on Israeli targets, and to begin to employ more advanced missile classes with greater success rates evading interception. The Corps on June 18 launched its first ever strike using the new Fattah ballistic missile, which is expected to be effectively impossible to intercept due to its use of a hypersonic glide vehicle.
