They are Iranian missiles developed to destabilise the middle east, yet the world is silent to this rising beast from the East. @UN

Time for the Saudi's to fast-track their purchase of the Russian S-400 system.https://twitter.com/AlSuraEnglish/status/978019526074810369?s=19 …

Really? https://www.quora.com/Why-dont-NATO-countries-have-air-defense-systems-like-the-Russian-S-400 … You'll at leas find that patriot system is actually better in this kind of warfare - intercepting missiles - than Russia's s400.

Countries buying S-400 : Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, India, Pakistan, Qatar, etc., etc. Good bye USA http://nationalinterest.org/blog/the-buzz/russias-s-400-way-more-dangerous-you-think-24116 … https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/12/04/world/middleeast/saudi-missile-defense.htmletc … Patriot fails on a regular basic. THAAD at 200km range and Mach8 just doesn't cut it. And Aegis failed two out of three tests.

The Russian system isn't widely used. This recent event in Saudi suggest a high target-hit ratio.

Now they are finding out that Patriot was not meant to intercept TMB with separating warheads. Patriot has a range of 150km with a speed of Mach8 - perfectly OK for Qassam firecrackers. But now let's take a Yars, Sarmat or Hwasong-15 -- how is it going to catch ICBM doing Mach20?

Be realistic. The missile system was commissioned from the 90s or so. Yes, there would be missiles out there that are going to outperform. I think your original post was a bit reactionary given that it shot down all 7 missiles. (I am here by the way and a Westerner)
-
No - it never shot down all seven. At least one of the Patriot went off course and exploded on the ground in Riyadh itself -- at least one TBM got through too. https://twitter.com/ArmsControlWonk/status/978102936839467009 …https://twitter.com/Ghost21_SNA/status/978038335175307264 …

Its all hyped up effort to put Iran in the corner. The House of Saud is following a plan orchestrated by Israel and Trump that will cause tremendous upheaval to eventually destroy the Kingdom as we know it today. Sadly double Zeros don’t get it!
