RUSSIANS SEND SYRIA NEW RADAR SYSTEM TO FOIL IDF

Report: Israeli Jets Foiled Russian Radar in Syria - Uzi Mahnaimi (Sunday Times-UK)
The Russians have sent technicians to upgrade Syria's air defense system after Israel foiled it using stealth technology to remain invisible during an airstrike. The Israeli air force used a sophisticated electronic warfare system operated by F-15I jets and a fleet of specialist electronic warfare aircraft over the Mediterranean during the attack on a suspected nuclear facility near Dayr az-Zawr on September 6. They transmitted signals that jammed the Russian-made radar and the Syrian army's communications.
