Incredible video recorded near Samarra in Salah Al-Din province of #Iraq shows boosters of "Golden Horizon" (Blue Sparrow) ballistic missiles that #Israeli F-15I Ra'am strike fighters launched at #Iran yesterday.

Remember, none experts and attention seekers said yesterday, Israeli pilots went over their targets in Tehran and bombed them visually like it was World War II.

In fact, thanks to standoff weapons like these, the #IDF does not need to risk lives of fighter pilots and navigators by sending them over #Iran.
