Editor's Notes
- IAF learned a number of lessons during the Yom Kippur War. The main lesson learnt was that the absolute superiority enjoyed in aerial combat was not sufficient for achieving air superiority where an existence of solid AD system.
- Pre-Emption. Pre-emption is to seize the opportunity, often fleeting, before the enemy does, in order to deny him an advantageous course of action. The pre-emption was well executed by the Israelis by deciding to initiate a military response against the strengthening of Syrian AD coverage in the BEQQA valley by initiating ‘operation Mole Cricket 19’. It prevents Syrians taking an advantageous position by relocating their ground based AD system which could limit the freedom of the Israeli to utilize their own airspace.
