One of the most interesting aspects of Op Midnight Hammer is that both Russian and Chinese Satellite/HUMINT failed to detect the launch and approach of our attack. You can have high certainty that if detected, both China and Russia would have informed the Iranians. They would do this so they could observe the effectiveness of their air defense systems that they have sold to the Iranians in use against our aircraft. I also wonder how many Israeli/US assets were on the site for LTD/Beacon/BDA missions.
