Interesting articles about the conditions under which an Iranian air defence system may target an civilian airliner forbes.com/sites/jeremybo… #IranPlaneCrash #IranPlaneShootdown #Iran
You should read it but in short, the Iranian defence unit that is said to have fired at #PS752 is a Russian system known as
9K330 Tor-M1 (Nato: SA-15 Gauntlet).
This radar should be able to recognise the profile of an airliner, in terms of speed and signals emanating from it. Moreover, it should tell the operators that the plane was leaving Iran's airspace rather than coming in.
