MIT Professor Ted Postol has repeatedly said in recent interviews that US and Israeli air defense systems, especially Patriot, have no real capability against Iranian ballistic missiles. He claims the actual intercept rate is 2 or 3 percent based on video evidence from the current war, not the official 90 percent figures. He states that if Iran launches large ballistic missile attacks again, there is nothing the US or Israel can do to stop them. This matches multiple appearances in June and July 2026. Official military claims of high success rates remain the public position, and interceptor stockpiles are under heavy strain according to other analyses.
