In a dramatic escalation, satellite imagery has confirmed that an Iranian ballistic missile directly struck and destroyed the main command and control radome at the U.S.-operated Al-Udeid Airbase in Qatar.
The strike contradicts earlier U.S. and Qatari military statements, which claimed the base sustained "no significant damage." However, new high-resolution imagery reveals the radome completely obliterated, and the radar equipment underneath burned and reduced to twisted metal.
📡 The Radome Was the Heart of Operations
Before its destruction, the radar housed under the dome played a critical role in air traffic control, command relay, and missile defense operations across the Persian Gulf. Damage to this installation represents a major disruption to U.S. capabilities in the region.
Photos taken immediately after the blast show the radar dish scorched and collapsed, with the entire protective dome shredded beyond repair.
🔥 Visual Proof: Not Just “Some Damage”
Despite Pentagon and Qatari claims of “minor impact,” the images tell another story — a picture of complete destruction. Critics on social media quickly called out the official line as “holy cope,” demanding accountability and transparency from military spokespeople.
🎯 What This Means for the Region
Al-Udeid Airbase is one of the largest U.S.
