A high-ranking Venezuelan Air Force officer explained how a high-precision military operation managed to dismantle the air defense system protecting Caracas, allowing for direct action in the heart of the country’s political power.
According to the military, the operation was based on a combination of electronic warfare, precision attacks, and internal structural failures, which rendered the main radar and anti-aircraft defense systems inoperable. Among the key factors, he pointed out the weakness of the human factor, the lack of specialized training, and the dependence on foreign advice for the operability of the equipment.
The officer indicated that for weeks electronic data and radar signatures had been collected, allowing for the identification of critical vulnerabilities in the multi-layered defense network that protected the capital. This facilitated the neutralization of anti-aircraft batteries and strategic radars located in key areas of the center and coast of the country.
