8. I imagine damaged missiles are being repaired

as they can be. Parts from other damaged or destroyed ones are being salvaged. And it seems likely where storage tunnels were bombed, efforts are being made to excavate the debris.

Experience shows that much war industry work continues in the midst of war zones, see Ukraine today, or London or North Vietnam or Stalingrad from earlier wars.

I believe we are in for a hell of a fight, with an opponent with thousands of years of experience behind them, and we are led by imbeciles and a purged senior military.
