Iran said it attacked U.S. bases without using GPS

Brigadier General Masoud Jafari, deputy commander of the Iranian Air Force, stated that during the strikes on U.S. military bases, the Iranian Air Force did not use GPS or inertial navigation, relying solely on paper maps.

According to him, the absence of navigation and radio signals worked to their advantage, and the pilots’ surprise and determination enabled them to carry out their combat missions.

At the same time, a number of media outlets report that U.S. military bases in the Middle East sustained significant damage during the conflict. According to their reports, runways, radars, aircraft, warehouses, command posts, and other infrastructure were hit. It is also claimed that one of the Iranian aircraft managed to strike a U.S. base in Kuwait.
