Questions are growing about air-defence performance and stockpiles in the Gulf after footage cited by Military Watch Magazine purported to show U.S. Patriot (MIM-104) interceptors at Qatar’s Al Udeid Air Base missing an incoming Iranian missile despite multiple launches. The claims come amid wider reporting, including Bloomberg, warning that U.S., Israeli and Gulf partners’ ability to sustain defence against large Iranian salvos depends on interceptor “magazine depth,” which may already be dangerously low after heavy use in 2025. Separately, Iranian sources and aligned reporting have claimed the destruction of a U.S. AN/FPS-132 early-warning radar in Qatar, but some accounts indicate Qatar is still assessing damage rather than publicly confirming total destruction.
