Got them on the back foot? I've literally seen live footage of THAADs and Israeli high value targets get smacked by hypersonic missiles daily from Iran.
Just like the Ukrainian war has shown, they most likely don't have enough munitions to "demolish Iran's everything". High intensity war burns through ammunition quick and alot of it is highly specialized and not manufactured in high qualities. Add to it that the west has been pouring all their available arms into their proxy war with Russia for the last three years and Israel is gonna be up shit's creak very soon.
They need the US to come in or they're gonna be in big trouble. If they could KO Iran by themselves they wouldn't be asking daily for the US to join the war.
My understanding is that the Israeli air force has achieved air supremacy, so yes.
If they're able to operate not only their fighters, but their aerial radar assets over Iranian territory, then they have EVERY reason to park overhead, wait for the launchers to show themselves, and then hammer them when they do.
