Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

[jamal18]

They can try continuous strikes until they run out of missiles

The U.S itself is a military behemoth, but the U.S is on the opposite side of the world it can only project so much power

So once the carriers and support ships run short they will need to dock and their is no safe space in the region,

Diego Garcia is a 3-4 day sail, then time to stock and then 3-4 day sail back and that's if you don't count how tired the crew will be and any rest time in between



The same with the interceptors, at the moment their are multiple assets trying to process Israel
But if iran can keep going then their comes a point where Iran will have free pick of targets



The real question is how many missiles does Iran have
Is all manufacturing of missiles secure and under ground

For Israel and U.S it's a race to try and force Iran to submit and destroy as many TELS and missiles as they can before they themselves become too tired

Even the journey to and from Iran is massive for pilots


All Iran has to do is play for time

Bombing Tehran, while painful to watch, has no military benefit.

Looking forward to better news from Iran, inshallah.

No
This is a case of friendly fire and the F-15Es were on a pattern for base. So they turned down(not off) their EW and other systems under the assumption they are approaching home base.

This happened to the Superhornet shootdown as well in the earlier engagement. The jets are slowing down, low on fuel so basically they are both not expecting this and also sitting ducks.

That’s why US invented NCTR!



“A radar technology used to identify aircraft at long range (typically within 25 nautical miles) without relying on transponder signals, often by analysing Jet Engine Modulation (JEM) from fan blades.

They are attacking state facilities like police, ammo depots etc to encourage rebellion and also lay the foundation for the next stage in which they arm domestic groups in an insurgency.

Dude was being hypothetical, in his defence.

I think if he ever looked at his belly he would realize he got bigger issues than Iran US conflict...
He ought to be figuring out what kind of food and health issues brought him to this physical stage...
He should be defending himself against food first.....

 

[Mero]

There are videos of IRGC developments, they were training FPV explosives drones. So yes, if israelis, americans or other subrogates wants to taste a land invasion good luck with that.

US is going to use EW to disrupt drones, so only effective against areas that are not attacked with EW. Faraday cage drones are better, though the copper wire could be susceptible/vulnerable to EW.

He is right but also wrong. Only a jeet can achieve such a state of metaphysical duality.

A balanced and very well written analysis of Iran situation.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026...rategy-how-it-has-changed-since-june-2025-war

What is Iran’s military strategy? How has it changed since June 2025 war?
Defence analysts tell Al Jazeera that Iran has revised its military strategy since 12-day war with Israel.

The gist - “The Iran-Israel theatre is testing Washington’s ability to align its National Defense Strategy with limited public appetite for another open‑ended Middle Eastern conflict,” Phillips said. “So the US is likely to aim for a contained, deterrence‑focused campaign rather than an indefinite high‑intensity war. Their catalyst for stopping will be the political will of allies and how much sway they can hold over the next supreme leader.”

Any strategy that relies on the will and appetite of the American people is not a wise strategy, that is for sure.

Well, one can twist the story many ways, but still pretty embarrassing........if not for USAF definitely for the Kuwaitis that they couldn't identify USAF jets? Do they not have that data linking and IFF? I thought the IFFs were a pretty common thing on board all USAF jets to prevent incidents like these and all USAF and mostly US supplie systems in GCC should be networked, no?

But once the interceptors were launched, didn't the F-15 RWR systems notify and launch counter measures? This episode proves another thing that happened with SPECTRA on rafales........it is extremely difficult to get out of a lock of a fast incoming missile......self protection seems more like "........dil behlane ke liye Ghalib khayal acha hai....."....if you are being painted by active/SARH missiles and your intercept coordinates are precise then chances of you evading it is very very slim.

No wonder PAF is upgrading its own IFFs on the F-16s, because in highly contested battlespace you never know who you are gonna mistake.

But it seems Kuwaitis have gotten a flavor of battlespace management from Indians.........not sure if that's a good thing or bad...

I am hoping we can no longer need F-16s, with Chinese J-10CE beings the alternative.

The Chinese will have to find a way of taking care of themselves as do others.

China has massive strategic oil reserves, the most in the world in fact.

China gets most of its oil from Russia through pipelines.

Iran will not target Chinese ships.

China is supporting Iran 100 from behind the scenes.

Good point. India was created by the British. Just like United States.

What is actually wrong with them? They expect others to take them seriously when they do such bizarre things publicly?
