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

[Meengla]

Their main focus seems blind the enemy, now old Kamazaki flying in the region at will.............seems they worked alot before this Israeli war.

A little off topic but the entire world should fear a nightmare of large numbers of cheap Kamikaze drones crossing international borders...
I should GTFO to some Pacific island before SHTF!

Depends how many interceptors they have and how many interceptors they spend per missiles.

Some videos they are launching 6+ interceptors. That’s not sustainable and can’t be used on 200 missiles that’s over 1200 interceptors. Zero chance they have that many. I’d guess in low hundreds maximum.




Iron dome can be replenished and the interceptor is cheap (25-75K). It’s basically an artillery shell with a small booster attached to it and a guidance seeker.

Hamas fired 5000+ rockets in a week and couldn’t deplete the reserves. The old Hezbollah could, but it’s been weakened a lot since 2024

You don't need to deplete the reserves because they aren't going to deploy them all. They will commence on a ground invasion instead + carpet bomb enemy territory to disable launching capacity.

Hamas did successfully overwhelm Iron Dome layered defense in both May 2021 and October 2023 conflicts until Gaza was rapidly carpet bombed and Israeli forces invaded two days later. There's plenty of rockets in Gaza there wasn't a chance to deploy them.

The purpose of iron Dome is to decrease costs. They will not dip through reserves except to protect Tel Aviv area. Other areas they will just allow smaller shorter range rockets to go through while commencing on a ground invasion. The cost goes up at that point and Iron Dome served its purpose to decrease cost.

Hezbollah has capacity to do same 100 rocket barrage on northern areas in Israel on daily basis. It guarantees 20% of rockets get through if not more. Because the iron Dome is spread out evenly across country except in Tel Aviv + critical infrastructure and military bases.

The reason Hezbollah doesn't do it every night is because Israel targets Lebanese civilians in response and threatens to target Lebanese state infrastructure. Because material cost for Israel goes up.

And Israelis want to set precedent that they'll murder civilians or target critical infrastructure in other nation if their material cost goes up.

In future wars with Israel, with any nation or party, they have to have a solution for that Israeli strategy to control escalation dominance.

Hamas did not need to this to this Israeli attempt for escalation dominance which worked in Gaza's favor many times despite being risky as Israel commenced on two ground invasions of Gaza in 2008 and 2014, then didn't after that. It worked well up to 2023. That's the strategy Hezbollah seems to be slowly adopting. All Hezbollah needs to do is not carry out Toofan Al-Aqsa like military reprisal.

However Israel is playing a card of targeting Lebanese government infrastructure and Hezbollah wants to keep Lebanese government happy, which is why they've had to constrain themselves a bit as opposed to Hamas which was the government in Gaza and was under attack anyway so it didn't matter

Iranian air defenses destroyed a U.S. bunker-busting cruise missile in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province

Good news. Now the requirement is to mass produce this short range air defense system against cruise missiles. Replacability and low cost would be as important as effectiveness. If aesa radar is too expensive to produce , a monopulse radar would do the job within 20km range fairly enough coupled with infrared guided missiles that can lock on after launch or command to line of sight guided missiles.

Well so far we haven’t run out of gas in south Florida

And we are still waiting to see new drones in action, most commonly used shahed 136 is a decade old tech. There are many new toys available with irgc..

Waiting to see this mean boy in action specially

The US will not run out of gas, it will just be a lot more expensive.

India, Japan, Europe however, that’s a different story.

Okay false news we know Bibi.is actually 6 feet under but why does Israel need help countering drones when no drones are hitting its targets with their success rates one is the obvious answer sending fighter jets and attack helicopters isn’t possible 24/7 another reason iron dome isn’t as amazing as they make it out to be in real time war and lastly interceptors are being thrown at drones that are cheaper than their Iranian counterparts that Hezbollah is firing if they can hit them I can imagine 2 to 6 being shit at for one

Mostly yes. US brags about attacking 6000+ targets and Israel brags about 2000+ targets.

So unless they want to start going after more and more civilian targets they are just hitting the same things over and over. Not my analysis this is actual analysis from former military officers.

If airstrikes and bombings could win a war then Russia would have conquered all of Ukraine by now.

Iran is in an existential war with a battered economy that’s been under 20 years of sanctions and 45+ years of U.S. embargo. It’s got nothing to lose vs the rich Arabian sheik economies and the “great” economies of the West.

The US hasn't targeted Iranian Oil infrastructure nor has it struck at the pillars of the Iranian economy. Bridges, dams, power grid are yet to go down. If you don't think Iran has anything to lose then you are mistaken.

Smaller jet powered with shorter detection time is a plus

This one is not jet powered, piston one hence the lawnmover sound. Iran has not used these doritos with jet engine yet.(atleast no visible evidence)

They will surely come Into play along with more other fancy beasts..

Yeah I was just joking………I do that a lot if you haven’t noticed
