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

[j_hungary]

The F-35's infrared signature is optimized to delay medium/long range detection. This means it is vulnerable at short range. The idea is to dissipate / disperse heat quickly by mixing the hot exhaust with ambient cold air so an IR receiver at 60 miles can't see those emissions. However, this makes it very visible at short range a design trade off since the F-35 isn't meant to get close to the enemy.

Stealth is not that you can't see them in Radar, stealth is basically lowering their emission and having the signature mimic something else. Like a plane can be disguised as a bird if you limit its emissions.

Problem is, if you know, from experience, that is where that stealth fighter is going to appear, because either they repeat the same route or you have prior information knowing this will happen, then you can lock into it regardless of range, because you will know that is not a bird, that was a fighter jet, and you can lock on it

by the way, that is how they shot down the F-117 back in Bosnia

I’ve seen lots of posts on x claiming Russia is providing intelligence to Iran, and they told the US that they will stop providing intelligence if the US stops providing intelligence to Ukraine. Is this true?

The US has stopped intelligence sharing since Trump came to power.

What we know about the US decision to cut intelligence sharing with Ukraine

One expert says the CIA's move to stop sharing intelligence with Ukraine will have an instantaneous impact on the battlefield. Here's what we know.

www.abc.net.au

There are still private firms in the US sharing intel with Ukraine (like Maxar or Google), but no intel sharing at G2G level since March 2025.

Bet when they signed up for a cushy airline pilots job based in Dubai a few years ago they would not have known they would be flying from one war zone and landing in another on a flight....

Does Iran have any satellite kill rocket? If yes, they should take out some US satellites.

They do not, but max Surface to Air range is Sayyad-4B which TVCed interceptor of Bavar-373. Its range is close to 400 KM with 40 KM altitude. Probably it can hit a sat.

IRGC ASF did test two stage Surface to Air interceptor for exo-atmospheric interception some time ago. They never revealed its name.

I do not underestimate anything just learnt what their real capabilities are, in theory maximum AD missiles of each destroyer can field about 100 AD missiles, if you scramble task force of five or six of those it is several hundreds, how many drones and missiles can Iran rain on them, much more of those juicy targets which have several hundred people each onboard if you add sea mines, fast patrol boats with anti ship missiles which are in shelters now, droned one way fast boats, it is suicidal mission for us navy.

Those ships have very sensistve hull mounted sonars and can easily detect and avoid any mines. They also have an array of guns and helicopter cover that can deal with any usv and fast boat threat before it gets close enough. Drones are a bit tricky to deal with without expending lots of missiles but with enough emirates has shown how effective cuas can be in filtering through most of the threats and paired with CIWS and Gun based AD they wont be a major threat. Besides even if a drone or two hits they wont do any damage of note. The ballistic and cruise missile threat is the easiest to counter as those are threats which require dedicated missiles and for those the sm-2/3/6s will be more than capable of handling.

Iran has thousands of anti ship threats but it cannot launch them at once the numbers i provided are based on what i believe iran can continue to throw out despite prowling hostile airforces bombarding their sites. Running the strait without softening up irans capability further is not advisable and without a solid plan is suicide but it is inherently possible for them to run the Strait with enough planning to get to kharg island

At These long ranges only warheads with dirty bomb can inflict real pain. CEP is going to be 4-5kms.

Such missiles are for nuclear delivery and nothing else considering cost/target-value ratio. Throwing some 1-2 tonne warheads on three solid stages will be a waste of money.

As for CEP. It depends what RV they use. If they go for Ghaem with K-4's Re-entry (itself an IRBM) vehicl which is a Post Boost Vehicle with radial thrusters, it can hit a CEP less than 20M. They have demonstrated that multiple times with tests. But again ICBMs are not for this. job.

Those measures are all counter measured easily by iranians and americans already concluded that, otherwise we would already saw that operation.
You over hype their defensive abilities those are projected for random and small intensity threats not for overwhelming saturation waves of drones and missiles, please do not reply me whit another response to persuade me in contrary i just wanted to try explaining you how many dead ends for such attempt are certain, if you want to stick with your opinion it is also fine but it is not realistic one in terms of field military realities.

The Zionist regime is preparing to use false flag tactics

The Zionist regime, which has a record of attacking many mosques during the Gaza war, has recently falsely expressed concern about the possibility of being hit in the areas surrounding Al-Aqsa Mosque!

This is while a well-informed source in the Ministry of Information announced a while ago that the Zionist regime, following the sharp increase in the popularity of the Islamic Republic of Iran among the Muslims of the region and the Muslim world due to its heroic stand against the attacks of the American-Zionist enemy, has decided to use the "false flag" tactic and intends to use a drone or missile attack on the Al-Aqsa Mosque to identify Iran and the resistance front as the cause of the attack, and in this regard, gradually evacuate the Jews living in the surrounding areas.Al-Aqsa Mosque.
