This tread have been "boiling" in the last 72 hours because of those news. He has been reprehended by the parliament authority because spreading "Sensitive information" so... officially NO Mig29, NO S400, no papa, no mama no whiskey soda... :ROFLMAO: But something is moving behind the curtain. That is for sure.
 
Iran has no need for uranium enrichment if it's not going to build the bomb.
I agree with you at this point. It is not logical to keep this capacity if you won´t have the bomb... So au contrarie I think that Iran has a covert nuclear program. Everybody suspect it and IRI paid and will pay a heavy price because... feeding a half of dozen of nuclear reactors?.

And let me be clear. Maybe Khamenei is martyred because so in next some months. So or IRI government is completely crazy/stupids or really it is a checkmate to all regional status quo. I think second one. But that is just my oppinion, I really thought Israel would never attack and they did it.

Highly unlikely given Irans procurement cadence to date i suspect.
 
Good question, likely to throw away yet more money in their retarded half plans as IR likes to do. Just like all the other trainer and helicopter projects we saw.
Has anybody even seen these Yak-130 fighters?
I mean I have seen only 6 trainers so far. What are we going to do with 6 Yak-130 fighters?

The IR is not paying the price, Iranians are. Sanctions, as usual, hurt ordinary Iranians.

You think there's a master plan but I don't think there is one. In a country where +30 IRGC generals are killed in half an hour, where the session of the highest authorities of the country is bombed by Israel, where our top nuclear scientist is killed on his way back home, do you think they can keep our nuclear program secret? They failed to do that in 2003 and the level of infiltration back then was less than 1% that it is now.

Martyred? I wouldn't call him a martyr. To die as a martyr, you have to sacrifice your life for the country. That takes courage. Khamenei has shown no courage in my book. TP1, TP2 and even TP3 were weak responses. Khamenei even refused to declare war on Israel after Netanyahu declared war on Iran on Day 1.
 
That’s outdated news from 2000s. They build a lot of good stuff now. They’ve been building destroyers armed to the teeth at very fast speeds. Their artillery guns also got good reviews in Ukraine. They are also now making air to air missiles.

In return for helping Russia they will get a lot of tech transfer.
They really don't.

A lot of their technology isn't just rebranded or modified Chinese or Russian systems.

Their destroyers are not armed to the teeth, and don't have fast speeds

Their artillery is mostly vintage, or bought from Chinese stock.

Everybody shut up about migs and s400. Let's go back to complaining about no air force. Shh!! 🤣
 
I think the IRI has cost us more than 500 billion.....I don't want to scare you all, but the real number is in the trillions of dollars.
I've said this before in 1979, we we're exporting 5 mill+ barrels a day, Fast forward to now, we're a lot less than that, and we have to sell it at a discount, UAE was exporting 1.6 mill bpd, now, they're almost double that, and gas too. Qatar in 1979 was not exporting LNG, now it exports 79 million metric tons. Russia in 1979 3 mill bpd, today almost 5 mill bpd.....that's just the tip of the iceberg, the lost revenue, and then the investments that could've happened, the opportunity cost of that money never being made, and the market share that was taken by the other countries instead of us......can be trillions of dollars of lost revenue.
Estimated cost of 240 mill dollars lost per day, x 45 yrs is $3.94 Trillion dollars....and that's without compounding, or interest.
This is the amount the people of Iran have lost due to idiots and incompetent fools in charge. I wonder what Ghalibaf could've down to Tehran with that kind of money..... :)

And IRIAF has been running on 200-400 MlN USD/year budget for years. 5 upgradations, 1 procurement, 2 armament manufacturing plans failed due to budget cuts. IRI mullahs need to be dragged through the cities for the damage they have done to Iran.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah receives nearly 800 million dollars per year for doing nothing.
Imagine a non-Arab country that pays an Arab militias 2-4 times more than its air force.
I don't know when this nightmare will end.

It is getting a small boost. Did you see their recent budget announcement? 30% of air transit and air corridor fees will go to air force.

Hesbollah has paid a huge price in blood! They also kept the shadow of war off Iran until they stood down after Lebanese government agreed to the ceasefire with Israel.

Don't understand why Iran has not approached china for aircraft and long range air force

China can supply equipment farore quickly than Russia who is embroiled in Ukraine war
