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

[Fatman17]

What was the extent of the damage at IDF bases? Did they lose any assets or it was just cratering the airfields

IDF censors all details and satellite imagery companies are not selling high resolution imagery of Israeli bases. so no one can tell for now.

 

[PAKISTANFOREVER]

They don't want to help us, we signed a contract from 3 years ago about joint production of Su-35 , they just have to honor their own contract ...

As Putin said, they even offer joint production of AD system to us, we simply reject their offers ...

They are arms sellers, and after the west sanction we are one of few customers they have.

We are one of last chance Russia has to sell their 4.5th gen fighter.

So what is the reason they are not honoring this contract?

 

[ShapurII]

in Operation TP2 Iran fired c. 180 missiles simultaneously, i.e., using 180 launchers

do we really think Iran used every single missile launcher in the entire country during TP2? we know only 5 SSM bases were used for TP2. There are dozens of such bases (40+).... draw your own conclusions about the likely number of launchers!

@ShapurII

Israel showed evidence of hitting up to 33 launchers (+12 repeated footage)... that is a drop in the ocean and laughable that this could have any material impact on number of launchers, especially considering the biggest SSM bases were not even used (IRGC says not even one missile city was used)

Yes, that makes sense. Why do you think the IRGC did not try to saturate the coalition's air defenses using Shahed drones?

if anyone is interested, you can buy recent 2.5m resolution satellite imagery from Tel Nof for < $20

but 2.5m will not be incredible useful

Yeah, we need at least 1m resolution to be able to see anything at all. Preferably 25-50cm resolution.

Still hearing Fighter jets crossing over Karaj ... something is suspicious ...

Tabnak claims Iranian Mig-29s have been doing routine monitoring of our air space since yesterday, but take it with a grain of salt.
Maybe the rumors about J-10Cs are true? I know I sound foolishly optimistic, but is it possible?

We asked for assembly of customized version to Iran ... creatin assembly line, training Iranian technician take more time ... although there is news that they assembled 3 Su-35 in Iran but our AF decided to no unveil or use them due their low numbers

To receive and use new aircraft that quickly is unlikely.

Some sources claimed that up to 10 kits where delivered. Up to 4 had been assembled in Iran and where going through Flight tests by the time Israel attacked. Whether or not this is true is not known.

I can only guess that they were not really prepared for this and they also lost access to most of their biggest SSM bases

but they did fire > 1000 drones apparently, but only 1 impacted in Israel

Yeah, we need at least 1m resolution to be able to see anything at all. Preferably 25-50cm resolution.

Agree, which is why I haven't bought the 2.5m resolution imagery. Funny how high res imagery of all Iranian sites is available immediately but the best we can get for Israeli sites is 2.5m!

 

[ShapurII]

Probably, but during 12 days. If they fired 1000 drones in a single day, it would've been absolutely different.

Well, it's their technology after all. What about Chinese companies? Are there Chinese or Russian companies that sell commercial photos?

Khayyam-1 satellite has 1m resolution. It's sad that Iran never publishes any satellite images.

 

[Kyussis]

Probably IRIAF Qaher-313EX Block 5 v2.0 with Sofreh Mahi Mark VII and F-14AMEX+ v3.0 safeguarding the airspace

Most of the IRIAF's combat aircraft fleet survived the "12 day war" having withdrawn to the east and south east of Iran. Israel claimed to have destroyed 15 aircraft total. 6 were F-14s (majority None serviceable airframes and or Mock ups. The rest were F-5s and a Boing 747. Some of the F-5s could have also been mock ups. It is very likely that the IRIAF has resumed air patrols to fill the gaps in radar coverage.

Just because we have only seen one impact does not mean that there was only one. If drones where used to hit military or other sensitive targets away from population centers, we would have no way of knowing due to the strict censorship enacted by the Zionist regime!

Did you ever hear fighter jets during the "12 day war"?

 

[OldTwilight]

yes ... it's was from higher attitude than this one , look like they are patrolling sky because right now a sand storm is hitting karaj and visibility is very low ( 50-100m )
