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

Yeah yeah, will believe it when it comes. More Russia cope:

Meanwhile let me inject some reality into this fantasy discussion:

What you are saying is correct, but I am just holding on to a bleak hope based on what has been offered so far.
 
Wow, ok I think I know what the theory is now.

But that means there are boots on the ground now? Isn't that what this implies? We haven't heard anything about troops entering Iran as of yet.
I always thought it was stupid to employ the F-35 in a CAS role given its limited weapons capability compared to say an F-18. Nor can it loiter like the A-10. To mount additional ordnance under the wings means you give up stealth capability

As for boots about to be or currently on the ground? Your guess is as good as anyone else. If I knew for a fact there were already boots on the ground, I sure as hell wouldn't mention it here.

Except that there were no US troops or allied forces fighting on the ground that needed close air support. And while the F-35 can provide CAS, that job is usually left to A-10 Thunderbolt II.
The A-10 will eventually go away. The Air Force hasn't given up on that.

As Marine F/A-18s are replaced by the F-35, CAS for the BLTs and other ground units will come eventually from the F-35.

In the meantime, the A-10 is simply awesome when you need something to look like Swiss Cheese.
 
I think they got careless; we saw videos earlier of f-18s flying in low altitude because they thought irans air defence was depleted
Which means something like "Flight of the Intruder"; some farmer with an SKS got a lucky hit.

If you know the truth, then end the relationship with the bloody terrorist Zionist Nation.
