Doesn't Iran have a few S-300/400 class missile batteries deployed?

I doubt they would publish that info on open source.

Because likely the want to make shareholders happy. War is big business afterall, i remember during Afghan just the winterised tent tenders on CAGE was worth 300 Million.

Its all about $$$

I had an Afghan colleague who went back to Afghanistan as an interpreter. He signed a 12-month contract that paid extremely well , enough to cover the cost of his house.
He shared some wild stories about how money was flowing with almost no oversight. According to him, a platoon commander (a lieutenant) would sometimes carry a briefcase full of cash to hand to a tribal leader, with little to no auditing.
He also mentioned contractors doing things like installing a metal door on a mud hut and billing $1M for what was supposedly a “reinforced command center.”


War is a massive business.

How do you know? There’s literally highest level of censorship. We don’t lnow the damage and you have reached conclusions lol

Iran has fired 230 missiles at Israel since war began according to IDF

In 12 day war it fired 700 or more

230 is not enough to overwhelm their defenses. They have probably 400 interceptors+ 96 Thaad available for use while rest is for strategic sites only.

Iran would need to get into 400-500 range for Israeli interception rate to go on downward curve which will open way for precise strikes on infrastructure in Israel

But there is open source information that Iran received S-300 systems in 2016 and a few S-400s in 2025, or am I mistaken?

Why should China get involved? This really isnt their fight. I know it hurts to hear this but its true.

Spend some time understanding Chinese people and you will have answers to many questions.

They weren't involved in 1990-1991 either. So no surprise.

Oh yes, I knew a couple of Pakistanis who also served as translators in Afghanistan. A 12 month contract was 180k per year, tax free. You could make even more money if you were willing to leave the base and go on patrol with the Marines.

These were guys who didnt have much education or skills but had immigrated to America on family unification visa. So all they could do was manual or minimum wage jobs. Of course the translator work in Afghanistan paid 10 times more.

Who cares. It is not impressive to fly a manned craft to shoot down a slow-moving drone.
