Short video about the $ mathematics of securing the Strait of Hormuz even if/when the military assets are put into place to try to protect the Strait.
Only a foolish sea ship captain would risk the passage.

As posted a few times here and another thread already; so long as Iran has one missile and the means to launch it, the Strait will be at risk.

Take with a very large grain of salt these claims, until visual evidence is produced

Asked around about it. Other than US military jets shot down by friendly fire, no other manned aircraft have been lost. Israelis and Americans are flying over Iran uncontested. The current Iranian Air Force are not capable of countering them. The missiles and drones from Iran has been much more effective in attacking their points of interest, with some legitimate targets comprising of some occupied and empty US airbases, along with civilian casualties in Bahrain (which is also a result of their own feud with Bahrain for a long time).

The only Iranian air defense weapon proven to be useful has been the 358/359 loitering munitions and the Majid passive SHORAD. These are good for tackling MALE UAVs, but not fighter jets.

If iran survives this war, the next step would be to build supersonic versions of the loitering Air defense munitions that can loiter in an airspace then quickly attack a fighter jet. Since these are launched off of rails and simple ramps, they are much more survivable than big bulky air defense systems that can detected from space.

Nonetheless, Iran will need to likely import billions of Russian or Chinese systems and completely rebuild the air defense architecture from scratch with lessons learned from the war.

Iranian Air Force and NAvy were non factors (as expected). I wouldn’t expect iran to invest heavily in either post war.

Problem is what’s the incentive for Iran to stop there is no incentives with no guarantees that Israel will return even without America backing it up needs to keep hitting back all this means is their stock of interceptors are at red they planned this for several days at best thought Iran was going to lift the white flag 🤦
