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

[Ibbi32]

More accurate is Couple of hours before being sunk. Iran probably has thousands of ASM of various types they even converted old AD missiles into anti ship ones, drones excluded.
Your scenario is more suitable for PC game.

You underestimate the USNs air defence capabilities. They make thaad and patriot look like a joke. These ships are designed to fight against plarf and plan in a scenario like taiwan strait, hormuz is nothing in comparison

For better or worse iranian decided that west reapproachment is finished story, i would say for better but lot of time and good people sacrificed for harboring illusion that some honest, civilized and just framework could be carved out with them.
On better side is when that illusion is shattered narrowed focus and concentrated effort will yield more suitable outcomes for emergent current iranian needs.

This isnt just for Iran, everyone can see what Trump and world powers do. You'd see a shift in global order now, some of it is you are already witnessing.

The West has long characterized Iran’s oil as a prize to be claimed

For more than a century, Iran has occupied a powerful place in the western imagination, characterized as a volatile region that sits atop vast oil reserves.

Hitting desalination plants hurts ordinary people.

When the GCC countries will join the US in attacking Iran and as a result Iranian infra, water, livelihood will be affected, large number of Iranians will die, you will reflect back at this point, "Hitting desalination plants hurts ordinary people". You would rather wish that you finished the enemy long before it got the chance to strike.

I do not underestimate anything just learnt what their real capabilities are, in theory maximum AD missiles of each destroyer can field about 100 AD missiles, if you scramble task force of five or six of those it is several hundreds, how many drones and missiles can Iran rain on them, much more of those juicy targets which have several hundred people each onboard if you add sea mines, fast patrol boats with anti ship missiles which are in shelters now, droned one way fast boats, it is suicidal mission for us navy.

Misdirection. Deception. Obfuscation.

"The West", which we will assume is "led" by USA for now, wants Tehran to be denied use of its own oil (to serve the interests of Tel Aviv), first and foremost. IF they can also capture that oil for themselves, it is a bonus as "spoils of war".

K-4's 3200-3500 with 500-700 KG warhead (IISS) estimates
Sejjil-II 2500-3200 KM with same warheads

Ghaem is a tristaged solid fueled TEL SLV, which with a Re-entry Vehicle can hit probably +10000 KM. Its similar to Russian Yars or Minutemen in terms of ISP of stages. A very powerful machine as a nuke deliverer at distance.

Qased is another tristaged TEL SLV which if deployed with Re-entry Vehicle instead of Sat bus can probably hit 7000-8000 KM considering its ISP is less than Ghaem.

Both are IRGC products, different from SLVs of Iranian Space Agency ISA.

At These long ranges only warheads with dirty bomb can inflict real pain. CEP is going to be 4-5kms.

Does Iran have any satellite kill rocket? If yes, they should take out some US satellites.

The F-35's infrared signature is optimized to delay medium/long range detection. This means it is vulnerable at short range. The idea is to dissipate / disperse heat quickly by mixing the hot exhaust with ambient cold air so an IR receiver at 60 miles can't see those emissions. However, this makes it very visible at short range a design trade off since the F-35 isn't meant to get close to the enemy.

Stealth is not that you can't see them in Radar, stealth is basically lowering their emission and having the signature mimic something else. Like a plane can be disguised as a bird if you limit its emissions.

Problem is, if you know, from experience, that is where that stealth fighter is going to appear, because either they repeat the same route or you have prior information knowing this will happen, then you can lock into it regardless of range, because you will know that is not a bird, that was a fighter jet, and you can lock on it

by the way, that is how they shot down the F-117 back in Bosnia

I’ve seen lots of posts on x claiming Russia is providing intelligence to Iran, and they told the US that they will stop providing intelligence if the US stops providing intelligence to Ukraine. Is this true?

The US has stopped intelligence sharing since Trump came to power.

What we know about the US decision to cut intelligence sharing with Ukraine

One expert says the CIA's move to stop sharing intelligence with Ukraine will have an instantaneous impact on the battlefield. Here's what we know.

www.abc.net.au

There are still private firms in the US sharing intel with Ukraine (like Maxar or Google), but no intel sharing at G2G level since March 2025.

Bet when they signed up for a cushy airline pilots job based in Dubai a few years ago they would not have known they would be flying from one war zone and landing in another on a flight....
