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

[Yasser76]

Seems like an F-15E

USAF losses now matching or exceeding those of 1991 Gulf War and 2003 Gulf War.

I think they expected some losses but as mentioned, at this rate capability so eroding.

4 F-15Es
1 F-35 Damaged/write off
2 E-3s
2 C-130 Compass Call
8 (possibly more!?) KC-135s

Even for USAF this presents about 2-3s years worth of attrition. Same as PAF losing 6 planes in 1 month, and imagine of those 6 if 1 was Erieye, 1 was Falcon 20 , 1 was IL-76 and 3 were F-16s.

See my point?

1 more month and if Iran keeps this up, USAF losses will be 35-40 planes. Again, US can take this for sure, but almost all of the above are no longer being manufactured apart from F-35, so these will be a erosion of capability in short/medium term

Again, also add planes they will no need to retire early due to war use/fatigue.

By default this has put PLAAF and PLAAN Air Arm ahead by a year or so simply by standing there watching

You are crazy. Al Jazeera Arabic has been the most reliable source for all news related to the conflict.

They're literally almost 100% official sources and verified information on ground.

And they will share everything said by officials from all parties and sources from all parties. Which is good to have. The world and us middle Easterners need to see and read what Israeli officials are saying and up to.

Al Jeezera has it's biases but yeah, if I had to choose the least partisan news source it would be them

Take it back to regional spheres of Influence. Where Trump initially was heading... three great powers, US, China and Russia... no one took the bait. Or not yet, not visibly...
Zion knows it's size is both its strength and weakness. Weakness only if everyone unites... and strength because of it's ability to project and an outsized military compared to its neighbors for rather smaller borders to protect. It took vulnerable locations such as Golan heights and secured it's longest borders via treaties.

It needs the region to collapse politically. Which is why if Golani in Syria holds a unified state, even if he acquiesces to zion, is an unwelcome development. Besides they simply do not trust Turkiye. Which is why their aim is to collapse the state of Iran even if the regime meanders for a little bit... as long as they can establish impunity over Iranian skies... they can overtime find accomplices seeking little crowns and fiefs of their own... something they can back to channel the ambitious among people to do their bidding. A guiding hand.
India has been humbled, burnt both it's hand and mouth by drinking tea makers concoction. As a result India has precipitously collapsed globally.
Back to the original point... the three great powers...
Zion instead seeks to leverage a regional power globally... so not three but many... to work with regional hegemons... with choke hold in Europe and Americas... reasonable influence in Russia and Africa... as well as India in South Asia region.

Me thinks Zion has infiltrated Russia too.

A demonstration of small guy holding a big office. Not only that he has no respect, his orders are illegal and in coming will feel even less enthusiastic about taking the positions fearing his aim to coerce them into doing further an illegal war of aggression where orange has no goals, no law, no moral qualms and a penchant of throwing people under the bus for his failed policies.

Wooooooaaaaaáa

Like Joseph Stalin during Stalingrad Battle!!!

I didn't believe It. But i checked and seems to be true.

If he doesn't listen his generals mistakes will increase more frequently. It is shameful and hope they make something stupid like sending ground troops.

I will do a full war report soon.

Seems like after war Artesh is done and entire land, sea, air, aerospace, cyber, nuclear domains will be completely taken over by IRGC so will be the oil business. Dodgy but thats how it is now. One Iranian dedicated military commentator said that its almost like Israelis and US are deliberately targeting Artesh branches more than that should target IRGC. IRIAF, IRIN, IRIAD, SPND, SNSC all will turn into IRGC subbranches.

Another interesting point being made is that IRGC is baiting PGCC to enter the war. Their entry will militarily make zero difference in war that already involves hyper+great power's almost air and naval assets but it will allow IRGCASF to legally destroy PGCC airbases completely and fleets in them and socioeconomic infrastructure if need be. Iran will have nothing to loose in return. Jew owned PGCC sheikhdoms know this so they are staying away despite being hit every day by IRGC. We may see IRGC pulling a bigger bait attack on them in future if war drags on because their entry in war will favor IRI more than anyone.

Because many instances have come out of us firing missiles from Kuwait..

And this war has proved that they have a great dream, but need a reality check.

As far as the Iran/Israel-US war is concerned AJN has voiced the talking points from Iran. Personally I am not a fan of the Qataris but there are very few news agencies you can say are middle ground but still somewhat reliable.

 

[ToddE]

Unless they could produce hundreds of 5th generation fighters within a decade using export licenses, I don't think any amount of fighters was the right call. Overall, I don't see much too wrong with the IRGC/IRGCAF's approach. If you know that the adversaries you're going to go up against eventually will have an overwhelming advantage in the aircraft department, swing your efforts into other directions, like missile cities, decentralized/cheap AD, drones.

You took it wrong, I was talking about beyond 2027-28 when 60 or so SU-35S are supposed to arrive and are shoved inside underground bases to fight regional wars in future.

Overall, there is no airforce on earth except Chinese (and Russian to some extent) may be that can survive against USAF/USN/Israeli AF combination. They will destroy the fleet on ground within a week if not in air.

Come on mate. AJ is a joke. Sometimes they put the correct objective facts up on the board or they invite a balanced analyst for discussion, fair enough - even I will quote them in such cases. But mostly, they choose their own narrative, patronise the viewer by drilling that narrative into their brains, and remind us that Qatar is an unstoppable Switzerland of the east once per bulletin.

The problem in the west is, there is NO English language media that focuses on middle eastern news except for AJ. Press TV got banned but that was ridiculously biased too. I haven't properly tried TRT yet, to be fair.

Often they have criticised Qatar policies and very very few Arab news outlets are allowed to do that in their countries

Not at all. The US has been caught firing HIMARS on Iran from the Kuwaiti territory multiple times.
