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

These SAR efforts can go on for weeks. The us f117 shoot down over serbia pilot escaped capture for 6 days. Its irans best intrest to not disclose capture even if he is found to bait more CSAR teams for a prepared ambush or even the just to cause panic among Americans that one of their men possibly died in iran
6 days? you are very wrong about that. can you double check that then return please?
 
No sir , Russia is a wreck of her former self, she is struggling to keep her image.... China is the real deal.... it's China and Pakistan who are running the middle east theatre.

If it were Iran, Russia's influence would be greater than China's. Even India has strong influence over Iran.

But China may be the only major power that hopes for the unity of the Islamic world in the Middle East, and Russia also hopes for the continued division of the Islamic world. Its position is similar to that of the United States.
 
Am going to get this straight...

Air Dominance: The ability of an air force to compel other air forces to re-array themselves, usually into subordinate postures.

Air Superiority: The ability of an air force to achieve control of contested airspace(s), repeatedly if necessary, and if there are losses, those losses would not pose a statistical deterrence to that ability.

Air Supremacy: He flies, he dies.

The clear indicator here is air force vs air force.

There are two ways you can lose an air attacker, be it a fighter or a bomber: against the opposing air force, or against ground based defense.

We can eliminate the Iranian air force as cause of our air losses. The best way to defeat enemy air force is to destroy them while they are on the ground.

Ground based air defense is the last line of defense. Ground based air defense is when the enemy is literally over you. Ground based air defense is REACTIVE while an air force is PROACTIVE/PREEMPTIVE. Ground based air defense CANNOT carry the fight to the enemy but an air force can. Do you understand?

Like it or not, the US owns Iranian airspace. Any Iranian airplane flies, he dies. Simple as that.
textbooks from last century should be rewritten to adapt to new realities imo... I bet the one who wrote these lines never saw a country like Iran coming: a country with basically no air force but deadly missiles. well I guess the E-3 and KC-135 kills could fit the "defeat enemy air force while they are on the ground" narrative:p

Speaking of which, what's your excuse for USAF‘s lousy performance so far? I mean things can't get more clear when a side by side comparison can be made: the IAF simply outperforms USAF by a sizeable margin, they havent lost anything yet except some expendable drones, while flying the same amoumt of sorties if not more

unironically for most neutral observers, the US military is quickly following suit of the Russians

⭕️ Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that Wave 95 of Operation True Promise 4 targeted multiple sites across Kuwait, Bahrain, the UAE, and Israel, including US military assets, an Israeli-affiliated commercial vessel, and several locations in Israel, using various missile systems.

The IRGC said targets included US Army HIMARS artillery positions on Bubiyan Island in Kuwait, a US Patriot system in northern Bahrain, a gathering site for operators of US Marx missiles, a site hosting senior commanders and trainers of the US military in the Sil Bane area of the UAE, and the US artificial intelligence company Oracle in the UAE.

The Israeli-affiliated commercial vessel MSC ISHYKA was struck at Khalifa Bin Salman Port in Bahrain by Iranian projectiles.

Additionally, locations in Bnei Brak, Petah Tikva, Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, and Kiryat Shmona were heavily and continuously targeted with multi-warhead Ghadr missiles.
