Probably so hopefully Iran actually hits first like last time after the Beirut airstrike but with as much as they can and as many successive waves as possible

Iskander is hypersonics and have semi ballistic trajectory plus decoys to deceive and surpass enemy SAM systems. It has been specialized to chase Patriots during very firsts months of the war.Iskander has a range of less than 500KM and its decoys are Cold War era. It is not that much more advanced than Fattah or Keyibar Shekan which both have much longer ranges and need more sophisticated targeting systems to stay on course. Iskander is not a super missile and Russia is building at least 60-70 a month alongside Onyx missile and Zircon and a family of CMs and drones.
Donald Trump is currently reneging on the agreement with the EU to avert a tariff war.Then what? Whatever economic damage it would unleash would be worse on poorer countries, including Iran, than those bastards with their trillions upon trillions sitting thousands of kilometers away. They will build themselves back again.
If there is an iota of sense left on either side, this will end on a table, sooner rather than later.
U.S. is striking 10-20 Iranian cities/towns a night. You would respond to that by only firing 5-7 missiles. You would fire 15-20.
So either Iran is preserving its missile for a return to high tempo operations or it simply does not have inventory to risk firing that many missiles a day.
I also don’t believe Iran can build 100 BM missiles a month during wartime. 50 maybe. I look at the Russian production rates and extrapolate that number to Iran. Russia has stronger industrial base than Iran does as well. Russia isn’t building 100 Iskanders a month.
Just remember, the weapon in Iran hand isnt the missiles or drones, it's the ability to close the Hormuz, the red sea and stop movement across the region
The pain is the screws being turned on the U.S and world economy,
Well Iran has already been under crippling sanctions before so you honestly believe if Iran can keep this blockade going for several month or even a year or longer western nations who have many poor destitute people wouldn’t come unscathed from all of this trump thought the Iranians would agree to his terms of surrender he was wrong and he was the one who kept walking back on agreements that his own officials agreed to and he did as well.
It’s weird when the “bad”guys flip the script and go after the true villain my 2 cents you don’t have to agree with it
Donald Trump is currently reneging on the agreement with the EU to avert a tariff war.
Perhaps someone needs to be found to teach him how to respect an agreement. Pakistan?, European union, Canada?... oh, wey, México!!!!¿?
Indeed, smaller tankers will have to be used.
I'm sure they shaking in fear right nowBREAKING NEWS:

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump warned China and Russia on Friday against selling weapons to Iran — while saying he believed assurances from Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin that they were not yet doing so.
- US president says he believes assurances from Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin that they are not doing so
“Therefore, two major Countries that people speak of often in terms of Iran are, in my opinion, not participating,” Trump said on his Truth Social network. “If they did, it would be very bad for them — Certainly not in their best interests.”
Trump’s comment on Truth Social comes amid reports that Washington is investigating whether Moscow and Beijing are giving Iran targeting information, following a series of strikes on US bases.
The US leader said Chinese president Xi had told him when they met in Beijing in May that he would not arm Iran under any circumstances, adding: “considering our relationship, I take him at his word.”
Trump added that Putin had made a similar promise despite the war in Ukraine.
“He understands that I do not sell Weapons to Ukraine, but to NATO Countries. They pay full price, and how those Weapons are distributed, I have no idea,” Trump said.
Trump has frequently taken a more deferential tone toward Xi and Putin than he has toward Washington’s own allies, saying that they must be respected as the leaders of major world powers.
