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

[Flotilla]

Could be a bluff, could be reality. The truth is likely somewhere in between

I told you. During months nobody hit industrial sites. Obviously the pace of assembling missiles increase. Probably not at the same numbers before the war but Irán is right now building more factories under mountains.

That could be anything. It could be a shadow. It could be a cloud passing overhead. Destruction seems too small for a missile warhead. Iran did also fire drones btw at the base.

I remember when everyone was saying the hangar was hit in July pointing to black satellite photos and in the end it was just new asphalt being poured on the runway leading to the hangar.

You would think a 500kg hypersonic warhead would appear bigger than a light smudge on a satellite photo.

I’m skeptical till more data comes in

When a dog is rabid, it’s because someone has smacked it on the snout.

If Trump is barking It is because It hurt him.

Huge valuable targets sitting out in the open and Iran won’t attack them



This is how you know they are not serious about fighting a war.

Just let boil the frog.
Each tanker needs at least 2 fighters for protection. And you need many more for patrolling the bottleneck of islands and coast.
That is extremely expensive. Millions of dolars each hour because the high number of assets.
Then you must count helicopters and ships involved.

Iran must be trembling they’re only been under heavy sanctions for 47 years already”economic D-day” my ArSe.

U.S. CONFIRMS Iran's Air Defense TARGETED This F-35 Over the Hormuz with an Iranian Anti-Aircraft Missile

THIS IS BIG. Iran's Air Defenses play games with U.S. Jets now... Explains why they WON'T Enter the Airspace

U.S Official to Axios:
One incident that raised concern in recent days was the launch of an Iranian anti-aircraft missile toward a U.S. F-35 fighter jet that was providing cover to ships in the strait, a U.S. official said.

While the missile didn't come close enough to be a threat, it was a signal that Iran is trying to reconstitute its military capacity, according to the U.S. official.

The real game changer of SAM system is Majid-08. That system having IR/EO tracker It is completely passive. Also the missile seeker It is IR. And the IR plume of the F35 It is large when the pilot detect with their EOTS the engine of the missile incoming.

But the bottleneck It is that the system only has 8 km of range. Azarakash could reach 10 km and if Irán deploy It in large number It Will be a matter of time to shoot down one of those chubby fighters.

The top speed of the F35 is less than a half of an F15. Their acceleration It is much less and therefore for a IR missile the chances are higher than with a F15 or Typhoon that have a much higher top speed.

The 3-Khordad or other systems have a big problem with the F35. They are equipped with a Band X radar illuminator and that fighters It is specifically designed to be stealth to this band.

In any case, you can modulate the radar's power and fine-tune the search area—perhaps even detecting an F-35 at a range of a few tens of kilometers.

Yet, even then, the US F-35—which urgently acquired MBDA BriteCloud decoys in December 2025 (right in the middle of the war)—employs small emitters that trail a couple of hundred meters behind the aircraft; these return the exact same radar illumination signal sent by the 3 Khordad, causing the Sayyad missile to home in on the decoy instead of ever reaching the launching aircraft.

The only real way for the 3 Khordad to be effective against the F-35 is to equip the Sayyad missile with an auxiliary IR guidance system, similar to the one found on the US Navy's SM-2 IIIC missiles.

Given that both this US missile and the Sayyad family originate from the SM-1—a system Iran knows inside out—it is only a matter of time before Iran develops an inertial/IR version of the Sayyad and gives those "iron birds" a real scare.

Anyway I agree with you and told Shapurll two days ago that In a form or another, Irán managed to deny the airspace to USAF and US Navy. They avoid entering iranian airspace.

Iran has the most idiotic military strategy. They always stop Whenever the US stop to reload. WHY???

 

[KingQamaR]

Iran should deplete all of the US air defences in GCC/ surrounding Arab countries

The Strait of Hormuz lies within Iran’s territorial and economic waters
Under international law, Iran has the right, in sensitive circumstances and even under normal circumstances, to restrict passage through its territorial and economic waters.
It's "IRAN'S" waters

And about a country that borders the strait? They have every right to Transit at will within their territorial Waters.
