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

[KAL-EL]

The problem is the size of both countries, while Iran can absorb a hit due to its sheer size and the concept of martyrdom among Iranians, Israel and Israelis will not.

All the more reason Iran should have immediately retaliated fiercely. Sure it launched a few missiles here and there

In the end, it didn't amount to much.

Of course we have to take Israel's retaliation into the equation. If thousands of them were killed Trump wouldn't be able to hold them back anymore.

They would inflict Mass casualties on the other side too

Remember they have second strike capability and the Samson option which I hope by the way never happens

And what exactly would this pre-emptive strike entail and which targets? What size of missiles? How many missiles would need to be launched to ensure a successful strike knowing that between Israel, the US, Jordan and possibly KSA, upwards of 90% of the missiles would be intercepted? Are you confident Iran has the missiles and more importantly the launchers to launch such a strike?

Would the Houthis be involved or allow them to continue their attacks on KSA? Or perhaps a coordinated strike on KSA to distract it while the Iranian attack is underway?

Are drones factored into this or not?

I wouldn't be so confident of the 90% interception rate in the next round. Iran has taken out a huge number of US radars, their missiles seem to be different/better.

I'm not so confident of that interception rate either. It is a figure one armchair analyst here seems to hover around without really committing to it so I am choosing to use it. The real interception rate is likely 70-low mid 80s percent depending on the makeup of the in-bound package and defenses around the target zone.

On the flip side, the Air Force has admitted the amount of damage to its facilities is a direct result due to the lack of defenses around those said facilities.

Since the F15, A10s were shot down manned flights seem to have reduced more drones and standoff munitions. So seems they are not underestimating Iranian air defence even how limited it may be. Think trump is scared of pilots getting captured if shot down.

I have a feeling the Zionazis might be willing to risk it more, however that will present Iran with greater opportunity of shootdowns. The bombs being delivered are likely dumb bombs so the Zionazis will have no choice but to fly deep into Iranian airspace. Iranians better be ready for it.

Are you freaking serious? Dude get out into the real world and stop living in your Fantasyland

Even before the war, Iran didn't have a very big Air Force or navy. A lot of that was wiped out once the war began

Brah.......tune in to the adult discussions on even msm channels.

Its just so game over man, and been this way for months now no?

Yous tuned into teenaged 'control of Irans air'.......'air superiority over Irans skies'.......Are you kidding yourself? The wars been lost!

Another drone (allegedly) downed - the 4th in 36 hours

It's hurting Pakistan too

There you have IP pipeline with long term payment. But preferred to follow American instruction instead of developing cordial relationship with your immediate neighbor. There is still a chance for that energy line.
