ChatGPT says that if US deploys 450 aerial refueling tankers to Europe plus refueling tankers of UK, France, Germany, Spain - NATO can sustain 2000 aircraft sorties per day against Iran from bases in Europe in the first 6 days and 1000 sorties per day afterwards.
So if NATO goes to war against Iran on behalf of Israel, you can expect 2000 aircraft sorties per day from NATO bases in Europe and 280 Israeli aircraft sorties per day = 2280 sorties per day against Iran in the first 6 days and afterwards NATO+Israel can sustain 1250 sorties per day against Iran.
Iran has no missiles that can reach bases in Europe.
During the 1991 Gulf War US+allies made 110.000 aircraft sorties against Iraq which had a population of 15mln (without Kurdistan).
Iran has a population of 93mln people so at least 682.000 sorties is required to turn Iran into Iraq 1991 and assuming 1300 sorties per day the bombing campaign would last 524 days or 1,5 years.
