IRGC-N launches naval variant of Sayyad-3 SAM with 150km range from Shahid Shirazi ship (Shahid Soleimani class)

each ship in this class can carry 6 x Sayyad-3 SAMs

Apparently, Iran will sit back, not level the bases and their command control centers to ashes that are 120 KM away.

I heard the same talk about Israel before the war happened. Yet Iranian missiles could not stop Israel sortie runs.

Did they “level US bases” when B-2’s and F-22’s rolled in and bombed Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan?

US already demonstrated capability to bomb deep inside Iran without Iran even knowing until after it happened, yet you sit in denial.

Tell me how these fancy planes stationed 1400 km away on aircraft carriers reach Iran, with a 600 km range?

Who told you aircraft carriers are stationed 1400KM away?

F-22 has 3000KM operational range if it decides to use fuel tanks. Plus there are likely going to be aerial refueling tankers as we see many are flowing to the theater.

The same pieces were in play during the 12-day period, and Israel probably used 200+ 4-gen aircraft. Most of the damage after the initial shock was caused by drones. Good luck with that.

Iran didn’t shoot down a single tanker or 4th gen fighter jet during the war. They even showed a video saying we could see them, but couldn’t lock on.

Let’s not forget, B-2 and F-22 flew deep inside Iran and bombed Iran’s most important nuclear installation without Iran firing a single shot to stop them! And yet you sit here confident that Iran could keep the strait closed for more than a brief period of time at great losses?

You are speaking with emotions not logic.

It is a fact that the bombing of Fordow was kabuki theater with coordination and agreement, which followed the strike on Qatar. There is no evidence of manned aircraft entering Iran other than Fordow. Even that is not clear. The strikes on Natanz were carried out by Tomahawks, not by manned aircraft. There is plenty of material online that confirms it.
IRI is not going to fall with arial bombardment. Right now, they are running a survey on how many US casualties are acceptable. There is no doubt America will inflict serious damage; Iran's defenses are vulnerable, but the offensive side is a different ballgame.
With ten times the firepower, the Americans were not able to track down 39 Iraqi Scud launchers. This is not going to be one or two weeks of strikes followed by American victory. In the first week, Iran will take hits, but then the retaliation will start.

in the best case scenarios, all these Russian ships can provide early warning for strange US jets movement in the region

IRGC-N did it with Navab short range SAM missile (15km range) installed on Zulfiqar speedboat and Shahid Soleimani class ships 2-3 years ago

and now they tested Sayyad-3F SAM on Shahid Soleimani class ships with 150km range

in 2019 Khanzadi (then head of IRIN) said they were installing VLS systems on Dena and Damavand, and would test it soon, and then VLS would be installed on all IRIN Mouj class ships

https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/442292/Iranian-Navy-installing-VLS-on-two-destroyers

7 years later it's now 2026 and none of that happened and not a single IRIN Mouj class ship has VLS systems. and we still only have one Fateh class submarine in operation and none of our subs have AIP systems despite promises there too.

serious questions need to be asked about the Iranian Navy and its management/leadership ...

 

[Persian Gulf]

"The official disclosed that the project is underway, with plans to install the AIP system on the first Fateh-class submarine within approximately a year. After assessing the results on the initial submarine, the modernization process will extend to other boats in the class."

The frigate Dena 75 docked in the Indian port of Visakhapatnam to participate in the international exercise "Milan 2026."
It's a good thing this ship is out of the Persian Gulf at this time.
