US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

[AZ_HighCountry]

AirPower isn’t going to do it the whole shock and awe thing was done 6 month ago everything now is ok we have seen that one before kind of deal is trump actually willing to do the unthinkable boots on the ground but only thing that would guarantee is years of bloody fighting

There's not enough combat troops in the region. It doesn't matter if there are 50K or even 150K troops over there. Not all are grunts. It's the grunts that are in short supply.

Personally, until I see evidence to the contrary, I suspect Iran is holding back on its actual launch capabilities. They learned a thing or two back when we were Scud hunting nor am I of the belief we've knocked out all of their missile facilities including access.

As for the economic war, it's a question of who is willing to hold out the longest. Political fallout can be a powerful motivator. If you care about it that is.

Incredible deployment from the Lincoln carrier group. 9+ months at sea, 6 months of heavy combat operations, launched thousands of sorties and strikes, and successfully defended the group from all enemy attacks.

Starting to sound like a near perfect interception rate that’s being disproven in real time and what’s not being proven in real time we will see satellite images very soon

How many times does Iran need to attack the same base, and with how many ballistic missiles, before it's supposedly “totally destroyed”?

I mean, they've been attacking U.S. bases in the region since 28 February, and it's now 2 September.

There are a total of 19 US bases in the region. Some of these bases have been hit repeatedly over the past six months, yet they're still operating.

So how many missiles does it actually take before a major U.S. airbase is considered totally destroyed?
