    🇮🇷| Chief of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces:

    Among our targets were israel’s 3 main airbases, Mossad’s terror HQ, Radar sites, and gathering sites of armoured vehicles around the Gaza Strip, responsible for the genocide in Gaza.

    Only military sites were targeted. If Israel is not contained by US & Europe, and takes action against our sovereignty & territorial integrity, tonight's operation will be repeated in much greater size.


    Cool

    The ?air-base looks like it took a few hits. I hope the f35s were at home. Can someone please explain what those missiles are that appear to be spinning during descent. Have they been intercepted but not destroyed or are those the warheads that can manoeuvre mid flight? Their trajectory looks weird. It’s clear they still explode upon impact. Thanks.

    Iranians claimed some of their BMs have maneuvering warheads. Well, they carry 750-1000kg warhead. Kaboom and F35 is still around. I mean everywhere.

    Now this is what i call a missile strike gents, looking good, not enough body bags though, at least not as much as the Jews are willing to admit.
    I expect a lot of aircraft to be out of commission doe to "maintenance problems".
    If not, then whoever organized this needs to be dealt with. Rolling Eyes

    Some are saying that they seen hypersonics and that Iran has them. As far as I know , Russia is the only state that is verified to have hypersonics. Part of the reason why Russia has hypers is because it has Mig 31's. Which Iran does not have. The speed of the missile carrier is what makes it possible

    Technically Russia has what have been called hypersonic missiles for years... the Iskander is powered all the way to the target and is not a ballistic missile.

    In the ground launched version the flight speed is mach 6 to mach 7 which makes it hypersonic (faster than mach 5).

    The air launched version of Iskander which gets called Kinzhal is launched in motion and at altitude meaning it can climb higher and fly faster... mach 9 or so...

    These two missiles are borderline called hypersonic because they are not ballistic missiles... the first ICBM, the R-7 is hypersonic too but ICBMs and IRBMs are not called hypersonic because they are ballistic.

    The real hypersonic missiles are weapons like Zircon that are powered all the way and fly more like bombers than released bombs or fired artillery shells.

    Of course the target wont care.

    As we eagerly await daylight pics of what was hit….

    Judging from comments being released this morning, they’re going to retaliate in a major way, so I guess oilfields and nuclear power plants are on the menu as they had previously warned Iran.

    What Iran does after that we shall have to wait and see.

    Is this what Netanyahu wanted all along….the big fight with the US dragged in? affraid

    Time will tell……

    Yes it is full scale and could turn nuclear . What should worry the Anglo- Zionazis , is that Iran knew fully well , what would follow . This is what they should focus on now .

    Three American destroyers also reportedly participated in intercepting Iranian missiles. This must be added to Israel's AD plus Jordan.

    There was an quasi-official statement of Iranians that they have used hypersonic Fatteh 2 to target Arrow missile sites&radars.

    Well, this time those numbers do add up ...
    The scale of interception seems irrelevant - we can count an incidental cases ...

    However, Russian AD is doing better, although on the other hand it has not responded to missile attacks on such a large scale, rather to maneuvering missiles and drones.

    I wonder how many they actually have, as in the ones that can reach Israel. I’d imagine those missile and drone factories will form part of the retaliation target list and some of bunker buster munitions for the storage facilities. Given the breadth of israeli intelligence, they must know exactly where these are etc.

    I guess it’ll be damn near impossible to ever know what made it through and what didn’t numbers wise let alone what % were decoy heads and whatnot. But from the footage in one part of israel at least, a fair few made it through even some crazy spinning type ones.

    Also, did they really manage to hit mossad hq in the city centre?

    But claims of 80% interception seems mad talk to me given some of these clips.

    ... let's say Russia operates 13 Iskander brigades, 12 launchers each, 2 missiles each.
    This makes a maximal salvo of 312 missiles and needs about 20 mins for reloading using assisting reload units.
    If we would add strategic aviation to the quotation, we will end up with 50+ Tu-95 and 17 Tu-160. Number of missiles for Tu-160 is 12 pcs each, but the issue is with the Tu-95. Those are a moc of old MS6 with 6 missiles, MS16 with 16 missiles, and newly modified pieces that carry 14 missiles each.
    That makes 204 for Tu-160 and lets say around 700 for Tu-95 - if we consider a full scale salvo.
    Adding naval element, we can end up with a 2000 pcs salvo.

    The eventual IRBM will carry nuclear weapons. But Russia has huge numbers of Iskanders, now after increasing range to over 1000km and so on from subsonic to hypersonic cruise missiles.

    Avangard fitted IRBM's will most likely be an option for Europe.

    It should be added that Israel is still defended by systems from Jordan and the US probably also tried to intercept missiles from Iran.


    The US tried but they were too late on the scene. Jordan's claims are pathetic. They have nothing that can stop a ballistic missile attack.

It is known that the IAF would be fully supported by the entire US air force and perhaps what is possible from the rest of NATO. On the one hand, Iran has a very weak air force, strong AD, to what extent would they be able to oppose NATO and Israeli air forces? However, this is not Russia with its powerful VKS and huge AD. The air campaign would be supported by cruise missile fire, although it is doubtful that in the case of Iran, these missiles would be enough for the West for long. Iran is a very vast territory, to what extent could the West destroy Iranian AD to carry out direct missions with aircraft or strategic bombers.

    It is perfectly clear that Israel and it's western backers are completely defenseless against ancient ballistic missiles. No amount of help will save them now. I think they got the message.

    This is a clear message not only to Israel.
    US and its minions assets in Asia are even less defended.
    Comrade Kim owns the number of missiles on the Iranian scale for sure, including some more potent.
    Both Korea and Japan are much less densely defended, with even less capable systems than Israel operates.
    Korea - or China - can wipe them out in one single blow.
    That is why we will get the sole solution that the west can apply - propaganda madness.

    The problem with RS-26 is the fact, that it is a heavy and expensive system designed as ICBM. It's shorter minimal range is just a spin-off of the project and variable trajectory. We are talking about it as MRBM only because this is a part of western shitstream narrative of how ebil Russkie are violating the INF treaty. A whole story is based on a fact that some of the tests were carried at relatively low - 2000 km - range.
    It will still be an overmatch for the European theatre, as the flight distance from Moscow fo the farthest part of continental Europe is <4kkm.
    Russkie need an inexpensive missiles with a range of 2500+ km - which would be Volga project from the 80s.
