2025 Israel vs Iran War

[Dawdler]

Another angle of a hypersonic missile strike on Haifa I think (might be late and gay)
Mostly just posting to speculate: The Iron Dome obviously needs physical ammunition to work, but would those systems as well as David's sling running out of ammunition even be a possibility? If so I imagine Israel is racing to destroy as many of Iran's missile firing platforms before Iran empty their stockpiled ammunition.
Somehow I imagine that's not going to happen, but nothing is certain. Whatever the case Iran seems to be focusing on infrastructure now too, so I guess everyone is learning as they go.

It needs full launchers and it has limited interception range and time.
Tinfoil dome has already been penned by yemenis by firing mortar and similar crap until it is exhausted, then hitting it with a real drone.
Saturation attacks are common and system cannot handle more than a few missiles at a time. Mericans were probably airlifting everything they can so these launchers get filled. David's sling is even more costly and incredibly time consuming. You are basically loading a full missile with active payload.

I mean when one side is vaporizing your high command and sensitive military installations at their leisure, "behold our mighty response of broken city block windows and shaken buildings on the half dozen missiles that make it through each wave" is not exactly black floog of super serious worthy.

Pretty much whole block is wiped

So far Kiryat - Israel's military HQ got hit
Centre of Tel Aviv
Port of Haifa - Ammonium storage
Haifa Refinery on fire
Nothing special or big overall.

I think the remaining powerful leaders in iran and yemen are hiding underground, so i don’t know how will israel will get to them unless they use super cool secret technology to get there

Israel invented a laser version of the iron dome that was suppose to be deployed in October but they pushed it foward a few months so it's active now.

Iran isn't really targeting well, they're just lobbing and praying. I can assume what they are trying to hit but they're really off now.

Sounds entertaining. You should clip some content and post it in the thread

I'm not by my desk top (I'm phone posting) but if someone can give me a software that would make it easy/painless to clip I'll do what I can. it's probably gonna get crazier and crazier as time goes on.

Around 2018 and 2019 I remember hearing a lot about subterranean warfare, especially about how armies all across the world were training for it.
Most notably, I remember this was pointed out, because Russia and Iran have extensive underground fortifications and facilities already built.
Here's a video on the topic I recall watching.

In the intervening years, that just seemed to slip common consciousness. It's an interesting factoid I think still, I wonder how it'll impact this war.

Iran isn't really targeting well, they're just lobbing and praying. I can assume what they are trying to hit but they're really off now.

That just describes all artillery warfare for the majority of human history; and they clearly can't be that off the mark if they've already hit the Kiryat dead-on as well as an ammonium storage.

"THE ZIONIST ENTITY IS SHAKING IN FEAR, WE ARE WINNING" "THE ZIONIST BIBI ILLEGAL ISRAEL GOVERNMENT HAS KILLED A CHILD" "PALESTINIANS CHEER AS THEIR LIBERATION COMES SOON" "TEL AVIV IN RUINS"

I love that spirit that Memri TV channels as well.

btw people the Iranian missiles are around the size of a bus and weigh more than one (without it's 15,000 ton war-head) even if one is intercepted the chunks coming down will do a lot of damage.

So far Kiryat - Israel's military HQ got hit
Centre of Tel Aviv

Source for all of them? I'm not disagreeing that the hits seem meaningless but It seems like iran has missed what it wants to hit and is striking NEAR it.

It's all about getting "as close as possible" I know for a while nukes were massive megaton city killers because the targeting war so poor you just had to over kill it just to be sure what you wanted hit was infact hit. Then as targeting got better mega-tonnage went down because they could guarantee the hits would happen (yes I know the city killers still exist but I mean overall). this type of inaccuracy doesn't occur with modern missile systems. if you put Israel's strikes back in October, they pick the Target and landed every shot on target. Iran, despite its missile development can't seem to hit things properly. stil can do damage but, if your goal is to hit Israeli military infrastructure, you're not doing a good job. if anything, if your goal was not to hit civilian centers and you keep on hitting civilian centers, you're just going to get your civilian centers bombed.

Spoiler: It's not really a matter of secret technology. Repeated use of bunker buster bombs would be able to do it. But there are a few issues.

1. The bunker busters required are extremely heavy and can only really be dropped from heavy bombers.

2. Heavy bombers are extremely vulnerable to surface to air missiles.

3. Iran is very mountainous so there are only a limited amount of areas and angles you can actually drop the bombs without them clipping the side of a mountain.

It's a very complex operation to actually use bunker busters on Iran, and it would need to be done repeatedly to hit their top nuclear facilities and underground missile cities. There's no signs of them actually doing this yet. It's been much easier to hang out in Iraqi airspace and launch missiles and drones. So I'm not really sure what Israel's strategy is here other than trying to possibly force a surrender? There's only so much that can be done doing what they're doing now.

Iran was better under the Shah than it is now, even Stevie Wonder can see that.


Killing the Ayatollah might very well make the whole region explode.


"Three days to Kiev"

The point is the Shah is what lead to the current state of Iran. The Shah of Iran was an old-style monarchic despot. The same thing with the Tsars in Russia. Except the Russians went down the path of Communism and revolution. The Iranians went down the path of theocratic authoritarianism. They didn't do the whole Communism and revolution bit. People react in different ways. Kind of like how the Germans went through very hard times and turned to fascist authoritarianism. Though a segment of the German population was also going over to the Communist side. Hitler and National Socialism pulled people away from the Communists. The US pretty much caused the rise of the current government and situation in Iran by propping up the Shah puppet state.

How can you expect Iran to behave like a modern country? 70 years ago Kermit Jr came to town with $100,000 to spend and he permanently fucked up our utopian country in a few months.
It's a funny thing how the same people who are still crying over Operation AJAX in 1953 are adamant that we should stop talking about the Holocaust because it happened so long ago.

Nice room temperature IQ smooth brain take.

Damn that oil storage in Tehran is still burning big and spreading to the remaining tanks, don't think it's gonna stop any time soon

 

[Stiffy]

Israel is still militarily and technologically superior to Iran in all categories, and that's not arguable. Iran has a large ground army roughly 610k, but they rely heavily on weaker reserves of up to 350k, and I recall reading that there's no age limit.
Israel has a smaller army 165k but they also have about a half million reserves. Better trained, and better equipped, and they have an estimated 90 nuke warheads which could turn Tehran into a parking lot if worst comes to worst. The bottom line is Iran cannot beat Israel without significant outside help. Russia, China etc.

 

[Welfare Bum]

More Iranian missile strikes on Israel. Exact location not clear. Late warning sirens, damn.

I agree. I would think that nuclear strikes are off the table barring an existential threat to Israel, as using even a single tactical nuke instantly would make them a major pariah on the world stage. Despite what some people think, Israel isn't universally hated, but if they were the first to step over that line post WW2 any positive attitudes towards them would evaporate quicker then the Iranians they nuke.

It's just a 6 ton missile with 500kg bomb. It is the length of a bus because it sits on a military truck. Diameter is only like 2m.

Israel invented a laser version of the iron dome that was suppose to be deployed in October but they pushed it foward a few months so it's active now.

That works on drones, not on these.

Looks like random barrage. Source is whatever israelis are reporting is being hit on various videos.

Then as targeting got better mega-tonnage went down because they could guarantee the hits would happen (yes I know the city killers still exist but I mean overall).

It went up from uranium to plutonium cores and down as lower fissile limit is reached earlier with better efficiency. Current preference is multiple smaller warheads with plutonium core and tritium igniter as damage per kg is greater. Similar to cluster bombs.

That looks like a failed AA launch

These are maneuvering missiles after all. I am amazed they went into paralel trajectory then slammed down. Gives you 0 warning. Pretty interesting tech as it has missile defense avoidance system built in.

LIVE FROM IRAN:

DEMOCRACY IS BAD IF WE ONLY HAD DEMOCRACY/ELECTED GOVERNMENTS WHICH ARE ELECTIONED WE WILL BE RULED BY THE USA AND ZIONISTS.


also she said that "I want to be more upset for my iranian country men but I feel more for my Palestinians brothers because we are all brothers in islam"


oh and " we have shot down nearly all of the zionist rockets and we are inflecting damage which they have never seen before and are unable to counter"


and your classic: Israel is hitting civilians while we are only hitting military zionist targets.


Seriously does anyone recommend any software? This shit is amazing.


You know at least al-jazeera, RT and middle East eye PRETEND to be "western and unbias" on their English feeds. But I'm enjoying the brazenness of the Iranians.
