2025 Israel vs Iran War

draggs said:
Bruh Iran has been firing hypersonics the whole time. Regular old ballistic missiles reach hypersonic speeds too. They are at like 8% of their missiles getting through

Hypersonic and ballistic missiles differ significantly in their flight characteristics, maneuverability, and interception challenges. Ballistic missiles follow a high-arching trajectory, leaving and re-entering the atmosphere at hypersonic speeds, and are primarily guided during the initial boost phase and terminal phase.

In contrast, hypersonic weapons travel faster than Mach 5 and maintain a lower altitude during flight. They are capable of maneuvering mid-flight, which makes their flight path less predictable. This maneuverability allows them to evade traditional missile defense systems that rely on predicting a fixed trajectory.

Bruh there is a difference.

The Chief of CENTCOM is Michael Kurilla the Gorilla, and did a lot of very dirty work in Afghanistan during 2008 with the 75th and JSOC. He's also under investigation for shoving an airman while being asked to put his safety buckle on a flight (was probably drunk). He was also the one who gave (and is probably still giving) SECDEF classified material, which led to SignalGate.

Of course CENTCOM is totally up for war. They fail for a living. Just like they failed the Houthi campaign, they can't pass the opportunity to fail, because they are born losers.

Iran has been firing both kinds and there have been hypersonics intercepted too. Some of both kind have got through. Just like in Ukraine. The ability of hypersonics to avoid the top interceptor systems was exaggerated, they can and have been intercepted in both the wars they've been used in

You can really tell Bibi is out of touch with American political realities because he said "Tomorrow it's New York". As if most people who visited New York didn't fucking hate it. And no D'Jarious, I will not be hustled out of my money to buy your gay Rap mixtape.

He's just using it as an analogy. I wouldn't care if NYC or LA got bombed today, but its a striking visual. Attempting to draw the US in, but so far Trump has said "no, no".

Sadly most of the shill sphere groids I keep tabs on have been quiet the last few hours....dunno why....but the griftiest of them all is still xeeting like a dumpster full of pajeets

As for me I am curious what tonight will bring, and if the downward trend of missile numbers holds, because if that shit starts petering out now while Israel is still working down its laundry list in Iran then the coming week is gonna be real fuckin skibidi

Allow me to cite what Tucker previously declared last week once again

Iran may not have nukes, but it has a fearsome arsenal of ballistic missiles, many of which are aimed at US military installations in the Gulf, as well as at our allies and at critical energy infrastructure. The first week of a war with Iran could easily kill thousands of Americans. It could also collapse our economy, as surging oil prices trigger unmanageable inflation. Consider the effects of $30 gasoline.

But the second week of the war could be even worse. Iran isn’t Iraq or Libya, or even North Korea. While it’s often described as a rogue state, Iran has powerful allies. It’s now part of a global bloc called BRICS, which represents the majority of the world’s landmass, population, economy and military power. Iran has extensive military ties with Russia. It sells the overwhelming majority of its oil exports to China. Iran isn’t alone. An attack on Iran could very easily become a world war. We’d lose.

I agree, but the advantage of "modern hypersonics" is the lower altitude of their flight path making the defenders more reliant on air defenses closer to the target. Whatever happened to the airborne chemical laser missile defense systems that were promoted in the 90's?

The Secretary of Defense is kind of authorized to see any material the military has unless the president specifically denies authorization

The Houthi campaign failed so hard that the Houthis gave up trying to hit commercial shipping 6 months ago and their biggest success firing at Israel was hitting a road on the perimeter of Ben-Gurion airport lol

I think they gave up on that and destructive laser weapons in general. Israel is supposed to make Iron Beam operational later this year. With the incredible range of 6 whole miles. The power requirements for a laser that can awkshoolly damage or destroy the target at the desired range has been a big obstacle that no one has got over yet. So instead they've focused on the equivalent of shining a big laser pen to blind the sensors on missiles

Just ignore CENTCOM. That's what I do.
