US - Israel - Iran War

Do propaganda within limits. I do not know of a single 'rational' Iranian who will agree with this statement. Source: BBC news.
If they make a implosion uranium bomb like China then they have a chance of having a usable nuclear weapon though this is unlikely imo. If they make a crude gun type uranium bomb which Iran can do imo in literal days, then even if they test it, they cannot make it deliverable by missiles. And we all know Iran ain't stupid enough to use F14 or F4 as nuclear delivery vehicles lol.
Never underestimate the Mullah regime of Iran. When desperate they will do anything. They have been whipped by the Israelis and Americans, yet as they stand naked in the town square they will continue to yell "Look at these fine clothes gents".
Iran attacked the US military base Al-Udeid in Qatar with Ghadr-H ballistic missiles, the operation was called "Good News of Victory". It is worth noting that the US was warned about the missile attack by Iran, this was reported in Washington. The Qatari Ministry of Defense stated that air defense systems successfully repelled the missile attack on the Al-Udeid air base in Doha. Qatar used the Patriot and THAAD air defense systems of American manufacture to repel the attack, you can see their work in the video.
Unmolested, never.
But if USA agree to spent billions for 100+ B21 it's not without some good reasons. They are THE specialist in stealthy bomber.
If it is as serious as the Ormuz strait blocade....
Footage of the fall of an Israeli Hermes-900 tactical UAV shot down by Iranian air defense has been published. The Hermes-900 UAV was shot down near the city of Khorramabad, the administrative center of the Lorestan province. This is the third Hermes-900 UAV shot down in Iran. The Hermes-900 UAV was developed by the Israeli company Elbit Systems in 2011. Drones of this type are equipped with satellite communication systems, optical-electronic surveillance systems and other components for reconnaissance. It is possible to install strike weapons. The take-off weight of the Hermes-900 UAV is up to 900 kg, the payload weight is 300 kg. The drone's flight speed is up to 220 km / h at altitudes of up to 9150 meters. The flight range of the Hermes-900 UAV is up to 1500 kilometers, the duration is up to 36 hours. The price of the Hermes-900 UAV is about 25 million dollars.
The Ayatollahs and the IRGC can only lick their wounds. An absolute disaster for them.
The IRGC's capabilities have taken a severe hammering. The regime will suffer tremendously economically. To tighten their grip on power and stifle dissent, the Ayatollahs will become even more oppressive and further damage Iran. And the intelligentsia will leave in droves.
Had there been a regime change, then Iran would have rebuilt and eventually surpassed Israel even though US would have ensured its subservience. This recuperation of Iran is unacceptable to Israel.
Hence it suits Israel very well to go for a ceasefire now after dealing such devastating blows to its arch rival while also allowing the regime to linger on.

"This mother****** Jew is making me look like a fool!" Trump in his head probably.
Food For Thought : If this is the kind of damage Iran with its not so sophisticated BMs with MaRV & CMs are capable of in spite of the most sophisticated BMD system guarding their skies, what exactly are we up against when we go head on with China can be imagined?!
Granted India's no Israel in terms of depth but that's part of my assessment - a relatively smaller area with a high concentration of IADS should be relatively easier to defend against a concentrated attack . Or isn't it the case?
Guess it's time to revive the Sino Indian war gaming thread & hopefully this time we keep it factual, not full of bad faith posting & arguing for the sake of it, if you know what I mean.
@Rajput Lion
These kind of BMs need new-gen BMD systems. Hopefully our BMD Phase II with AD-1 & 2 are good enough. Also that's why we're looking to procure S-500s too. GOI knows the threat China possesses with its large BM force.
You're right. I too said in my post - Iran won't surrender.'. They will only cook themselves slowly. Sad for a country with such rich history.
Pak not being an important military threat does not mean any incapability to inflict serious damage. As out CDS said - both sides displayed rational behaviour during the conflict. Implicit in this statement is that Pak can cause a lot of damage to us.
Other than some parts of the Islamic world, no one likes Pak's nukes.
