And Iranian weapons kill dozens of Zionist settlers/soldiers every month. One nation is one of martyrs the other is super joon-doost lol.
He had a point though. The perception of Iran-VS-Israel is clear. Israel holds many high profile successes over Iran in sabotage and assassinations. Aside...
Many need to convey to others that Iran is some total authoritarian hell-hole with little to no redeeming qualities. So videos showing normal people just living life are an affront to their agenda.
It KILLS them to see Iranians just breathing and walking because it goes against the "Iran is...
Best Iran can do is mitigate Israeli efficacy in their sabotage/assassination campaign through whatever means as IDF-ISR around Lebanon and Syria is just too good. I think the bigger story here is, why Iran has allowed this low-intensity war to go on without establishing any deterrence.
The quality of domestically produced Iranian weapons varies but the efficiency in question: I assume is in reference to just how many can be produced and fielded per weapon type. Then Iran is quite adept in that regard.
Thousands of drones (combat proven), hundreds of AD (combat proven with...
I think Russia has leant Iran a trainer aircraft and that is what’s shown in the picture. Some OSINT people have postulated that it’s a “mock-up” which sounds sort of plausible but impractical given the nature of what we’re talking about here. Accurate dimensions along with other relevant data...
I’d take it one step further.
Why even have a mock-up that is painted in the first place when all you would ever need for reference is simple dimensions of the aircraft…
Looks awfully real for a simple mock-up…
I think many people underestimate just how fortified earthen structures repurposed for defense can be…rock (especially granite or other dense materials found in Mountains) can become very effective at protecting assets. Earth is hard to move, no matter what you’re using…
The misconception comes...
Fair enough, honestly I can’t tell just how confident Iran is in disclosing these tunnels but from the looks of it. We know (and so do they) that the mountains/hills these tunnels sit under are very tuff, so it really comes down to just how durable the construction of the tunnels walls and...
Although these tunnels were shown before:
I hope that there are other underground tunnels being built (or already completed) that can accommodate larger aircraft like the Su35 since this one doesn’t seem big enough.
It would not have made any practical difference to keep it “secret”.
Enemy...
I think there is a general lack of interest for Iranian military achievements and current capabilities amongst most Westerners as for years they’ve been told that Iran is a functionally weak country with no real armed forces and an inability to defend itself.
Those who know, know, the who don’t...
Was about to say, Israeli Fascist Netanyahu is domestically famous for signing off on Iran related operations ad-nauseam.
We don’t know the true extent of these attacks and if they were a distraction for more measure covert operations taking place in tandem.
But small drones hitting rooftops...
Good news honestly, the orders for Iranian made drones from Russia and other countries must have exceeded current production capacity.
Onwards and upwards!
On your point about the romanticizing of the Russian Federation, I think you make an important point. Whilst Iran’s support for Russia is principally sound and aligns with general anti-Western policy, that still doesn’t completely wash away the past between two countries.
You think there might...
