Main problem I see with that system is the requirement of human operators for the gun and on a vehicle that size the AAA should be remotely operated from inside a protected control room on the vehicle with advanced software, ability to network into other near by systems and various sensors that...
A good number of Yemeni UAV's also look similar to Iranian UAV's but that doesn't necessarily mean they were built in Iran! Yes it's quite possible and likely that they received spec's, a few hard to produce parts and components from Iran but the rest Yemeni's did themselves.
Fact is Yemen is...
Iran's been under sanctions for 40 years and yet remains as one of the fastest growing nations in Science and Technology so if anything sanctions have helped Iran's scientific growth.
Now in terms of space technology the slow down in SLV developments and launches has more to do with miss steps...
I would say it's more misleading then a lie because Iran's annual Military parades were coming up so yea mid September of every year Iran readies weapons for it's parade and in the weeks prior Iran usually tests or showcases new weapons, moves around fighter jets,.....
So US Sat's picking up...
How many of these cruise missiles do you think Iran would need to fire at a single mid size Air Force base to effectively disable it?
Don't get me wrong, Iran most defiantly needs limited payload, low cost cruise missiles similar to this however, the whole point of having low cost cruise...
It may be a good system for testing various sensors, navigation & guidance systems for LACM but not a good system for practical military use for ground launched land attack cruise missiles.
For cruise missiles you'll need a high rate of fire due to their limited speed during terminal guidance...
Strategic Patience only pertains value when you have clearly proven your capability (Technical, industrial, financial,...) on top of a clear will to conduct a strategic Jump in a relatively short timespan if ever pushed.
Now when it comes to the Missile program since it's under IRGC command and...
LOL! How delusional do you have to be???
1st off Israel currently has a total of 16 F-35's in it's fleet! How many targets do you think you can hit with 16 F-35's against a country as large as Iran especially if you plan to fly in stealth mode which means only carrying weapons inside your...
We'll have to disagree on your assessment that Iran could retaliate against U.S. soil without having a nuclear deterrence. Again, simply put a U.S. President reckless enough to start a war with a country as powerful as Iran will no doubt be reckless enough to respond to a conventional ICBM...
No one says the U.S. doesn't have the power to down Iranian drones! If Iran can shoot down a Global Hawk then clearly the U.S. could easily shoot down Iranian drones! If Iran can Jam, spoof & hack RQ-170, MQ-1C, RQ-7 & Scan Eagles then clearly the U.S. has the capability to do the same!
What...
LOL! According to the US Military it's self they took down a freaking Quad from less than 1000 yards!!! So it was nothing more than a Quad and more likely than not a Civilian operated one that had nothing to do with Iran's Military that was actually operating a fixed wing Mohajer-4 at the...
A few questions
1. On an ICBM why can't an INS corrected by counter imaging & or radar mapping technology capable of identifying and filtering clouds.... be used for trajectory correction before you get to the Atlantic & again be used for terminal guidance once over the Atlantic and up until a...
Right because a large fleet of U.S. aircrafts and tomahawks are going to penetrate Iran's Air Defense and take out all the air defenses of a country larger than U.K., France, Germany & Italy combined while simultaneously hitting all 40 or so Iranian missiles bases with bombs as heavy as an F-16...
Just as advancements in U.S. missile program never stop for a second after Von Braun's passing, the murder of Tehrani Mogdam as tragic as it was turned out to be nothing more than a hiccup in the overall history of Iran's missile program.
In under a decade since his passing Iran's precision...
For Urban patrol you can't afford the shrapnel from a direct hit killing a civilian let alone having a miss or malfunctioning projectile do far more harm then the assailants ever could....
For Urban and highly populated suburban areas being able to launch armed Quad type versions from various...
LOL! You think I'm under the delusion that the U.S. or any EU power gives a damn about international law or human rights????
My opposition to what they did has NOTHING to do with International Law, rather proper strategy and tactics and weighing in short term and long term pro's and con's...
Yes however every countries embassy is nest of spy's and it's the same for all countries including Iranian embassies abroad the key is not getting caught and the fact is there was a better way to handle it. And I wouldn't like them storming into any of our embassies any more than they liked us...
It depends on how far your target is, the terrain, how many systems you have, how well hidden they can remain & how fast they can go operational and how well trained your crews are...
But yes 3rd of Khordad by it's self would have trouble against stealth aircraft for example even flying at an...
Well maybe you should check sources directly from the IRGC because those are the guys who had a lock on it and shot it down and they say +51,000ft!!!
-30 dB is about the least of what an F-117 & F-35 put out under perfect conditions! -40 decibels for an F-22 again in the best of conditions...
Well they are only going based on sections of the recovered structure not the entire aircraft with sensors and all....
Iran also video taped the launch with missile pointed directly at them so clearly this was no accident...
One of the reason why the U.S. would purposely wanna fly on the...
