butthurt (((Babak))) blocked me on Twitter because I called him out several times on his bulls...
he is a joke
Babak Taghvaee the "Military expert" has tweeted about how IRGC is just stealing Iran's money and that the IRIAF's F-4s/Su-24s would have been much more effective at hitting ISIL. He fails to see that there is noway that the U.S would allow IRIAF to hit targets so close to its own forces (3 Kilometers!) especially having seen what the U.S did to the SAAF Su-22 that got to close to SDF territory while bombing ISIL. This attack by the IRGC was a great show that with all the talk about their anti-Missile capabilities, the U.S was unable to counter IRGC's missiles and UCAVs hitting only 3 kilometers away from their heavily defended illegal ground troops on Syrian soil.
Some one needs to tell him:
IRGC shames Iran's Air Force on a yearly bases! The fact that IRGC was able to build it's self Jet Powered UCAV's with an internal weapons bay and the Air Force still hasn't built a prototype MALI UAV superior to the Sh-129 tells you all you need to know!
And hitting targets 500km away with missiles is more about the message being sent or else Iran could have targeted those sites from inside Syria for a fraction of the cost of sending F-4's and Su-24's from Iran but doing that wouldn't of delivered a clear message to the people funding them for Iran's outdated Air Force doesn't really scare anyone!
IRGC gave Iran at the very least one of the top 10 most powerful Missiles Forces in the world starting with no more than a few imported Scuds all done within 30 years and with limited funding where as the IRAF still hasn't been able to reverse engineer and produce the F-14's they've had let lone build something better hell they haven't even been able to build it's self a better BVR missile than the +40 year old AiM-54's!
If the IRIAF had built and tested a single flying prototype of a true supersonic 5th generation fighter and a stealth Jet powered UCAV then they could of nagged about the IRGC getting all the funding and having all the fun. As the wise man said "As shoma harikat as khoda barikat! Fellan keh ma as bad as jang ta imrooz as NAHAJA barayeh moghabeleh ba Tahreem ha kami Ghayrat nadeedeem
And they have their own facilities, tools, spare parts that can be used and manpower and prototypes don't have to be made out of Ti they could have mixed steel, aluminum,.... & composites and worried about weight reduction, range, Hi G capability,.... later!
