Iranian Ground Forces | News and Equipment

I give zero shits about politics, I care for Iran be it Shahi or IRI. The need of the hour is that we put the Taliban into their place before the pedos start a front on the east. We need to take a stand otherwise the IRI persona of toughness will be shattered and then the Azerbaycan rep, Turkey, Israel, Taliban, and Persian Gulf Arabs will be up our ***. This is no time for weakness, leadership needs to wake up before there will be another repeat of Saddam's invasion of Khuzestan.

Agreed… a strong resolute response (kinetic) is potentially needed to set status quo. Building up of forces in the East is now a must, not a suggestion but a requirement.

If any Taliban faction wants to test Iranian territorial integrity. Then so be it, annihilate whatever asset they have that gets close to the border. At the very least, let legitimate intent be known so they understand the consequences.

Those armed drones must be good for something…

Comparing Saddam’s top 5 military (in size) and major oil producer to the Taliban with some leftover American equipment and no money is laughable.

War requires money, gasoline, rations, and logistics all of which the Taliban are severely short in. Invasion is a whole lot different than hiding in a bush and doing asymmetric warfare then running back into a cave or blending into civilian population.

Thinking the Taliban is going to “invade” Iran is not in the realm of reality. They are a welfare state heavily reliant on Iran, Pakistan, China, and Russia for trade. Any invasion would run out of steam after the first 5KM when warplanes and helicopters blow them to bits on the desolate border.

I am sorry but that's just a BS logic that because enemy forces comprise of guerilla fighters then we should just keep on neglecting our buildup in the border region. Birjand is almost a dysfunctional AB. Iranshahr and Saravan are not well equipped either. Taliban drove in American APCs in the battle zone, where are they parked and why did not IRGC burn the entire compound to ash the way Israel does in Syria to punish the pedo warlords ? Just because they currently have no symmetric strength does not mean we should repeat the mistake of ignoring the enemy's intention. Iranian lives matter ... why the boy who died was not avenged right there? a salvo of Zelzals can flatten the nearby base where these pedo lords hang out with their child brides. Do it today, save Iranian lives tomorrow.

Perception of power is sometimes a bigger factor in war than actual power itself. Had Iran shown the real fangs with its superior IRIAF to Saddam early in 1980 during the border skirmishes, war would have never happened. IRIAF did not intercept the surprise aerial strike which failed because of Baathist stupidity otherwise they would have destroyed much of the FAB tomcat fleet. Same way if we do not punish the Taliban for them firing a single bullet into Iran RIGHT NOW they will keep on shooting at our border guards, continue attacking the posts, and may even start a terror bombing campaign in Khorasan (using diaspora) the way they do and our perception of a strong state will be shattered which has so far kept Turkey, Azerbaijan, Israel, Saudis away from misadventures with Iran.

Taliban would not occupy Mashhad but they can and will keep on killing border guards and attacking some border posts. Their officials are talking of conquering Tehran and our officials are talking of Islamic brotherhood. The fact remains that IRI has continued the tradition of Shahi Iran of neglecting the eastern border. If US+Israel start funding the Taliban, we will have more pain in the east then we can have in the west.
 
Taliban is tantamount to an annoying fly. However this gives Iran a good reason now to build up its eastern borders. I don't think these Taliban realise just how easily their whole country can end up being split into multiple pieces if they're not careful.

In terms of a conventional war, the Taliban stands as much chance as the Somali pirates. Their entire battle strategy would be hit and run terrorist type attacks. Their only capability is to make life harder for an invading ground force, however Iran will be blowing them to pieces from the air. In terms of ground, Iran will end up funding allied groups in Afghianistan and the Taliban will end up losing major chunks of Afghanistan and then Iran could balkanise them at will.

If the Taliban had any sanity, they would be kissing Iran's feet and begging it for support. But with these illiterate troglodytes, logic has at best a 50/50 success rate.

I do not think anybody is expecting them to invade Iran. The problem is this boy died at the hands of those sand pedos

There will be plenty more of these boys sent to their graves for nothing if we do not make the price of Iranian life COSTLY for them. They kill one of ours, we need to kill 30 of them along with one or two depots of their US leftovers so the local warlord feels the material pain.

This is why I always say that before we gain respect of others we need to respect ourselves. No Iranian life should go unavenged to the point that next time the enemy thinks 10 times before any adventure.

Plenty of Iranian soldiers die in Kurdistan, Baluchistan—within Iran’s borders.

Yet you want them to draw the line at border guards? Most border guards die to smugglers.

How many died in Syria to Israeli airstrikes? How many Generals died? Allahdadi was assassinated in broad daylight by Israeli drones/munitions. What was the response?

This is a gripe going on for years —Iran’s lack of response and lack of value of life for its armed forces dating back to the imposed war when tens of thousands (if not hundreds) died in human wave tactics and poor war planning.

While your thoughts are noble, there is zero chance of fundamental change in Iranian military philosophy at this point in time. Taliban won’t change that.

Taliban is a mosquito..

This mosquito also has malaria

I am more concerned about the potential for refugee crises, terrorism and instability in Afghanistan under these guys personally. Their hard power in the ground is severely limited with their lack of heavy armour. Otherwise they can have 10,000 American APCs, it's really just a luxury transport vehicle to move man around that a normal car could do behind your front line.

Smugglers are criminals and Kurdish fighters are designated terrorists. Talibans are recognized government of Afghanistan. Them shooting a bullet at Iran is Afghanistan State attacking Iran State.

Irrelevant. End result is the same—dead Iranian soldiers.

Is Iranian death at the hands of Taliban somehow more meaningful than at the hands of a smuggler or PKK or Baluchistan terrorist? Of course not.

But this common theme in Middle East. Human life is valued much less than western counterparts.

Well usually if a foreign country attack you and kill your soldiers it usually considered more serious than when it happen at the hand of smugglers

If the officially recognized government of Afghanistan (By Iran) is attacking a border guard of Iran then yes it is much different than some terrorist gang doing a terror activity.

Israel is also in Middle east, if the official government forces of their bordered states kill of one of Israeli soldiers intentionally, Israel will open war on that country. They have done that in past. The Iranian government needs to set this precedent. 20 x Ballistic missiles/Rockets on the depots/government buildings for 1 Iranian life. Local sand-pedo commander of taliban needs to be taught what they do not understand. They are gonna run out of cash in 1-2 years anyways and there will be civil war again among these child groomers so Iran needs to maintain its fear on bordering areas.

The locations are probably already set if a homeland agression starts, probably with an order of missiles to launch first to neutralize radars and AD and cyber troops, then a second volley of big ordnance. I don't know though if Iran has direct control of Hezbollah to start a close range ballistic missile attack from the north, combined with everything they have

Neither do i know if Iran can order Hezbollah to start sending on foot troops to enter occupied lands and clash, skirmish with the IDF ground forces, this would be a problem since Hezbollah soldiers are battle hardened, does not really care of soldier loss, contrary to IDF. Mass destruction of Lebanon wouldn't change anything but making it worse for Israel

Though i think this will not happen for at least ten years since the current situation of the world and the printing of money is absurd for western countries specially EU, not like this is the Kippur war and that reinforcements in mass would arrive without any problem and quickly.
