IRGC Ballistic Missiles Destroy Naval Targets at 1,800km Distance

[Stryker1982]

are there people here still questioning Irans ability to deal with cruise missiles? I sincerely hope american military planners are equally stupid.

It's not that Tomahawk cruise missiles are impossible to deal with for Iran. It's the sheer volume that can be launched in saturation from multiple attack vectors. That is the primary concern.

They can strike from the South, West, and even the Black Sea over Georgia and Azerbaijan.

Every country that leaves its airspace open to one side of War will be considered as the immediate threat be it Azerbaijan or anyone else. They will risk Iranian response by land intervention. If they can't secure their airspace then we can do it wholeheartedly .

Yes, for their sake, they should be warned of the consequences if they allow their airspace be used for an attack.

Although some of these countries are powerless to stop the US from ignoring their requests for neutrality and using their airspace anyways.

Cruise missiles are intended to avoid radars yes by flying low but i was not talking about OTH radars. The precise radars such as Ghadir with 1600 KM range can detect low flying cruise missiles. The radar is specifically designed for that purpose.


Any evidence that USA posssesses these hypersonic missiles? Any video of testing phase? Any sign of its existence? No, you are talking about R&D phase. In that regard, Iran is working on a 3500 KM anti ship ballistic missile. Iran is working on ship based radars that will be deployed to IRGC transformed ships, Iranian war ships will use VLS air defenses. So please Stop talking about the R&D.

That flying coffin B52 or B1 that you are boasting about are nothing but moving targets for our air defenses. Not to mention that all of military bases Hosting them are well within range of Iran’s missiles.

You kidding right? The U.S. tested the hypersonic missile just last year. You should ask before you start answering assuming we don't have any. And the USAF is testing the new missile this year. As I have said, these will become a reality soon. Its not far from reality as you said.

They also tested a new IRBM test just after leaving the INF treaty.

Watch the Pentagon test a previously banned ballistic missile

The launch of a "prototype conventionally-configured ground-launched ballistic missile" is the first in a post-INF world.

Watch the Pentagon test a previously banned ballistic missile

WASHINGTON — The U.S. has tested a ground-launched, intermediate-range ballistic missile with a range of more than 500 kilometers, the first such test since the country withdrew from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty this year.
The test, which occurred Thursday at 8:30 a.m. PST, was configured to represent a conventional warhead. The test was anticipated for months, with Defense Department officials previously indicating they hoped to have it happen before the end of the year.
“The U.S. Air Force, in partnership with the Strategic Capabilities Office, conducted a flight test of a prototype conventionally configured ground-launched ballistic missile from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California,” Pentagon spokesman Robert Carver said in a statement. “The test missile exited its static launch stand and terminated in the open ocean after more than 500 kilometers of flight. Data collected and lessons learned from this test will inform the Department of Defense’s development of future intermediate-range capabilities.”

Same for a ground based Tomahawk. Easily ready to be develop and deploy soon. Not hard to find a missile truck for it. Probably can use one of these probably carry 4 to 8 missiles. Meant for THAAD missiles, but the size is comparable. Imagine just having a dozen of them. Thats about 96 missiles there.

You won't be shooting down the B-52s or B-2s because they can launch from half way around the world, they were designed to take on the Soviet Union at the time. And they have been upgraded with new systems and weapons. Unless Iran has air defense that can reach out to 1,000km range, you won't hit them. And if you decided to bomb the hosting nations, its understandable that you have to, just remember that you will be bombing those countries and just forcing them to join the U.S. side in any future conflict with Iran.

I think he meant if the B-52 were stationed in Qatar or something which as you say; why do that when you can fire from 1000km away.

Are hypersonic GVs expected to be in full production in 2022 or 2021?

Reality of an attack would likely be dozens from B-52s launched from mainland USA and several Ticonderoga class ships firing some 1000 missiles (Assuming USA intends on full scale war instead of limited narrow scoped operation like solely targeting nuclear facilities and Oil & Gas production which imo is the mostly likely type of operation)

Why put an SSGN in Hormuz from few miles away from Iran's shores when you can launch it from 1000km away? You figure out why they do something like that.

I would say hypersonic missiles in U.S. arsenal won't come into full production for at least 5 years. Right now they want weapons like ground based Tomahawks and IRBMs that can be deployed sooner. I would say the USAF would probably be the first to have their operational before the U.S. Army and Navy. The Navy will be last because the Virginia Block 5 won't be out for awhile and the surface ships currently won't be able to carry such a weapon. Only the IRBMs or something like that on large expeditionary bases would be more realistic.

 

[Maarkhoor]

Why Pakistan is unable to achieve such capabilities? BTW congratulations to Iran.

Because we are not making tall claims out of thin air....

I suppose they are confident that It will be safe?

 

[Oldman1]

Was it sunk?

 

[Stryker1982]

Was it sunk?

Nope, but theirs also no war.

I'd imagine they are confident that they can use subs in the gulf to launch salvoes without being targeted by anti-shipping missiles.

They'd only have to worry about mini-subs but also the whole gulf would probably be swimming with US mini drone submarines.

He should name himself senile not oldman. First of all we were talking about A2/AD Suddenly he jumped into discussion asking about radar range of Iran.
We also were talking about radars and cruise missiles challenging their detection capability. I asked him about the hypersonic cruise missile that USA possesses and here we saw him boasting about a land launched ballistic missile which can be easily challenged by IRGC presence in Indian ocean. Even if their subs or ships fired BMs towards our airspace, IRGC will respond by tactical ICBMs.
