File under: Govt of Iran Proxies

#1 Officials told CBS News that the suicide drone attack was successful because the drone flew behind a U.S. drone that was returning to the base after a mission

IFF?

#2 ...It also means that we were doing things in a steady, predictable pattern that had been observed and analyzed.

This sort of thing happened in both Europe and the Pacific during WWII - the Germans and Japanese figured out that even with IFF they could sneak individual aircraft through and land a punch.

#3 Biden Ripped After Admin Leaks What Its Plans Are For Military Response

While we are mourning our loses of our soldiers.
Boiled down, they sent a drone as payback, after we sent a drone.

Now Biden has his 2024 election year reason to escalate the situation.

Say ... Iran decides to retaliate going total war and using ground troops.

Some issues the US will immediately face.

Iran's army is estimated at 585K (when including terrorist cells and groups)

ISLAMIC Unity kicks in, as a another Fatwa will be issued declaring a Holy War. That Islamic troop number will quickly raise to 1+ million and tons of locally contributed supplies will follow.

Any Holy War protesters there, will either be shot protesting or jailed awaiting execution.

Plus Iran has plane loads of Billions in EU-CASH to spend on its war.

VS.

U.S. military has around 54K in the middle east and about 10% of that are non-combat support personnel. Which ties up more US Troops and resources. Resources like fuel, medical, food, ammo, weapons and etc. that have to come from 1,000's of miles away to maybe just get there.

Depending on the US Metro. US War protesters/Rioters/Looters will be hailed by the MSM and LSD's as patriots. A handful, at most, might die accidentally 1 in a 500 maybe jailed overnight.

Then there is the CCP, Taiwan, Panama Canal area issues at play and the likely 1000+ or so, terrorists that already here due to open borders.

#5 Great headline.

“The blow must be so devastating that Tehran orders its proxies to stand down.”

I must have missed The Plan.

#6 IFF?

Depends upon how close the airframes are and the resolution the radar being used can detect and at what range and if it had a query capability. In theory, 'IF' a AWACs was covering the area, the launch of the second drone could have been detected. Now if the systems where syched through something like TADIL J, the second drone would have been tagged as hostile by the AWAC and the data feed the defensive systems command and control systems (if any) at the base.

#7 All great suggestions.

Here's another...
The dumbshit OPS were notified there was a Pred returning for rearm/refueling but were too busy playing grabass to monitor the incoming track.

#8 Seems it would be easy to plan friendly approaches so any piggybackers would follow right over a little observation post staffed with a few guys with MANPADs.

#9 esponsible for the deaths of the Americans "in the sense that they’re supplying the weapons to the people who did it."

We are supplying the weapons to the people who are committing the ethnic cleansing in Gaza.

What does that make us?

#10 Plus Iran has plane loads of Billions in EU-CASH to spend on its war.

Wheras we just magic new money into existence topay for all of our foreign wars, causing runaway inflation that is hurting Americans, especially those least able to afford it.

Someone's worried about losing a new war because we don't have enough troops?

How about losing a new war because the same people who lost against dudes with AKs in Afghanistan are in charge?

Hell, the Iranians will just have to charge forward and misgender our troops with bullhorns and they will break down crying and screaming about micro-aggressions.

Tell me again how this has ANY hope of winning a new war?

#11 In a real war, the Iran Navy would be taken out in about 6 hours. Their air force would last about 12 hours.

Hopefully at that point the army would overthrow the republican guard and the mullahs.

#16 IFF = if and only if.

Apparently it is also a military term. I infer also used in computer programming. I learnt it in math class — probably high school geometry for doing logic proofs.

#24 Don't forget the thousands of Iranian terrorists who were allowed into the U.S. via Biden's border policy. AND you can bet the chattering elite at Harvard, Yale, etc... will plan protests and disruptions.
