      I’m impressed at how fast the air defenses of these Gulf countries are fading. Iran is launching like 90% fewer missiles and drones than at the start, but it looks like the daily damage hasn’t really dropped much

      With the two that collided yesterday that’s 7 refuelling aircraft taken out of operation in two days. Big oof.

      But hey yeh we can totally sail some Marines through the Strait and take Kharg Island.

      Fucking morons.

      I’ve the feeling the US doesn’t have an infinite amount of refueling planes. And that it’s kind of the Achilles‘ heel of this whole operation.

      At this rate hosting a US base in your country will become a massive liability. It’s like painting a fucking bullseye on your forehead.

    11. foomadelica on

      If true that’s seven lost or damaged in two days.

      Gonna have to wait for confirmation

      Well that’s why they’re leaning on the private satellite companies to withhold imaging.

      > Iran may be using a Chinese satellite navigation system to target Israel and United States military assets in the Middle East, intelligence experts say.

      > Former French foreign intelligence director Alain Juillet told France’s independent Tocsin podcast this week that it is likely that Iran has been provided access to China’s BeiDou satellite navigation system because its targeting has become much more accurate since the 12-day war with Israel in June.

      I am sure Russia gave the Iranians the intelligence so Its a good thing we are lifting sanctions as a thank you

      Lost one the other day in Iraq. I wonder how many we have. This was a well thought power move. They can cripple the US military by attacking logistics especially the longer this war goes on.

      Iran is playing Sun Tzu Art of War. Trump is playing checkers.

      So like….has the US underperformed in this conflict?

      Like I thought they were all powerful and countries like Iran shouldn’t be able to score hits like this

      As an American, this government and the supporters of it, deserve to get shit kicked out of super power status. I pitty the innocent people who didnt vote for this, but fuck every MAGAt and pedophile defender. Any Americans paying taxes this year support the use of their funds.

      As a reminder, they gutted the IRS. Anyone paying out of fear of jail or fines are the same people who snitched on Jewish neighbors for fear of losing their finances.

      Edit: fuck the downvoters, you cowards have nothing to say beyond a simple tap on the screen. See you fucks in the upcoming civil war

      “They don’t have any army left. We took out their navy… we crippled them completely. They have nothing left. We pretty much completed everything and won”.

      Soon after Russia started the invasion of Ukraine, we started mocking how they shot their own foot.

      What is going on really looks familiar

      That was a plane that could have paid off your student debt, your car loan, your doctors bill, your insurance. 

      But noooooo, gotta take a fat shit on a wasps nest then be surprised when our asshole is stung 

    26. TyblosiinU on

      Why is everyone here acting like the US is supposed to be completely untouchable? Equipment gets destroyed in war. It’s happened in every war the United States has participated in.

    28. Blehe on

      But that pedo in the White House told his cult followingthe war was over ??? You mean to tell me a liar lied once again? Shocking

    29. geraldoh on

      One of the positive things that comes out of this we better learn some lessons and get our s* together before getting into a conflict with someone more capable.

      “The planes, which were hit during an Iranian missile strike on the Saudi base in recent days, were damaged but not fully destroyed and are being repaired; no one was killed in the strikes.”

    31. BiggieMoe01 on

      I have a feeling America seriously underestimated and miscalculated what the Iranians are capable of.

    32. Low_Foundation_9941 on

      The US is using AI to plan this illegal war. China and Russia are providing Iran with intelligence and China is realizing that the US isn’t that big of a threat. Good thing we’ve spent trillions and trillions of dollars on the military only to have our basses and plans so easily destroyed.

      I was watching flight radar this morning and they’ve had a ton of refulers leaving Tel Aviv and I watched one (and like 10k other people) a refuler cross over the Iraq boarder and turn off responder and ghosted. I knew something was going on

      ETA: KC135 right now flying close to Khark….
