⚡North Korean leader Kim Jong Un inspected a newly modified Il-76 Airborne Early Warning (AEW) aircraft, marking the first of its kind for the Korean People’s Air Force. Additionally, he reviewed the Saetbyol-4—a North Korean copy of the U.S. RQ-4 Global Hawk—and oversaw the use of quadcopters and kamikaze drones. Notably, North Korea is actively involved in the conflict against Ukrainian forces and has been closely monitoring the evolution of drone warfare, likely drawing lessons for future engagements against South Korea and the United States. During the demonstration, North Korean forces employed these drones against static targets resembling U.S. Stryker MGS vehicles and M1A2 Abrams tanks. 4 Likes 1 Share |

shoodboi2:What on earth are you babbling about? 🤷🏼 Are you seriously dismissing multiple sources, including the IDF itself because they don’t align with your narrative? The IDF confirmed that some aircraft breached Iranian airspace during Operation, yet here you are, stubbornly arguing. Those S-300 systems are designed to intercept incoming missiles. Israel targeted these systems inside Iran to clear the skies for follow-up strikes. If standoff missiles alone were sufficient, why on earth would Israel bother neutralising air defences? 🤷🏼🤷🏼 As I’ve already stated, Israel deployed over 100 aircraft, including F-35s and F-15s, because direct engagement was necessary to ensure success. If standoff missiles could do the job, why would Israel send stealth fighters into hostile territory? What then was the point of neutralising air defences if you’re not planning to enter their airspace? Are you also aware there are reports of Israeli jets flying over Tehran and conducting live battle damage assessments? Are these jets just sightseeing?

Botragelad: 1. Your sources clearly mentions this in the first paragraph: These allowed Israeli jets to strike largely from beyond the reach of Iran's defenses and with fast flight paths, most likely from neighboring Iraq, that complicated efforts to shoot them down. There are no multiple reports of Israeli jets entering Iranian airspace. Only a few Israeli soldiers are claiming they entered Iranian airspace. Iran never said they did and neither did western media or the US government, which both Israel. Even the Israeli government never said they entered Iranian airspace. Botragelad: 2. Iran has many missiles systems and not just the S-300. So, if you insist they destroyed the S-300, what about the other missiles? For clarity, S-300 can shoot down aircraft and missiles. In this case, Iran used them to destroy the missiles and they worked perfectly well. There is no that the S-300 was destroyed. Botragelad: 3. How many times do we have to go over this? Air defenses can shoot down missiles. Specifically, the S-300 is very good at shooting down ground or air-launched ballistic missiles, which Israel extensively used in the attack on Iran. So, it is common sense for Israel to target them to keep them busy and reduce their possibility of intercepting missiles heading to other locations. Botragelad: If Israeli jets didn't enter Iran while bombing, what makes you think they will enter to conduct "battle damage assessments"? Who even does battle damage assessments by flying into hostile territory filled with anti-aircraft missiles? Countries use satellites or rely on intelligence aircrafts that fly in a safe zone. It's the same way NATO flies intelligence aircrafts over Poland to gather intel on Russian military movement in Ukraine. You don't need to fly directly over the target to gather Intel on them. Lastly, most of your analysis are based on "reports" and what you think rather than factual analysis. Reports by who? Reports is just someone talking. And what you (or anyone else) thinks is irrelevant to what happened. Instead of reports and what you think, why don't you focus on reality and factual analysis based on what happened and what you see, rather than what someone told you? Do you even know the missiles Israel used? No. But your sources mention that air-launched ballistic missiles were extensively used. And all these missiles can be carried by F-16s and F-35s. Do you know how big those missiles are and how they affect the performance of a jet? Each jet carried no more than one each of those missiles. That's why Israel had 100 jets on that attack. They also cause the aircraft to consume more fuel and reduce its range and ability to function properly. So if you insist Israel entered Iran, I should ask you how Israel refueled those jets? Israel may be dumb. But they are definitely not dumb enough to fly a heavy aircraft carrying a heavy missile into a country with an active air defence system. 3 Likes |

shoodboi2:Quit embarrassing yourself. You clearly didn't read that source I dropped there or how did you manage to miss this👇🏻👇🏻 and go off on a tangent! "Before the attack, leaked US intelligence documents mentioned a hitherto unknown Israeli air-launched ballistic missile, or ALBM, dubbed Golden Horizon and a long-range drone referred to as RA-01. Other known Israeli ALBMs, such as Rocks, Rampage, and Air LORA, have ranges of about 175 miles, enough to reach targets across Iran's border but insufficient for striking Tehran without entering Iranian airspace.[/i] "However, Israeli officials said some IDF aircraft entered Iranian airspace," Roblin said. "Penetrating flight may have helped with target acquisition and bomb damage assessment of certain point targets, or delivery of attacks requiring greater precision." It's likely that only F-35 stealth fighters, and possibly RA-01s, entered Iranian airspace while fourth-generation F-15s and F-16 jets kept their distance. The Rampage missile is 4.7 meters long, roughly 15 feet, meaning it cannot fit in the F-35's internal weapons bay. The Golden Horizon is most likely a similar size, if not larger. Carrying such a weapon externally would reduce the F-35's crucial stealth capabilities. If any F-35s entered Iranian airspace, they probably used smaller weapons carried internally. "By targeting Iran's best surface-to-air missiles — allegedly knocking out all of Iran's remaining S-300s — the attacks have also paved the way for future strikes to operate closer at reduced risk," Roblin said. "At the same time, Israeli sources declared that F-35s entered Iranian airspace, potentially to conduct accurate live battle damage assessment without necessarily delivering strikes," Borsari told BI. "Given that Israel destroyed or damaged key radar and air defense sites in Iran, its F-35s could operate in a less threatening environment SEE WHERE LIVE BATTLE DAMAGE ASSESSMENT, S_300 DESTRUCTION, ISRAELI WARPLANES BREACHING IRAN AIR, ETC ARE MENTIONED? You could have read the whole thing if you have no idea!🤷🏼 What credible evidence? Read up there, there is literally a firsthand s from military personnel but you dismissed that while simultaneously appealing to western media narratives as truth. I believe you will agree that soldiers on the ground (or in the air, as it were) are more likely to know whether their own aircraft breached enemy territory than CNN or the BBC? Or do you only trust reports when they align with your narrative? You can't just cherrypick. Lol. Fast flight paths originating from Iraq don’t necessarily preclude incursions into Iranian airspace. Tell us, what exactly qualifies as "beyond the reach of Iran's defenses"? Last time I checked, crossing borders tends to bring one well within range of those defenses. You state confidently that the S_300 worked “perfect no less!) at intercepting Israeli missiles. Yet , despite this, Tehran still suffered damage across multiple sites. Funny how the S-300 didn’t manage to stop dozens of precision strike(got destroyed still, read that source). What went wrong? Who said Israel needed to obliterate every single battery?😂😂😂 Even targeting key part could degrade its effectiveness enough to allow other missiles through. Are you aware? What happens when cloud cover obscures satellite imagery? What about warfare attempt to jam remote sensors? Common sense should tell you that modern stealth technology allows F-35s to operate undetected even in contested environment. What makes you feel assume Israel couldn’t have sent a small contingent deep into Iranian airspace for rapid reconnaissance? Yes, Israel indeed launched over 100 jets(like you agreed) carrying air-to-ground ballistic missiles, question is, why wouldn’t they maximize efficiency by refueling mid-air? Ever heard of tanker planes? Lol Again, why assume each jet carried only one missile? 😂😂 Modern fighters are designed to handle substantial loads. Read the source I sent, stop talking trash! Lol Answers to most of the questions you ask is boldly written there. 1 Like |

Botragelad: "Possibly, probably, may have helped, if, or, likely, most likely, allegedly, potentially, without necessarily, etc" The words above dominate every single paragraph from your "first-hand military " of the IDF, which has an excellent track record for honesty and transparency. There is not a single solid statement from any of the senfences you quoted, and you're trying to use them to your argument. Now as for your claim about the F-35's modern stealth technology, can you provide any evidence that it is effective against modern air defenses? For all that we know so far, the F-35 has been doing excellently against hospitals, schools, and mosques. And please, don't mention Syria. I take una god beg you. Now why should anyone buy Israel's claim about damaging multiple targets in Iran when you're not ready to accept Iran's claim about destroying several F-35s? Now assuming the F35 is truly immune to anything Iran has to offer, don't you worry about the wellbeing of those poor hypothetical refueling tankers in the face of an Iranian retaliation? Like the APC fanboy said, you need an English class. You do not understand the things you quote 2 Likes |

shoodboi2: You are a fool. Here's a comprehensive timeline of the Iran vs. Israel attacks in 2024, detailing what was destroyed and the interceptions that occurred: Timeline of Attacks April 1, 2024 Event: Israeli bombing of an Iranian military facility. Destruction: Targeted military assets, including weapons depots. Interceptions: None reported. April 13-14, 2024 Event: Iran launched missile strikes against Israel. Destruction: Several buildings and military installations in northern Israel. Interceptions: The Iron Dome intercepted approximately 70% of the incoming missiles. April 19, 2024 Event: Israeli response to Iranian missile strikes. Destruction: Additional Iranian military sites were targeted. Interceptions: None reported. October 1, 2024 Event: Iran launched between 180 and 200 ballistic missiles at Israel. Destruction: Significant damage to infrastructure and military targets in Israel. Interceptions: The Iron Dome intercepted around 60% of the missiles. October 26, 2024 Event: Israeli strikes against Iranian positions in Iraq and Syria. Destruction: Four S-300 air defense systems were taken out. Interceptions: None reported. October 28, 2024 Event: Further Israeli attacks on Iranian military assets. Destruction: Key military installations were damaged. Interceptions: None reported. Summary of Key Points Total Attacks: Multiple exchanges with significant escalation in April and October. Destruction: Various military assets and infrastructure on both sides. Interceptions: The Iron Dome played a crucial role, with varying success rates. Once their four S-300 PMPU missile defenses were taken out , IDF was free to roam over Iran airspace 2 days later. IDF also took out Syrian air defences to prevent Syria from warning Iran of a sudden large number of jet fighters heading Eastwards Idf6 can still fly in anytime , Iran will not fire up their air defences because of the HARM missile. 2 Likes |
