Was this the first time the U.S. ever lost an AWACS? And was it also the first time an F-35 was tracked and hit?
>>65232996An AEW variant of the Skyraider was shot down during the Taiwan Straits Crisis, that's probably the only instance.
>TrackedIt was an IR missile
>>65233006Luckily there aren't any systems that search and track using IR.
>>65232996This graphic counts damaged aircraft as outright losses? Has anyone even bothered making a cumulative graphic thing like this for Iran? Don’t remember seeing one. Would be kinda big I guess.
>>65233029Oh, I meant would be big because would include aircraft, as well as ships, armor, anti aircraft, infrastructure, etc.
>>65233029the iran losses are meaningless, its mostly old cold war shit and they will be getting a huge payout as part of the peace settlement that will allow them to buy their entire military several times over, they already received billions from the UAE recently
>>65233070>Iran gets access to billions in exchange for not being niggersKnowing Iran, that will be a short-term deal. But i feel like ive seen this type of deal before?
>>65233070I remember some shills for some other country saying it was all just cold war shit they don't need and could be effortlessly replaced. Wonder how that country's military is doing right about now?
>>65233029Iran used their airforce very sparingly and make extensive use of decoys so getting a hard number on aircraft losses is difficult. Only confirmed losses are Qatar shooting down two Su-24s in the opening stages of the war and a single Yak-130 shot down by a Yid F-35 (hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby).
>>65232996Thirdie seethe after Iran was supposed to humiliate America instead of being humiliated.
>>65232996>Iran does worse than rice farmers did 50 years agolol
>>65233070>the iran losses are meaningless, its mostly old cold war shitThis is massive cope. While its true that the majority of the planes they have are ancient (though not all), almost everything in both navies, all the subs that matter, all the UAVs, all the missiles, all the high-end AD equipment is all recently produced or imported.
>>65233637The rice farmers did so well because the US was stupid enough to put boots on the ground, this time they have learnt that's a bad idea.
>>65233732the most modern plane they have is the mig-29, the sukhois from russia havent arrived yettheir navy and missile launchers were a big loss yes, but they actively produce themtheir AD was either s-300 or some locally made shit of unknown qualitythe problem is that they will be getting a massive payout and can buy/rebuild most of what they lost within 5 years
>>65233070>the iran losses are meaninglesYou know, I really hope you never reach a position of power, neither in the military, in a company, in any political body or even in personal relationship, this is the sort of way of thinking which signals someone who is a complete waste of space and deserves nothing from life, you exemplifies everything wrong about Global South Societies.
>>65233013I wonder what you would call such a system if it were to existHypothetically, of course
This is like if in 2014 Brazil gloated about scoring a goal against Germany and never brought up Germany’s score ever.
>>65233794They have S-300 and HQ-9B. Neither have scored hits on anything but drones. It's their domestic IR SHORAD missiles doing all the heavy lifting.
Threadly reminder that this image is made by a literal-who thirdie "OSINT" twitter account, uses false numbers for pricing, and goes off of every unsubstantiated claim from Iran (though I think this particular one has been pulled back to verified losses only)
>>65232996What a fucking embarrassment, what a retarded war. Fuck this administration and especially fuck the absolute morons that still cannot admit what a disaster this is.
But Iran's supreme leader is still dead?
>>65233029Black is damaged. Red is destroyed. It's right there on the bottom right.
>>65234556They found another. Slightly singed, but usable
>>65233794So, you basically agree with every point I made and instead just wanted to doubledown on your intentionally provacative claim that I pointedly ignored?Got it. Super great approach you have to functional communication.
>>65234569>Slightly singed, but usableThis made me think of thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mb1rdQU1oAI
Good lord the BRICSlets are seething today. What gives?
>>65234110Yea, this war was a humiliating failure in every single respect. The way this thread is talking you'd assume there were Abrams rolling down the streets of Tehran. Are they all bots or something? Absolute bizzaro world.
