>Iran has hypersonic missiles
>Can't sink an aircraft carrier
Make it make sense 3rdaboos
>>
They aren't anti-ship missiles. Do you know how the missiles know where to go?
>>
>>529469855
This dumb yt pig think its a easy thing to sink the most powerful shit in human history
>>
>>529469855
US ships are staying well out of missile range as long as Iran's coastal batteries remain operational

The war has been on for what? 12 hours?
Anyways they don't have to sink it they just have to put a nasty hole in the flight deck.
>>
>>529469855
No one has ever targeted a ship with a ballistic missile before. I want to see it happen but it's doubtful they will waste any on a test like that.
>>
>>529470267
it's a pretty big target. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried.
>>
>>529469855
>make it make sense

ez. Mutts have been keeping their carriers as far away as possible because they know the missiles range. This also effectively locks the us out of effective nobmjng runs as well so iran doesn't mind and feels no need to send suicide boats out
>>
>>529469855
These dummies just sit and watch AI hype vids produced in india, that say that the US will be destroyed by le Iranian hyper McDouble cheese mega sonic no analogue missiles.
>>
>>529469855
Because of the two aircraft carriers in the region, one is parked off the coast of Israel and the other is way off in the Indian Ocean. In other words they're not chancing it.

People don't know how hyper sonic missiles work.
Hypersonic missiles have to go vertical into the upper atmosphere to become hypersonic (speed of sound decreases with altitude) When it comes back down it's much slower and easy to detect on radar.

>TLDR
Hypersonic missiles are not as good as you think.

holy fuck you are utterly retarded
>>
>>529469855
have you seen their missiles? basically firecrackers lol
>>
>>529470762
Not true. That's just ballistic missiles which become hypersonic as they come down. Hypersonic missiles (which only Russia and supposedly also China have) achieve flat trajectory Mach5+
>>
>>529469855
Their missiles are shit/ they lied or they ran out.
>>
>>529469855
It’s hiding 3000 km away
>>
>>529470014
>Do you know how the missiles know where to go?
By knowing where it isn't?
>>
>>529469855
its hiding like 900 miles away
>>
>>529470762
You do know that newer hypersonics can stay hypersonic? Gotta keep up with the tech.
>>
>>529470762
god faggot /k/ike posters are absolutely so insufferable its unreal
>>
>>529469855.

honestly, hypersonic missiles cannot take down an aircraft carrier what with the US defenses in US bases being present along the coast of the Persian Gulf.

Let's say that them IRGC became complacent in this matter since it's Ramadan and they think their fake god Allah, and their homosexual bisexual faggot prophet Mohammad can save them.
>>
>>529470971
Yes anon, the speed of sound decreases with altitude since it gets colder (expect for the stratosphere)

I don’t support this shit but America would probably escalate the violence significantly if one of these got sunk

I've heard, but after Ukraine, I'm not sure if they're telling the truth about their capabilities anymore.
>>
>>529471642
WTF do you mean? Not a single hypersonic was shot down
>>
>>529471561
yet you speak verbatim their talking points down to the last /k/ike /k/ope about "muh hypersonics"

the next dog shit nigger talking point will be how the US had them in the 60's judged them as dogshit and moved on from the idea all together because were firsties and only thirdies like Russia+China bother with thirdie stuff like muh hypersanics
>>

Some dingus on the beach on a tower with binoculars pics the heading then some on board AI trained by captcha to recognize America aircraft carriers aims at the picture with the aircraft carrier
>>
>>529469855
They don't have anti ship missiles beside silk worm missiles that China made in the 70s. Having no air force means the most you can do is fire off as many missiles as possible with set coordinate before the launchers get taken out. Most of Iran's strategy is for assymetrical warfare guerilla tactic style if the US invades, not much they can do if that doesn't happen.

Anti ship require constantly active guidance either through a large ship based, ground based, or air based radar.
>>

They blew their wad on Israel last time

I don't know what they're saying over on /k/. I just know about physics anon.

Iran's hypersonic missiles are supposed to be low altitude

Nothings perfect, but it's better than Russian/Chinese anti air that Iran has.
>>
>>529471446
that's not the part he has issue with
>>
>>529472156
No, based on what we saw in June, they're still ballistic missiles with another stage that fires off in the terminal stage that give it some degree of manueverability. Essentially sacrificing rangae nd payload to store extra fuel for that mobility.
>>
>>529472530
Damn, you're right. What a disappointment.
>>
>>529472374
Are you talking about the re-entry?
>>
>>529470762

Nuclear bombs aren't good as you think either

In fact, matter antimatter annihilation bombs, dark matter, dark energy blackhole, white hole, zero point energy bombs aren't good as you think
>>
>>529469855
Fooled you again anon. Everything Trump begins the schmear crowd running the democrat party goes through a litany of the horrible outcomes that will result, and repeats it ad nauseam until its clear none of the outcomes will happen. Then they shut up, and never admit how erroneous their predictions were. Now the schmear crowd probably has you fooled that the inflation rate being a few ticks of the Fed target of 2.0 is a calamity, when Biden assumed rate at the target, and put in place policies that got it to 9%, and made it difficult to get it back to the target. What a bunch of bold faced liars.
>>
>>529472708
Given Iran's resources and lack of proper cutting edge testing facility to design shit like hypersonic glide vehicles, this was still pretty impressive result for their use case. Their main problem by far is still a complete lack of an air force. Russia is too busy to sell them planes and China planned to sell missiles to Iran, but the deal haven't even closed yet.

You can see it in Iran's strikes that their good missiles are fast and semi manueverable, but most of its destructive power comes from the kinetic energy of the missile's speed. Compared to the destructive power of the bigger Russian bombs in the Ukraine war that level entire blocks at a time.

>>529470762
That's not how modern hypersonic works, nigger. That's ballistic rockets, retard.
>>
>>529473507

Aircraft carrier is out of missile range.

Iran is literally getting btfo, it's now all or nothing.

>>529469855
If you want to disable a carrier, don't shoot it directly but target the ocean beneath it. Boats don't work when they can't float
