  1. Another commercial for “Rumormill”, fast acting sensationalism.

    1. New York Times said 2 missiles were fired at Diego Garcia. Is that a good enough source for you?

  2. The IRBM arsenal Iran built was kept to a certain range for political reasons. There is no technical reason why they could not increase the range any time they like. They have something of a space launch platform that could be used as an ICBM in a pinch too.
    North Korea has a variety of longer range missiles and if they wanted to provide a few to help Iran. they could be shipped across Russia and delivered with only limited chance to interdict them by air.

  3. To me, it looks like Iran studied Germany 1944/1945 and what could have been via technology and a real offensive strategy and has implemented layered resistance and offensive capabilities based on a sustained bombing campaign from the West. Herr Adolf and Goering are slow clapping from the Great Beyond.

    1. Yes, the path forward for air warfare was clear in 1944. The long range drones are all modern V-1 flying bombs and the missiles are modern V-2. The US and Israel are about the only militaries left that insist on flying everything with manned crews into enemy airspace. Russia does not even fly into Ukrainian airspace anymore in that long war. They do what the US and Isreal have mostly been doing which is to fly standoff missiles right up to the edge of enemy airspace. This is going to be the last hurrah for the bomber jacket and Rayban wearing American flyboy icon.

        It was rumored the Germans could have launched their V-2 platforms with a high enough apogee to hit NYC, but their guidance systems were not perfected in time. In any event, it would be very good Karma to watch the City of London disappear in a big blue flash, along with Brussels and other demonic entities.

        1. I think Russia has dibs on those 2 places, unless they want to get a little more proxy payback and provide some Oreshnik to Iran.
