my neighbor told me Iran keeps bombing his missile defense systems so I asked how many missile defense systems he has and he said he just goes to south korea and gets a new missile defense system afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding missile defense systems to Iran and then his daughter started crying
i wonder if this is a sign that they're running out.
I can't see any other reason they'd be shipping them across the ocean
My guess is that they are moving replacement AN/TPY-2 radar and AN/FPS-132 as there are claims of 4 of the radars have been taken out across the middle east.
Reading into what this means strategically as well as for both the THAAD operability and Patriot systems probably guarding the high altitude ballistic defense is something I'm curious about, but am not going to speculate about at the moment.
I will say that was probably a good choice on the part of whatever Iranian's which targeted them. The US needs to pull it's head out of it's ass on this.
I don't see any exit ramp for the US here at this point. The war ends when Iran decides it ends. And from American perspective, it would be a colossal humiliation if they’re forced to run home with their tail between their legs. It would definitively show the whole world that the US is no longer a superpower that cannot be challenged. All their vassals are already starting to realize that they’re expendable, and that the empire can’t protect them. So, a withdrawal would mean a complete collapse of American geopolitical position.
