Originally posted by Donald Trump There's no actual reason jet engines need to be expensive, in fact they could possibly be made cheaper than normal engines. They're basically just a series of fans. Same thing mechanically as a turbocharger in a car. Maybe the Chinese have started knocking out cheap ones.
yeah but the reason they don't use them isn't just for the price point, but because the 2-stroke moped engines have a much lower heat signature. historically Russian/Soviet AA gear relies more on thermal seeking whereas NATO gear relies more on radar -

Originally posted by Number13 It's odd that they're only now trying to develop defenses against drones like that, geran has been around a long time as one of the cheaper ones.
Not exactly cutting edge shit either
this is a specific counter to LANCET drones; they've been revised a few times since the beginning of the war (different explosive payloads, different charges, different flight configurations) and are now extremely lethal to armor, probably outranking artillery for tank/artillery kills now.
also I've seen rumours that there are now GERAN variants that use jet engines for some reason -

2024-04-03 at 8:27 AM UTC in Are you looking forward to the big war with Iran?I mean previously I thought their method would be to engineer a situation where they could say that Iran attacked them unprovoked, but at this point they seem desperate enough to attack first, get hit, then go crying to Uncle Shlomo that Iran is bullying them for no reason.

Originally posted by Donald Trump Mike Enoch has been saying this for a while.
Putting myself in the position of the Israels I can absolute see myself wanting to trigger WW3 and have the goyim destroy each other and the world so I can rule over the ashes.
yeah, just in general they've been trying for a long time. the reason they keep threatening to go north into Lebanon or push Rafah but never actually do seems to be that they know they won't succeed alone, but Iran and pals have been very careful with escalation control to try to make sure the US doesn't have justification to enter directly.
to be honest at this point I don't think the US has the stomach for it short of major loss of US lives, like Pearl Harbour or 9/11. -

Originally posted by ner vegas sure, but the point there is that the Iranian and Canadian embassies are so close to each other that attacking one could've easily damaged the other, the whole idea is insanely reckless.
I don't think there's any other takeaway than israel (or more specifically Bibi) is extremely desperate and again, insanely reckless. they need to escalate the war and draw in 'allies' because of how poorly it's going for them; there's no other explanation for this level of escalation combined with the possibility for collateral damage and unpredictable results aside from them feeling like they have little to lose
the more that I think about this, the more it seems that israel is intentionally trying to draw Iran into open warfare explicitly because they believe it'll force the US to enter the war on their side. they could not win a conventional war with Iran and even with their nuclear weapons the outcome would be questionable and devastating for both sides, regardless of who 'wins'.
if we understand this to be the goal and assume Iran understands the same, their next step will likely be either massive attacks on israeli assets outside of israel or giving more modern weapons (such as hypersonics) to allies and Shia militias, perhaps Yemen gets the latest ASBMs since they're already at war anyway. maybe Iran closes the Persian Gulf to states supporting israel in co-operation with Yemen. Maybe Hezbullah starts using long-range 'stealth' cruise missiles. -
