I stand corrected. But there weapon costs in general are mpractical against modern adversaries. S-400 interceptors cost between $300,000-1,000,000 per round but with thaad, we're talking about $12-15 million dollars per shot. The Arrow costs $3 million. I don't care if they are is superior to the S-400, it is impractical and this war has prove that
It is the MIC way of milking the US government and it's citizens dry.

Former president Eisenhower did warned them about this, but today, we are here.

The people behind the MIC are those that would drive the US into total destruction someday.

It's a fact.

It's funny how anyone wants to make Israels air defence system the best in the world after all what we have seen 😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣



USA , France , Germany and Jordan where helping shoot down Iranian missiles and still the David Sink and iron doom could not do jack 🤣😂😂🤣🤣.

Make Una dey deceive unaself there. The best air defence system in the world is the Russian s400 , you can check any site and confirm for yourself.

Iron basket and David Sink 🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣omo Iran really show Una pepper o🤣😂😂😂 the way the thing they take pain Una. Even trump don chop him L in peace, netanyahu don chop him L in peace but na the zombots in here they cry on their behalf 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Make Una no worry, I no say hand dey always hitch the baby k.i.l.l.e.r.s to pai something, they will still look for Iran's trouble again when they have been fully stocked by their big brother's and it will still end in tears
They want to fool themselves not us, into believing that Israeli air defense systems did all the work.

They think we've forgotten that Israel lifted over 200 jets to shoot down Iranian missiles, UK, US, France, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Qatar each lifted dozens of fighter jets to protect Israel.

How about ships? More than 3 Aircraft carriers with dozens of ships were positioned near Iran to shoot down missiles.

How many missiles did Iran fire in total? Not even more than 1000.

So assuming those jets and ships each shot down 2 missiles, how many will now be left for Israel's ground based air defense systems to shoot down?


They think they're talking to dummies such as themselves.

Ukraine fires salvos of missiles and drones, in their hundreds at Russia every freaking day but we can count the number of times they struck their targets on one hand. Those of us who have been following this war judiciously can attest to the fact that no single day goes by without Ukraine launching something into Russia.

Ask them what happened to the recently supplied Storm Shadow missiles and ATACMS that UK & US donated to Ukraine? I guess Ukraine gave them to a nearby orphanage home 🤡 🤡 Over a thousand missiles in total.

What about HIMARS? When was the last time you even heard of them??

Do you know how good you have to be to make even your enemies admit you're better than them? Let them argue with western military experts about which AD is better. Bird brains.

Better choice we saw their woeful performance in Tel viv
Mic drop.

We had a real-word demonstration of the performance of near every state-of-the-art Western Air Defense system.
The result: 10,000+ destroyed buildings.




THAAD was created for a specific purpose. To intercept ballistic missiles.
The S-400 was developed as an upgrade to the S-300.
It is the swiss army knife of air dense systems.

No Western AD solution was developed to intercept hypersonics.
They're not rated for that.
The THAAD, Patriot, David Sling, Arrow, et al are obsolete against hypersonics.

Against regular, pre-2020 Axis missiles, there is no evidence that their interception rates beat the S-400.
Yes, including special purpose built solutions like THAAD and Arrow 3.
If they did, Israel would not have surrendered in under 12 days.

80-90% success rate is considered a woeful performance to you?
The 80% success rate was stat padded with drone interceptions.

Otherwise tell us how 60 missiles damaged 30,000 buildings.

The only thing in Israel that had a 90% success rate at interceptions during the war were buildings.

CMSGT. DENNIS FRITZ: CEASEFIRE ONLY HAPPENED BECAUSE THE US🇺🇸 & ISRAEL NOW KNOW IRAN'S🇮🇷 POWER

'Those ballistic missiles, as we know now, are accurate and very powerful. And this so-called 12-day war that we came to decide that hey, it’s time for peace—it wasn’t because of the fact it was the strength of Israel or us. It was the strength of the Iranians and those ballistic missiles; they were destroying a lot of infrastructure in Israel.

They didn’t expect even within Israel that Iran was going to come back so forceful and powerful. Now in regards to the US and President Trump saying 'hey, we want peace now.' The attack that Iran did in Qatar was a warning shot for us...

The reason that all of a sudden peace came about was because of the fact we know now how powerful Iran is.'

200 fighter jets to shoot down ballistic missiles?? How can a fighter jet shoot down ballistic missiles this man😂😂😂😂.

Russia launched a combined total of 537 aerial munitions against Ukraine, consisting of 477 drones, decoys and 60 missiles, according to Ukraine's air force
500+ missiles and drones fired at Ukraine, and only two people were killed?
This speaks to the precision of Russia's highly advanced munitions.
It suggests that they are going to great lengths to avoid collateral damage, ie, unnecessary civilian deaths!


If it is ur brother from the other side, we would have at least 200K- 500K civilians deaths by now
True oh.

They still killed over 60 Palestinians yesterday.

Precisely.

Iran drew down its stock of aged missiles.
They served a strategic purpose. To deplete interceptors and gain valuable insight into how Western ADs functioned.

After 3 years, Ukraine is almost exclusively firing precision missiles at Russia.
We've seen the S-400 perform admirably.

I don't understand these western bots.
We saw the failure of Western ADs in Ukraine.
We saw a repeat with a denser network of Western ADs in Israel.

But, but, THAAD is better than S-400.
How? Where is the evidence?

⚡Iran officially banned Elon Musk’s Starlink, criminalizing its use with penalties including fines, flogging, and up to 2 years in prison.

Despite the law, 20,000–40,000 terminals remain active via black markets, offering uncensored internet.
Every country should follow suit. musks starlinks is a tool being used to undermine the sovereignty of countries that opposes the west. Why Russia hasn't knocked those trashy constellation out of orbit is still a mystery.

While reading about the J-10c jets a few days back, I saw several Indian articles and videos describing the superiority of the Rafael jets over the J-10c. Few months later, Pakistan obliterated the Rafael and other jets with the same aircraft. There is nothing you can do about propaganda

The AK47 was never intended to be a sniper by its manufacturer. Its accuracy range proves that. But the S-400 was made with ballistics interception + other tasks in mind . You are comparing apples and oranges.

What the AI says remains an opinion. There is no proof that the thaad or arrow does a better job at intercepting ballistic missiles than the S400, but we know that it has a longer range, meaning it could stand a better chance of dealing with superfast missiles.
That sums it all. I have never heard of a professional sniper attaching a scope to an AK and using it as his primary weapon of choice, but you can buy the S400 with the sole aim of stopping ballistic missiles.

Like brooo. One thing I will give to the zio entity is that they know how to ensure they destroy their perceived enemy when they sense any form of weakness. This time around they probably begged Trump for this ceasefire because they were really bleeding and they knew if Iran keep up with the missle strikes and their ADS missle stockpile continue to deplete at an exponential rate, the zionist entity is headed for eradication.

According to the Anti Jewish propaganda network Al Jazeera, the Total injured/hospitalised during the attacks were 3,238 persons, while a Total people killed was 28. How can a whooping 31,000 homes be impacted by ballistic missiles and just 28 persons died and 3,238 persons injured😂😂😂😂😂

According to the times of Israel 2,305 homes in 240 buildings were damaged by Iran’s attacks, leaving over 13,000 Israelis displaced, yet our seigneur Adamu says it over 31,000.

How in the world are you going to take down Starlink? You can't shoot it down, you'll have a Kessler syndrome on your hands. And even capture is impossible with that many satellites. Insane delta v budgets will be needed.

This is the real reason Starlink is a massive threat. And now the Chinese are making their own. Stuff of nightmares.
