⚡The U.S. military’s most expensive drone, the $230 million Triton, has reportedly vanished near Iran.

Claims point to Iranian electronic warfare as the cause of the crash.

If confirmed, it would mark a significant escalation in the shadow conflict.

This is the second time Iran has downed a U.S. drone using electronic warfare. The United States was unable to do the same to an Iranian drone two weeks ago, instead it deployed its overpriced F-35 fighter jet to fire an expensive missile to shoot the drone down.
correct

Did you just say effective capabilities ? The Ukrainians have been on the defense for the most part of the conflicts.
You just compared a country on Western economic life support with a war-machine like Russia, I'm not even pro-Russian.
I don't know if you have seen the news lately, As of February 2026, Ukraine is facing its most severe heating crisis in four years.
The Ukrainians are nowhere near the Russian capabilities.
In fewer terse, this is still a SMO (not a full scale war)for the Russians but for the Ukraine it's existential, they are bound to score some hits.
The conflict is four years now ? The Russians can definitely keep this up for another four years, can you say the same for the Ukrainians ?
Your refusal to admit your error on what near-peer power and peer power is shows you're deliberately being ignorant, which, I'm sorry to say, is the worst form of zombification.

Did you even take time to read what I wrote?

From day one till date, who is behind the Ukrainian war machine? NATO---in all capacity---intelligence, high tech, specialists (including western regular troops) armaments, finance, everything. And who is NATO to Russia? A peer power, which makes Ukraine a near-peer power deployed against Russia. You don't have to be pro East or west to admit simple facts.

Don't quote me again. I don't have time to waste on someone that deliberately wants to be ignorant.

basilico:
I should laugh or cry. If US gets into a war with Iran , no ballistic missile will be fired from Iran
USAF is nothing like IDF. IDF could not sustain a no flight zone, lack enough refuelling tankers and loitering bombers. IDF was able to operate for 12 days without any planes getting shot down.
America would take out every radar site within hours. Then they would
have B-52s and B2-Bs loitering over Iran space waiting for a target to be identified. USAF is not like IDF to be threatened with ballistic missiles. Meanwhile every fighter jet would be picking out Khamanei militay. If he fires at a USS Carrier then an open war of invasion would be declared. In an invasion Iranians would support America to get rid of Khamanei.When your own citizens are sabotaging your defences your goose is cooked.
Trump is unlike Obama who approved every drone bombing of a terrorist. Trump would tell the military generals go ahead and get me a victory.
Iran is a barking dog with enough ballistic missiles hidden underground.
USAF would carpet bomb every square centimeter from where's the missiles are being launched.
Venezuela didn't realize they were being attacked until too late
The US military isn't anywhere course to the rag tag Russians .
Muslim armies are medieval , they torture prisoners of war , they bomb indiscriminately targeting civilians, they lie to their own people about how victorious they've been while in underground bunkers They go to UN to demand their enemies follow war protocols, while they do the opposite.

The only Muslim country that's has a modern army is Turkey. The rest will quickly degenerate into war tactics used in medieval warfare
The sandals wearing Talibans and old Vietnam would love to watch the Hollywood movie you were watching while typing this crap.

the war should start this weekend because the negotiation has done its job

the ford carrier group is now in israel and the lincoln carrier has completed replenishment
all assets are in theater--tankers, fighters, aew, sops, c&c
they've also drawn down their presence in the most vulnerable stations (there are no tankers in qatar; the 5th fleet in bahrain has been mostly evacuated leaving a skeletal crew; iraq, israel, lebanon have been largely evacuated)

the decision has been made since last month
the only question is if there will be a last minute cancelation for the fourth time

that's the way to look at it

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by LordAdam16: 3:23pm On Feb 27
let me put it simply

usrael has decided to go to war with iran
in recent weeks, there have been specific windows for the opening attack
they did not use the previous three windows

this weekend is another window
i hope they use it, i'm sick of the vacillating

but there could potentially be another last-minute cancelation




needless to say, if there are no strikes by tuesday next week, there will be very pissed genocidal oafs
i believe that is when their desperation will kick in
this weekend is actually auspicious
purim, the jewish holiday that celebrates the pre-emptive murder of thousands of iranians, is march 2-3

⚡Multiple U.S. Air Force refueling tankers — KC-135s and KC-46s — are now deployed at Ben Gurion Airport (Tel Aviv).

update

cuba announces arrest of an individual who they claim confessed he had been sent in advance to prepare for and receive the intercepted infiltrators
local florida state authorities in the us announced that the boat was stolen

and one of the fatalities is a us dual citizen




looking like a plausible deniability operation

if they were successfully inserted, great
if they were caught, the us gov will deny any connection to them

We are operating in full coordination with our partners, in order to strengthen the defense.
