Escalation? U.S. Navy Fires Warning Shots At Iranian Ship .....

What excuse are our good Muslim friends going to use with any god?

The US has the Best form of Socialism in the Entire World, where the rich can still get bailed out and keep their multi million dollar bonuses and the poor can still have steak and lobster on their EBT cards.

 

Besides its fleet of aging foreign designs, Iran also manufactures a few warplanes of its own. The Azarakhsh and Saeghe are modeled on the American F-5, while Iran is working on several stealth projects including the one that was met with a lot of derision and nonsense when Iran revealed a mock up of its stealthy Qaher 313. The latter an aircraft which is going through the final stages of development and should be ready to join the service in the near future.

Below are pictures of Iran's Saeghe 1 and Saeghe 2 fighters, which are in service with IRIAF.

Saeghe 1

 

Can even a Theocracy, purchase a "fighter jet to Heaven"?

 

Here are pictures of the mock up of the Qaher 313, which caused a stir and uproar among many 'western analysts' who claimed the plane couldn't fly as though they had discovered something no one knew already! Never mind it was a mock up and it wasn't supposed to fly, the latest news is that Qaher 313 is going through the final stages of development and will undergo testing in the near future.

HESA F-313 Qaher (Conqueror) 5th Generation Fighter Prototype ( 2018 )

LOL Good one.

 

This aircraft is not even close to being stealthy.

It has a double wing configuration and this can easily be radar detected.

You think this is a JOKE?

It's not!!

Pray those morons in Tehran are not stupid enough to send radar data to the Yemen Rebels.

AA

 

Look....those missiles being fired at our ships are being supplied by Iran to Hezbollah and from Hezbollah to the Houthi Rebels.

They just fired another Iranian supplied Missile on Sunday at the USS. Mason again.

How long do you think before we resolve this problem AT IT'S ROOT?

This is NOT a game!!!

Bet on it.

Doing that would absolutely be an act of war and you know it!!

They the Iranians will not fire back,
not unless the US fleet will send a Farsi version of the book of Salman Rushdie's "The Satanic Verses" to the Shah.
It's all about the Shah out there and somehow at this moment no progression of war whatsoever.

 

For Iran to fire upon the U.S. Navy is tantamount to suicide and they know it!!

AA

 

Yeah, I agree, they have to watch the daily news about Iraq, their nearest neighbor and war foe before.
A Sunni-ISIS mix is not so healthy with the dominant Shia Iran.

 

They really are putting their feet in it supplying these missiles to the Yemen Rebels.

If this keeps up we WILL end that supply line!!

AA

 

Yeah better to diffuse it,
That will be so explosive, the powder keg between KSA and Iran.

 

They can't keep firing missiles without us eventually coming down on them like a hammer.

And I am not just talking about the Rebels!!

AA

 

I can't pull up the image.

You need to improve your cyber warfare capabilities

 

LOL!!

And you need to provide a working link!!

I think we need fusion (an energy with a future).

 

Lockheed Martin has already had it's 4th successful test of it's Low Temp. Micro Fusion Reactor.

We will begin construction in the United States of over 30 Fusion Plants by 2026.

AA

 

Awesome.

 

What the problem has been in the past as far as Fusion is CONTAINMENT!!!

Lockheed Martin uses the currently smallest possible amount of Hydrogen and this amount is so small it is actually measured in the number of ATOMS....and they fuse the Hydrogen into Helium.

Now even just a few Hydrogen Atoms when being fused into Helium produces an ENORMOUS amount of energy and heat but as this is just a tiny amount it is possible to contain the reaction.

It is NOT Cold Fusion as it is a Thermonuclear Reaction but generated at the lowest possible level thus containment is possible.

Thus the LOW TEMP moniker is really about the the tiny amount of Hydrogen being fused into helium.

No other nation is even CLOSE to this level of Technology and it is the answer to our energy problems as well as the answer to Global Warming.

Of what I currently understand elements of both our Military and Agency Intelligence Groups have via a third party read the Iranian's the RIOT ACT!!

We have basically told them to reign in Iran's Qud's Force which is a division of the Iranian Republican Guard dedicated to spreading the tenets of the 1979 Iranian Islamic Revolution Worldwide.

The members of Qud's Force are fanatical and take orders directly from the Iranian theocracy as they are the one's not only supplying Hezbollah with these missiles that are being fired at U.S. Navy Ships as Hezbollah is supplying them to the Yemeni Rebels.

The thing is WE KNOW that members of Iran's Qud's Force are currently in Yemen working with the usually inept technologically members of Hezbollah to fire these obviously very poor and inferior missiles at our Ships.

Now these Iranian made anti-ship missiles are not much of a threat as even though the U.S. Military has at it's disposal a large number of SM-2 and SM-3 AA/ABM/ASAT's which could very easily blow these very crude Iranian Missiles out of the sky.....the fact is the Iranian Missiles are so poorly capable they are simply falling into the sea completely missing our Ships.

Of course we have not made it clear if the reason the Iranian made missiles are simply falling into the sea is because they are either just very poorly made.....or perhaps U.S. Electronic Warfare capability might be burning out their guidance before they can reach their intended targets.

But one thing is for certain.....if any more missiles are fired at our ships.....not only are we going to retaliate against the launch locations and radars.....we are also going to make some moves that will make it VERY HARD to be a member of Qud's Force in that area.

That really is most interesting, and I wish the experimentation every success. It sounds promising, and it should signal a halt to the production of even more unsightly and pointless wind turbines to clutter up our countryside and seascapes with. 'Wind power' has been the biggest scam ever perpetrated on the Brits. With the possible exception of fracking.

 

Yeah those wind turbines are ugly as sin!!! LOL!!

It is going to work the only question is how much Big Oil is going to try to spend to limit it..

In your fantasies. The real world, at the same all this was going on, the US was writing Iran to have Iran participate in ceasefire negotiations on Syria, with Iran putting conditions on its participation (including the addition of Iraq and Egypt, two countries which lean towards the pro-Assad side at this moment) which the US accepted. At the same time, Iran and the US are implicitly allied in this stage of the Mosul offensive against ISIS, with both sides on the side of the Iraqi government against the Turks and their insistence to be part of the campaign in Mosul. Finally, on the specific situation in Yemen, the US is the one moving more towards Iran's position, beginning to reassess its posture on the Saudi led campaign in that country, while it has also officially backed away from even saying categorically that US warships were targeted by any missiles (saying it needs to study the issue, without giving a timeline when its study will be concluded).

But all that aside, there is just a simple fact that should wake you up to reality, lest your dreams make even more confused than you are: if Iran was a country that could be swayed and cowed by the US reading it your "RIOT ACT", then Iran and the US wouldn't have any of the serious issues that they have had for 30+ years! The US has read a lot of such "RIOT ACTS" to death ears and such pretensions that the US can dictate what it wants are indeed the very source of the problem between Iran and the US. Otherwise, Iran and the US could more easily find common ground on many issues that they face.

 

This is Reuters report that was published today that is fed, on the US side, by those who are probably not happy with any attempt by the US to find some common ground with Iran.

Exclusive: Iran steps up weapons supply to Yemen's Houthis via Oman - officials

With regard to the missiles allegedly fired at the USS Mason:

As I have mentioned before in the other thread on this subject, if the Houthis had indeed fired any of Iran's anti-ship missiles in its arsenal, including the C/802 produced as the NOOR in Iran, the incidents wouldn't be anything like what is being alleged here. Those missiles, even if they were intercepted or even if they failed to hit their target, wouldn't be dropping aimlessly into the sea!
