Yes but we don’t have a bunch of them right now. Apaches and A-10s can easily shoot down these slow drones with guns.

That would be a perfect opportunity for an A10 to get in on the action. Line up and strafe anyone who mourns that evil bastard.

President Trump told Axios in an interview Thursday that he needs to be personally involved in selecting Iran's next leader — just as he was in Venezuela.

Appoint an underling and keep 99.9% of the government intact while ignoring the duly elected winner of a recent election that even we said was the legitimate will of the people?

I don't think that is going to work out as well in Iran as it has, thus far, in Venezuela.

Based just off very minimal understanding of any sort of marine traffic, can someone explain if the Strait is actually closed? This screenshot is at 1115 CST. Sure seems to be a lot of ships still cruising along.

For all we have given to the Uke I cannot imagine them not giving us a few to use and a few to bring home and manufacture.

Absolutely. I’m all about it. I’m more talking about a stop gap measure. Iran’s ballistic missile supply is rapidly running out and their cheap drones are the biggest threat right now. The Ukrainians have been using helicopters to shoot down drones. I saw a video of I think the Greek navy shooting some down with a helicopter near Crete. Until we get a true anti-drone defense system set up we can use assets we already have as a stop gap.

Here's an excerpt from Military.com. It was published this morning.

quote:

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — The United States and its allies in the Middle East are seeking Ukraine’s expertise in countering Iran’s Shahed drones, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Various countries, including the United States, have approached Ukraine for help in defending against the Iranian drones, Zelenskyy said late Wednesday. He said he has spoken in recent days with the leaders of the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan and Kuwait about possible cooperation.

Russia has fired tens of thousands of Shaheds at Ukraine since it invaded its neighbor just over four years ago, launching a swarm of more than 800 drones and decoys in its biggest nighttime barrage. Iran has responded to joint U.S.-Israeli strikes by launching the same type of drones at countries in the Middle East.

Ukrainian assistance in countering Iranian drones will be provided only if it does not weaken Ukraine’s own defenses, and if it adds leverage to Kyiv’s diplomatic efforts to stop the Russian invasion, according to the Ukrainian leader.

“We help to defend from war those who help us, Ukraine, bring a just end to the war” with Russia, Zelenskyy said.

Ukraine has pioneered the development of cut-price drone killers that cost as little as $1,000, rewriting the air defense rule book and making other countries take notice.

European countries got a wake-up call last September on the changed nature of air defense when Poland scrambled multimillion-dollar military assets, including F-35 and F-16 fighter jets and Black Hawk helicopters, in response to airspace violations by cheap drones.

Ukrainian manufacturers have developed low-cost interceptor drones specifically designed to hunt and destroy Shaheds, and its rapidly expanding drone industry is producing excess capacity.

Zelenskyy announced earlier this year that Ukraine would begin exporting the battle-tested systems.

Only military infrastructure is being destroyed; we haven't had any power outages, no gas, no water, not even telephone; and the internet is cut off by them themselves!
The people of #Tehran are overflowing with joy and are planning for the day after the regime's fall. No fear or worry is seen on the faces of the people under bombs and missiles, and we are happier than ever.

Our only request is that you stand more firmly than ever behind the Shahanshah, increase virtual activities, fill the streets of major cities outside the country with crowds; shout the name #Pahlavi louder and prepare to come to Iran

This is our final battle against Ahriman
Long live Iran

In the small neighborhoods of Gilan and Rasht, people have openly threatened to kill anyone who puts up black cloth or condolence banners, and now all of them, out of sheer terror for their asses, have taken down the banners...

This is the most meaningful outcome that I have seen reported so far, assuming that it is true.

You're dying in a fight you already lost.

Your commanders sold you out.

They're hiding in luxury, pocketing the cash they stole, while you and your families get nothing but graves."
