Iran Super Thread- Merged

[HavokFour]

2.5 kg
20 of them
8 km radius
8x8 = 64
3,14 *64 = 200 km2
200 / 20 = 1 grenade per 10 km2

An 81mm round weighs about 4 kg with a blast radius of 35 m
A 60 mm round weighs about 1.2 to 2 kg with a blast radius of 25 m

Call it one mortar round in 10 grid squares?

Ideal for terrorizing civilians.

Russia does something similar with long range drones carrying tear gas and/or accelerant.

Judging from the Isrsaelis driving around with all the downtown lights on it doesn't seem to be having the intended effect.

Shaheds should not be getting through… But Shaheds are getting through. Naval Support Activity Bahrain has taken at least one solid hit, and likely more.

Various presumable ‘misses’ have struck civilian areas including the Fairmonthotel at Dubai palms, and something near the Burj Khalifa tower. Kuwait International Airport terminal took a hit.

Way too much info coming in to have a great sense of what all is happening, but Iran is definitely shooting lots back.

Still no clarity on the status of Ayatollah Khamenei. He has not yet made his promised TV address, but were I him I wouldn’t be sticking my head up anywhere either.

I was with CMF at 5th Fleet in 21. That looks like it was close to the ball diamond that was beside our building.

Be fearful when others are greedy - Be greedy when others are fearful.

What I've been seeing on the "MIRV not MIRV" object accompanying the main warhead are that they are basically penetration aids - designed to mask the real warhead amidst the cloud of others.

Shooting down the actual warhead could now take a complete battery worth of SAMs, and most would be wasted against the small mortar bomb sized warheads.
