Twitter randos are tracking about 60 combat coded aircraft headed to the middle east. AWACs, U2, and loads of tankers headed with them.

  • I propose a toast:  To the incompetence of Iranian aviation.  Hear, hear! And  on a positive note, congrats to President Raisi: he quit smoking yesterday!

    I don’t think killing Iranians is an appropriate level of response for them shooting down a robot.  One of the advantages of RPAs is we can lose a few.  Had they killed aircrew, let’s start collecting

Lots of guys asking questions about short notice non-vol orders on the Delta Mil FB page over the last week or so.

Glad to hear we have a strong OPSEC program.

Iran lost an F-4 today during workup to attack Israel and U.S. Forces. Reports indicate the pilot who was the commander of the training squadron was killed, his WSO was wounded but survived.

In other news, Iran rejected the "deal" today...its going to get sporty. God speed to all our folks downrange.

We lost a load of F-4's also. It was not a mx friendly airplane.

Easiest way to put it: F-Kill vs. K-Kill. This isn’t the gotcha you think it is.

It’s begun. US/Israeli strikes on Iranian leadership buildings confirmed

“Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.”

Oh God, “The kid” is going to need a lot of therapy if that’s true.

Both of the handles that are reputable reported it but nothing to confirm from what i can see

Important safety tip for tyrants, dictators, and theocratic thugs, next time Trump says you have 10-15 days to come to an agreement before something bad happens, round that down to 7 days.

Started college in 1979 working on my engineering degree. The Iranians had stormed the embassy earlier that year and had taken hostages. There were also Iranians attending the same college with me and I had 3 or 4 of them in a Physics class and lab. They wore the standard militant uniform fatigue jacket and apparently were adverse to any form of personal hygiene involving bathing so they absolutely wreaked. Times were tense and during a conversation with one of them, he said "How can you allow the CIA to read your mail?" I replied, "They don't read my mail but I'm sure they are reading yours." The startled look on his face was rather amusing.

If true, good news indeed. I was a little surprised this kickoff during the day. I'm guessing Khamenei was a little surprised too...and a little less cautious.

I haven't written her off. Like I said, I hope she's a fast learner with an open mind. On a somewhat related note to help characterize how I approach the world, I also think the regime in Iran must be toppled. October 7th has necessitated it, and it's only a matter of time before it becomes a reality. I'm not a war-monger, though. I'm just taking an honest look at who's who in the world, and "countries" that engage others in that manner have to be transformed. That usually takes force.

Welp, here we are.

Seems to me that we're learning better ways to wield our power.

My wife and Khamenei have something in common, today was their last day working for their respective governments. Wife retires from the USAF tomorrow, Khamenei retired from life.
