Put in this light, I get it. I just think there should be acknowledgement of seriousness of the situation and the discussion should be balanced with that truth. I think the purpose of the attack was not to inflict any real damage or cause major destruction or loss of life. I think it was 100% political in order to save face and send a message. I believe if they really wanted to cause serious harm and risk escalation, Iran has means at its disposal to accomplish that, or at least, increase the chances of it.

Modelling and Miniatures / Re: He-162 A-2 Salamander
Last post by JudgeDredd - April 16, 2024, 01:30:14 PMUnfortunately, I can't find the images. I know I sold it on eBay, but they don't have my previous listings on there so I can't find the images.
I did find this image - but it's only really of the top of the model. I was taking a photo of my collection before I went on a selling binge.
I did also find my Jagdpanther, Chieftain and Leopard 1 - thought I'd post them before I lost the images forever.
This was my aircraft colelction.

Last post by Skoop - April 16, 2024, 01:05:48 PMI've heard many pro Russians cite that Clark incident in Serbia. They tout that as nato aggression and the sentiment is probably what lead to Putin's rise.
I don't buy all the nato expansion bad and caused Ukraine war that's being put out there. Something has to keep the Russians in check from gobbling up the Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania. Eastern Europe is thriving living free from Russian rule, no way that would happen with out nato.
We wouldn't need to move nato East if Russia would let Eastern Europe live in peace.
I think really, the failure is letting the Russians become enemies 22 years ago. Nato moving East could have been a friendly alliance with Russia moving closer, some how diplomacy dropped the ball 20+ years ago.

I think even the ayatollahs are thinking we are a bunch of posers. I bet they realize that all the years of their bragging and tough talk came back to bite them. Still don't underestimate these losers.

Last post by W8taminute - April 16, 2024, 12:52:08 PMI agree, what is about to happen is, for lack of a better term, a "Red Sea" moment for Israel. A serious moment for the world as well.
Between Iran bragging that if Israel strikes they (Iran) will use a weapon they have never used before and chatter about Israel's "Sampson" option means this is a big moment.
What happened on Saturday night was absolutely stunning. A defense system that is guaranteed (by the men who operate it) a 90% success rate at the very best just stopped pretty much 99.9% of Iran's incoming projectiles. It should not be taken for granted.
