Especially with China. From what I’ve seen, they have advanced weaponry that rivals the USA/Israel along with a security agreement with Iran. Could be the beginnings of a new proxy war in the middle east. IRGC aligned proxy groups will also ramp up attacks in the region. No bueno all the way around.


I was having trouble understanding how Iran pulled this off, until I read that Russia sold them an advanced manpad called a “9K333 Verba” last December. Uses 3 different sensors to distinguish a target from countermeasures and is effective up to 15,000 feet. Not ideal to be flying low in a country with a bunch of those wandering around.
