"Do you happen to have any tail numbers for those Su-27 by any chance? Like you mention before "shoots hole's" in your comments pretty fast."
Well what holes do you speak of? That Iran is not stronger than any of its neighbors? That Iran has more money and some form of domestic reverse engineering capability than Syria?
"Maybe those 10,000 row boats of death oh better yet maybe they could tow (10) F-14s up next time for the next Iranian photo shoot, that would be most glorious."
See you know what its funny how every time I point out something that goes against peoples narrow believes I get accused of being a fan of them, does it ever figure into your mind that I could be playing devil's advocate or that if you look past your anti-Iranian views that you would see Iran is a regional superpower, that it dominates the gulf countries and that the only thing that challenges the Iranians in the Gulf is the huge American naval armada located their. What I mean by Iran being a regional superpower is that besides the huge American naval armada, Iran can militarily beat those small Gulf nations, am I wrong for believing that? NO. Even the U.S. admiral of the American naval flotilla stated that Iran is the dominant country in the Gulf region.
Lets remember I said Iran is a regional superpower not a Middle East Superpower don't get it confused, regional means the Gulf region. Lets look at the nations that are located in the Gulf; tiny Bahrain, tiny Kuwait, tiny UAE, tiny Oman, tiny Qatar, destroyed Iraq, and Saudis who can't fly or repair anything without foreign assistance. No look at these sorry bunch of nations, you will see what I mean about Iran is a regional superpower.
"Don't be so sure of yourself so I assume from your post your sort of an Iranian supporter as well, that's just so interesting.
Anyway like your Iranian Su-27s so magical are they not , the rest of the weapons Iran bought can mostly be research if one would bother doing so."
I am sure, Does Iranian airspace get invaded and their military sites get bombed like Syria? NO, so therefore can't compare Iranian air defense to Syria's, Iran credibility to defend their airspace is a lot better than Syria's and that is why no one bombs their sites with impunity, while Israel bombs Syrian sites with impunity. Does their airspace and territory get violated with impunity like nuclear armed Pakistan? NO. Therefore, since Syria and Pakistan get attacked and not Iran, it should tell you that Iran has some credible defenses.
"Basically on the same level it would be a hard fine trying to locate Iran's purchases of modern SAMs.
Sorry for going off topic I see since post 13# that F-35 aren't the topic anymore. Mod's I was wondering could these last post's be moved into Iranian weapons thread or a S-400 thread? I'm hoping to add to the 'The Israel gets F-35s thread" as time goes buy if would be a good source of information having it one place."
I should stay out of this discussion but the reason why I joined was another member tried to compare Syria and Iran air defenses, and I wanted to shed some light that Iran and Syria are not the same. Go and misconstrued and distract from my points, the only reason other members speak of the S-400 and S-300 is that these are the only credible air defense systems that can handle and F-35. So if people are going to talk about an aircraft its only sensible that they will also discuss ways it can be countered and different scenarios such as the Iran scenario, because those planes will most likely be used against Iran, so you may believe that members have digressed from topic but its not so.
