i can't believe i have to be stuck on this rock with these delusional psychopaths. s*** like this is why i will never have kids

THAAD works in clusters of up to 44 missiles per launch

that’s why biggest donors are evangelical christians

it's like a horror movie

You must have kids precisely for the reason of making sure these Retarts do not inherit the earth

my fear is that climate change or nuclear catastrophe will take me out with my kid

u know what i never thought of it like that

but u are not wrong

You mean 44 THAADs or like one THAAD is made up of 44 little missiles?

Cuz if it’s the first

One THAAD system has like 44 missiles

My biggest fear is failing to prevent that

Strait of Hormuz closing is such a crazy chess move

The gulf states rely on exporting oil to import food. They’re desert countries food is scarce.

Iran’s geographical advantage in this is absurd

Mountain fortress for hiding military and missiles vs flat desert with no water

Wait till Iran hits the desalination plants

Iran has a water bankruptcy rn

A THAAD battery, or cluster, consists of 6 truck-mounted launchers, 48 interceptors (8 per launcher), an AN/TPY-2 radar, and fire control/communication components, operated by about 90–95 soldiers

48 interceptors per seven targets

$350,000 (7 drones) from Iran can match the logistical bandwidth of however much ($12.7M per interceptor, $1.1-$1.7bn per battery) the US is throwing into a battery

thats probably a last ditch effort if iran is about to fall

Nah

I really don’t understand the strategy here

Insanely hard

China is Asia's third biggest fuel exporter.

These are always grifts
