NSI - Nationalist Security and Intelligence

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇮🇷On the Iran-Israel War: /CIG/ #commentary Main takeaway is that the Iranian response was timely, instead of the 24-48 hour wait last time. Pretty decent day one for Iran. Expected performance by the US et al. Global shipping might be the main casualty here. Unknown what will happen to oil & gas. The main damage caused by Iran et al in recent years was by shutting down the Suez. The US also appears to be shifting towards lower-cost kamikaze drones, taking a page out of Iran's book. Iran focused on radars and anything which aids interceptions. This is better than hitting symbolic buildings like last time. They're taking taking big hits and their leadership may or may not be dead, but they prepared for decentralized military coordination. So it's like a unit by unit basis of commanders making self authorized decisions. Main US military impact is that this will functionally use up the remainder of munitions that would have been used on China. Also the US is not invading Iran shock & awe style. It took all the king's horses and airlift to move a couple AA batteries. US sealift is pretty much extinct these days as well. This might be the final big war for all the fancy and expensive toys wielded by the US. Iran successfully implemented their eyes & fist strategy of blinding/evading missiles without spamming anything. @CIG_telegram
