Belesarius Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 The thought of Saudi Arabia having nukes fills me with much more dread than the idea that Iran might. Yep. As fractured as the House of Saud is, I'm legit worried about them being used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 This also effectively guarantees that Iran will push for a nuke of its own, which guarantees a war. Hold onto your asses kiddies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priory_of_Sion Posted May 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 This is purported to be a destroyed pylon(other pictures show different parts) of a Saudi F-15 shot down over Yemen. The Saudis openly deny that claim. That begs the question of what this is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tied Posted June 10, 2015 Report Share Posted June 10, 2015 I wonder if it was the metis-m, the thing can probably punch through a Challenger 2 but even the base metis can make sort work of a LAV from the side, i believe we actually gave some to the East Germans if i am not mistaken great photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Kornet-E in hands of "Ansar Allakh" used against Saudi forces at Yemen-SA border. Looks like Bradly was hit.

Priory_of_Sion Posted June 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 AQAP's leader was killed last friday in a drone strike. I guess that's good news, but with decapitation of terrorist groups the next guy in line is usually more than willing to pick up the slack and do more terrorist activity. ISIS has also claimed 4 car bomb attacks in Sanaa(2 against Shia mosques which is more of an ISIS trademark than an AQ one) which isn't good news at all. A possible merger between AQAP and ISIS seems more plausible as we see more ISIS presence in Yemen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoooSeR Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 According to French "Intelligence Online", missiles strike on 6th of June this year was done with help of Iranian Intelligence and Security Service ("Wewak"), "Khamis Mushait" base was target of missile attack. On that day, about 12 R-17 missiles were launched. According to newsletter sources Patriot SAM batteries managed to intercept only three missiles. During this operation Chief of Staff of the Air Force of Saudi Arabia Mohammad al-Shaalan was killed. In mid-May a Youtube video was posted in which launcher vehicle 9P117 of the 9K72 missile system was shown on a trailer, moving in the direction of the border with Saudi Arabia.

Priory_of_Sion Posted July 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Without opening up a new thread, I'd like to post this table on airstrikes to show the extent of US strikes in Syria & Iraq. I'd rename this thread to MidEast Shitstorm Extravaganza, but it doesn't seem like I can change it. Tied 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priory_of_Sion Posted July 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 The RSAAF has seem to have done a terrible job at destroying Houthi armor if these pics are recent. Not too surprising. You do have to wonder when they will run out of fuel as fuel and food become increasingly scarce in Yemen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxn Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 The Saudi armed forces, like most palace guards, are exponentially better at killing the local peasants and helpless bystanders than they are at fighting armed folk. Expect lots of reprisals dressed up as failed precision strikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
