Iran general: Our radar can spot US stealth planes

Iran has an integrated radar system that can detect various types of US warplanes including stealth aircraft 85km away and destroy them from a distance of 45km, said Gen. Alireza Sabahi Fard, commander of the Khatam ol-Anbiya Air Defense Base, to the Fars news agency on Tuesday. Last month, Defense Minister Amir Hatami unveiled the new “Khordad 15” surface-to-air missile system, which he claimed could track airborne targets 150 km away and engage them from a distance of 120 km.

    And as proof, all of our missile systems and storage sites have been bombed into oblivion by Israel and we haven’t shot down the first jet.

    Die sind genau wie die Russen, sind zu Doof ein Auto zu bauen. Glauben aber die besten Raketen und Flugzeuge bauen zu können.

      Spruch eines iranisch Freund:
      Die iranische Autos sind gefährlicher als die amerikanische Bomben.

    These new Iranian radars are based on the Braille effect.
    Skilled operators attached to telescopic towers mounted on trucks feel the air all around with broomsticks and sound an alarm when hitting into something. But, are less effective when deployed in forests.

    Yes, it works very well in Syria and how many Israeli planes have you shot down? What about those Israeli Stealth Drones flying daily over Iran, did you get those too?

    “And don’t think for a moment that we didn’t know there were F35s circling Tehran. We could have taken them down any time we wanted.”

    When Iranian radar detects US stealth planes, the radar installations explode.

    Technically the Iranian general may be correct. They may be able to detect our stealth aircraft under certain conditions.

    Whether their ability to detect is good enough to provide for an effective defense against attacks utilizing our anticipated flight profiles and weaponry? It’s apparently already been shown that they don’t have that ability.

    Gen. Alireza Sabahi Fard has received a PHD from a renowned Iran Liars College. His PHD means he can pile sh*t higher and deeper than the next 99.9 people. Phd in Farsi mean Piled Higher and Deeper!

    There may actually be some truth to this. That speck of dust which won’t come off with windex may be a formation of stealth aircraft. Please be advised.
