"Ukraine does not have the means to protect against Iranian ballistic missiles, said Yuriy Ignat, spokesman for the Air Force Command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces"
"Unfortunately, we have information that Russia will strengthen its capabilities with the help of Iranian ballistic missiles. Our specialists say that the best defense against them is to destroy them in warehouses," he said."
According to Ignat, the world will be able to help Ukraine if it finds mechanisms to prevent the delivery of Iranian missiles to the Russian Federation.
Ukraine don't have anti ballistic missile capabilities - according the Ukrop air force command
Hitting warehouses problematic since 300-700 km range mobile systems , HIMARS only 80 km
Can't wait when the fireworks starts ☺️ will be lit
Combat support role would be more interested (strategic is straight forward) , with 5-10 Fateh you can destroy a ukrop stronghold or village full with ukrop troops . (Russia don't doing it because they don't have many spare ones, soon they have - hell unleashed)
Best bait them into fighting or counter attack then blow everything up when they assembled with 500 kg warheads x10 missile can kill everything using shockwaves and shrapnels in 30-50 meters circle ⭕️
~ 5 acres complete devastation in well selected pattern using 10 but most cases only few enough to hit troop concentrations
Usual ukrop attack groups is 5 BMP and 1-2 tanks , 1-2 missile enough to take all them out when they bogged down in fighting or recon drone spotted them in the preparation phase
Report GPS location and in minutes arrives Problem with suicide drones they only kill what they hit 🎯 not all around
"Iran has agreed to transfer ballistic missiles and a new batch of drones to Russia," the Reuters news agency reported, citing two senior Iranian officials and diplomats. The agency clarifies that on October 6, former Deputy Prime Minister of Iran Mohammad Moher, together with representatives of the IRGC, visited Moscow for talks.
"The Russians had asked for more drones and those Iranian ballistic missiles with improved accuracy, particularly the Fateh and Zolfaghar missiles family," said one of the Iranian diplomats, who was briefed about the trip.
Also, one of the members of the deal said that Russia had asked for "hundreds" of medium- and short-range missiles, to which Iran agreed, but with reservations about the impossibility of providing such a number of missiles at once. (They don't have a large stock of medium range missiles, but can send several hundred short range ones now)
It was agreed that the missiles will start being delivered in batches in about 10 days.

The US intelligence community is confident that Iran continues to build up military ties with Moscow. It is already supplying Russia with combat drones - and is also preparing to send new modifications of kamikaze drones that can fly over a distance of 2,000 kilometers.
But the Fateh-110 and Zolfaghar medium-range surface-to-surface missiles can now be added to the drones. They are the main types of Iranian missiles sent for export. The first is capable of flying 300 kilometers, the second - 700.
In addition, against the background of the Ukrainian crisis, Iran is trying to quickly adopt its analog of the American HIMARS missile systems. The new Iranian systems - called Fateh 360-are similar to HIMARS, but their missile speeds are twice as fast. The firing range is 80-100 kilometers, the missiles use Russian Glonass for guidance.
It is quite possible that these missile systems will be able to receive a “baptism of fire” on the Ukrainian front at some point. American military experts note that Iranian weapons have their drawbacks, but their main advantages are simplicity of design and low cost.
The supply of weapons to Russia will certainly lead to new sanctions from Washington. However, against the background of the failure of negotiations with Biden on a new nuclear deal, Tehran may take such risks. Western markets for its oil are probably closed forever. Therefore, Iran will continue to focus on Russia and China - and at the expense of the Ukrainian conflict, it will try to promote the reputation of its weapons in order to strengthen its position in the global arms market.

Arash 2 is the latest heavy kamikaze drone, carries a warhead weighing more than 100 kg, has a greater speed and range to the target.
It can automatically lock onto air-defence radars that emit radiation.
in its appearance and aerodynamic shape it resembles a cruise missile rather than a UAV-but with a piston engine!
Pictured are Arash-2 with thermal and optical camera in nose.

There are some claims that Russian engineers assisted Iran in the development of their drones and that they have all the necessary documentation to produce them in Russia as a way to give Iran plausible deniability to say they don't supply them
(There have been several reports that Russia is getting some of these drones; but I have read other reports which say that Russia requested these newest Iranian drones in September; but the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps turned them down for fear they would fall into the hands of the U.S.)
Another Iranian military transport plane has arrived in Moscow. Russia is getting 500 per month (lots of Iranian cargo planes landing in Moscow) but will be producing their own at 100 a day by the end of the year.

Our source reports that Western partners are warning the Office of the President that the Russians are about to expand their range of unmanned "aerial drones".
A huge number of UAV operators are now being trained in the Russian Federation, as well as mass assembly of drones, which are produced by the RF. We have been insinuating this since the summer.
The only chance for Bankova is that Russia will be negligent about this matter or will once again lose the most of the allocated billions due to corrupton. In the opposite case, this is a very bad sign for the Ukrainian Armed Forces as the transferred Western air defence systems will not be sufficient to repel constant air raids, and it is always difficult and expensive to resupply missiles for NATO armaments.

There's been a telephone conversation between the Russian and US defence ministers
The conversation between the US and Russian defense ministers initiated by Washington was necessary to eliminate misunderstandings and eliminate risks
Obongo gave Iran the drones.
How is it possible that Iran has more military strength than the Rooskies?
Putin wants to go muzzie?
These are preparatory fires for a larger upcoming operation, not the decisive action itself.
What is the point for a 70 yr. old to rule a wasteland?
I said the same on another post. The Russians need ballistic missiles from a country ruled by 11th century mullahs.? The mind boggles. Russia put the world’s first satellite in orbit. They have SSBNs, 4th and 5th generation aircraft. If Iran can supply Russia needed weapons better than Russia can produce for itself then what kind of weapons does Israel produce that can intimidate Iran.
Only you would be cheering the mullahs here. Who next, the Norks? Definitely the ChiComs.
it’s bs
Now that the war has gone on for months, and Putin has put the entire country on a war footing, it could be possible that the Russians will also start building bombs to replace the ones they've already deployed.
Note also that the US has depleted its reserves to a point where it can't send more to Ukraine without putting our own armed forces in danger.
The 9K720 Iskander is a mobile short-range ballistic missile system produced and deployed by the Russian military.
It isn’t a matter of inferior missiles, it’s a matter of how many thousands, tens of thousands do you have lying around. Throughout this entire 8 months what Western analysts have been most surprised about is that they haven’t run out yet.
As you can see from Russia’s plan they want to have enough to use profusely, not sparingly. Using Iran’s low cost missiles will allow Russia to even use them on troop formations which will dramatically change the battleground.
The Mullah’s probably got those from Barack Hussein.
If we have depleted resources this fast, we aren’t ready to deal with China on any level.
Clearly this calls for $50 billion from the US to.....
....bankrupt the US?

Too bad no one here in the U.S. would be allowed to say that on TV. Thanks for posting it, though, it is nice to see someone in Germany who is able to publicly deal with reality.
Iran claims the drones are not theirs. Could be they are jointly developed like the Indian Brahmos cruise missile.
Who said that the Iranian weapons are better? The idea thst they are bad is strange though. What makes the Iranian weapons bad? The US is using foreign weapons as well.
They tried that already and it failed.
What is different now that they think they can succeed?
Are they stronger, or the Ukes weaker there?
I say this not because I have a “side”, but I have studied war my whole life, 22 years in the military, and all I can see is a higher risk for an attacker to try again without fundamental changes in forces, tactics and supply.
