FOX is on the money, it's a Russkie sub alright, a Kilo-class diesel valued at about $250 million each. The submarines are said to be equipped with six tubes for firing torpedoes or laying mines.
From Putin's Moscow, with love, to their anti-Western jihadist comrades in Tehran.
ENEMY WEAPON: Russian VA-111 Shkval
Do we have to wonder why Putin is so opposed to slapping Iran with sanctions?
Russia Rules Out Iran Sanctions for Now
One of Putin's anti-Western reasons:
Russia Enters Final Stage of Bushehr Nuclear Project in Iran
Defiant Iran vows to continue making nuclear fuel
Behind the obvious anti-American & anti-Israeli enemies of OPEC's Iran, Syria, North Korea, Cuba & OPEC's Venezuela is the Kremlin, coupled with Red China, supplying these enemy states with massive military arsenals to fight offensive wars. Nothing has changed since the old days. Russia & Red China are still using client states in their proxy war against the West.
During Iran's "Blow of Zolfaqar" wargames they have already test fired submarine launched missiles in practice trials for blasting oil supertankers entering or exiting the Persian Gulf.
Some of the new missiles being tested are coast-to-sea, surface-to-surface and air-to-surface. If additional sanctions are implemented, Tehran's Islamic thugs are preparing to swiftly respond militarily, knowing that any threat to energy related shipping lanes of the Gulf will increase the price of oil dramatically, in which the Mullah régime will earn more billions for their global jihad, plus the enemy will also attempt to divide those nations involved in more economic pressures against Iran especially those countries dependent on overseas sources of oil and natural gas.
The Iranians have and shall continue playing the energy markets for all they are worth, considering they are in the drivers seat and are manipulating the price of crude oil up or down through their actions or rumors of action.
Iran's Islamic dictatorship earns huge sums of revenue if oil climbs in price, or declines in price, and they, like Saddam have become masters of "insider trading". Each time crude oil rises or decreases $1, that equals $1K per contract - for more advanced Russian or Red Chinese weaponry, more terrorist training, bundles of cold cash (OPEC profits) for the Islamic serial killers of Hamas, Hezballah, Iraq's Shi'ite gangs of jihadists on their rampage of death & destruction against American & Coalition troops, plus those Iranian agents slithering back and forth over the Afghan-Iran border & on & on & on...
When are we in the West going to wake up and hit this barbaric enemy before they trigger a Western economic meltdown?
Israel will not wait until Iran launches "ovens from Persian skies". Never Again!
