The US Air Force deployed a squadron of A-10 Thunderbolt II attack aircraft to the UAE to help Israel

The United States continues to gather forces in the Middle East in case of conflict escalation; American A-10 Thunderbolt II attack aircraft have arrived in the United Arab Emirates. The Wall Street Journal reports this.

According to an American publication citing the Pentagon, on October 12, A-10 Thunderbolt II attack aircraft landed at Al Dhafra airbase in the United Arab Emirates. We are talking about a squadron based at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona. Previously, the United States stationed its combat aircraft in the UAE in case of a large-scale war in the region, since it is possible that Iran and Lebanon could get involved in the conflict.

The Pentagon announced that some of the fighter jets ordered by the Biden administration to protect Israel and deter further attacks arrived in the region on Thursday.

- the newspaper writes.

Meanwhile, the second American nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69) left the Norfolk naval base and, together with its AUG, moved to the Middle East. At the moment, the final point of its route is called the Persian Gulf, but everything could change and it will join the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78) already in the Mediterranean Sea.

Also the day before, Great Britain announced the dispatch of two ships to the coast of Israel. The Royal Navy support ship and large landing ship are based in Oman and will arrive in Israel fairly quickly. The British also announced the start of reconnaissance flights over Israeli territory. In general, the West is preparing for war.

I’m not bloodthirsty, of course, and I feel sorry for every person who lives and brings benefit to society, but I would gladly let these two tubs sink to the bottom, these ones that bring democracy, “freedom”, and other troubles are so sick of them that even human words are on them then you don’t find it.

These are really old tanks that could become a legitimate target for the Arabs at one of the air bases, fortunately there are now enough drones...

[Soldatov V.]

Now we will wait for the experimental combat use of drones against aircraft carriers. Both quantity and quality will be tested. 50-100 Lancet-type UAVs and no aircraft.

Someone desperately needs a big one (Bada Boom). To get out of economic problems through war.

Essentially, the gathering of serious forces, two aircraft carrier groups, and even in the Mediterranean, is somehow annoying that they will roll out Palestine and the fool is understandable, but the result that Israel shows by ironing Gaza is shocking, at home the missile and bomb attack is stacked like a house of cards, this is the true face democracy and fascism in one bottle, I don’t approve of the Palestinians, but with what cruelty the Israeli military beats civilians, women, children, it’s just shocking, this video is enough in the telegrams, they’re just fascists and nothing more!

Judging by the Pentagon's statements

some of the fighter jets the Biden administration has ordered defend Israel and deter further attacks, arrived in the region on Thursday

this smacks not only of moral support, but also of the possible use of the A-10 in a conflict today. Or, out of habit, they are trying to “scare” those who will side with Hamas with such a statement. The Americans are again rushing to the conflict area with a little petrol.

I wonder... how much these bowls cost... even one with filling is very, very much
And comrades with the stars and stripes are taking a huge risk in the age of drones... releasing them without mega cover
Israel with its “military power” has already lost its reputation because of people in flip-flops and slippers... the United States can do the same... from simple cheap drones and missiles made from water pipes... lose a lot of capital and authority

[novel66]

Not counting our own aviation - 4 Burke and Ticonderoga. Quite a mega cover. Surely something is rummaging around under water too

[Yaro Polk]

these planes... for killing civilian manpower.

[Bianconeri]

And of course, the majority of those produced will have a core made of that same depleted uranium..

[elbrus]

they were not given to dill, because... an easy target for air defense, but purely in terms of manpower they will do with Kalash... these warthogs seemed to want to write off

[TermNachTer]

And sho, they helped a lot?))) It would be interesting to see how good they are at hitting the “Needle”, or the “Stinger”?)))

[m4rtin.frost]

Why didn’t these attack aircraft give it to Ukraine?
