The threat to Iran from the base of the United States and the United Kingdom on the Chagos Archipelago

The Great Prophet 6 maneuvers recently carried out in Iran using ballistic and cruise missiles clearly demonstrated the growth of its military power. They used the Persian Gulf missiles (anti-ship missile with a range of up to 300 km), Thunderstorm (anti-ship missiles with a range of up to 200 km), Shahab-1, -2, -3; At the second stage of the maneuvers, several types of coast-to-sea cruise missiles were demonstrated. True, the radius of the tested ballistic missiles is limited to two thousand kilometers (according to other sources, 1900 kilometers). Moreover, the Iranian military and politicians said they did not intend to increase the range of Iran’s missiles. Although, it is clear that increasing the impact capabilities, including missile range, is a vital necessity for Iran.

The missiles that are in service with the Iranian Armed Forces can inflict certain damage to the US bases in the region and strike the oil-producing infrastructure of the Arab countries - allies of the USA; the Shahab-3 missiles can fly to Israel. But this is not enough to really stop the threat of an attack by the United States and Israel. The United States has sufficient reserves of fuel and its sources to survive the crisis in the Persian Gulf, and the difficulties of European countries, China is even a plus, competitors will be worse. Now, if Iran’s missiles could finish off to the US base on the Chagos Archipelago (Diego Garcia Atoll) in the Indian Ocean, this would be a different alignment.

The US military base on the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean is currently the main arsenal for rapid deployment forces in this region and one of the largest US Air Force bases in the world. In addition, there is an advanced base station of the US Navy, which is capable of receiving ships and vessels of all classes. On the basis of the Navy Diego Garcia are based 2 squadron of ships, warehouses, which are intended for the early storage of military equipment, weapons and logistics for the advanced strike groups of all types of US Armed Forces. So, on the ships of the warehouses of one of these squadrons a whole brigade set of military equipment, armaments and support equipment for the US Marine Corps brigade is calculated from the calculation of actions for one month. On the ships of the second squadron of ships, warehouses placed equipment, weapons and logistics for armored and mechanized brigades, as well as units of the Air Force. The transfer of these two squadrons of warehouse ships to the Persian Gulf region can be carried out within one week. A military airfield on Diego Garcia is able to receive and serve all types of combat aircraft. For example, the famous “veterans” of the US Air Force, the strategic bombers B-52, are periodically based here. In addition, even during the campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq, the United States began to deploy B-2 strategic bombers here. Previously, the B-2 Northrop bombers were not used by the United States in foreign military campaigns, it is one of the most technologically sophisticated and expensive US aircraft. Periodically, the base is used as a secret prison of the CIA. The military base of the closest ally of the USA - Great Britain is also located here, the official name of the British territory is British territory in the Indian Ocean.

This base is the strategic stronghold of the Anglo-Saxons in the Indian Ocean. Moreover, after the completion of the so-called. In the Cold War, this base not only did not lose its significance, but, on the contrary, the United States only strengthened its position there. The base is very conveniently located - between the African continent, India and Australia. According to many analysts, raids aviation The US and Israel, the attacks of sea-based cruise missiles will not solve all the problems, since Tehran in a number of cases hid the most important objects, including nuclear ones, underground, at great depths, or in mountain shelters. Therefore, without strikes with the help of strategic aviation, the war cannot be set. It is not at all accidental that in 2010 the fact of delivering 387 bombs of special power to this base was announced, they are specifically designed to destroy fortifications and large enemy targets at great depths (of which: 195 are Blu-110 high-precision “smart bombs” ; 192 are 2000lb Blu-117 heavy bombs). It is clear that such weapons are not intended to fight the Taliban in Afghanistan, their targets will be objects in Iran. So, the director of the Center for International Studies and Diplomacy in England, Dan Plesch, actually admitted that "the bombs were made specifically to destroy Iran."

Therefore, Tehran needs missiles capable of hitting 5 thousand. Km, such an argument would make the enemy think, and it is worth it.

Iran needs to unite, look for allies such as Syria. They will not stand alone! They need to deploy their bases at each other, at least slightly protecting themselves.

[cVM]

Russia needs to help Iran, sell weapons, transfer a couple of Topol rocket balloons (for free) to strengthen relations, and now the United States and Israel and tomorrow and Russia will be the enemy of Iran. All the same, neighbors by sea

[Winchester]

Laugh) And why should the Iranians Poplar, if they even do not have a nuclear bomb?
How many KVOs do Topol-M have? 200 meters? Shoot a rocket with such accuracy with a conventional warhead? Oh yeah...

[Romich_S1]

We cannot supply ballistic and cruise missiles to Iran, because it is an attack weapon. But to strengthen Iran’s air defense is quite real, and does not contradict international sanctions. However, we still refused to put the S-300, which surprises me and upsets.

[PSih2097]

Through Syria, this can be done, who prevents the modernization of the c200 (dvina)?

[APASUS]

The United States now has problems for this and one more war they don’t need. Unless Israel can strike Iran at the behest of Washington, but in a military conflict, Iran can bombard the entire Persian Gulf with deep bombs. The rising oil price will hit the states again. Until the USA deal with default war is unlikely!

[PSih2097]

They need a war, not, not so - WAR, because houses of problems are higher than the roof, and as you look, attention from within will shift to foreign policy.

[cVM]

Yes, Iran can block oil at least, and the price per barrel of oil will rise by at least 35%. But doing so is also a risky economic recession will be denied. Yes and Iran, in fact, a banana country has nothing except oil gas. It has not developed neither technology nor domestic opk , and she needs such countries as Turkey, China. I am very sorry that we did not sell the S-300 PMU to Iran, jobs would be opened for at least 5 thousand. To produce the S-300 is a long but profitable business (for sale). The Russian Federation must understand, we need to look for allies, the United States is a clear enemy, and counting on China is dangerous. And Iran, Syria. Libya, Pakistan. even Turkey itself would be good allies.

[alex_97597]

Sorry, but Turkey is part of NATO, i.e. it is an ally of the United States

[spirit]

With such a base, you can bomb Iran in the Stone Age.

Ahmadinejad bluntly stated that Russia is a friendly country. Iran has no contradiction with Russia - after the revolution swept the pro-American regime. After that, all tension at the border immediately disappeared - provocations ceased - flights of US planes and so on.
Recently, Iran handed over to the United States the downed UAVs of Russia - the technology Russia really needs now - and added its UAVs based on previously downed UAVs (which is even touching - it’s unlikely that the Iranians blinded something advanced)
Iran supports Syria - our only close ally in the region - the location of the base of the Russian Navy.
Iran speaks with Russia on key and most important issues (and they are about oil)
Unfortunately, Russia, having lost the Cold War to the United States, having inside itself the 5th column of liberals podpindosniki, is now, as it were, under the "yoke" of the United States, pays "tribute" and is very carefully trying to recover and recreate the Union back (like Ivan Kalita in his time) ... It cannot (as the USSR could) say loudly - hands off Syria and Iran - cannot speak out openly against Israel and the United States by selling the C 300 to Iran, but of course it is trying to do something .. (source - Nikolai Starikov - "Shershe la Oil" )
сVM - Iran and Syria are almost allies, Turkey and Pakistan are yesterday’s enemies - we need to look closely. The litmus test (lice test) will be the escalation or lack of conflict between Turkey and Syria (well, Iran is the only country that probably has the courage to stand up for our ally instead of us)
And they don’t need to sell poplars of course - this is a challenge and there will already be a war from the usa
- and we are still "lying on our backs"

[Professor]

Iran recently handed over US downed drones to Russia - technologies that Russia really needs now - and added its UAVs based on previously shot down (which is even touching - it is unlikely that the Iranians blinded something advanced)

"Where did the firewood come from?" Please share your information.
And yet, debris is far from technology!

Here was an article on top war ru
And other sites wrote - for example
http://geopolitica.ru/News/5666/
Iran shot down American drones and handed over to Russia for study
Опубликовали: 2011-06-28 16:26:48
The commander of the aviation and space forces of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, said that Russian specialists gained access to American drones shot down by his subordinates in Iranian airspace.

According to him, the Russians asked to provide them with fragments of American equipment for study, and the Iranians did not refuse. In addition, Tehran demonstrated to Moscow its own drones made using American technology extracted from downed vehicles.

Earlier, Iran officially announced the destruction of two drones belonging to the US Navy over its territory. It was not specified which devices were shot down. Tehran only reported that the Americans had lost their "latest designs" capable of staying in the air for hours without refueling.

Well, in principle, Ivan already answered - I read it here - there was still a funny comment on Figwama - Ahmadinejad is not greedy - unlike us - a pun and a hint that we took money and didn’t put in any money, didn’t return the money - unscrupulous act under pressure you know who

[Kolyn]

Our suckers are kakieto. They allow fucking americos and to create everything in the world in a row. We would have at least once gotten the go-ahead to the Americans and started to respect more

[Volkhov]

Iran simply lies across the road from Israel (which floods in 2013) to Afghanistan (which does not flood). The Chosen People and the Exodus are sacred and priceless concepts, and the price of oil, money, and the lives of the natives is vanity. Only railway traffic to Afghanistan - 5000 tons daily for several years - is evacuation cargo. Revolutions - securing the rear and flanks of the route. The "Americans" have everything right, except that they hide basic knowledge from people - they fell for the provocation of external culture.
Teach physics - life will become more interesting.

[magirus.75]

"Basic knowledge"? What are you talking about? excuse me please ..

[Volkhov]

"Mayan calendar" is not a calendar, but a diagram of physical fields, a rotating celestial body with a magnetic field - a star (inside), the period of the Earth's pulsation is about 13500 years, the bottom of the oceans rises during the pulsation (flood) and many other interesting phenomena. China has survived 9 cycles, there are chronicles ... The modern pulsation mechanism was launched unambiguously in the spring of 2010 (the South Magnetic Pole disappeared for half an hour), abnormal weather is an external manifestation of the rearrangement of the inner shells (absorption of electrons). After the polarity reversal of the Sun (summer 2012) and the passage of the Earth between the Sun and Jupiter (two magnets opposite to the Earth) in December 2012, the magnetic field will give a pulsation impulse, with a standard delay of Jupiter's influence of 120 days, an impulse from below can be expected in April 2013, part of this date is written on the floor Hagia Sophia in Constantinople.
All this is not very new, well-known, but fragmented into pieces - only the Nazis and Masons were not too lazy to study physics and history and now they are preparing nests for themselves, hoping for a monopoly in the new World. They have very clean hands - most will die by stupidity. Unfortunately, they are mistaken - not only people need the world - that’s why there are 2 groups - Nazis and Zionists - for self-liquidation, and the third move is mate - cleaning up the remains.
Here is such basic knowledge briefly, and so - 10 years, a ton of books, elaboration of practical options, surveillance, I saw the effect of an aerosol such as sarin - 3 minutes to the result, in general, like Iranian scientists, only there is an armored car besides a motorcycle. As he wrote - life is more interesting than before understanding ...
