Practice makes perfect.

At first thought, telegraphing that a ground attack may be an option sounds ridiculous. But maybe that was also to serve a purpose. If it was seen that the Iranians took that threat seriously, then it would be a sign that there was something in there worth defending.

There's a bulldozer and what looks to be a lot of dump trucks there in the picture. Suchomimus on YT discussed the dirt piled up in the entrances as well. I wonder if this wasn't bomb protection, but to protect the facilities from a ground infiltration, as the Israelis had been hinting at. Thoughts?

Thanks! I'd never heard of one, but I did a quick search and sure enough, found this: theaviationist.com/2025/06/18/i...

Something that isn't quite adding up for me. Iranian missile attacks *seem* to be less and less effective as this fight goes on, and yet, in the past 24hr, there's been a flurry from multiple nations to get their people out. Why the rush now?

Nevermind, looks like it's heading to Dubai instead. Charter perhaps.

There's a 747 that departed London that looks like it might be heading there as well. No ID according to Flightradar24. www.flightradar24.com/3ada51aa

There's been quite a few AI fakes going about, and so I wonder if this is one of those. Here's a long shot possibility though: This might be an RQ-180.

Looking at pictures of the Simorgh and Saegheh, I see that both of those drones have a somewhat shallower "serrated edge" at the rear than the long, nearly right-angle edges of the craft in that video. I agree, B-21 is highly unlikely, but it seems to most closely resemble one.

I've read this before as proof that time travel within the same timeline is impossible. But if I remember correctly, the current best scientific understanding is that we can't go back along the same timeline; when we do we make a new one.

What makes this all the more ironic to me is GenAI scraps papers written by historians, political scientists, and economists for those very same answers.

Don't know what this is supposed to represent, but those "orders" on the right reference a bunch of aircraft types that don't exist or have long since been retired (F-111Ds? C-141s?)

Ahhh, I see your video now. They're probably referring to this scene: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GS3n...

I haven't seen your video yet, but I'll take the opportunity to comment on what I'm guessing is a reference to my favorite movie. It's a 1992 caper film where one the characters is a blind electronics wizard/phreak, loosely based on a couple of real-world phone phreaks. Really worth a watch.

NM, think I found it. Looks like a jamming pod: www.iai.co.il/sites/defaul...

What's that pod on the F-15's left CFT? I don't recognize it.
