Israel Achieves Air Superiority Over Iran: F-35I, F-16, and F-15 Jets Dominate Airspace After Degrading Iranian Air Defenses. Long-range strikes, including attacks on Tehran and Mashhad airport, showcase Israel's effective use of JDAMs and SPICE bombs in ongoing operation targeting Iranian nuclear and military infrastructure
Israel Achieves Air Superiority Over Iran: F-35I Stealth Jets Lead Devastating Strikes. Days into a major operation targeting Iran's nuclear program and military infrastructure, including surface-to-air missile launchers, Israel declared overwhelming air dominance, utilizing F-35I, F-16, and F-15 fighter jets armed with JDAM and SPICE bombs. Long-range strikes, like the attack on Mashhad airport, demonstrate Israel's uncontested aerial capabilities
Israel's air campaign utilizes advanced F-35I stealth fighter jets and fourth-generation aircraft (F-16, F-15) to maintain air superiority over Iran. These strikes, employing cost-effective precision-guided munitions like JDAMs and SPICE bombs, target Iranian air defenses and military infrastructure, including the recent long-range attack on Mashhad airport. This demonstrates Israel's ability to conduct deep-strike operations within Iranian airspace with minimal opposition
Israel's long-range airstrike on Mashhad airport, 1400 miles inside Iran, demonstrates its air superiority. This daring attack, utilizing F-35I and other fighter jets, marks the furthest strike yet in Israel's ongoing campaign to degrade Iran's nuclear program and military capabilities, highlighting its ability to operate largely unchallenged in Iranian airspace
Israel's successful airstrikes against Iranian air defenses and military airports significantly weaken Iran's ability to impede Israeli air operations, according to the Institute for the Study of War. These strikes, utilizing precision-guided munitions like JDAMs and SPICE bombs, demonstrate Israel's growing air superiority over Iranian airspace
Israeli F-16 and F-15 fighter jets are utilizing Boeing-made Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMs) in precision strikes against Iranian targets. These cost-effective, GPS-guided munitions, converted from unguided "dumb bombs," are enabling long-range attacks deep within Iranian territory, despite not being classified as stand-off weapons
Israeli airstrikes on Iran utilize precision-guided munitions, including US-made JDAMs (Joint Direct Attack Munitions) and Israeli-made SPICE bombs from Rafael Advanced Defense Systems. These smart bombs, converting unguided ordnance into accurate weapons, demonstrate Israel's effective air campaign against Iranian targets
Israel's successful airstrikes in Iran, including around Tehran, utilize JDAMs and SPICE bombs, demonstrating its air superiority. These precision-guided munitions (PGMs), including the Smart, Precise Impact, Cost-Effective SPICE bombs, suggest a reduced reliance on expensive missiles for high-value targets, showcasing Israel's expanded operational options and decreased vulnerability to Iranian air defenses
Iran's Weakened Air Force Responds: Over 370 Ballistic Missiles Fired at Israel. Following intensive Israeli airstrikes targeting Iranian air defenses and military infrastructure, Iran has launched a retaliatory barrage of over 370 ballistic missiles, resulting in at least 30 impact sites, over 590 injuries, and dozens of fatalities, according to Israeli government reports
Israel's cost-effective air campaign against Iran utilizes affordable precision-guided munitions like JDAMs and SPICE bombs, costing tens of thousands of dollars each, a stark contrast to the multi-million dollar ballistic missiles. This cost advantage allows for sustained, large-scale strikes against Iranian air defenses and military infrastructure
Israel's air campaign against Iran has significantly depleted Tehran's missile arsenal. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Iranian missiles capable of reaching Israel remain, but Israeli strikes have reportedly destroyed a third of their launchers, severely limiting Iran's retaliatory capabilities. This follows successful attacks on Iranian air defenses, establishing Israeli air superiority and enabling long-range strikes deep within Iranian territory
Despite Iran's deployment of hundreds of low-cost Shahed-136 drones (estimated at just $20,000 each), their slower speed and increased vulnerability make them significantly easier for Israel to intercept, compared to more expensive missile systems
Iran's missile and drone attacks force Israel to deplete costly air defenses, incurring significant financial burdens. A single Iron Dome interceptor costs approximately $50,000, while Arrow-3 interceptors, capable of space-based target interception, cost millions
US support for Israel's air campaign against Iran: American forces assisted in intercepting Iranian missiles targeting Israel, but maintain they are not participating in offensive actions
Israel launches Operation Rising Lion, a major air campaign targeting Iran's nuclear program and military infrastructure. F-35I, F-16, and F-15 fighter jets have achieved air superiority, striking key targets including Tehran and Mashhad airport with JDAMs and SPICE bombs. This intensive operation aims to significantly degrade Iran's nuclear capabilities and air defense systems
Israeli fighter jets have carried out widespread airstrikes across Iran, targeting its nuclear facilities and top scientists, in addition to other military targets, such as Tehran’s missile launchers, weapons production sites, air defenses, and senior commanders.
The operation could derail President Donald Trump’s efforts to reach a new nuclear deal with Iran. Tehran argues that its nuclear program is for civilian use only. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long pushed for a military approach to deal with what he describes as an existential threat.
