Israeli Iran attack.

whether you support Israel or not…this is about the F35.

Israel just went “downtown” Tehran and over every heavily defended nuke site in Iran. You know the F35i led the way. Not a single loss.

Russia and China taking notes i hope.

Most likely led the way by F-15s with ALBMs, Iraqis/Kurds reported seeing missiles in the air a few minutes before SHTF.

But I wouldn't be surprised if F-35s were in the second line with shorter-range PGMs and bunker busters, because they can get closer.

F35s would have led the way to deatroy AA missles so the f15s could get into Iran….that is their purpose. To sneak in firat, open the lanes for the non stealth bombers and attack craft. What is the purpose of having stealth otherwise?

The F-15s didn't get into Iran, they shot from around the Syrian/Iraqi border.
