Arab Analyst: Iran Has Changed World’s Military Equations

Tehran: Prominent Arab analyst Abdel Bari Atwan has declared that the Islamic Republic of Iran has transformed global military dynamics, highlighting the country's significant achievements in targeting US military bases with ballistic missiles and pursuing US F-35 and F-15 stealth aircraft.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Atwan, in an opinion piece published on Rai al-Youm, an Arab-world digital news and opinion website, stated that Iran has countered every phase of the US-Israeli offensives throughout the ongoing conflict, now in its seventh month, by deploying advanced missiles and weaponry. This strategic maneuvering has led to considerable confusion for Israel and the United States.

The analyst further elaborated on Iran's enhanced military capabilities, noting the substantial harm inflicted on US military assets across West Asia. This includes the obliteration of the American logistical maritime base in Manama and the notable effect of Iranian ballistic missiles on US military installations across the region. Atwan also observed that these Iranian offensives have compelled the US and Israel to expend significant quantities of their air defense missiles.

By referencing a statement from Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, Atwan asserted that Iran's military possesses the capability to track and target F-35 and F-15 stealth aircraft, suggesting Iran's potential to further alter global military equations. Additionally, he pointed to the recent disclosure regarding Saudi Arabia's acquisition of 48 F-35 fighters and Israel's lobbying efforts for the US government to supply advanced missile and defense systems previously withheld from Israel.

As the situation continues to evolve, Atwan concluded that the future remains uncertain.
