Iran gegen Israel: Eine Analyse ihrer militärischen Stärken, möglichen Konfliktszenarien und wie ihre Technologien und Allianzen sie in dieser Situation positionieren.

Kind of funny that the first point about an Israeli/Iranian conflict is to cite the amount of tanks.

The numbers alone don’t mean much in this kind of conflict.

While Iran can cause some damage to Israel, their “551 aircraft for strong aerial defense and offense” can’t even reach Israel, conduct airstrikes and return to Iran, so it’s not relevant.

Israel on the other hand has proved that it can attack in places further away from Iran (Yemen), destroy entire complexes and return home safely.

Also, the multi-layered defense capabilities which Israel has and iran isn’t, will be a game changer in this type of warfare also.

So basically, it doesn’t matter how much aircrafts, tanks and armored vehicles you have, what’s important is who’s your friends (Israel have the entire western allies besides them), your ability to make your opponent collapse in a relatively short amount of time (Israel can do all sort of stuff in order to do so, i’m not even talking about the unconventional means) and your ability to protect yourself as much as possible (again, multi-layered defense capabilities vs basically the nothing that iran have).

While Iran will probably try to regain some of their dignity, they know that in a relatively short time, if they overdo it they could cause the collapse of their country and regime.

Option 1: Israel somehow manages to persuade the USA to fight Iran for them. The war is happening.
Option 2: Israel does not manage to persuade the USA to fight Iran for them. The war is not happening because nobody can deliver troops.

Yes, it’s as simple as that. You can’t win a war just by bombing your enemy (Israel) or getting your proxy to throw missiles at your enemy (Iran). Bombs and missiles are not capable of conquering territory.
