So if Western tanks are so good and Trophy is so effective, than what prevents you from invading Southern Lebanon and finishing off Hezbollah once and for all time for the purpose of security of the northern borders of your small country? What prevents you from taking out Hezbollah under...

APS might sound like an effective system in theory, but it was never tested in real war and it is very expensive with additional 1mln$ for Israeli Trophy system or South Korean KAPS.... When Israel said they will invade Lebanon with Merkavas equipped with Trophy APS, Hezbollah said they will...

The problem is that Shahed-136 is not Qassam rocket of Hamas with its high infrared signature and predictable flight path. Shahed-136 has low infrared signature, low radar signature, flies low, is small and difficult to intercept..... You will need more advanced and more expensive missiles to...

Regarding defense-offence package You can defend you skies cheaper with air defense systems like Ukraine does and by targeting enemy air bases with those 100.000 drones-----and with that many drones you can devastate your enemy more effectively than with 43 Su-35 which might not even penetrate...

I want to compare Iranian drones (Arash-2/Shahed-136) with Iranian ballistic missiles and combat aircrafts. One Shahed-136 (50kg warhead) costs 20.000$ and one Arash-2 (150kg warhead) probably costs 70.000$ 30.000 Arash-2 drones * 70.000$ + 70.000 Shahed 136 drones * 20.000$ ==3,5 bln dollars...

The tunnels of this base look too narrow for Su-35 or Su-57, but they can be fine for Su-75 Checkmate (price: 30mln$ per unit) or J-31 (price: 70mln$ per unit)

Claims that Roman Empire's population was 60mln people is a claim by biased Europocentrist historians from Europe.....European estimates of Roman Empire's population range between 30mln and 60mln people with 30mln being closer to reality. From military point of view Romans were no match even...
