cant saudis and other GCC members use highways and moterways for landing and fueling to avoid Iranian ballistic missile attacks on air bases?

The question is if the iranian missiles can get there, it's not that simple. Because of :

The GCC have the:
MIM-104 Patriot
THAAD
NASAMS
Aster
Aspide
Crotale
MICA
RIM-116
MEADS
And have been offered the S-300/400 on several occasions.

agree here but Iranian also cliam they have thousands of ballistic and cruise missiles which can overwhelm air defences of any regional country , in case if needed can GCC turn their highways and motarways into full fledge bases? I think if not then they should look into this option..

Technically speaking they could.

Good but are we gonna fly over their land , and we always can deal with them with Fateh And zoalfaqar missiles.

but how?

 

[Hack-Hook]

but how?

Simple that air defence face 20 zelzal or Shahab 1 and between them 1 zoalfaqr or fateh and those two missile have a CEP of less than 10m do you think how much of thaad remain intact if a fateh 110 fall at 10m of it ?
How long that air force can operate if we target power planets , refineries and port and believe me those can be considered double use facilities .

Lol.

There are only two missiles in that list capable of intercepting the lower tier of Iranian missiles, and thats the PAC-3 and the THAAD. Some of the other ones you mentioned are CIWS missiles, lel.

And Iran's newest missiles, even the shorter range ones, have manoeuvrable warheads which makes them even more difficult to intercept.

In any case, if we wanted to take out a THAAD or something we'd send a few cruise missiles to fly in below their minimum altitude, that's the anti ballistic missiles gone, then send in the ballistics.

What do you mean lol?

Those are NATO's best SAMS.

 

[AmirPatriot]

Lol because you are saying this:

Will intercept this:

An ordinary SAM is not enough, much less a RIM-116 which you posted above, which is a CIWS with a range of a few km. To destroy a ballistic missile you need specialised missiles with long range, high speed, sophisticated electronics and high agility. Only the PAC-3 and THAAD in your list fit those criteria.

Iran’s Defense Ministry is going to unveil an home-made helicopter Saba-248 and an advanced main battle tank Karrar in the near future, Defense Minister Brigadier General Hossein Dehqan said Wednesday, November 16, 2016. Read full news at this link http://www.armyrecognition.com/november_2016_glob…/index.php

Only thanks to armor found in iraq and southern lebanon , Thank you israel

Iranian are interesting people.
They pick turret of T72 and fit it on M60 and name it some XYZ new tank.
Then they pick M60 turret and put in on T72 chassis and name it some ABC new tank.
Same sort of relation is shared by T55 and M48.

They never reveal data about technical capability, production and deployment status.
Same thing happened with Sabalan Tank, Zulfiqar3 Tank, Tian tank and now we have Karrar tank which look like Iranian clone of T72 tank.

It's not only iranians , the israeli merkava too is a reversed engineered tank , the merkava mark 1 infact was designed to be a neither western nor eastern tank ; of course we are not as fanatic as them in our tank designs and we don't blush if they found out our tanks look like a t-55 , patton tank hybrid

the soviets too started their nuclear program and long range bombers with spying and reverse engineering , there is no difference between iran and soviet union.

China is only country which when makes copy makes a better one than the original

indeed , china and israel , depending on what you would call a copy

Not a copy !

It's a heavily upgraded T-72 ...

looks more like a t-72 turret mounted on a merkava mark 4

Its still a t72 and even an upgraded one isnt going to cut it compared to the gulfies leclercs,leopards and abrams.To face these iran needs the most modern main battle tanks it can get its hands on,not just a t72 hull with a t90sm look a like turret fitted.

well we have to start somewhere , we can export these to the khamaz and khizballa and see how they fait against the israeli merkava

those tanks you mentioned in a case any persian gulf war can easily fall into the hands of shia fighters to the country they belong or they will be wiped out in the first wave of missile barrage

haha , you mean sunni fighters , shia's are on iran's side

Any information on the engine?

@SOHEIL @Arminkh @Zarvan

the engine is imported from russia

Can u handle arabian gulf (gcc) air force
I don't think you can do any thing to them

FIGHTER JET
IRAN : 201
GCC : 790

Source: https://defence.pk/threads/gcc-vs-iran.459393/#ixzz4QPdBCoQ2

iran : 10000+ irbm missiles
arabia : a couple of scuds at best

Come on, you guys aren't serious? The GCC have the:
MIM-104 Patriot
THAAD
NASAMS
Aster
Aspide
Crotale
MICA
RIM-116
MEADS
And have been offered the S-300/400 on several occasions.

still not enough to stop a barrage of iranian shahab , sejjil , and or emad , the lattest being designed to counter manuever ABM systems.

Those are the best air defence/anti-missile systems on EARTH!
(PAC-3 of the MIM-104 Patriot is one of the latest variants for example)

The israeli iron dome was said to be the best in the world too , but it couldn't stop hamas' fertilizer rockets from landing on Ben Gurien airport in tel aviv

These are the most advanced and latest air defence/anti missile systems built by the west and you're telling me their objectives are to intercept Soviet era Scud Missiles?


Iran does have S-300 and Buk missile systems, though the GCC pretty much have every advanced air defence system built by the US and Western Europe.

Iran also has the Tor system

cant saudis and other GCC members use highways and moterways for landing and fueling to avoid Iranian ballistic missile attacks on air bases?

There were highways in iraq too , but they turned to be "death highways"

agree here but Iranian also cliam they have thousands of ballistic and cruise missiles which can overwhelm air defences of any regional country , in case if needed can GCC turn their highways and motarways into full fledge bases? I think if not then they should look into this option..

iran will not target what they have their ABM's around instead iran will target their refinaries in east arabia which is shia , jerusalem , tel aviv and so forth ..
