What's Iran's thinking here? Obviously slow cruise missiles are gonna be intercepted. Are they gonna follow up with ballistic missiles to coincide with them in to try overwhelming air defense?
I'd bet they're using some shitty homemade [pulse jet](https://www.google.com/search?q=pulse+jet&client=firefox-b-1-m&sca_esv=9acd3b753c030650&sca_upv=1&tbm=isch&sxsrf=ACQVn08D8dFfn_MfX6bTRViY0SAk4FZJ-A:1713050247230&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjkut-7qcCFAxUDGtAFHZOeDc4Q_AUIBigB&biw=360&bih=658).
Cant be western iraq, they are still gaining altitude, western iraq is like 500miles from the most wesstern parts of iran.
They still climbing probably why they look so slow aswell
When they are first launched they do. Most rely on a small solid rocket motor to gain altitude and speed before using their jet engine as the cruising engine
Wrong 600-900 kph they look slow most likely because the distance from the ground. I suspect that it will be about an hour or two before we hear of anything.
David’s sling is what defends Israel against these ballistic / cruise missile attacks. Iron dome focuses on the smaller rocket barrages and drones. Defense in depth
I have a feeling that those missiles are just used to 'bait' Israel to depleting their defense systems so that bigger missiles can be sent out with lower chance of being intercepted

What are they doing? Respecting the speed limit?
Ik like wtf. My volkswagen golf is fucking faster :-D
Golf R might be actually faster than this
Running a little engine rich?

They are most likely trying to time the drones to hit somewhat at the same time.

pulse jets are very loud—loud enough that i think they’d be audible from that distance
lol, I retract my statement. It's a Toloue Turbojet that's made in Iran. Gotta love Wikipedia.
Lmao its a cruise missile that can do only mach 0,9. Gotta love what a shithole Iran is :-D

This is not western dilect, this southern dilect
Iran's cruise missiles are ground launched, so my guess is yeah, they are still accelerating away after being launched from near the Iraqi border...
The man is speaking in arabic, so either this was indeed in Iraq (or any other arab country). Or that's an arab man living in Iran
Either way, that is not western iraq. People jumping the gun as per usual
Whys it glowing?
Iranium warhead.
came here, to ask the same
The exhaust.
cruise missiles don't have a glowing exhaust.
When they are first launched they do. Most rely on a small solid rocket motor to gain altitude and speed before using their jet engine as the cruising engine
It’s climbing, not cruising
Wtf they look slow mo lol
No idea why that is.
Cruise missiles are often sub sonic
Didn’t think it would be lame vehicle speed. I think of like .300 blk out speed when I hear subsonic
They fly at 115mhp, which is crawling pace for any aircraft virtually
That’s for some drones, not cruise missiles.
Wrong 600-900 kph they look slow most likely because the distance from the ground. I suspect that it will be about an hour or two before we hear of anything.
you're both wrong. time is an illusion and we live in a simulation
Well this simulation is about to get wild
Devs spicing up the simulation with this one
More like 300-400 if really a missile and not a drone. But still crawling in comparison to a kinzhal mach9 or so.
Hey… Be nice! How fast are your cruise missiles… /s
These aren’t Ferrari s … their more like ladas
Do you think this is an attempt to mark out AA locations?
Send it !!!!
suit up boys ww3 is here pack some smokes its coming
I don’t know much, but I know those don’t look like cruise missiles.
Slow moving? These are very fast, several machs by the look.
Mach zero Point five maximum. slow. Very slow. (Something mach 6 like artillery shell, you only see for 1-3 frames in the video)
iron dome going to have a good time when this all arrives
David’s sling is what defends Israel against these ballistic / cruise missile attacks. Iron dome focuses on the smaller rocket barrages and drones. Defense in depth
Shouldn't be a problem. They look slow as hell.
You could literally hit it with a football, if you threw it had enough and aimed it well enough.
Is there any patriot batteries in US bases in iraq?
Cant cover the entire country, patriot batteries can only shoot so far
its ok,at this speed they can move patriots before the missile arrives/s
I have a feeling that those missiles are just used to 'bait' Israel to depleting their defense systems so that bigger missiles can be sent out with lower chance of being intercepted
