Man, I would really love to see some critical damage to imperial assets. Sinking a carrier would be incredibly symbolic, obviously.

yeah it's a pretty basic strategy, and was effective in the 12 day war. The only only thing that can stop the effectiveness of phase 3 is the enemy striking launch sites/vehicles and production facilities. Unfortunately, Iran's weakness is its air force and air defense. Let's hope the rumours that Russia-China has been helping strengthen Irans air defense are true.

it is gonna get worse for west. previously, iran was not targetting air defence units in comparador countries but right now they have already destroyed some expensive radars
