The probability of an exchange of blows increased. The role of the air base, "Prince Sultan" in the preparation of aggression against Iran

It is extremely worrying tendency to exacerbate operational-strategic situation can be traced today in the Persian Gulf, where members of a secret anti-Iranian political-military alliance of US defense department, Great Britain, Israel, as well as the countries of the "Arabian coalition" have begun the final stage of elaboration of the two variants military operations against the Islamic Republic of Iran. The first involves the blocking of Iranian seaports, and therefore, and the export of Iranian oil to the final inflation in world prices for "black gold" to an unprecedented level. The second - the establishment of a comprehensive military and political domination of the Near Eastern region, achievement of which can be realized only by applying a massive missile attack on military and industrial infrastructure IRI.

The probability of an exchange of blows increased. The role of the air base «prince Sultan» in the preparation of aggression against Iran

A quick recovery of the air base, "Prince Sultan" - one of the key features of the preparation of the Pentagon to the implementation of the strategic air and space offensive against Iran

If these "shadow" goal first option of military action were promptly disclosed and made public by leading analytical agencies in connection with the, that it was mismanaged and "crooked" camouflaged military-diplomatic source in the US Central Command (USCENTCOM) under the "safety of navigation in the Persian Gulf" under the "Guardian" operation, signs of active study of the second variant of the military action, providing for the sudden onset of a strategic aerospace operation against Iran, much more carefully concealed by the Pentagon and USCENTCOM and accessible only to the trained eye of a military expert.

We are talking about a very unusual location of the airbase, "Prince Sultan", selected Central Command and the Armed Forces Command of the US Air Force as, At first, place additional US troops deployment of about 500 military, Secondly, airfields (operational airfield) for multipurpose fighter of the 5th generation F-22A «Raptor», third, position for deployment SAM «Patriot PAC-3" in an amount of one or more divisions. Currently urgently carried out the renovation of paintings airbase runway strip, as well as taxiways and hangar infrastructure strategically important facility.

This raises a logical question: What range of tactical advantages (with respect to conduct shirokospektralnyh air operations against Iran) It has retracted airbase "Prince Sultan" before the same AVB "El Udeid" Qatar or "Isa" Bahrain? It is well known, that the latter is only a few kilometers from the Gulf waters (in 250-270 km from the Iranian provinces of Fars and Harmozgan) and provide tactical aircraft the US Air Force and ODBC "Arabian coalition" a much greater level of efficiency, than APS, "Prince Sultan", Remote from the most active portion of the HPT at 750-850 km podlotnoe time and providing the same "Raptor" at least 35-50 minutes in the case of supersonic or transonic cruise flight speed data fighters.

The answer to the above question lies in the number and the technical parameters of tactical ballistic missiles family «Fateh-110/313", «Hormuz-2» и «Zolfaghar», and medium range ballistic missiles «Shahab-3B / M» and «Qadr-H / F», the armament missile units of the Revolutionary Guards, and always ready to use within the framework of retaliation in the event of aggression by the US and their henchmen of Near. Number of the above types may be thousands TRUNC, while the number of mobile UE can reach 400 and more units.

Even one such volley several hundred "Fateh" and "Hormuz" (despite the absence of a part of their avionics proper means to overcome missile defense systems) It may be sufficient to glut target channel 5-7 CICS "Aegis", placed in an appropriate amount destroyers classes «Arleigh Burke Flight I / II / IIA / III» providing illumination and / targeting ranged ZUR interceptors SM-2ER Block IV and SM-6, and a half-dozen two divisions «Patriot PAC-3 ', forming the "anti-missile umbrella" over the air bases "Al Dafra", "Al-Udeid" and "Isa". As a result, 25-40% of Iranian TRUNC still break through the vaunted US "missile shield" over the bay, causing considerable damage to the runway data "air harbor" of the US Air Force.

Minus a million workers. Economically passive Russia

Another thing - remote airbase "Prince Sultan", located outside the 300-kilometer range of the most numerous TRUNC «Fateh-110» and «Hormuz-2". According to the present object IRIS can work exclusively mrbm «Shahab-3B / M» and «Qadr-H / F», the number of mine and moving ground launchers that were between 70 to 120 meals. A volley hundred such MRBM can easily be "docked" through coordinated operation centric pair of three destroyers URO "Arley Burke", possessing ekzoatmosfernymi interceptors RIM-161B (SM-3 Block IA) and receiving "early target information" about missiles approaching, for example, from the level of the 5th fighter F-35I «Adir» Israeli Air Force, equipped with optoelectronic complexes c distributed aperture AN / AAQ-37 DAS (operating in the wavelength range of the IR-capable and pelengovat MRBM engine torch at a distance of the order of 1200-1300 km).

Break through the same through the "barrier" of the Persian Gulf ballistic missiles can be automatically taken to support and "captured" multifunctional AESA-radar AN / TPY-2 GBR, dowry missile complex THAAD, put the UAE Armed Forces in the summer 2016 year in the amount of two batteries. After this pretty "depleted" in a collision with the SM-3 IRBM Iranian outfit can be completely eliminated ekzoatmosfernymi interceptor missiles THAAD, running with PU, located either in the UAE, either in Saudi Arabia (on its way to the air base, "Prince Sultan"). In this way, To date, this air base is probably the most protected reserve US Air Force "air harbor" in the event of a possible exchange of missile strikes between the US Navy, "Arabian coalition" and the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps.

Last Tehran's trump card

Nevertheless, Tehran may still oppose these tactics of US Central Command quite a significant trump card, comprising the application of tactical long range cruise missiles (1350 km) «Hoveyzeh», sverhnizkovysotnym filter having a profile in the range of 25 to 50 m. A recent incident with a successful air raid husitskih drones suicide on Arabian ZRDN «Patriot PAC-3 ', family radar illumination AN / MPQ-53/65 have extremely low potential tracking and "capture" low-altitude targets (less 30 m) due to the limitations of the lower limit of elevation FOV 1 degree, and unable to carry out all-aspect reflection even limited missile attack without targeting interceptors MIM-104F PAC-3MSE side planes AWACS E-3A / C / D, and other radar reconnaissance.

Conclusion: load computing means aircraft radar AN / APY-2/9 AWACS system thousands UAV, tactical missiles and other IOS, which will be located in the sky over the Persian Gulf in the event of an escalation of a large-scale conflict,, will open up a missile brigade of the IRGC a certain "window of opportunity" for the success of cruise missiles «Hoveyzeh» against the "Patriot", AVB cover up, "Prince Sultan".
