detected, the Iranians will launch and their missiles will be moving at almost ten times the speed of the enemy.

‼️ It seems few people have stopped to consider the reality and implications that
Mach 7+ missiles are able to get places a whole lot faster than Mach .7 Tomahawk
cruise missiles and F-15s / F-35s at Mach .9 weapons-laden cruising speeds.

But I'm sure Iran has done the math.

To me, the key indicator - beginning in the first hours of conflict - will be
the degree to which US/Israeli targets are getting hit.

Iran will be able to almost immediately detect US aircraft and Tomahawk launches
-- and, depending on where in Iran is being targeted, from launch to strike will
take anywhere from 30 minutes to 3+ hours.

Iranian SRBMs can hit US bases in the region within 5-7 minutes.

Therefore, Iran can very conceivably achieve multiple significant strikes
against US targets long before US munitions hit any targets in Iran.
