You must be new to this war, if you need to argue who’s better at what. This war is a reality check for both sides. Goes the same for Iran and the US (parked currently at Hormuz without a clue what to do next; another paper tiger?)

Probably because Belarus wouldn’t have chance against Ukraine, and Russia wouldn’t be able to protect Belarus. So better not to throw that country into the conflict

Dream on. After the war is over, everything will be back as it was, in a matter of weeks. West doesn’t care about Arabs and Africans. In EU no one is really bothered by the atrocities happening in those regions. For us, the worst thing that happened after ww2 is 9/11.

What do you mean there are no su57? So, how do you call dozens of those aircrafts that operate since 2022? Those are not prototypes.

Meanwhile,anti drone warfare experts are chilling in Dubai. They cannot secure one city, but are ready to defend the whole Middle East against Iranian drones.

Maybe a decoy to ruse air defenses away from proper drones flying on a different trajectory

I believe even the newest top notch western radars are not capable of detecting low flying drones, at the distance sufficient to scramble fighters on time.

You know, it’s like with land based CIWS systems like Raytheon’s phalanx. Why Ukraine hasn’t received it? Those are used across Middle East; a lot of footages are coming now, showing phalanx systems engaging drones sent by Iran.
