The Jerusalem Post reports two Israeli Air Force (IAF) F-35 Adir fighter jets entered Iranian airspace undetected, according to the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida.
“Two Israeli F-35 fighter jets entered Iranian airspace over the past month, Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida reported on Thursday. The act is a signal of heightened regional tensions, especially in light of recent Israeli military attacks in Syria, including against Iranian bases in the country. Sources quoted in Al-Jarida stated that two stealth fighters flew over Syrian and Iraqi airspace to reach Iran, and even targeted locations in the Iranian cities Bandar Abbas, Esfahan and Shiraz.”
The report further states that the two fighter jets, among the most advanced in the world, circled at high altitude above Persian Gulf sites suspected of being linked with the Iranian nuclear program. It also states that the two jets were undetected by radar, including by the advanced Russian radar system located in Syria.
A not-so-subtle warning to the Mad Mullahs and their vision of an Iran led Middle East. I believe the message was received, and opened a few (Russian) eyes too.

Nice! How do you say “Fuck you, dude!” in Hebrew?
Something like “לך תזדיין, חבוב!” according to Google Translate.
We simply say “NEVER AGAIN”. Anyone who has fucked with the State of Israel knows understands what that means.
True, Israel has gracefully kicked the shit, piss and snot out of everyone who has ever messed with them.
And when Israel didn’t, Almighty God did! They are his chosen people and the muslim scum are to stupid to get the message….BUT THEY WILL!!
And it won’t be pretty. The prophets are clear on that.
How?

Okay, now, I’m giggling.
Okay, this is way too cool…BUT, WHY IN THE HELL WOULD YOU REVEAL IT????
Might be some strategic messaging from the Israelis.
Letting the Iranians (and others) know that the Israelis can bring the ‘good news’ at the time and place of their choosing, and there’s not a damn thing that the Iranians can do about it.
The answer is that a message was being sent by Israel. Translated, the message reads, “Hey, Iran. We were over your land and you didn’t know we were. We’re telling you now as a warning. Next time, we may come in force, fully armed on our way there and unarmed on our way back. Think we’re bluffing? Think harder.”
Same thought. Different words, Mick.
I think that I would have taken photos and just emailed them to the Grand Iatollah with the message “enjoy seeing them while you can.”
They probably did, several weeks ago. 🙂
Oh, great. Now the mad mullahs are going to claim the entire country of Kuwait is a Mossad agent.
BZ IAF! I love it when the Israelis are let out of their cage.
I’m sure these “protests” by the Palestinians is going to result in some action as well. Probably why they let it known to Iran that they can hit them any time, anywhere without warning.
Long live the memory of Rachel “Pancake” Corrie! 15 years ago this month she went one on one with an Israeli bulldozer. Hence the nickname.
Ah, yes, Saint Pancake. I had to look it up, but I was pretty sure she had gone to Evergreen State College. So now I’m wondering if Evergreen makes you nuts or you have to be nuts to go there in the first place.
After all the angst, chest thumping-finger jabbing, eye watering over-costs, and schedule delays, the F-35 is coming into it’s own. I knew it would, as I work Navy flight test, and know every new platform has warts and hairs and teething problems. It’s my job to identify those, document them and test the fix. A certain aircraft company who’s name begins with a “B” doesn’t like me any more.
The F-35 had a rocky start, but from my sources the thing is now a game changer, and will dominate the sky for a very long time.
The fooker is LOUD, too.

The US Air Force
Turning fuel into freedom noise since 1947.
Watching the Marine -35B was a hoot- it would putt around at about 1000 feet and 30 knots or so, and the F/A-18 chase bird would be race-tracking around it, ’cause it couldn’t go that slow!
100 percent mission ready, unless you need to shoot the gun at something.
Details, details. 8 – )
Is that the plane Will Smith flew in “Independence Day”?
He “flew” an F/A-18 Hornet.
Dos Gringos say:
“I wish I had the alpha of a Hornet,
Living to fight slow, when others scorn it.
When I can still pitch and roll,
That other guy’s going out of control!
I wish I had the alpha of a Hornet.”
AW1Ed. Personal to You. I was stationed @ PAX 66-69 @ WST. ADJ2. Place has changed since then.
Nice to hear from a former Pax River Sailor, C. The place is unrecognizable even in the relatively short time I’ve been here.
So…. the Russkies didn’t see this one coming, eh? Well, ain’t that a kick in the pants!
Despite press releases to the contrary, neither Russia nor China has yet fielded a 5th-generation fighter yet. Right now the USAF has an incomparable edge with the F-22.
Oh, hold on, those were F-35s!!? I was told the Lightning II was a POS… Go figure…
Tuffski SHitski for the Russkie radar, eh?
Sounds like they can bring the hurt whenever the need arises.
Fake news.
Unless you get your secret jew military intel from Kuwaiti news papers….
Thank you for your thoughtful input, FC. Care to post up a link with the fake news “…secret jew military intel from Kuwaiti…” sources?
Chag Sameach, Israel. This mission was a full success, and will be discussed long and loud at the Tehran Downdown Mosque this weekend.
MAZEL TOV to the Israelis, a great way to say “KUTOMBA WEWE, you won’t know we’re over your turf until shit starts going *KA-BOOM!*.”.
Wait a minute, various web sites have been touting the S-400/SA-21 Growler missile system which could shoot anything out of the sky, anywhere without even waking up the operators. Now, we find out that maybe that just isn’t so? Or, maybe the Iranian operators were sleeping? Or, they forgot to plug the thing into the outlet?
I wonder if the Mullahs will ask for their money back? I wonder what Saudi Arabia,India and Turkey think about their commitment to the S-400?
I recall a story, probably apocryphal:
During the six day war, as Israel turned the collective Arab air forces into expensive rubble, and their planes thus were wreaking havoc on the Arab ground forces, one of the Arab leaders sent a terse message to the Russians:
Cease shipment of Surface-to-Air missiles. Send immediately Srface-to-Aircraft missiles.
…
That’s gotta hurt.
BwaHaHaHaHaHa…
What are they going to do? Bomb a nuclear plant? Won’t that cause uranium and plutonium to get into the atmosphere and blow around the globe?
If the facility is a bunker, and you collapse the bunker, most of the mess is contained.
Certainly less mess than a full-up nuclear detonation as a nuked city.
And -command- bunker hits are -far- less messy.
“What are they going to do? Bomb a nuclear plant?”
Believe the Israelis have already captured that data point.
Twice.
Good show on Netflix: FAUDA. 12 episodes. Israeli anti-terrorism fiction. No boobs though.
Imagine that.
