Iran has Diego Garcia in range. 2,360 miles.

One of the missiles failed in flight, while the other was intercepted by a US warship.

" -- it marks the first time intermediate-range missiles have been deployed in the conflict - ones that can cover far greater distances than Iranian weapons were previously known to be capable of --".

The hood is rusting along the seam again. I have already tackled this unsuccessfully twice in 28 years. Once by sandblasting and spraying, once by dipping, treating with Fertran, and spraying. Is there a better method? Would it help if I glued the hood sections instead of spot welding them?

True Arie but this and the last gov't didn't keep the North Sea supplies to the uk on tap. It will take a while to bring them back online. Plus tge current mob are hell bent on net zero.

Bill, Trev. Yep. Formidable task now. So accept defeat? Do nothing, and eventually have to submit to Iran's future demands? They are already demanding war reparations.

And don't think the IRGC ar...

Wow Rocky

Perfect answer....I hadn't thought to check from the frame up. It's a great web site.

Why not buy Northsea oil from Scotland and Norway while the war in Iran is going on?
No ships in danger , less travel so more enviromentaly friendly and funding our direct neighbours which always comes back in some ammount tou your economy.

As Bill says they are spread far and wide and to eradicate the regime will require significant numbers of boots on the ground for a good while. If there is one thing that we should have learnt from past incursions it is that air power alone will not defeat them and if you start the job you need to stay and finish it. I dont think the western world has the stomach for that though.

Forgetting TDS for a minute...

The IRGC command is spread throughout Iran, 31 provinces. Similarly, munitions are spread throughout the country. The mullahs are the theocracy but my understanding is that IRGC commanders can and will act alone. To disable Iran militarily you would surely have to disable all of the firepower including its production. Even then there may well be sympathet...

From my understanding Nat's only drops slowly as the engine spins down "It seemed like the Rev reading decreased in line with the engine slowing as it lost power"

Tach suddenly dropping to zero while the engine is still spinning down, or bouncing with a misfire, does indicate an ignition LT problem including the ignition module wires.

Incidentally those 'under the cap' modules st...

Forget the TDS.

That's not starting where we are now.

Where we are now, is with an enraged, badly wounded, but not defeated, extreme theocratical regime hell bent on revenge.

Anyone who beieves they weren't attempting, and getting ever closer to building a nuclear weapon is living in a fantasy world; the same world inhabited by those who said North Korea wasn't trying to...

Good call Rocky and thank you for the link to Doug Pelton's business.

Ed- you should not need the rear brass shell possibly but as I have never had the opportunity to examine a Y/T EX(U) I cannot be certain. Please let me know how it works out for future questions.

Thank you
