@@زهراعرب-ف6ت yep seems like a mission it would be good for. Even when it was built it was never intended to be a dog fighter. It was meant to be a big fast interceptor with a lot of freaking missles because the US DOD foolishly thought dogfighting was dead and their only purpose was going to be to intercept Soviet Bombers which is why it struggled with Mig 17s early on. It was only after tactics were completely changed and US fighter pilots learned how to use its speed and ceiling advantage over the migs that it became a formidable dog fighter for the time.

[@johnbuckles1344]

Late in WWII Europe the Germans had commenced with the construction of truly enormous undergrounded bunkers. One, named I believe Weingut, and another, Walnus, were intended as Me262 construction factories and operational air bases. Their construction went unnoticed throughout the war, they were only found after the surrender by technical intelligence teams on the ground. From the air they were concealed by a literal forest of planted trees and landscaping. There are photos, worth a look. The difference with the Iranians is desert areas are not so easy to conceal activity of this nature. Cheers

[@Nibiru420]

@@johnbuckles1344 Also we have satellites that can read a license plate from space, and a lot of them. So To build something that massive underground would need some serious equipment moved around. I'm almost positive we have 100s of ppl watching 100s of satellites 24 hours a day looking at Iran, China, Russia etc. I can't say for sure we know where this bunker is but I'm almost certain we do.

[@johnbuckles1344]

@@Nibiru420 All quite true, ever since the Corona sats went up we have had impressive imagery from orbit. My post was regarding the WWII bunkers the Nazis were building. These enormous complexes were designed to be both assembly plants and underground airbases with hidden runways, all underground. Allied recce aircraft never located these massive bunkers, it was only when the technical intel guys on the ground ran into them. They still exist, NATO uses one for storage of medical supplies, among other things. Just google "Walnuss" or "Weingut" and you should find them. Also, any decent history of the Me-262 will have a discussion and photos of these sites. Currently, I don't think we have more than 2 or 3 KH generation sats in orbit, they are incredibly expensive to build and launch, they are the size of a city bus. But there is also a lot of private commercial imagery out there, much of it far superior to the imagery of the 60's and 70's. Also in use are ferret satellites, smaller units that can drop down to much, much lower orbits to obtain detailed imagery. These are more or less disposable units, once they use up their onboard fuel reserves they drop and burn up.

Maybe the only thing Iran has to worry about is the opening of its underground fighter base. If the opening is bombed beyond any short-term repair what happens then with fighter jets and aerial drones trapped inside?

Very pretty targets.
