Financial Times Highlights Military Hurdles Facing Donald Trump Threats Against Iran
According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, the Financial Times has indicated that translating Donald Trump‘s threats to deploy the Massive Ordnance Air Blast weapon against Iran into action encounters serious military roadblocks. The analysis notes that this heavy munition is transported via C-130 aircraft, which lack high speed, rendering their movement toward Iranian airspace fraught with substantial risks.
In a related assessment, Joseph Votel, the former commander of the United States Central Command, acknowledged that overthrowing the ruling political structure in Iran through military strikes remains unfeasible. Concurrently, Jonathan Schanzer, a researcher at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, stated that Iran’s political establishment has consistently demonstrated extensive capability and endurance in withstanding economic and military pressures.
Furthermore, Mark Cancian, a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, pointed out that replenishing the military equipment and munitions consumed by the United States armed forces, including Tomahawk cruise missiles, would require anywhere from one to five years.
