Quite a severe step-up if they believe their missiles can reach 4000km, far greater danger for Europe to get involved at all, EU nations need to tell any fat paedophiles fight their own battles.

This suggests that Iran possesses missiles with a range of about 4000 kilometers which is farther than what has been publicly stated

“Iran targeted Diego Garcia base with ballistic missiles – WSJ
Iran launched ballistic missiles at the Diego Garcia military base in the Indian Ocean, The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday. The report says one missile failed in flight and another was intercepted by a US SM‑3 system, with neither striking the base.
Diego Garcia, a key US‑UK joint military hub in the Indian Ocean, hosts bombers, naval assets and other long‑range strike capabilities.” (Iran International).

Didn’t Iran had been wiped out of having capabilities like this, based on what Trump said. Felt like everyone got baited so hard at this point. 2.5k miles, wow.

Iran revealing a 4,000 kilometer missile range just to miss a coral atoll is a massive strategic blunder that effectively hands the United States a reason for total escalation. with the regime already falling apart from internal assassinations, this feels less like a show of strength and more like desperation

I’m not the least bit surprised they would lie about the true range of their missiles, if this turns out to be true then London, Madrid, Berlin, Warsaw, Kyiv, and New Delhi are all in strike range.

So the U.S. is right about Iran’s missile capability and intentions, or did Iran get ahold of a Russian or Chinese system recently for conventional use?

Trump has really been giving the US a lesson in geography.

It’s not news that Iran has a sophisticated ballistics program. It’s why we’ve been trying to shut it down for a long time, but it is certainly worrying that they are capable of nearly a 3800km range when London is even less than that. What happened to Trumps comment that we’ve already decimated their capabilities? Seems like they still have plenty.

I was reading the wiki for Diego Garcia and this stuck out to me:
“Following the fall of the Shah of Iran and the Iran Hostage Crisis in 1979–1980, the West became concerned with ensuring the flow of oil from the Persian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz, and the United States received permission for a $400-million expansion of the military facilities on Diego Garcia consisting of two parallel 12,000-foot-long (3,700 m) runways, expansive parking aprons for heavy bombers, 20 new anchorages in the lagoon, a deep-water pier, port facilities for the largest naval vessels in the U.S. and British fleets, aircraft hangars, maintenance buildings and an air terminal, a 1,340,000 barrels (213,000 m3) fuel storage area, and billeting and messing facilities for thousands of sailors and support personnel.”
Seems a bit symbolic as well after reading that.

So….
This means that Iran could make a nuclear dirty bomb (even if it doesn’t have a fission weapon), pop it on a missile, and Europe would be in range.

My dumbass thought Iran fired missiles towards one person named Diego Garcia.

It’s almost like Iran is smarter and more advanced than our security of defense who is a drunk and former Fox News host.

After i’ve read the entire article. It can only mean one thing.
The United States of America and Israel have grossly underestimated the Islamic Republic of Iran’s ballistic missile capabilities.
It means that a good part of the Balkan Peninsula might be in range of Iran’s ballistic missiles.
United States of America, with the leadership of Donald Trump and his American administration of liars and madman, have screwed up big time.
Thank you for nothing Donald Trump.
Sincerely, a Serbian citizen.

That is a statement.
I don’t expect iran to back down, neither do I expect “the general american” understands the can of worms they have opened.

Well if Trump decimated 90 percent of their launchers then they must have had thousands because it seems they still have plenty left
