Can they get close enough with those to launch missiles toward Iranian targets, instead of sending the air force?

#5  Thanks, Eric. I suspect no Israelis will be awarded an Order by the Brits any time soon.

Or Order of the British Empire. I'm never sure.

#1  If the Dolphins come with the modified torpedo tubes, then the Israelis can launch their cruise missiles from about 100 miles out at sea at Iran. The frigates are too much of a visible target for standoff attacks, while the subs can sneak and shoot.
