The idea at the least is cost efficient and greatly reduces the ROI.

But in the USA the military complex and industry would never allow it. We use $700k disposables to $23m models.

#5 Weight a ton?. Come on man you can do better than that. Disposable I suppose. What! leave it. Play nice so they can reverse engineer. I wonder if Milley made another call.

#6 ref #4, it almost seems like someone saw that rerun and decided it would be a great way to protect other means still traceable inside Iran. Otherwise, why reveal a technique with future application?
What I found far more interesting was the trigger for a long planned OP being the likely loss by Trump and the conviction that the Obama/ValJar Presidium would have immense power in the future Biden Administration. That fits exactly with my sense of how Israel sees US policy as feckless going forward, even more than in years past.

#7 One of these days Israeli and American civilians are going to start getting murdered like this and you guys will call it terrorism.

That's exactly what it is and Israel's PM at the time deserves to be executed for this act.

#11 "It keel us, and then it explode!" or, Reverse Engineering

A blessing by Allah bestowed
Was that wreck by the side of the road,
So we hauled it away
And, by Allah, today
Were bombarded my lab and abode!
And as I've told you a dozen times, it was only by the mercy of Allah that I was late getting home from the wedding chapel. Aieeeeee.
