As of 1 Oct 2024, Iran is elevated to Level 1 - Do Not Fly, based on the current risk related to the Israeli conflict. so no new NOTAM
Thoughts if this is a shaping attack (more to come) or just simple retaliatory strike for the missles (i.e. here's some harm for daring to attack)?
Neither Iran nor Israel is very forth coming about battle damage . Do you see an honest BDA being available in the days to come?
Really appreciate your work, Ryan!
I have read a lot of articles about Israel striking Iran, but not anything about how. There are one or two countries between Israel and Iran.
Ryan, Do you think the US helped with logistics like loaning IDF Air Force a couple of their tankers to fuel the jets?
I don’t think we did that. It is certainly within our capabilities, but we will know in the coming days.
