7. I think Iran is cooked. Qatar intercept rate is 96%. Similar for other nations.

Iran has lost 3/4 of their launchers. They have fired and lost a large portion of their ballistic inventory. The US is tactically destroying launchers so that inventory is irrelevant. The rate of fire yesterday was down 86%.

The US has a good inventory of interceptors for larger missiles, but it becomes irrelevant now for drones. The US has and is deploying our own low cost and more effective systems for that like the C-Ram( large caliber Gatling gun computer controlled) and small scale interceptor weapons like the coyote for drones.

Iran is not likely waiting for anything. They are losing their ability to fight back. Iran has no defense at this point. They will continue to lose their arsenal to attacks. Lose their infrastructure to attacks. The surrounding countries are adjusting and adding to their defense.

It’s not likely to get any better for Iran than how it performed the day before.
