Hacker News用户正在讨论未经宣布的B-2幽灵战略轰炸机部署到迪戈加西亚岛的消息。最初的猜测集中在可能对也门的袭击,但一些用户指出,由于胡塞武装的防空力量有限,使用B-2轰炸机属于杀鸡用牛刀。随后,讨论转向了伊朗可能是目标的可能性,原因是伊朗在低频雷达和关键设施周围密集的防空系统上的投资。几位评论员指出,此次部署可能是为了向伊朗施压进行谈判,或者为如果外交失败而采取军事行动做准备。一些人对紧张局势升级表示担忧,而另一些人则认为,对伊朗进行有限打击以遏制其对恐怖主义的支持不一定会导致全球战争。另一位用户强调了《政治报》的一篇文章,文章内容是特朗普为了回应胡塞武装而向中东派遣第二艘航空母舰。

i don't see any war plans there just some flights schedule.


stand back and stand by


Destination Yemen I suppose.


The article discusses that B-2s would be overkill, since the Houthis have no relevant air-defense. It speculates about Iran instead.


Iran has been investing in low-frequency radars that are better at detecting stealth aircraft. Aldo the areas around Tehran and key nuclear facilities (like Fordow or Natanz) have particularly dense air defense coverage. Iran also has a good number of S-300/Bavar launchers which can saturate the air space when radar is ineffective. Not to mention that they have an untouched air force (though they are probably not in the best shape).


Likely for Iran, they're overkill for Yemen. Hopefully it's just to put pressure on them for the negotiations. But I expect it's also to be ready if diplomacy fails.


Great. Let's end the war in Ukraine and start WW3 with Iran.


There's a huge middle ground between WW3 and allowing Iran to fund and coordinate terrorism.

A strike on them to correct their malicious behavior is far away from a global war.



On the other hand, hardware wants to be used.

Also, an attack in Yemen is a message to Iran.

B-2s come in after threatening air defense is destroyed.

In this case, they can just roll right in.

Whether they are stealth or not, they are B-2 bombers, their purpose is to bomb.

Whatever can drop the payload. The more the merrier.

All that and the fact that we know that B2 stealth bombers have already been used against Yemen.

Article author doesn't seem to be well-informed of this making that statement.



Hopefully Iran


Err—"hopefully"?


Yes.
