So Iran slammed missiles into Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia, missiles and drones. Most of them got shot down, but it said they used cluster missiles to get through some of the defenses. Those are cluster warheads that open up
and create multiple warheads, making it a more complex targeting situation for the actual missiles that go up and strike down the incoming ballistic missiles. Looks like 10 to 12 US troops were wounded too seriously and potentially KC-135 tankers damaged but the defenses held and operations continue at the base.
Likely what we'll see now is a stepped up regiment of strikes from F-35s, F-16s, also reinforcements are coming into the area. The 82nd Airborne and the Marine Expeditionary Unit, Iran is obviously calling this a big win but their capabilities are systematically getting taken apart by the day and America's air capabilities are systematically getting taken apart by the day and America's air power isn't backing down.
