This video explores the options of US military might against Iran. Not just the aerial campaign but a full scale ground invasion. A US led coalition of countries is modeled, but video also goes into the option of US going solo, if needed.

First, let me thank you so much for the big effort you are attempting to put every video you issue.
Second, I wanted to give you a proposal for your next video. In fact, I have given this proposal also in the comments of your last two videos. Fortunately, a lot of people interacted with this suggestion. The proposal is to make a video about a hypothetical war between Egypt and Turkey. Both countries are competing immeasurably a lot; politically, economically, and militarily. Both are competing over political presence in Mideastern countries, such as Libya, Sudan, the Gulf (the Qatari crisis), as well as Syria. In addition to all this, they are competing militarily in the Mediterranean for discoveries of oil and gas fields. Additionally, despite Turkey’s membership in the NATO; however, Egypt’s military power is rivaling the Turkish one. And if we take Turkey’s NATO-membership into consideration, then we should also take Cyprus and Greece, who are also members in the NATO and the European Union 🇪🇺, that have a lot of alliances with Egypt also into consideration.
Thank you a lot for your hard work, again.

yes, the majority of Iranian people dislike the government but a war like this would unite the people against a common enemy and solidify the governments control just like the war in the 80s against Iraq.
Do you dislike the government or having a supreme leader or what is it exactly?
@@ahmadjaber3611 to be honest I don't dislike the government but I do believe that state and religion should be separate and the country needs to free up a little. which in my opinion will happened gradually and eventially
As a Turkish person i believe Turkey and Russia will send military equipment, militia, volunteers, food, medical supplies etc. US can't do that mistake. Even if they gather 1 million soldiers, when Iran call it's people to fight against Americans :D and then it will be the huge nightmare for americans and saudis. Also if you watch the videos of saudi army which tries to invade yemen, you'll see how those idiots movin like :D in a war situation, Turks will support Iran. I'm pretty sure about this.
Burak Yay şu aptal ABDlilere karşı çıkan tek milletler bi biz İranlılar bide siz Türkler, umarım herkes karşı çıkarda şu aptallara bir yerleri kalkmaz, adamlar 200 yıllık bir ülke, milleti bile yok, ama gelip 4000 yıllık İranı yok etmeyi planlıyorlar, artık Tanrı neden böyle şeylere izin veriyorsa
So what’s to say they wouldn’t help support a regime change? Trump has made it clear to Iran that he and the US have no ill will for Iran’s people. Only the government that oppresses them. Those massive protests weren’t for nothing.

He said: " Thank you for not downing the plane with 38 U.S intelligence officers aboard ". I wont go on about almost daily attacks to the U.S embassy and personals and assets in Iraq because it will make you cry.
Fortunately there is a way out of this self occurred disaster for the U.S and that is to leave our neighbourhood and the chances are that Iranians will be kind enough and let you leave without causing you any more harm.

Not true. My nonsense is well-informed. :o)

Iran could use its ballistic missiles to target gulf state cities and oil production infrastructure. It couldn't win a war, but the price of victory could be made so high, it would make victory taste very bitter, especially for gulf state US allies.
Very true, Iran would be the strongest nation we'd fought since WW2.
Sure, and Iran will burn, their culture and identity destroyed, their cities razed to the ground, their people dead by the millions and they will not receive any help from anybody, due to them attacking the refineries.
Iran isn't stupid enough to do that, because refineries can be repaired, but a country that has been bombed to the stone age never will.
@@worldman3218 They will.
@@worldman3218 If the US decides to be warmonger again and go forward with war, Iran has been preparing for decades for this war, they will attack hard and cause irreparable damage. No one will win. Iran is not Iraq. The Persians have dealt with invasions for a long time through their culture, and they are quite well aware of their harsh geography, which USA troops will have an extremely hard time in. Like I said no one will win. Iran does not want this war. Iran has been cooperative while the USA has been the bully and an immature fool breaking international law over and over.
That would turn shaky us allies into rather blood thirsty ones seeking revenge, so I guess that could be a choice....
Would probably end like desert storm
@@thecrow618 could also happen, if public support drops
@KingdomofBabylonLost what in 2003? Afghanistan and Iraq were both successfully invaded and occupied with minimal casualties. Stretching that shit out for decades without any clear goal anymore is where it becomes muddled. Trump wanted to grandstand with the Afghanistan withdrawal, but we'd still be there otherwise, just like how we're still in Iraq.
It’s a movie about this, where the US invades and was winning the war and before the US was about to capture Tehran, Russia drops tatical nukes on US forces in Iran, then a nuclear war started.. I forgot the movie name
Threads?
@@massengsle8779 nah i watch threads, it’s not it
Iran has the perfect terrain to fight a defensive peoples guerilla war. You literally could not ask for better defensive terrain. Wadis, swamp, narrow mountain passes, huge engaged population, long standing plans for repelling just such an invasion, thousands upon thousands of small MANPADS, MANPATS and AShM... The main goal of Iran's military doctrine is to defend the regime and make America's war with Iran as expensive as possible. Iran is going to lose in a full confrontation with the US so it's going to pull an even worse VietCong strategy and make the US waste as much resources as possible. Just look at what hezbollah did to Israel and the Houthis to the Saudis. IEDs,ATGM strikes,daily ambushes, MANPADS shooting down helicopters. Iran would slowly bleed out US forces on the ground. We are talking about 300-500 casualties a day. Not to mention the urban warfare nightmare fighting in Isfahan,Tehran,Mashad,Karaj,Shiraz,Qom,Tabriz. It would make the battle of Fallujah look like sunday morning pick up game. China and Russia could get involved. They would send Iran more manpads,ATGMS, claymore mines etc to aid in the guerilla war effort through the Caspian Sea and Pakistan. Anyone who thinks a US invasion of Iran would be a cake walk is delusional. We are talking about 10-20k US casualties in the first two months of fighting. It would end US primacy and prestige.
Yep, It's a geographical fortress
You are absolutely right brother.
There would bo no need to pursue them into that location, once the cities fall, the country falls and almost all of the major cities fall well with range of the US Navy and after the Air Force takes control of the skies, can be bombarded in submission. If the Iraqi military falls back into the mountains, no one cares, because they aren't going to be doing any harm there. The US can implement arial surveilance and when anyone or anything moves, they can drop in Apaches to wipe it out. Anyone that retreats there is going to need supplies, and as soon as they come out of the caves and crevices not only will the people be identified, but so will the location where they are hiding. The US would not have to send a single soldier into that terrain to neautralize them.
Raison, vous etes
Ok, but America will still win, and Iran can't even THINK about touching America's mainland. America's primary will end when someone can successfully invade us FOR ONCE. Nobody can even touch us.

I am Canadian, Iran is not a country that anyone looks at with disgust! The Iranian people may hate their own government, but this is not a reason for foreign countries to invade their homeland. Having advanced weapons does not always guarantee you victory.
If the United States or Israel start a war with Iran, Persians will end it
You are not only fighting an Iranian army, but also 80 million Iranians with love for their homeland So do not underestimate this country
I hope the wise people want peace. War is not a good way to show your power
Iraq war was a complete different story because people taught their government was the best and loved them(kinda brain washed) but now with the new generation if you ask any of them they would fight for Iran it's probably a no
In my opinion, as long as this regime is in Iran, peace with the United States is far from expected, but war is not the right way. I hope that one day the Iranian people will achieve what they really deserve

They showed a boy defending his family with a Kalashnikov against an invading American soldier as a terrorist.
Basra in the Southern part of Iraq is a strong hold of Shia Muslims. A US invasion launched from Wahhabi Saudi Arabia against the Shia regime in Iran will have difficult time passing Basra on their way to Iran
That's all Iranian controlled area, IRGC Quds Commander, shadow general as he is known, General Qasem Soleimani commands most of southern Iraq. They are all Iranian Shia backed forces.
Exactly. And even an Air Campaign alone won't make the Iranians sit still. They will cross into Kuwait and Saudi Arabia to target the Air Bases, forcing a land war. They know casualties are a factor with the US public. So a ground war is beneficial to them, not to mention China and Russia whom will supply large quantities of light weapons and endless ammo. The entire region will be in flames. Maybe that is the plan.

you forget that Nato just made it perfectly clear that supplying weapons is not taking part in a war. expect every single future engagement of the US armed forces to have modern Russian and Chinese weapons supplied against them. after all its not being an active participant in the war.
They helped Vietnam in the Vietnam war they helped Middle-East countries vs Israel and Iraq army was mostly USSR bought equipment. Every modern war was supported by one side of the other its nothing new.
We've seen the RF's weapons orders and weapons exports collapse since the conflict started. Everyone has seen how poorly they stack up against 30+ year old NATO gear wielded by half trained Ukrainian soldiers. Chinese arms, maybe though.
So... Russia and China would do what they've already been doing since the end of WW2? Why would we be surprised by them supplying America's enemies? America supplying Ukraine is basically Vietnam in reverse, they like dishing it out but not taking it?
Binkov's comment section is always so full of salt and poorly-written comments. It's just a military strategy video, he always spends time saying he's not taking the reasonability or world consequences of the war he's looking at into account.
Morale is almost impossible to predict, anyone could say "my country is braver," but the thing with human psychology is that it can flip upside down in mere minutes. Binkov do include morale in his analysis, but it's not emphasized upon because of the aforementioned reason. The US, on paper, would win in the war of attrition against Iran due to larger population pool and larger economy, but modern, real-life war have never been fought "to the last man," political, morale, and logistics determined the victors. If your country has an overwhelming numerical advantage, but your enemy is half the world away and you can only send few thousands troops at the time, you lose by logistical failure. If you have all the advantages except for morale and politics, your citizens will eventually think the war is stupid and will resist draft and other supports (like in the game of chess, it doesn't matter if you lose only few pawns but your enemy have only king left, if you knocked your own king piece down, you lose the game).

Long story short. America might look unstoppable in the movies. Reality is different.

Binkow should have compared to Afganisthan. Moutains all over the country and NATO simply cannot win against a 20 million people country. Forget about Iran at 83.
The Vietnam war was just a police action war the USA never declared war on Vietnam. It was just a battle in the cold war against the USSR, a battle that the USA lost A-war that it won.
yes: the us has bombers that can take off from mainland usa fly to where ever their target is drop bombs and fly back home. not to mention they got floating airbases on the high seas that can strike anywhere in the world.
Let me just say I only have two reasons to believe the US can't completely defeat Iran.
No 1: Iran's geography isn't like Iraq. Iran would be a nightmare and mountain warfare means heavy casualties for the attacker
No 2: History has some consistent patterns. And one of those pattern is that the iran has never in history been completely conquered. Even at it's weakest point back when Russia annexed a huge chunk half of it was still under their own control

I believe the Iranians moral would be fairly high, this would likely be due to their very long and natural history. Unlike the rest of the Middle East following World War 1, Iran (persia) was not balkanized like the remnants of the Ottoman empire. The reason Iraq's troops would occasionally surrender without a fight is because they were not of the same ethnicity or religious sect.
Iran on the other hand is composed of mostly ethnic Iranians who, for the most part, share the same branch of religion and support for thier secular government. So a prediction of years of bloody and fierce fighting on both sides would be accurate.
Nikolay Mikhayluts Yes the Iranians would be a very tough crowd.
Even after the collapse of their government and loss of their military, some ex soldiers or even civilians could take arms and start a guerrilla war against the occupying Americans. This could lead to Iranian freedom fighters and terrorist groups ambushing US forces, terrorist plots, and even launching attacks on American civilians, committing acts comparable to 9/11, leading to a whole new can of worms.
Would truly be a shit show if the Americans went to war with Iran. The war itself would be brutal and long, the Iranians have a decent military. After the Americans eventually won over, the occupation and keeping the peace would be hard. Look at Iraq. 16 years after the 2003 invasion and its still a war torn country. Iran would be like that just on a much larger scale, having further repercussions on the wider world.
Iranian moral is high until bombs start dropping on their heads.....That is what happened to the Iraqis

Russia knowes that if Iran falls they are next. They can't let that happen
@@michaelpetrovich5353 I don't believe America will attack Iran unless they get the full backing of NATO. Russia will give Iran all the weapons it needs to defend itself. American government will need public opinion to be on their side as well. Vietnam ended because Americans lost the will to continue. Afghanistan would definitely go the same way if American troops come home in body bags in the same way. Iran would be tougher than Afghanistan because their population would be as the population of Vietnam determined to protect their homes. With that kind of will, America can not win. America can defeat armies, but not peoples minds.
@StrategicFooyoo And China is big enough to do that. I will bet that America won't stop Chinese ship picking up oil in Iran.
I also think that this analysis misses the major point that Kuwait is largely dependent on the Gulf for its oil exports which Iran’s fleet of speed boats and mini subs could easily blockade. Maybe only for a few weeks but that would no doubt hurt Kuwait’s economy.
America cant attack to iran because it will be so expensive for them in this economy situation . I think world war 3 will start in taiwan .the persian empire Guaranteed by the alliance of China and Russia. And we are witnessing the transfer of power from the West to the East, and the mafia that emerged after World War II will be destroyed .America will disintegrate in a few years and the glue of federalism will disappear .If the Americans reach Iran, Iran will have access to American territory through Venezuela, and the world has seen how incapable of American missiles defense against Iranian missiles.

Even with 30% being fit, that's more than 8 million that you would need. The US doesn't need to occupy anything. Occupation is totally optional. The strength of the US is the ability to win in offensive campaigns. Sitting around in an occupation is a recipe for insurgency. Simply razing the country to the stone age would secure the US's strategic goals without the need to provide Iranians fairly stationary targets. I think the US has learned that lesson.
Iran can also do something that Iraq could not. They have the potential to hit the US directly because of sleeper cells within the USA. While it will not strategically affect the front lines, it could be a useful political tool for Iran as some Americans don't have the stomach for war.
Attacking the US is definitely not in Irans best interest. Pearl Harbor and 9/11 shows that Americans come together after attacks and that war support rises. If Iran's goal is to use the US public's war support against the government then it would think twice about attacking US soil.

Terrorism is often used when a country is outmatched in a conventional warfare, but its effectiveness is unpredictable. Sometimes it'll just piss the invader's nation off more, the other time it can cause the invader withdraw, or if they haven't invade yet, make them reconsider. It's a dangerous bet, regardless, terrorism can sometimes keep the defender nation's free, but it could also risks retaliation that may lead to more civilians (that insurgents are "supposed" to protect) being killed. But then again, if someone resorted to terrorism, they have no other choice left (the reason why US war with Japan and Vietnam didn't lead to terrorism from those countries because their conventional forces can still hold up).
@@RutgersPride27 Depends on what they target. If they target civilian, ofc it will backfire. But if they attack administration or military facilities, while not being the aggressor (unlike Pearl Harbor), they could get the same effect on the US population than during the Vietnam war.
@@evoluxman9935 The military is very popular with Americans as it has some of the highest favorability ratings out of all institutions. Attacking bases will backfire on Iran also.
@@RutgersPride27 Iran' goal is peace, that's why they signed the JPCOA. If USA attacks however Iran has a culture than praises matyrdom. They are an incredibly proud people. They will never surrender and would prefer death. If USA attacks they will have to be prepared to kill every Iranian
Let's hope it remains 'hypothetical!' The LAST thing this country needs is another futile, expensive, and horrendously bloody Oil War. :(
As they said in Star Trek VI, "We'll clean their chronometers."
This war would be pointless and usa knows this already.
What is pointless about Iran?

It would be better for all of us to unite as one country and to live like we are supposed to live. Love earth
The narrator only forgot to add the support, in equipment and military consultations that they would have from Russia, China, among others, to the equation, which would make the War much longer and more expensive.
you all know why youre watching this
Sigh... You know you're getting old when F-14's are "mediocre" :-(
Time is a cruel mistress. The reason is is considered mediocre now is the radar cross section and maintenance issues. Theirs probably still has the 80's radars and would struggle to identify our partial stealthed planes from a safe distance. Unless someone managed to steal our improved radar designs and sold them upgraded radars (cough China cough).
including alaska but not hawaii?
He puts a lot of thought into this stuff, very interesting my man
Here watching this before WW3
The comments never disappoint here, watching a bunch of 10 year old keyboard warriors with no sense of how warfare even works circlejerking around gotta be more entertaining than Binkovs videos itself.
You didn’t consider paratroopers beyond defensive lines / mountains?
I wonder how this compares to the official plans?
I doubt it theres any, well that was one battle where usa got two of their generals and gave them a navy. General 1 had the red navy (Iran) and general 2 had the blue navy (USA). The blue navy had alot more tech and was simply much better, this battle was to show how strong USA is compared to iran navy. BUT against all odds the red navy ACTUALLY WON, USA of course being angry banned the use of suicide ships and then they won.
@@kevinsworldK.w69 do you remember the Iraq war? ( both)
There are probably 3 different plans since the 80s.
"Could thousands of people invade area 51" next pls
Clap clap them alien cheeks
Nope! Not possible since it is remote in the desert of Nevada. The logistics of the March are impossible to organize by random people who are just showing up.
Plus Las Vegas does not have enough hotel rooms for two million people.
I don't think that would be a very good idea unless you would like to spend some time in a federal prison!
@@tolmie1141 if too many people actually attack area 51 the government will use 👽 alien technologies to teleport them away!!!
@@alilabeebalkoka GOOD that way my tax dollars won't be spent to house the idiots in Federal Prison!

would be extremely bloody and not worth it for either side. no one would win it. hope it never happens.
It can, but at what cost?
We about to find out
It be a combination of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan with more people with more experience with better weapons and a huge system of heavily armed and heavily supplied of underground bunkers. Not to mention Iran’s geography provides the country with natural choke points making the country a giant meat grinder for American soldiers
Iran is one of the reasons we've had forces in the two countries on either side of Persia.
It's not Persia I don't know why they keep calling it Persia it ain't Persia Persia cease to exist after Alexander the Great conquered the empire of Persia
Hey Binkov I have a semi-idea war scenario. Let's say Russia invaded the United States while the Rest of the United States Army is (in a war in the Middle East which is taking too long like this one an Iran war, or idk something in the Middle East) could the US halt an attack if most of their forces are in a different part of the world?
Could happen, if we have a free weekend. That's all it would take
A country that had airports more than a hundred years before the airplane was invented, shouldn't have a problem.
Lol true hahaha
How many people watching Binkov US vs Iran in January 2020?
Me and your mom just started watching! Thanks for asking bud.
American forces would roll over Iran’s standard military just like they did in Iraq but what happens after ward would be a completely different story
@bangi true
Should only do it if Iran started attacking American forces and when the Iranian people start prolonged protests against the mullahs.
They would have to have a shadow
Iranian government to put in place.
Not like the chaos of Iraq when there was a void of day to day running of the government .
If they could, they would have done it by now. Way before even Iraq and Afghanistan!
Hypothetical ...... looking a bit real now Bink
Interesting, but I wonder why you include US regional allies but not Iran's regional allies? I guess because this analysis of war relies heavily on technology.
What regional allies? Syria is in ruins and won't play a part, Hezballa in Lebanon is completly dependant on Iran and does not have the ability to assist in such war, Russia and China might support it with equipment and maybe try slow down the economic decline, but both would never engage in direct war with the US.
Ok , I changed my mind, no Iranian war
Good, now Biden and his puppeteers have to agree.
Gives the nuclear option a credence. If faced by invasion.
Trumps watching this for military strategy
And his military strategist Doug DeMuro😂
Then what's he watchin your momma for??
@@theboatman360 Because hes into fat chicks
Tbf, I dont think even Trump would be dumb enough to attempt a land invasion of a country like Iran for any reason
😄 2021
You forgot Russia and China .
And Turkey
Ta Ha turkey is US bitch
Would they really risk a war with NATO? I am not so sure...
@@randonlando418 Russia would not want the USA to take control of Iran so they would definitely provide Iran with some support. If Iran was an easy target, they would have been invaded many many years ago. But the US has always been very scared of a conflict with Iran.
@Eric Smith Russia isn't just going to let the USA overthrow Iran hahah Rusia and China both helped Syria fight back against US attacks. Btw The USA won't do jack shit to Iran without the help of other western nations.
As a service man… this is terrifying. Knowing how incompetent our modern officers are I can tell you we will see massive casualties and thousands of troops surrendering.
Why does nobody understand that in Binkov's videos allies and nukes are never considered and morale is always 100
HAHA nice Call of war reference/hoi4
"Hypothetical" Heh nervous sweating intensifies.
You guys should do:
*area 51 VS 500000 weebs*
Slavic hardbass Argentinia is pretty nice i guess, but i can’t wait for the return!
500,000 drones converging on area 51..theyed need 10,000 mini guns around the whole base and it will be over in 20 mins..
All we know is this war would be hella costly, definitely more than 2 Trillion $ also US airforce and Iranian missiles would be really lethal
