    Default Iran vs. Saudi Arabia



    The following picture shows the military, economic strength of both countries, compared. (source: globalfirepower)

    The major advantages for both Iran and KSA are highlighted red, over each other.

    Personally, I can see overwhelming advantage of Iran over KSA.

    Welcome. Lately I've seen both Iranian and Saudi members claiming they can destroy each other in a war. This comparison should serve as an eye opener for them.

    Plus, I do not think this comparison takes into account the no. of missiles Iran and KSA has. A field in which Iran would be overwhelmingly superior.

    Really, what will happen when Saudi's have air superiority? What happened Saddam in Gulf Wars? Today's wars are mainly in air.

    The thread is about present military capability. Not who will acquire what in future. About your above post, I'm sure Iran also got enough in its sleeve for the future.

    Supporting Saudis is the last thing to do for me. But open your eyes and small the coffee, if we are comparing equipment, Saudis are more modern.

    It's not always about modern weapons,you know it.
    I hope there won't be any war between 2 countries,but if they are stupid enough to do so,we will use all we have to crush them.Just because some of their equipment are modern.it doesn't mean that we can't defeat them.

    Iran is not an aggressive state. We don't have an eye for territories from any of our neighbours. We don't claim any of the lands of our neighbours. So our war fighting capabilities are more defensive in nature. And when it comes to that, suffice it to say that even the US has been having second and third thoughts about opening that can of warms. And that's all that matters...

    The Persian gulf arab states can spend their money on shiny toys with interesting paint jobs, if they want. I'm just glad we don't.
