Iran could probably have about 1 million troops in its armed forces. How big is the 101 Airborne Division?
20K troops total.
they would not be used to take on the nation, they would be used to secure airports, and other points of entry. simply because they could/would be able to move fastest than any other unit, once they are on the ground.
Take airports? And then what, fly in the rest of the troops? Hasn't Iran got lots of surface-to-air missiles and other air defences? A lot of planes could be lots trying to get to the airport.
Maybe it'd be better to SEND IN THE MARINES!!! Take a SEA PORT!!
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 991727yes, without a doubt, the sea ports would be prime points of entry that would have to secured as well. and yes, iran does have a lot of anti-air assets; but they would be destroyed before the division could insert... and yes, the corp is there just offshore ready for insertion as well...
