The Night Witches. 1942.
Stalin is desperate. Germany is burning through the Soviet Union.
So he does something no military power had ever done.
He hands combat aircraft to women. 2/8
Not support roles. Not ferrying planes behind the lines.
Actual bombing missions. At night. Behind German lines. Alone.
The 588th Night Bomber Regiment. Every pilot, navigator, ground crew member — a woman.

This wasn't a military operation.
It was a complete institutional demolition.
Executed with surgical precision.
In 72 hours. One of the most heavily secured assets in Iran."
That phrase tells you everything.
Iran spent decades hardening this compound.
Underground. Reinforced. Air defended. Secured.
Specifically to survive exactly this scenario.

With precise intelligence.
Overnight.
The lesson every regime just learned:
Security theater isn't security.
The most protected place on earth
is only as safe as your intelligence is clean.
Iran's intelligence wasn't clean.
We now know that with certainty.
