I can almost guarantee you that the IDF will hit Iran hard if or when they know that Iran have either finish building or have acquired an actual thermonuclear warhead or bomb.

Funny, cos I can guarantee you that when Iran demonstrates it is a nuclear power is when it never need to worry about an Israeli attack again, just look North Korea.

Before nukes, it was on the Axis of Terror, and there were periodic mutterings of strikes or even regime change. After nuclear tests, not a peep, even after some blatantly thuggish behavior by the North, such as shelling or civilians and sinking of a South Korean warship.

America and Israel will only consider military attack on Iran before it has the bomb, and the objective of those military strikes will be to prevent Iran from getting the bomb.

Once Iran has the bomb, the window for military options is firmly shut, and America and Israel might have to, perish the thought, negotiate with Iran and actually hear its concerns and demands instead of just listing out what Iran has to do with no thought of offering anything in return.

The weird wing design isn't new. US also experimented this design. Few examples: XB-70, XF-108, XP-56,

The main problem Iran has is lack of powerful enough native engine for their indigenous fighter designs. I think they should get a license from Russia to build either the Al-222 or the RD-93.
