Trump Faces 8-Week Window for Iran Strikes NBC News reports that Trump has eight weeks before Democrats take over Congress in January, putting funding limits and investigations at risk. The head of the Pentagon Higasat returns to renewed attacks; Vice President Vance is pursuing talks with Tehran. Targets may include nuclear sites (Pickaxe Mountain) and oil infrastructure. Iran is preparing for a strike on American assets in Europe IRGC has imposed range restrictions on Hanurambara-4 missiles (2000-4000 km). Possible targets: RAF Fairford (UK), NSA Naples and sites in Romania, Bulgaria, Greece. A key objective is to disable the Aegis Ashore system and AN /SPY-1D radar using warheads or drones. This would reduce NATO's missile defense beyond 80-100 km, potentially forcing the Pentagon to deploy THAAD systems and additional Aegis destroyers to the Mediterranean. @Slavyangrad.
