For the last 50 odd years it was Russia who was the bogeyman of these war games but with the break up of the Russian federation, the little niggles that were the middle east have now taken on a more dominant role.

That being the case the "Strikes" against Iran are really nothing new as such, it's just that as more advanced & precision weaponry becomes available the game plan changes & is trialled, preparation & planning doesn't necessarily mean retaliatory or offensive strikes.
