The Iranians do not have to do anything more to tell the world that they are in fact winning the war. Most analysts are saying that Iran does not have to defeat the USA, but by showing its ability to survive USA brutal assault is enough to tell the world it has in fact won the war.
Now, whether there is going to be a ceasefire or a stalemate, Iran is going to be seen standing tall looking at what it has done and achieved. Why do I say so?
Throughout the war, Iran has shown that it is capable of taking out USA military bases, radar systems, interceptor batteries and render the USA naval power totally unable to exert its strength. The USA, despite the boasting by Trump of destroying Iran's air force, navy and missile sites, is still facing a fear of Iranian hypersonic drones and missiles hidden deep underground.
What has the USA achieved in all of this war? The reputation of the USA projection of power using its aircraft carriers has been given a rude awakening. Iran's use of Chinese anti-aircraft carrier hypersonic missiles has punctured the much-hype up invincibility of the USA naval power projection since WW2 and is a lesson that will be well learnt by the Chinese in any future confrontation with the USA. China does not have to test-drive its anti-aircraft carrier missiles as Iran is doing it for free. Iran is also giving Chinese air=defense a test of its capability that China has little chance of testing them. Never mind that the USA and the West called them junks. I do not think those anti-aircraft carrier missiles are junks, otherwise the USA would not have to move them out of range from the Iranian coastline.
There is still little being talked about the use of spoofing by the Iranians against satellite imaging and fighter jet targeting by the USA military, using Russian and Chinese technology. When fighter jets shoot at each other and bombs miss their targets by wide margins, who knows what is happening. It is well known that the GPS system is hackable and not spoofing proof in the wars fought so far.
