With any luck it will just be Russia giving Iran a few high tech missiles.To make the tit for tats to costly to do more often. But you might be right at some stage it will have to go off. Indeed this might be the moment to fill the car up.

The DEFCON level is classified. Anyone that says they know what level we’re at is FOS. It can also be changed for individual units or theaters, without the overall level being changed.

SKYMASTER is not used to launch an attack. It's used for after we get hit, and is an emergency protocol for a post nuclear strike on the US to launch a second strike. They also wouldn't be sending anything to nuclear silos in the clear for a real world event.

Of course things are busier. But something like what was being seen and claimed in the OP isn't something that's a snap event. This was planned ahead of time and is part of a larger, planned in advance event.
