The whole purpose of destroying Navy was to ensure that Iran should not be able to effectively close strait hurmoz
But given the asymmetric methods on table for IRGC, they have still choked the SoH.
In that sense, US clearly failed to achieve its objective

The US has total air superiority over the Strait and can pick off Iranian boats at will as seen in the above videos. The US hasn’t failed at anything. In fact, this is the most dominant US military performance since the days of Desert Storm and they’re doing it with less assets.

As already posted earlier, so long as Iran has a single missile and the means to deliver it, the Straits will be at risk. That is why in part US focus is now on destroying any mine laying capability Iran may still have and hunting launchers like we did in Shield/Storm.

Suggest you consider this reality when you post.

No one is whining. Simply a discussion taking into account what is currently known publicly. Some have good reason to believe some of the shortages are real.

Any Iranian sailor heading out on a boat to deliver mines are on suicide missions. MQ-4s and P-8 sensor capabilities are highly advanced and see everything on that waterway. The Strait is owned by US air power.

Gen Caine has already confirmed the US has sufficient stocks of offensive and defensive munitions.

There are still missiles to contend with. All Iran needs is one.
