US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

[Yasser76]

I just want to see a DDG inside the Persian Gulf. I bet you don't have the guts—chicken?

Wanna see a single Iranian major surface vessel period....

So, I finally updated my fuel logs today. Estimate of fuel prices for the trip to Ohio and back were not far off. Was projecting $950-$1000. Spent $890 and that included premium for 2 of the stops.

Not too long ago, premium all the way there and back would set you back about $300-400?

(Back of the envelope math)

US has destroyed all their big Navy ships.

From what I understand, Iran didn't have a big Navy to begin with. And any ships they did have, or at least most of them were destroyed by the US

Hahaha, and that with a non-existent navy. It’s a historic embarrassment. Just imagine the look on the faces of the Chinese High Command in the Taiwan Strait.

Like this powerful supercarrier acquired by the IRGC: the IRIS Shahid Bagheri.

Iranian navy was just made up of fast armed small speed boats. To dominate and harass shipping in the Straits.

Apache Gunships & A-10 warthogs would have been the natural defence against Irans good fast boat attacks in the Straits. . But, US Military found out very quickly. The straits& GCC coastline is well under Irans drone coverage. Making A10s and Apache gunships easy targets for Iranian drones.

US DDGs have entered the Strait multiple times. Even came under heavy drone and missile fire to no effect
