9 Iranian naval ships have been destroyed and sunk

I think at the time, they were worried about small mines not cool WW2 type monsters, but not sure.

Also good for their little attack dingys too.

So far the air force has shown their ability to roflstomp the Iranian defenses.

I expect no less than the navy.

Its a lot easier to do escort duty when you have already turned their surface fleet into submarines...

Still have to watch for drones I imagine.

It's accurate. I have a family member fairly high up in the military who is one of the people coordinating these strikes. I spoke to them last night because my wife and I have an April trip to Morocco planned and we were wondering if we should cancel.

Sure thing.

Ouch. That's going to sting. I imagine many of the missiles that have been striking some of their neighbors have been coming from these ships.

U.S. President Donald Trump announced Sunday that nine Iranian naval ships have been sunk as part of combat operations against Iran.

“I have just been informed that we have destroyed and sunk 9 Iranian Naval Ships, some of them relatively large and important,” Trump wrote in a post on X, adding that Iran’s naval headquarters has been “largely destroyed” in a different attack.

President Trump also said Iran's naval headquarters has been "largely destroyed" in a different attack.

Why is it taking so long and what is left?

 

[gipper]

Tell us about US and Israeli losses?

Whoever gave the order to sink an unarmed ship and leave the survivors to die needs to face criminal charges.

The same goes for anyone who knowingly followed this order.

The Iranian regime is on their last legs

Crown Prince of Iran Reza Pahlavi says he has agreed to accept the role of Iran’s transitional leader.

Reza Pahlavi is the son of the Shah of Iran who fled the country when Ayatollah Khomeneini took control of the Islamic nation.

//Yes it's over now. Already picking a new interim leader. A guy off living in exile.//

I doubt very much the Iranian people would ever accept a traitor as their leader.

This is what these idiots don't get, if it was their Country they sure wouldn't, they always seem surprised when people defend their Country against foreign aggression, but there are always some who would, some would have accepted Oswald Mosley in Britain if Hitler had installed him, part of France accepted the Vichy Regime under Petain, there were puppet Regimes in Norway and collaborators all over Europe.

I'd rather not, thanks.

An additional option is for the US to confiscate all the Chinese tankers still being permitted through, until such time as the Strait is open. Then Iran is under the same pressure as the other states who's trade is blocked.

Or invade and take Kharg Island.

That could work if you want war with China.
