The Iranians must be trying to provoke a confrontation. Imkokehead must have a deathwish.

The navy needs a visible laser to paint these Bozo’s boats with to let them know they are playing with fire.

Wow, they got closer to these 3 USN vessels than the Viet boats did to the USS Maddox in 1964. Within easy reach of the M2’s on desk. Maybe even too close for the 5” guns to depress -10 degrees?

The Iranian boats got nothin’ though. They don’t have torps or mines on board. This was a “gut check” for their navy commandos, I bet. Didn’t we read something about their Revolutionary Guard taking over their Navy a while back?

Paint the aggressors with an Aegis radar all nice and focused. Instant jerky.
