I'm pretty sure the Krewe of the Diversion is better armed, equipped, and sea-worthy than this so called Iranian "fleet".

Is it an actual destroyer or a dingy with 4 guys with RPG's and AK47's? I have no worries about this "fleet". Meh.



Iran's domestically-built Jamaran destroyer test-fires a missile in the Persian Gulf.

Just wondering how the US Navy deals with stuff like this


If they manage to make it close to our waters, they wont beable to take a shite without us knowing.

If we had leadership with some balls, we would tail them with a sub, and send Iran live updates of what their ships are doing.

You know foreign relations:

Maverick: Communicating. Keeping up foreign relations. You know, giving him the bird!
Goose: You know, the finger.
Charlie: Yes, I know the finger, Goose.
Goose: I-I'm sorry, I hate it when it does that, I'm sorry. Excuse me.

Y'all are either forgetting or too young to remember how Iran brought the carter presidency and the us to its knees.

Their navy may not be a superpower but winning a battle is relative to them....

Skirmishes with them in the 80s....didn't involve the B team....

And it had nothing to do with their military.

That's only because Carter was a B-class president.

Not a doubt in my mind we have some nerd in a blacked-out room with a million computer screens somewhere watching every inch these ships move.

Still not worried and it seems kind of... small? I have full confidence in our Navy and Air Force to completely obliterate those ships if there's any sign of wrongdoing/aggression.

Either this or a sub we don't know about. We'll listen to every fart they make.
