IRANIAN MILITARY BOARDED MARSHALL ISLANDS-FLAGGED CARGO SHIP
From Wiki on Marshall Islands:
quote:
Politically, the Marshall Islands is a presidential republic in free association with the United States, with the US providing defense, subsidies, and access to social services. With few natural resources, the islands' wealth is based on a service economy, as well as some fishing and agriculture; aid from the United States represents a large percentage of the islands' gross domestic product. The country uses the United States dollar as its currency.
does this technically classify as a US ship?

US ships taking that route did have embark security from naval expeditionary forces. Don't know if we laxed on this due to the budget cuts. But if same policy as a few years ago then we would be hearing much more if Iran fired on a us cargo ship under the protection of embark secueity. usual load out is 4 .50 cals mounted forward and aft with two m240s roaming. Plus COG's usually have a M30. Those boats Iran usually had out there are more for annoyance and would get shredded if provoked.

I wonder if OP is ever going to come back and update his post since the situation has obviously developed from what he originally posted???
