If they come remotely close to a US vessel, it will not end well for them at all.

USN live fire exercise.

We need to cycle through some old ordinance anyway.

We could pull some WW2 era battleships from mothball status and let them have some fun

I know todays stuff is so much better but a South Dakota class ship was nothing to laugh at.

A 16" main gun could launch a 2000 pound projectile 23 miles. And a each one had 9 such guns, each with 2 RPM firing rate.

That is a lot of hell to rain down on someone.

Sounds like it's time for Big Navy to show a little more muscle in the region.

Remember the last Iraq war. The Iraqi Army was running across the desert with white flags within like the fist 30 min of the war!

WE SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THE OIL!

It would be awesome to see what Trump would do to that country once we over run them

As another poster noted, placing your military assets in a confined, restricted space is not a wise strategic decision. It would be a turkey shoot for our Navy and air power.
