Tactics and Strategy at the Strait of Hormuz

The larger part of Iran's military technology is outdated, with several pre-revolution legacy systems still in service. Iran has learnt through the years how to reverse engineer and replicate these technologies to the point where it now possesses very relevant numbers of weapons ready to use. These homegrown technologies are often publicly displayed in war games and are much celebrated by armed forces officials and politicians alike. Some of these weapons are effectively dangerous, like the midget submarines operating in shallow waters. Others, like the missile armed speedboats, are weapons whose particular effectiveness is largely unknown. These simpler technologies are menacing much more for their numbers than anything else. They probably give Iran the ability to sustain a military conflict around the Strait for some time.

And then there are the many state-of-the-art weapons acquired from Russia and China in recent years. Regarding these, the information available to the public is scant, sometimes even contradictory, as most arms deals have been shrouded in secrecy. The numbers and accuracy of these technologies are unknown in most cases, preventing a clear image of Iran's true military power. Is this uncertainty just part of an attempt by Iran to project an image of military power larger than what it actually has? Or is it part of the acquisition strategy to protect sensible deals that could raise objections from the West? In any case, the few weapons known for certain to be owned by Iran, like the Moskit missile, the S-300 air defence system, or the J-10 jet fighter are enough to discredit any idea of immediate superiority by NATO over Iran.


Scenario I – Direct engagement from Iran on commercial vessels at the Strait.

Scenario II – Direct engagement from Iran on military vessels in the Persian Gulf.

Scenario III – Military engagement by NATO on Iran

Scenario IV – No military action

Not so classified if its in the maimstream :)

scuttling the 'Enterprise' seems like a
pretty obvious move at this point.

hope they remove the crew before it happens.
I'd be thinking about making a swim for it
when land was within sight.

The enterprise is on its last voyage
the lincoln is due for a 2 _+ year refuel refit at over a billion dollar
the vinson was the shop that tossed osama bin camel felchin smelly remains overboard


make of it what you will

Internal Look war games take place twice a year and have long been one of Central Command’s most significant planning exercises. Over the years, they have been used to prepare for various wars in the Middle East, including the invasion of Iraq in 2002.

In the end, officials told the paper "the war game reinforced to military officials the unpredictable and uncontrollable nature of a strike by Israel, and a counterstrike by Iran."

Israel Convincing Itself That Iran Attack is the Right Move

Despite reports that the American military is not bullish about an attack on Iran, it seems some Israelis are more optimistic about their ability to shut down Iran without a full-blown war erupting. Jeffery Goldberg of Bloomberg News writes that based on what he's hearing from sources in Israel, the government is not only convinced that an attack will be necessary, but that the consequences won't be as bad as most people think.

Interesting read..thx doorbert

Things are really heating up..about to boil over..there is no doubt about it any more. They just do not do military buildups in regions like this without war..past history shows this to be true.

People know about these false flags - the USS Maine, Pearl Harbor, the Gulf of Tonkin, the USS Liberty, 9/11.

They are learning about the false flags - the Lusitania, and now maybe the Titanic.

Breathtakingly, astoundingly, so many are ho-hum. Fluoride, chemtrails, etc. have got people in a trance.

sadly I agree with you, it's just a matter of when not if anymore

end of ur post where it says

"if President Obama were to decide on a full-scale retaliation."

retaliate for what?

Classified because its a plan to have a USS Liberty Redux?

Gotta destroy that carrier and sink it so we wont have to pay billions to decommission the reactors?

I can already hear Nutty Yahoo: "OH, I THINK IT IS VERY GOOD!"

If Israel false flags the USA, we will end them.

The aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CVN 65) conducted a mass casualty drill March 17, as part of a continued commitment to mission readiness.

A mass casualty is any instance in which the level of casualties is greater than the medical department can support.

Thanks for pin

I don't know what to think at this point.

Since about 2 days ago, there have been MSM articles saying that the US and Israel agreed Iran has no nuclear weapons and intend to use the uranium for energy purposes, then an Israeli newspaper had a similar article, quoting a Mossad guy as saying there is no evidence of Iranian bomb threat.

So I thought there is some hope that Iran, and all those who would end up being involved whether they like it or not, would be spared.

Now it's back to war language again.

Did you happen to see any of those articles?

LOL the false flag we where waiting for!

Not a warship.
Aircraft carrier more likely:
Thread: "WW3 will start with the sinking of an aircraft carrier"

Israel's recent air raids on Gaza could be preparation for conflict with Iran

The only difference between this drill and "real" events is that the authority decides to portray it as real and the controlled media plays ball.

@ Doorbert you posted a link on another thread that listed the locations of most of the Us Navy's ships and the number of service members. What was that link please? I want to show a co-worker who's in the navy reserves.

Thanks!

Is it this one:

They will setup/ambush our armed forces overseas. Obama drools over this thought.

What? Obama spends his entire term destroying the USA at home and doesn't care about destroying our military?

BULLSHIT

Obama is with himself. He is promised he gets to control all the Islamic countries while the British bankers get the rest. NONE OF THEM can afford patriotic, brave, armed American soldiers around. THE NAVY / MARINES WILL BE FIRST AND WILL BE SETUP AND ATTACKED WITH MASS CASUALTIES..

Its common sense. Thats what happens when you leave treason in power. You've been warned.

wow like no news from that part of the world, been very quiet recently.

Iran is fast approaching the "zone of immunity" in which a military strike will not be able to effectively halt its nuclear program, Defense Minister Ehud Barack told German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle on Wednesday.
