I think it was 20 years ago I saw an interview with Shamkhani, at the time head of Navy (before his time as defence minister), the reporter asked him: "How long would Iran last against the US Navy". The reporter was expecting a lengthy answer of the sort "we will wound them badly...", however Shamkhani didn't blink and swiftly answered: Yek rob (Fifteen minutes!). Needless to say the reporter was baffled by this answer haha
At the time Iran didn't even have cruise missiles, let alone building battle ships.
20 years ago, US secretary of defence would never "ask" his allies to help him with Iran. Times have changed!
that is what i was thinking too no navy will gear to get close to Iran from 2000 KM if we were in war, and that is a big achievement only in 20 years
i just thinking to carrier security protocols
security protocols in Persian gulf will go down to toilet, they can pick it up when they are in Arabian sea, there is no security in Persian gulf
