US Navy sends nuclear submarine and two URO cruisers to Persian Gulf

The United States sent two cruisers and a nuclear submarine to the Persian Gulf. As reported by the press service of the 5th fleet US Navy, nuclear submarines Georgia and missile cruisers Port Royal and Philippine Sea entered the Gulf.

According to the 5th Fleet, based in Bahrain, the dispatch of the submarine Georgia to the Persian Gulf, accompanied by the URO cruisers Port Royal and the Philippine Sea, demonstrates the fleet's ability to operate wherever international law allows, as well as the US commitment to regional partners and maritime security.

The American submarine carrying 5 Tomahawk cruise missiles has been upgraded to accommodate up to 154 Special Operations Force fighters, according to data provided by the US Navy's 66th Fleet. Whether there are special forces on board, the report does not say.

There is also no information on how long the nuclear submarine Georgia and the cruisers Port Royal and Philippine Sea will be in the Persian Gulf.

Meanwhile, it became known that on the eve of the cruiser USS Port Royal, within the framework of Saudi Arabia's CTF-150 "Maritime Security" operation in the international waters of the Arabian Sea, intercepted a bulk drug cargo "over 1100 pounds."

The report says that the ship's crew eventually seized: 150 pounds (45 kg) of hashish, 400 pounds (181 kg) of methamphetamine and 600 pounds (272 kg) of heroin. It was not reported from whom the illegal cargo was seized.

Subtle humor. )))

Some kind of tricky logistics they have - from Afgan through the Arabian Sea

[nPuBaTuP]

To a mad dog, 5 miles is not a hook ...

[marchcat]

The American budget was immediately replenished by 1100 pounds.

[fetus]

this is not to relax in Iran. although Iran is already used to it and is not particularly straining.

[Alex777]

The author of the article is also good with humor:

According to data provided by the 5th US Navy Fleet, an American submarine carrying 54 Tomahawk cruise missiles, was upgraded to accommodate up to 66 special operations forces. Whether there are special forces on board, the report does not say.

Rockets there 154... One unit is lost, but what a difference in potential.

It's a dubious pleasure to chase the ships of drug lords on a cruiser ... ... these guys are dark as usual ...

[Connor MacLeod]

Sounds too good to be true.

[Note]

What's good ...

[Connor MacLeod]

Iran will become their second Vietnam.

[Note]

If it does start, there will be no resemblance to Vietnam. There will be a big trouble for many countries of the world.

[Connor MacLeod]

And how will it become - an endless air war over Iran itself, plus an endless insurrectionary war against the Americans in the countries adjacent to Iran - in Iraq and Afghanistan. Vietnam as it is. For Russia and China, Vietnam 2.0 will definitely not become a DISADVANTAGE, but, on the contrary, will become a VICTORY!

[Note]

You do not quite understand what you are talking about and what you want. First, Iran has quite a bit of air force. Air defense and missile defense will be neutralized by very numerous strikes, and, if necessary, by tactical nuclear charges. After that, the blow will be dealt to the industrial and facilities of Iran's nuclear program. In addition, in response, Iran will use its already manufactured, albeit few, nuclear charges. Some of which, by the way, are already near the border of Israel, and another part is possible not far from some US territories. Now look at the map. How far from us is a probable TVD, with the use of even tactical nuclear charges?

Yes, I have been interested in history and military affairs for several years. That is why I draw parallels so boldly ...

Quote: Note

Well, with the air defense and the air force, Russia and China will help - we will train and arm. You can also help with weapons for rebel movements - the latest anti-tank systems, MANPADS, mines, riflemen, etc., etc. We will test new weapons on the Americans!

Quote: Note

It is more likely that most of the aggressor's air force will be neutralized at their bases with the help of Iranian MRBM and OTRK.

and, if necessary, tactical nuclear charges. After that, the blow will be dealt to the industrial and facilities of Iran's nuclear program.

As for nuclear weapons, you are right to have noticed, I would not be surprised if the USA used them. The fact is that the military operations of the Americans have always been distinguished by numerous war crimes. Carpet bombing of cities, burning villages with napalm, flooding everything with defoliants and causing an ecological catastrophe for them is a nice thing. I say the parallels with Vietnam are striking ...

In addition, in response, Iran will use its already manufactured, albeit few nuclear charges. Some of which, by the way, are already near the border of Israel, and another part is possibly not far from some territories of the United States. Now look at the map. How far from us is the likely high-powered weapon, with the use of even tactical nuclear warheads?

Iran does not have any nuclear charges, otherwise, given the threat looming over them, the Persians would have demonstrated and tested it long ago. The US will not buy the world community for this bullshit. Your bit card!

[Note]

Iran had its first charge ready in early spring this year. I don’t know how many of them now. I think quite a bit. Notice not warheads, not bombs, just low power charges. How the charge works is unknown, what is used, plutonium, uranium, is also not clear. But now to inform the whole world that they are like death for Iran. Think for yourself why. Where is Iran and where is the United States. Israel has a powerful pro. And Iran does not have reliable delivery systems yet. So it turns out that Israel received information about the charges understood the danger and informed the United States. And then how it goes. If Iran announced it, it would be immediately defeated by all its allies. And so while everything hung in the balance.

[Connor MacLeod]

Where did you get all this information? From the ceiling chtoli?

[Note]

How do I, tell you everything, where, how, why? There is such a concept of an analyst. And, of course, the ability and ability to receive snippets of information from the right sources. And also to notice minor details that no one pays attention to. Of course, I'm not going to prove something to someone. Just take it as it is if you like. And time will tell. So, by and large, for me it's just a way to stay in shape, so to speak, training and nostalgia for past work.

[Note]

As I said a month ago, it is still in preparation. Now it's Iran's turn. For physics.

[Note]

And these ships and boats also carry nuclear weapons. Well, just in case.

[figwam]

Quote: Note

So they are planning a nuclear strike, there are objects deep in the mountains, you can't take others.

[Note]

Well, actually yes. We planned for a very long time. A huge work has been done, a lot of money has been invested. And the world is on the verge of very bad events. But there is still a possibility that the money was wasted.

I have a feeling that Trampula, towards the end, decided to strike at Iran. This will be a "New Year" gift for the new administration.
Again, he will show his loyalty to the Jewish lobby, which will certainly come in handy in the next elections ...

[Note]

People surprise me. On November 28, to the notes on the message of strengthening Iran's containment and the assassination of a scientist, I provided several comments on the advancing forces
US and Israel with the same nuclear weapons on board. On the development of an earlier plan for an attack on Iran and Iranian retaliatory measures. In general, a lot of things, and then I got cons and complete distrust on my calculations. Now these forces have approached and something else is expected, and I am interested in the reaction.

[Alex777]

Plus set.
But you'd better be wrong.

[Note]

Thank you. I myself hope I'm wrong.

[Dimide]

Jews also sent their boat

[NDR-791]

as part of Saudi Arabia's CTF-150 "Maritime Security" in international waters The Arabian Sea intercepted a cargo of drugs massively "over 1100 pounds."
How is it? Again, what and where I want, then turn around? Or is it so the overload of goods is disguised?

[Alien From]

Even this is easier to believe .....)

[rotmistr60]

The United States sent two cruisers and a nuclear submarine to the Persian Gulf

To paraphrase Peter 1 - from now on we will threaten Iran. Otherwise, this information is not perceived. And drugs in the Arabian Sea are at the request of the "ally" and yet the operation "Maritime Security" needs to be reinforced with something. ...

[OgnennyiKotik]

In any case, it carries a mini-submarine on its "hump".



An Israeli submarine has arrived there.

[NDR-791]

Okay, let's wish them seven feet ABOVE keel

[Note]

This is a device for searching for new and so far unknown for the USA and Israel active bottom mines of Iran

[Alex777]

This device is used to search for new and so far unknown for the United States and Israel active bottom mines in Iran.

Do you know exactly?

[Note]

I know that there is this situation. And the solution is not that simple. As for the device, the apparatus, then of course for the special operations forces it is used, the same forces and carry out various actions, including the installation or disposal of mines. And besides, there is a remote unmanned module for conducting reconnaissance raids in enemy waters and, if necessary, destroying minefields in various ways, including by detonating the module itself next to the object

[Note]

We begin to think in Hollywood clichés that the special operations forces carry out only landings and fight valiantly there. But most of the work is underwater and on water

[Doccor18]

... intercepted a consignment of drugs massively "over 1100 pounds."

Decent job for a 10.000 ton cruiser URO ...

[Vladimir_2U]

Well, the commander needs something to "powder the nose", enter the position. )))

So is the crew having a holiday today? I ought to look them in the eye. If like Navalny, then ...

Nobody believes these mantras for a long time ...

[tralflot1832]

Did they collect drugs from the crew's bedside tables? Is there an airlock on her hump? The Israelis, too, "young people" are making it easier for Iran to fulfill the threat. Guys, don’t worry, we’ll come up to you ourselves, prepare mines and torpedoes, the submarine, although German, is not killed.

[Boa kaa]

Quote: tralflot1832

The PL, although German, is that it is not killed.

If it's Dolphin, then with SLCM Popeye Turbo. Popeye flies 1500 km and carries an SBP. In addition, the Type 800 has an exit compartment for combat swimmers.
As you can see, vultures flock ... Therefore, no matter what happens ... extraordinary on the head of all "progressive humanity"
(as previously stated in such cases).
IMHO.

[Vadim Zhivov]

And maybe as with the DPRK .... Will carry it ????

[Boa kaa]

Quote: VadimLives

There are some differences in the situation.
The DPRK nevertheless showed its yaba, and, secondly, the Koreans do not threaten the existence of the Jewish state.
Iran has no nuclear weapons yet (!) And Iran openly threatens to do away with Israel. Therefore, Trump's son-in-law, Mr. Kushner, is very worried about his compatriots ...

[Vadim Zhivov]

Let's see ... Thank you !!!

It was not reported from whom the illegal cargo was seized.

From the American military, from Afghanistan we know.

No matter how they accidentally drowned, the sea is still, and the circumstances are different.

an American submarine carrying 54 Tomahawk cruise missiles,

Actually 154

Quote: Note

From dampness or what? The Americans' Tomahawks with nuclear warheads were destroyed a dozen and a half years ago. GB, warhead missiles and torpedoes were disposed of even earlier. They don't have nuclear weapons on their ships and boats (except for ballistic missiles)

[Note]

US aircraft carriers have bombs. Special parts on the Israeli submarine. And you are sure that you destroyed everything, probably watched the process.

[Dkuznecov]

Judging by the number of ships in the USA,
they already have not enough space in the ocean
waters to each other
do not collide. And on the way a hundred or two
unmanned boats.
And China, as out of the way, began its ships
rivet.
So they climb into any channel, into any pond.

[Nikon O'Conor]

Looks like the group entered the Persian Gulf for a long time. How else to explain such a large supply of stimulants that they took with them?

[Old26]

Quote: Note

Iran had its first charge ready in early spring this year.

And what did they make it out of? Surely 50/50 sand and camel shit? No need to invent. What Iran was able to produce is uranium with an enrichment of about 5%, albeit in greater quantities than they could have under the contract. It took Iran about 10 years to accumulate uranium of 20% enrichment in about 1/2 of what is needed to make the charge. Of the 25 centrifuges Iran has in 2016, under the agreement, only slightly more than 5000 remained. Even to increase the number of centrifuges to the number that they did not have enough. It takes time for uranium to go through the entire enrichment cycle: 0,75: - 3,5% - 5% - 20% - and a few more stages before they get uranium at 90% (weapon) frequency. And for you they have gained as much in a year as they could not have worked in 10 years ...

Quote: Note

It is not known how the charge works, what is used, plutonium, uranium, is also not clear.

Uh-huh! How it works - it is not known what is used - it is not known how many of them - it is not known, but they EXACTLY have charges. Isn't it funny yourself? How do they produce plutonium for the charge: And uranium ...

Quote: Note

There is such a concept of an analyst.

There is. But sorry, your statements about charges for analytics, alas, do not pull. As well as the fact that Iran does not have sufficiently accurate media. It is generally taken by you either from the ceiling, or sucked from the finger ...

Quote: OgnennyiKotik

In any case, it carries a mini-submarine on its "hump".

This, comrade, is not a mini-boat. The ASDS mini-boat is somewhat larger. And these are DDS modules (Dry Deck Shelter) to ensure the exit of combat swimmers in a submerged position

Quote: Note

Aircraft carriers MAY carry atomic bombs. But as long as there is no military action, an agreement is in force to remove nuclear weapons from ships. On an Israeli boat - quite possible. But in any case, the United States and Israel will not immediately "hammer" with nuclear charges. None of them wants to be the initiator. And there is no need to use nuclear weapons when you can use conventional

Quote: Note

The fact that the bombs were destroyed - I did not say that. He said that Tomahawk-type cruise missile charges had been removed and disposed of, and that the warheads of depth charges, missile warheads, torpedo launchers and atomic shells were removed and disposed of. Bombs, if necessary = will be delivered. And about the process of destruction - sorry, but I still trust our inspectors, you - most likely not

Quote: Connor Macleod

Well, with the air defense and the air force, Russia and China will help - we will train and arm.

As always "for free"? Do they have something to pay with the inflation that they have? And the time for training? Or let's say to the Americans: "Guys, wait, don't start a war until we supply Iran with aviation and air defense systems?"
