“The funny thing is, we did this during the first Cold War. It’s like when air power first started—we’re looking at all these different approaches to taking out aircraft. You’ve got literally ideas of like nuking the air going on at the time...China’s doing it so fast—like they released a boat, I think in January, that’s a commercial cargo ship that has containerized munitions. That means you have a shipping container that can launch anti-ship missiles, so you don’t know if that shipping container is on a normal cargo ship or if it’s actually a weapons platform.” Mach Industries Ethan Thornton

🚨🇺🇸 US NAVY IN PANIC: Meet Iran's ship‑killer missile. The US Navy is massing ships near Iran – but Tehran's Noor anti‑ship missile is built to make naval aggression painfully expensive. 🔸 IRGC's Noor is Iran's mass‑produced anti‑ship missile – any US ship in range is vulnerable. 🔸 Based on reverse‑engineered Chinese C‑802 with enhanced radar and range variants. 🔸 Produced independently under sanctions – a sustainable missile ecosystem hard to cripple. 🔸 Integrated across ships, coastal batteries, air platforms, and IRGC systems – complicating US naval suppression. 🔸 The US "armada" buildup may lie within reach of sea‑skimming, hard‑to‑jam missiles. In narrow seas, who truly holds the advantage – fleets or missiles? 🇮🇷🇺🇸🇨🇳

Iran doesn’t even have to compete in a ship-and-missile race — it has the key advantage: GEOGRAPHY. The US is fighting far from home. Iran is fighting on its own terrain — mountains overlooking the Persian Gulf, hidden missile sites, drone swarms and launch systems built into the land itself. What’s the point of having ships in the Gulf if they can be destroyed in no time by missiles hidden in the mountains? Watch LIVE on BitChute at 5:30 Moscow time (2:30 GMT):

President Trump just had the U.S. Navy BLOW A LARGE HOLE in the side of a 900ft Iranian cargo ship! A direct hit on the engine room of the TOUSKA after they refused orders to stop. The video is unrelated (from 2025), but it shows what it looks like when a ship that size is hit.

🚨 BREAKING: U.S. STRIKES IRAN’S DRONE CARRIER IN MAJOR NAVAL BLOW In a dramatic escalation of the war, U.S. Central Command has released infrared footage showing precision strikes on IRIS Shahid Bagheri, Iran’s flagship drone carrier. The vessel — a converted container ship designed to launch swarms of attack drones — was set ablaze during the strike, according to CENTCOM commanders. The Shahid Bagheri, commissioned in 2025, features a roughly 180-meter flight deck for UAV operations and was intended to extend Iran’s drone warfare capability far beyond its coastline. U.S. officials say the attack is part of the broader campaign targeting Iran’s naval forces and missile infrastructure under Operation Epic Fury. CENTCOM commander Adm. Brad Cooper said the ship — roughly the size of a World War II–era aircraft carrier — was struck and “is now on fire.” The strike marks one of the largest blows yet to Iran’s maritime capabilities, as U.S. forces continue operations aimed at dismantling Tehran’s naval and drone warfare capacity.

Let's take a moment and discuss the US seizure of MT Skipper off the coast of Venezuela. This ship sounds off several alarms for its past actions including ship-to-ship transfers of sanctioned cargo; sanctioned cargo movements; sailing into contested areas, and no clear insurance and flag of registry. What promoted the seizure specifically for the US was two loads of Iranian oil shipped to China in the first half of the year. The US issues an arrest order for the ship (yes, ships can be arrested). To execute this order, it has to be done by law enforcement, hence the US Coast Guard participation. The bonus appears that they waited for the ship to load a cargo of Venezuelan crude for Cuba before the seizure. The ship is underway and heading north.

The USS Abraham Lincoln isn't just a disaster for the sailors trapped on that ship. It's now a threat to our national security worldwide. To relieve the Lincoln, the Navy is replacing it with the USS Washington, that means we're stripping our Pacific presence, and our primary check on China, to clean up the mess this administration created with its impulsive, unplanned war in Iran.

🇮🇷🇺🇸How can a narrow waterway challenge the world’s most powerful navy? Iran has spent years turning the coastline into a layered threat—mines in the water, mobile missile systems on land, fast boats, and drones that appear with little warning.

‼️🇺🇸 💥USS Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer | Precision Strike Platform The USS Arleigh Burke class destroyer is one of the most powerful surface combat ships in active US Navy service. In recent operations, these destroyers have been used to conduct long range precision strikes using the Tomahawk cruise missile. How it works Arleigh Burke class destroyers are equipped with the Mk 41 Vertical Launch System. This system allows the ship to fire Tomahawk missiles directly from the sea without warning and from a safe distance. Tomahawk missile role The Tomahawk is a long range, land attack cruise missile designed for high accuracy. It can strike command centers, air defense sites, radar stations, and high value infrastructure deep inside enemy territory. Guidance is achieved through GPS, terrain matching, and advanced navigation systems. Why the US Navy uses destroyers for strikes Using destroyers for missile strikes provides flexibility and speed. These ships can operate close to conflict zones while remaining hard to detect. They allow the US to project power without relying on nearby air bases or large carrier groups. Strategic impact When a Burke class destroyer launches Tomahawk missiles, it sends a clear message of deterrence and dominance. These strikes are precise, controlled, and designed to limit collateral damage while achieving military objectives. Modern naval warfare is no longer just about ships at sea. It is about reach, accuracy, and decision making within minutes. The Arleigh Burke class destroyer represents that reality.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The U.S. has 15+ warships in the Middle East ready to enforce the blockade on Iran. Here's how it works... The USS Abraham Lincoln carrier is operating in the Arabian Sea as a base for aerial boardings. The USS Tripoli has Marines trained specifically for ship interceptions. Guided missile destroyers can launch helicopters, deploy boats, or just sail up alongside commercial vessels and force them to turn around. If a ship resists? Navy SEALs or special operations forces conduct hostile boardings. The U.S. doesn't even need to operate near Iran. They can intercept ships in the Indian Ocean or even the Pacific. Blockades are slow. But the economic pressure starts before a single ship is boarded. Source: WSJ

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Iran’s secret military method: “Soak Sponge” Imagine a super expensive U.S. warship: it has powerful radar and about 100 missiles. But once those missiles are gone… it can’t reload at sea. Now Iran exploits that: they launch a bunch of old, slow, cheap missiles. Basically junk. Easy to shoot down. But the ship has no choice. It must intercept every single one. So for a $10,000 missile, it fires a $2 million interceptor. Over and over. The ship becomes a “sponge”… soaking up cheap attacks with expensive ammo. Eventually, it runs out. And when it does, that $2 billion warship has to leave. No hits needed, just drain it. Source: loadedlore YT

The Senegalese Navy has successfully carried out its first ever test launch of an anti-ship missile. The launch was conducted from its Walo class offshore patrol vessel, targeting a decommissioned landing craft that was retrofitted with shipping containers to mimic a realistic naval target. The missile hit its mark with precision. The missile used was the Marte MK2/N, a short to medium range anti ship missile developed by European defence giant MBDA. It's specifically designed for littoral operations and low intensity naval warfare, making it well suited for the coastal security needs of navies like Senegal’s.

Following a night of intense U.S. airstrikes that decimated Iranian radar, anti-ship batteries, and naval assets, Washington has officially turned the page on diplomacy. This isn't just another retaliatory strike; it’s a clinical, aggressive dismantling of Iran’s ability to threaten global commerce. By hitting Bandar Abbas and Qeshm Island while simultaneously revoking oil waivers, the U.S. is effectively putting the Iranian economy in a headlock.

🇬🇧 The Royal Navy of the United Kingdom has officially adopted a new small anti-ship missile Sea Venom, which can now be used from AW159 Wildcat anti-submarine helicopters. According to the press release, each helicopter can carry up to four such missiles, allowing it to engage multiple targets in one sortie. The Sea Venom anti-ship missile was developed as part of the new Future Anti-Surface Guided Weapon program and complements the lighter air-to-air Martlet missiles responsible for self-defense. The missile is equipped with an infrared guidance system with a feedback channel, meaning the operator receives a real-time video stream and can adjust the flight of even several missiles simultaneously. This allows precise strikes not only on various corvettes, patrol ships, and small boats but also, for example, on full-fledged coastal targets. See the latest updates with us: NSTRIKE
