🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran’s Moudge-class frigate IRIS Dena was reportedly sunk by the U.S. submarine USS Charlotte in March. The Dena was one of Iran’s more modern warships, making the loss a notable hit to its navy. Turns out surface ships and stealth submarines don’t exactly make a fair matchup. Source:... show more

🇺🇸🇮🇷 The first submarine kill on a warship in decades happened in silence A Virginia-class submarine tracked Iran's frigate IRIS Dena through the Indian Ocean using passive sonar. One Mark 48 torpedo at 50+ knots. Hit the stern. Ship gone in minutes. 180 crew aboard. Sri Lanka rescued 32 survivors. The sub was never seen, never heard, and slipped back into the deep before anyone knew what happened. This is the kind of warfare Iran has no answer for and no defense against.

IRIS Dena was a ~1,500-ton Moudge-class frigate & let’s be clear about capabilities. This was a lightly equipped surface combatant with basic hull-mounted sonar, no towed array, limited ASW envelope, and certainly not designed to counter a modern nuclear attack submarine operating at advantage. If a Virginia-class submarine is engaging from telescopic depth and decides to launch a torpedo, the engagement is already asymmetric. The surface ship is reacting late if at all. The video shows no visible defensive manoeuvres, no hard turns, no decoy deployment which strongly suggests the crew was not expecting an engagement. Sinking a ship that is afloat, unaware, and technologically outmatched is not some extraordinary feat of naval brilliance. It is what happens when one side controls the underwater battlespace and the other lacks layered anti-submarine warfare capability. Claims of dramatic “first hit” superiority sound impressive but to anyone who understands naval warfare, this was a mismatch from the start.

Mehdi Hasan claims that the U.S. military’s actions against an Iranian warship makes them worse than those of the Nazis during World War II. He cited the March 4, 2026, incident in which the U.S. Navy submarine USS Charlotte torpedoed and sank the Iranian frigate IRIS Dena in the Indian Ocean near Sri Lanka, allegedly allowing the crew to drown without rescue efforts from the Americans. A now-deceased Iranian sailor on board reportedly called his father shortly before the attack, stating that the American submarine had issued two warnings to abandon ship, but the Iranian commander ignored them and refused to let the crew evacuate. Hasan described the event as a “moral abomination” and “tactically stupid,” asserting that “even the Nazis” collected survivors from the water after sinking ships, while the U.S. did not. In reality, international maritime law places primary rescue responsibility on nearby surface vessels or coastal states like Sri Lanka, which did rescue 32 survivors. Submarines typically do not surface for rescues if it endangers their stealth and safety, especially in a conflict zone. And besides, why would they? Also worth noting that the Nazis torpedoed the hell out of Allied ships, including merchant vessels without any military support.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 There are more than 15 U.S. warships in the Middle East right now, and every single one of them can stop a ship. There are aircraft carriers, assault ships, destroyers, and even submarines that don't show up on anyone's radar. On board: Marines trained to take ships by force and Navy SEALs who've already intercepted a fleeing tanker in the middle of the Atlantic. Good luck picking which one to run from. Source: Barron’s

🇺🇸💥U.S. and Israeli Strikes Cripple Iran's Submarine Force: The Iranian submarine fleet has been largely neutralized by U.S. and Israeli forces during Operation Epic Fury. All three of Iran's largest Soviet-era Kilo-class submarines are believed to be out of commission, according to analysts from the International Institute for Strategic Studies. They reported that two were already non-operational before the conflict began, while the third was likely destroyed while docked at its berth. At least one Fateh-class coastal submarine was confirmed sunk by U.S. forces near Bandar Abbas. U.S. Central Command described it as Iran's "most operational" submarine, now disabled with a hole in its hull. The status of many indigenous midget submarines remains unknown, though they have been primary targets for U.S. strikes. Recent sources indicate Iran is now largely relying on remaining smaller assets like speedboats, midget submarines, drones, and uncrewed surface vessels after major surface combatants were targeted. 📌The footage is dated, but it captures a Fateh-class submarine leaving the harbor:

🚨🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says its anti-ship ballistic missiles struck two U.S. Navy Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, USS Delbert D. Black (DDG-119) and USS John Paul Jones (DDG-53). According to the Iranian military statement, the missile attack caused “significant damage” to both American warships. The IRGC presented the strikes as a direct hit against major U.S. naval assets. 🔥 If the claimed damage is substantiated, this would mark a serious escalation in the U.S.-Iran confrontation and demonstrate a direct threat to American surface combatants operating in the region. For Washington, even limited damage to Arleigh Burke-class destroyers would carry major operational and political consequences.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THE U.S STRIKES IRAN? Iran’s navy and air force wouldn’t stand a chance against the firepower rolling in with the USS Abraham Lincoln and its fleet of destroyers. But Iran knows that. That’s why they don’t rely on ships and planes. Their real threat is in missiles, cheap drones, and proxy fighters across the region. If the U.S. strikes, Iran won’t try to win a fair fight, they’ll hit back with chaos. Missiles at bases, drones at oil fields, militias firing off in every direction. Source: Geomapstories on YT

There is a lot of confusion right now about the sinking of the Iranian warship IRIS Dena and the role of the United States submarine in this incident. So let’s understand what most likely happened. First, the attack took place in international waters near Sri Lanka in the Indian Ocean. Second, the submarine involved was most likely a US nuclear powered attack submarine already operating somewhere in the Indian Ocean region. Many analysts believe it could have been operating from the broader operational area around Diego Garcia, a strategic military base used by the United States and the United Kingdom in the Indian Ocean. Unlike conventional submarines, nuclear submarines can stay underwater for months, because they do not need to surface for fuel. The only real limitation is food and crew endurance. So the submarine could easily remain in the region, quietly tracking naval movements. Now here is the timing part. The Iranian warship IRIS Dena had recently visited Visakhapatnam in India to participate in a multinational naval event hosted by the Indian Navy. After the exercise ended, the ship left Indian waters and began sailing west toward the Arabian Sea. If the submarine was tracking it, the most logical moment to strike would be after the ship left the exercise area and entered open international waters. That is when the torpedo strike reportedly happened near Sri Lanka. Now the next question people are asking is whether this was legal. Under the law of naval warfare, if two countries are in an armed conflict, a military vessel of the opposing side becomes a legitimate military target. Warships can be attacked even in international waters. In this case, the target was not a civilian vessel. It was a military warship of the Iranian navy. So from a naval warfare perspective, this kind of strike is generally considered permissible during active hostilities.
