Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz. Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL.

To be able to take a ship from new construction and watch it be built together by the ship yard, train with our team and bring into Boston Harbor for the first time, it's very amazing. I looked at the history books. I don't think we've had a submarine in Boston Harbor since sometime in the late '80s or early '90s.

I wanted our future aircraft carrier to follow in the footsteps of General de Gaulle. His life, his destiny. Our new aircraft carrier will be named France Libre. This name honours the memory of the men and women who stood up against barbarity.

The RFI calls for a "rapidly procured and installable Counter UAS (unmanned aircraft system) capability" that is "suitable for maritime platforms to detect, track, identify, and defeat airborne threats." Project TALON will combine a mix of "effectors" both kinetic and non-kinetic to counter the threats posed by the proliferation of drones, and is intended to complement current complex missile-based systems.

President Trump stated that Iran's naval forces were 'lying at the bottom of the sea' and warned that any ships approaching the blockade would be 'immediately ELIMINATED.' He compared the blockade enforcement to US counter-narcotics operations at sea.

Recovered CWMs continue to pose worker and food safety risks. Because of ocean drift, storms, and offshore industries, sea-disposed CWMs locations are largely unknown and potentially far from their originally documented dump site. The three incidents exposed at least six crew members to mustard agent, which causes blistering chemical burns on skin and mucous membranes.

WWII began with most naval powers still believing the battleship ruled the seas. Fleets were built around heavily armored ships with massive guns meant to destroy enemy navies in decisive surface battles. By the war's end, that thinking had changed dramatically. Aircraft carriers could strike targets hundreds of miles away, while submarines choked off supply lines across entire oceans.

The US military is broadly targeting Iran's naval combat capabilities, expanding strikes beyond just warships to mines, drone boats, and torpedoes, the admiral overseeing the Middle East operations said on Monday. Adm. Brad Cooper, head of US Central Command, reiterated in a video statement that eliminating Iran's naval threats is one of three military objectives of the American strike campaign.
