SAUDI ARABIA SAW THIS SHIT COMING 45 YEARS AGO.
The US Navy just ran the same play.
In 1984, the USS Stark got hit in the Persian Gulf and nearly sank.
In 1988, the USS Samuel B. Roberts hit an Iranian mine and almost went down.
The US spent 40 years studying exactly how Iran fights in the Strait — small boats, missiles, drone swarms, saturation attacks designed to overwhelm a single ship.
So when the USS Truxtun and USS Mason crossed Hormuz yesterday under a "sustained barrage" of Iranian small boats, missiles, and drones —
They weren't improvising.
They had AH-64 Apaches overhead.
F-16 fighters on station.
Over 100 aircraft total.
CENTCOM destroyed 6-7 Iranian boats before they got close.
Zero US vessels struck.
Both destroyers crossed.
Two commercial ships crossed with them.
Iran has been running the same attack playbook since 1987.
The US spent 40 years building the answer to it.
Yesterday, they ran the drill for real.
