Do we know how much damage the Lincoln sustained?

Concerns me that they were able to get to one of our carriers…

They did not hit the Lincoln.




lol … translation…. We fired a missile towards the Mediterranean

FWIW, pretty sure Lincoln is in Arabian Sea or Gulf of Oman. The Ford is in the Med.

Is.it the Ford that got to experience massive sewer backup on the way? Like feet deep of sewage in the hallways?

Supposedly, but the video attributed to it was a fake (old) pic/tweet, just like the one about it pulling into Haifa. Tons of fake crap getting posted

Trump needs to agree to talk while continuing the operation and only stopping when the regime leaves and the country goes back to the Iranians who want life pre 1979

Hopefully the deal is more than zero enrichment, but full removal of their government in exchange for their lives. Maybe they can keep their cash too.
No new regime, no deal. A government of mullah cannot be trusted

I wonder if we have someone in mind we'd like to negotiate through. Killing so much of the leadership could complicate things otherwise, unless we really are betting on a full on revolution.

Iran; we have no real active command and control of drone/missile launch teams. They have just been told to do their best to kill our neighbors.



Is that seriously real? Why would you admit that? That effectively means they're routed.

Because they are routed and they don't want their neighbors attacking them

everybody deals with stress differently. dark humor is a very big part of military service and helps them deal with the stress of the situations they face

Almost every IED or firefight that we were in, we laughed. You have to get the fire out some how. The only time we wouldn't is if one of our own was down, but there's no way any of those people knew if that got one of them or not. There's nothing wrong with what they did.

If we stop, we will be right back here in the next 2-7 years. Finish the job.

Where is the intel connecting an actual strike on the carrier group? I heard about the targeting of with limited numbers but nothing else.
Also, wouldn't Iran require active intel from China on the location, speed, and heading of the carriers? If that is the case, China would be actively involved which i do not see happening.

I was going off a link posted from X. I keep forgetting that while X can be useful, it can also be full of sheet.

Good to know our military is still leaps and bounds beyond what Iran can throw at it.


Yeah, worth the quick read. No one close…

Interesting because most of us have probably read over the years that Iran would be challenging in the water because their little fast attack boats would give our larger ships hell. I believe I've see war game outcomes where this was the case.

That all seems to have been bull***** I was always skeptical anyway. If you can't get your boats out of port in the first place, then there is not much threat on the water.

That could be true if the ships were in the Persian Gulf, but they're not, they in the Arabian Sea, much more room to maneuver and in open conflict, the gunboats can't get close without being destroyed.

I assume that this is our guys but why is that one guy laughing after the missile hit and I dont care If I am out in the desert I am not going to be laughing about a missle that my defense system missed


Are am I not reading this correctly if I am mistaken I am sorry and please explain


As others have posted, tense situation and likely a way of letting off steam. The missile didn't appear to hit anything of consequence other than maybe some porta potties. The laughter seemed to be along the lines of "you missed, morons!!"

Bringing the French into it is a poor choice, as they have probably the most competent euro military

But is attacking the French vessel really bringing them into it? I doubt Macron has much appetite to respond in any way other than a strongly worded letter or speech.

Edit, I will put that on politics.

Edit 2: surprised to see the Brits supporting the Qatari's here, but they signed a contract to do so I guess last year. Clever way for Starmer to be quasi useful I guess without supporting anything Trump does.

I worked on the missile program that got downselected to the PAC-3 in 1993. I'm surprised it missed.
