No leading with a 48. It has its own sonar and acquires actively. It's almost impossible to escape an ADCAP. British torpedoes are very good too.

Israel has eliminated Rahman Makdam, head of the IRGC’s special operations department and the man reportedly behind the assassination attempt on Donald Trump before the 2024 election, according to Amit Segal.
President Trump was updated by Israel in recent hours.…
Which attempt?

It's possible, but isn't Georgia an SSGN? They'd be using it for Tomahawks, not hunting ships.

Does anyone have a pic of our fleet and how it currently looks over there? And if so, could you please post it?
It would be cool to see what the fleet looks like right now in all its glory.
🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Look at Tehran, it's getting HAMMERED by the US and IDF

An actual picture? They only get close enough for pictures when specifically doing a photo op.

The regime in Iran is getting desperate

The army just released a statement calling on retired generals and staff members to join the war efforts.
If they’re resorting to recalling retirees, it suggests they must be taking an extraordinary number of hits to their top ranks. pic.twitter.com/AHwu066n1o

"Quiet Death" isn't quiet once the fish is in the water. The sonar shack of Knox-class frigates has a hatch that opens port side just behind the forward launcher. The team always joked they'd be the first over the side once they heard that sound through the headphones or saw it on the scope.

Seeing reports online that a major US ballistics missile detection facility in Qatar has been destroyed. Did I miss that on here?

Noise does attract the 48 but it also pings with active sonar. That is why our subs shoot at a safe distance with a safety fence in place before the sub goes from passive search to active search - a reattack on the firing sub is possible. It acquires and doesn't GAF. So hitting the screws is really likely since they are noisy AF.
EDIT: Like Rapier mentioned above, we do control them with a wire so we can "Steer the weapon" if we want to. Once it acquires and goes active, we normally cut the wire and let it hunt on its own.
Satellite imagery from Planet Labs has now confirmed claims made by a number of Iranian-affiliated channels over the last few days, that an Iranian one-way attack drone, or other projectile, was able to successful impact and significantly damage the U.S. Space Force’s AN/FPS-132… pic.twitter.com/9w2OmMMEex

Maybe the IRGC is wanting Israel to gaza-fy Tehran. If for no other reason than IRGC are masters of human suffering. Anything to foment hate for Israel more so than the ayatollah. And make the build back cost so much greater - making the rule of the IRGC seem competent. Just a thought

Wow.

I mean, if that periscope type view is real, doesn't it appear that the entire stern of the ship is broken apart? The other images of the ship on fire don't seem to support that type of destruction.
Am I seeing the video incorrectly?
This is what our Mk-48 torpedoes do.

The Mk-48 torpedo sinks ships primarily by detonating a 650-pound high-explosive warhead directly underneath the keel rather than hitting the side. This creates a massive gas bubble that lifts the ship, breaks its back, and causes… pic.twitter.com/GHVrfwXE7x
