While we can certainly bomb Iran, by my calculations we’re approximately 10 Carriers short of what’s needed to serious affect their nuclear program.
I love to comment on people who ain’t got a clue...
Back in the late ‘70’s, I was abord the JFK. For some reason we were floating around cuba. We had went to battle stations the night before. I was walking through the hangar bay and noticed hardy any aircraft there.
I made my way to the flight deck.
Every friggin aircraft that was capable of flying was fully loaded and ready to go!
My thought was, “My God, we don’t need a nuke to sink cuba”...
Same thing applies with iran...
We don’t need 10, we only need 1....
Who needs 10 carriers when Diego Garcia is in close proximity.
