Except it probably was a decommissioned WWII era destroyer or mine sweeper sold to Yemen or Egypt.

If true, a Captain has just lost his boat & a heck of a lot of S$#% is about to hit a very large fan in the USN....

"submarine that had managed to reach the U.S. vessel without detection by radar."

Subs aren't found with RADAR, they're found with SONAR.

They can't even lie correctly.

If true, this is certainly worrisome. However, IRG is not exactly most reliable source of information...

Their submarines can't actually go UNDER the water, don't ya know.

Getting them to go under is the part they are good at. LOL

I'm not so good on hadji script.

Does this flag script translate to:
"Power comes from the barrel of a gun, ask our voters"?
or
"Dude, look at this cool gun I got from Russia, err, China, err, made it myself"?

" . . . . crew of a submarine that had managed to reach the U.S. vessel without detection by radar.

Very true. If the submarine is submerged, it won't be detected by radar. SONAR is a different deal and, unless the ship was docked, no deck watch was set and the crew asleep or on liberty (all situations that are in stricy violation of USN regulations), I believe that this is just more Iranian blather and muslim BS!!
