Which Gulf War?
In GWI we were using Pioneer UAVs off the Missouri and Wisconsin. They were the ones that Iraqi soldiers famously surrendered to.
I used to work with a Marine who was with one of the forward observer parties when they went into Kuwait; said they did take a bit of Iraqi artillery fire, but was able to call in some 16” on their batteries with the Pioneer.
The firing stopped.
I realize the Iowa class battleships are dinosaurs. I wonder how they would stand up to today's anti-ship missiles. The little information I found on the DDG-23 Richard E. Byrd's sinking after the Greek Navy stripped her surprised me. The ship seemed to take a lot of missiles before sinking.
