War in Iran should turn into at least a decade of horror, once we invade. My suspicion is that if Donald Trump starts a war he will will finish it as fast as possible...which means without mercy.

You don’t need to go into detail. I’m aware of most of the sensor techniques. The Iranian fleet would be quickly eliminated. I was commenting more generally. Electric boats in deep water like the north Atlantic coast or Pacific rim are still a difficult problem. Good that our allies have them. Not practical for us due to transit distances from CONUS.

You seem to have a very dull mind. Were you always that way, or is it the early stages of dementia?

Covert low intensity warfare by Iran IMHO.

Im wondering what kind of submarine captain would think ramming a moving oil tanker is a good idea. Seems like an efficient method of suicide to me.

it looks like collision damage from a submerged object. maybe the Iranians dragged a large rock underneath the tanker?

Looks like a bulbous bow rear ended the ship. If so it’s much ado about nothing.

My suspicion is that if Donald Trump starts a war he will will finish it as fast as possible...which means without mercy. Does Trump fight like GHW Bush, or his son? The father stomped the enemy, left them impotent, battered and bloody, and brought our boys home. The son embroiled us in decades of occupation.
Hopefully there is no war at all, and the people of Iran take matters into their own hands. Unfortunately, the Euro-Twits, along with Obama and his lingering shadow government lackeys continue to undermine Trump and prop up the Mullahs. That makes war much more likely.
Unfortunately, war would only push the Persian people back to the Mullahs in opposition of the evil foreign invaders.
