"I won't fire one unless he fires one ..."
"Fire one ..."
Our military is reporting that they shot down a missile that targeted the USS Laboon, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer. However, if the Houthis and Iranians keep lobbing enough missiles and drones, they are going to hit a US or British ship soon, and sink it. Then what is this Administration going to do? The Rules of Engagement are apparently just to shoot down incoming and not respond. Will they change the ROE’s for the ships, or wait until they are sunk. Some real sailor will decide to exceed his orders and blow up Yemen.

If they can sink one, they have a capability to sink them all. They have tens of thousands of missiles and drones including hypersonic missiles.

Some of these missile’s have gotten through to hit Container ships and they are still floating and under power. So I’m not sure if the payload they have is enough to destroy a US Ship.
