The Lynx helo was up. What do you think they are going to do? No shots were fired by the Iranians. The Lynx isn't going to violate Iranian airspace and HMS Cornwall isn't going to follow. Unfortunately it becomes a diplomatic incident.
A U.S. Navy spokesman has just said on TV that the Coalition forces showed proper and prudent restraint by not escalating the incident into a shooting match. His name was Commander Kevin Aandhal.
