Iran Super Thread- Merged

Another better angle. I hope the pilot bought a lottery ticket after this, holy crap.

"The F/A-18 makes a left-hand turn before the missile comes into view. It is unclear if the pilot was aware of the threat and maneuvered to avoid it or was unaware of the missile. There is no obvious sign of infrared countermeasures being deployed, although BOL IR-type countermeasures can be harder to see in daylight."

Navy F/A-18's Close Call With An Iranian SAM Highlights Remaining Risks To Epic Fury Aviators
 
Does not look like canned food, some sort of cluster munition?

I assume it went something like this:

This is how far out of touch with reality Trump and his cabinet is right now.

Trump says Iran let 10 oil ships through Strait of Hormuz as a 'present' to U.S.
Trump says Iran let 10 oil ships through Strait of Hormuz as a 'present' to U.S.

Trump says that Iran ‘gave the US a gift of 10 oil tankers’ going through the strait of Hormuz this WEEK.
As a point of reference over 150 ships A DAY go through there, over just over 1,000 ships a week.
Allowing 10 to go through is 1% of tie weekly total.

EDIT: Unreal that the reporter decides NOT to give any reference as to how many ships typically cross the strait daily or weekly. The reporter makes an obvious choice to not report on that to put context to the number of 10 ships.

Pakistani ships, which were never being stopped by Iran to begin with. Just like the Chinese ones.
