"The location of the sinking will likely create a serious headache for the Iranian Navy and IRGC-N. It is just outside the harbor entrance to Bandar Abbas, near to the main approach channel," Forbes added. "The water there is approximately 45 ft deep, which is shallow. This makes it worse for Iran because it cannot be left to sink. It is so shallow that other ships face a very real risk of catastrophic damage if they sail over it. In fact, at least as-of a couple of days ago, it was partly above water. This is a serious shipping hazard."

America "Hold my beer"

Iran "Hold my Chaiee"

Well, that's embarrassing.

Chaiee?

I'm suspicious the Iranian navy is more inept than Joe Biden.

Oops

What was it doing there?

It's their boat.

This is about six months after they accidentally shot down a commercial airliner and two months after they accidentally fired a missile at their own navy vessel.

Their missile and targeting tech is actually pretty good, they just can't seem to find anyone capable of using them properly.

Well someone's gonna die for that mistake.

Which has ever been the real catch-22 with countries just "getting" some major power's equipment or buying it.

Its one of the reasons the Chinese purchase and refitting of Russian carrier and their own may have more to the story in the end if put to the test. Remember how the Russian one breaks down now and then. Operating carriers takes the long experience we and the Japanese perfected along with the British.

China has more than enough scale and depth that they probably had learned what is necessary, but you see this problem especially through the Mideast when they attempt to deploy military equipment bought from Russia and China. It is one of the many reasons the wars with Israel go the way they do sometimes regardless of the figures on paper.

That being said, you have to admit it is an impressive mock-up and good testing platform by all appearances. Looks like they did too much damage to the port side in last exercise. and progressive flooding caused it to heel over and sink en-route to dock.

It's tea. The Iranians drink it. Tastes like **** and smells even worse.

ROI in that money Obama gifted them is really paying off.

Yeah, they probably should have just stayed in their bunker.
