"The Americans, and the entire world, know that the American Navy is one of our targets, and it will take us 50 seconds to destroy every US warship," Jafari added, the Jerusalem Post reported.


Wonder if they know we fire back.

Missiles that can fly 5 km. That would be a big deal in the Revolutionary War.
I'm sure the US navy is carefully considering this new threat

"American aircraft carriers are very big ammunition depots housing a lot of missiles, rockets, torpedoes and everything else," Navy chief Admiral Ali Fadavi said on state television, as reported by AP. He added that a direct missile strike on a vessel such as the aircraft carrier could set off a large secondary explosion.

You can tell how this guy became an Admiral.

It's when he adds that "and everything else" you can really tell that guy knows his things and stuff that can explode and kaboom and all that.

Pleasse, that laser blew up a small can filled with explosives. The laser is not "deployed" per se, as much as it is undergoing tests on the USS Ponce, a retired LPD built in 1966 that has been used by the navy as a testbed for various weapons and concepts for years, a purpose the retired ship was found suited for.That weapon is 6 commercial welding lasers grouped together, it's nothing special,and the technology will be years before it's mature, and actually "deployed" that is if there is enough money left after the F-35 is paid for, which it doesn't look like there will be, as every defense program is already being cut or curtailed to fund it.

As for the Iranians, just be glad they didn't hack and highjack our target drones and land them , like they did with the last CIA drone we flew over their airspace.

LMAO....you do realize that just pulling shit out of your ass does not make it true?
About the only thing you have correct is the fact that the Ponce is used at times as a test bed ship for weps.

It's one thing for us to have pretty things. It's another thing to actually have the strength to use them. I've no doubt that Iran does.

"Strength to use them"? We use good sense in not blowing things up on a whim. But we can blow shit up with the best of them when necessary.

I think the idea that the Iranian Navy built a mock up "Nimitz supercarrier" and bombed it, then claimed they could destroy any USN ship in 50 seconds is hilarious. Sue me.
