Iran Practices Military Attacks on Mock U.S. Aircraft Carrier

Iran’s Revolutionary Guard launched large-scale naval and air defense drills near the Strait of Hormuz today. Dozens of speedboats swarmed a replica of a U.S. aircraft carrier.

State TV showed footage of missiles fired from the coast and the fast boats striking the mock U.S. aircraft carrier.

Last month the Guard’s navy chief, Adm. Ali Fadavi, said on state TV that his force is capable of sinking American aircraft carriers.

“American aircraft carriers are very big ammunition depots housing a lot of missiles, rockets, torpedoes and everything else,” the Guard’s navy chief, Adm. Ali Fadavi, said on state television. A direct hit by a missile could set off a large secondary explosion, he added.
