The US Navy decided to
conduct live fire training exercises in the North Persian Gulf. I am sure we stayed just outside the territorial waters of Iran. We were making a point that we have big boats and big guns, and big aircraft.

operations have been ongoing throughout March and April.
“This is yet another successful example of our surface forces being able to leverage cross-domain capabilities in order to enhance lethality against maritime threats

What would the US do if Iran's navy, if they had one, decided to hold a live fire training exercise 13 miles from our coast? I think the response of Iran was muted sending a few speedboats to loop around our ships.
Time to wag the dog?
