Iranian Navy no match for US battle group - Russian military official

[Mercenary]

it is true but i don t think iran will face them with naval forces only
they can attack with every thing they got dont forget that it is their homeland
what if they targeted this battlegroup with all long range missiles and kamikaze jets and strikes with their air force and their navy at the same time no anti air defence in the world would stand to all this i am sure iran has trained some frogman or seals commandos

Their Long Range Missiles are based on copies of the failed North Korean Missile which crashed. So its hardly accurate.

USA has Missile Defense Shield which can shoot down most incoming missiles.

As for Kamikaze Jets. They will never get close. They will get identified and shot down 100 miles from the Carrier BattleGroups.

As for Frogman and Seals, how are they going to attack US Carrier Forces hundreds of miles from the Iranian Coast line?

they will shoot them down all of them ? if an attack with say 200 jets and kamikaze training jets and hundreds of missiles ? i dont think so

Yes.. 200 Fighters ( Kamikaze or, not ) will be shot down. Must not forget the highly advanced air defence systems on Carrier as well as the other ships of the group. Plus around 90 F/A-18 will also have their share of kills.

To put it simply, attacking an American CBG is a suicide mission with ~0% probability of success.

if you look at how we in the 70 s destroyed the eliat with torpedo vassals and destroying militry port with only 4 frogman so it can be done i think the real challange would be defending iran sky from us air force

And US forces will be like sitting ducks, right?

Firing missiles - Hezbollah style - does not gives Iran any advantage in war against a military power like USA. This is era of smart weapons. Accuracy matters most in modern conflicts.

Most essential Iranian military targets would be destroyed by US forces within short span of time. This will be another Libya in the making.

Iranian Naval forces fired missiles on US Naval forces during Operation Praying Mantis too. Didn't help them.

Whats strong there? F-5 copy jets? Zulqifar tank which cant even drive by itself? Flying stealth boats?


We did not attack Somali either, I guess its superstrong.


Its you who are threatning us with destruction. And why would we attack u especially when u are busy supporting psychopath regime in Syria that slaughters own people? Ur regime is deviding Arab world and destroying its unity.


woulda coulda shoulda

We won't destruct you if you don't attack us so don't worry!
And yes we are stronger than everyone with those things you mentioned!continue keeping your head under snow.As a matter of fact we have only those things!!!!!!!!!!!
You showed to the entire world your so called power in facing Hezbollah!You think it is hard to defeat some Arab countries?
Not only Iran but also Turkey is more powerful than you.

Yes Iran is so strong that in 8 years it could not defeat Iraq and USA defeated Iraq in 100 hours.

As for Hezbollah, Israel lost 148 Soldiers while Lebanon suffered over 1,000 deaths and half of Lebanon was destroyed. Some victory.

Iran is no match for USA. Infact, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan and even Saudi Arabia are all more militarily powerful than Iran.

This will be another Libya in the making.

iran is not libya libyan armed forces was a mess they wasnt given any ammo becouse the wise gaddafi fear of coup

i am sure iran has study the iraq battle well and they are expecting attack for years and they know what can hurt the US thier stratgy is well known and the amercan way of attack has not changed since iraq libya and bosnia as for hish tech era did you hear about the downed us spy drone ? that shows the level of iran army

Listen genius! Almost every Islamic nation brags like this until **** hits the fan. To USA - Iran is just like another Libya and Iraq in the making. Such is the disparity between the military capabilities.

And USA has vast experience under its belt too and is prepared for Iranian mission. Real experience.

And don't get fooled by a single drone based incident. Iraqi military forces managed to shoot down a U2 spy plane and a Predator drone prior to the invasion in 2003. And we know what happened afterwards when US became serious.

Stop living in fools paradise.

you seem to be sure and i am sure that iran will be something else we can argue for ages but let time be the judge

i want to prove that iran can handle modern warfare of course i know that one drone wont change anything in the war

Stop living in fools paradise.

i didnt insult you so please dont insult me

How Iran will be something else? You don't have a clue about US military capabilities.

Iran is all hype dude.

Read this clearly: U.S. admiral says forces prepared to confront Iran

You think that senior US military officials are joking? US military is already present in Hormuz region.

If Iran is really so strong then why it has not closed the Strait of Hormuz by now and why it allowed US military forces to maintain presence in this region?

Wake-up.

You proof is insignificant. And I am not insulting you but giving you some reality check. This is problem with many muslims and not just you.

4 Islamic nations already humiliated in WOT and some are still talking about challenging US.

i know very well what is the us army and i know what can they do but here is some facts
1 vitnam
2 afganstan
3 iraq
they destroyed their armys but they could never occupay them as for closing the strait us attack is not a joke and it should be the last option to provoke the us attack and if i was in charge i would have dont the same let them be the attacker and iran be the victum and like i said time will tell

And I am not insulting you but giving you some reality check. This is problem with many muslims and not just you.

the reality is the us power becoming weaker in time their respect and fear around the world fade just like the roman empire they only need one battle to show the world what they really are bot to mention the rise of china and russia even their european allays are not under their command anymore and maybe in time they will form a full european union and end nato

Sorry! You have no idea.

1 vitnam

Vietnam is OLD story. US has learned some valuable lessons from this conflict and reshaped its military accordingly. Gulf War 1991 is a clear example of how overwhelmingly powerful US military has emerged since the Vietnam debacle. US performance in this war even stunned China. Iraq was arguably the most powerful Islamic nation of this period and its military was destroyed within few days.

2 afganstan

Don't even get me started on this. You have no credible knowledge about Afghanistan and its challenges. Afghanistan is already a graveyard. However, US has built ANA from scratch which is amazing accomplishment IMO.

3 iraq

Iraq is actually a success story of US. Saddam is gone and insurgency have been contained. These were the two primary goals of US in Iraq. This is the same nation that Iran could not overcome in 8 years of destructive conflict.

I do not understand that why people even bother to mention Iraq in arguments.

they destroyed their armys but they could never occupay them as for closing the strait us attack is not a joke and it should be the last option to provoke the us attack and if i was in charge i would have dont the same let them be the attacker and iran be the victum and like i said time will tell

Check: US occupation of Vietnam lasted almost 2 decades.

Check: US occupation of Iraq lasted almost a decade.

Check: US occupation of Afghanistan will exceed a decade.

What else is occupation in your opinion? Insurgencies are not a sign of failed occupation. They always exist at certain level because they are supported by local populace.

the reality is the us power becoming weaker in time their respect and fear around the world fade just like the roman empire they only need one battle to show the world what they really are bot to mention the rise of china and russia even their european allays are not under their command anymore and maybe in time they will form a full european union and end nato

US power is not becoming weaker. This is a myth. Libya is very recent victim of US hegemony. Do some reading on Operation Odyssey Dawn. Libyan military would have crushed the rebellion, if NATO would not have interfered. And US is also prepared to deal with Iran.

Yes! The world is certainly getting more competitive now which is good thing.

China does not have imperialistic ambitions like that of US but it certainly has issues with some of its neighbouring countries. However, US is trying to encircle China through India, Vietnam, Philippines, Taiwan, South Korea and Japan.

And you are mistaken if you think that US has no influence over NATO. In almost every US imperialistic adventure, NATO plays a role in it, indirectly or directly.

I dont worry, you are doing what u are suppose to do: splitting the Arab world by supporting crazy Syrian killer.

And yes we are stronger than everyone with those things you mentioned!continue keeping your head under snow.As a matter of fact we have only those things!!!!!!!!!!!

IRAN STRONG!!1111!! It does not afraid to shoot student girls11111!!!! And use children as human waves.

You showed to the entire world your so called power in facing Hezbollah!You think it is hard to defeat some Arab countries?

His-blah is busy shooting Syrian protestors now and their leader hides under ground for 6 years already.

Iranian Navy no match for US battle group - Russian military official

According to a high-ranking Russian naval official, the combat potential of a US naval group that has entered the Strait of Hormuz is more powerful than the Iranian Navy and coastal forces in the region.
“The Iranian Navy's combat resources are incomparable with the potential of the US aircraft carrier group that has entered the Strait of Hormuz and are incapable of opposing it. No, certainly no," Deputy Navy Commander Adm. Ivan Kapitanets told Interfax on Thursday.
The aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis and escort ships have entered the area of an Iranian naval exercise east of the Strait of Hormuz.
Kapitanets said the US naval force would “smash” the Iranian coastal installations.
“The Iranian Navy is coastal and can protect the country's interests in the coastal waters. As for the Americans, they have full-scale oceanic naval forces,” the Russian naval commander said. “Therefore, there can be no comparison here. An aircraft carrier with its deck fighters and escort ships can smash Iranian coastal installations and surface ships.”
The Iranian naval commander disagrees.
Seyyed Mahmoud Musavi, the Iranian Navy’s deputy commander for operations, said that the Iranian Navy was ready to confront foreign naval groups that could enter the area of its military exercises, where it is holding maneuvers.
Despite the tense situation and militant rhetoric on both sides, Kapitanets believes both sides will show restraint.
"The US's actions are certainly provocative, but the matter is unlikely to go as far as direct military confrontation,” he said. “Certainly, the situation in the region is very complicated, but it is unlikely to grow into military actions.”
The Iranians say the exercises are within the norms of international law and should be respected.
"We are ready to confront the violators who disregard the security perimeters set for the drills in line with international law," Musavi said.

Is this what you call Persian comedy?
Fishing boates with machine guns is NOT a navy.
Well, maybe in Iranian standerds.

I dont worry, you are doing what u are suppose to do: splitting the Arab world by supporting crazy Syrian killer.

Finally!!!

One Us battle group is too vulnerable to the Iranian Navy and coastal defence forces.
people are confusing the US military might as a whole with a US battle group in faraway places, not even in open seas!!!
