Hope the pilot switched to guns and didn't waste a missile on that POS.

How should he have handled the situation? would you prefer trump to just strike iran with no warning, not say anything at all or try to intimidate them with our military power? tell us wise one

that’s why Trump’s taking the Obama Doctrine, make a threat and do nothing.


I’ve had port calls longer than the Lincoln has currently been there

We’ll do something when it’s time. Last time I checked, the American Revolution lasted 8 years. Iranian protesters are on about Day 30.

Was it the stealth drone Obama “lost” to them?

The only problem I have with this.... is if they used a missile costing a million ish dollars to shoot down a $10,000 drone.
We need lasers/directed energy weapons installed on all of our naval battle ships.
Also, how did this drone get so close to an aircraft carrier???
The aircraft carrier should have an entire fleet protecting it....???
