    Isn’t the US Navy’s whole posture that it’s the biggest, strongest Navy there is? They have the whole mantra, something like “the subs show themselves when they want to be seen.” Always foreshadowing with leagues of ships sailing the high seas, blowing up their old ships for target practice, blowing up projectiles towed by aircraft with their CWIZ and enough precision that it obliterates the projectile, each individual piece of the projectile, and then the towed cord? Their nuclear powered rail gun technology. All the stunts, all the money, all the time and detail… and now imagine Iran stunts on the US Navy. That would be more humiliating than the air dominance fiasco.

      US navy vessels including aircraft carriers have been mock-sunken by several NATO submarines.

      It even lead to resigning of admirals.
