TEHRAN, (BM) – Iranian authorities are well aware that the country’s naval forces do not have sufficient survivability and firepower to confront such a serious enemy as the United States directly. Therefore, he will use the geographical features of the Persian Gulf convenient for him for his own purposes.
The most vulnerable point at this point is the Strait of Hormuz, about 50 km wide at its narrowest point. This is an ideal place to organize ambushes using mini submarines, attacks using motor boats and high-speed boats, as well as the use of drones and anti-ship missiles.
