It’ll take one kill.

Whoever CTG is for the first convoy (s) will need a lot of luck. IRGC will throw everything at this.

Ford doing a Suez transit. Couple of possibilities:-
CDG and additional assets around Cyprus are now considered sufficient to manage threat.

It’s less about Ford and more about her escorts as part of a potential Hormuz op. IE team up Ford and Lincoln and free up some DDG.

Decanter Recommended Explore Ukrainian wines, which received Decanter World Wine Awards (DWWA). These wines definitely enhance your wine collection or could be a great present for special occasions

Got me. It’s interesting she was allowed to pass. IRGC have eyes everywhere.

That’s interesting. Ran the Straits AIS on. So with IRGC blessing. Which would be adding insult to injury really.

Tanker shipping costs, cost of bunker fuel out the Far East, and lack of consumer goods (IE Food) moving through the Straits, are ones to watch.

When you’ve been three years in the trenches with UAV’s, killing Russians, and the UAE wanna put you up in the Royal Mirage so you can start killing Iranians…

Sorry not sorry.

I’m glad I’m out.

I’m furious if they asked I’d go back.

And it disgusts me this is what we have put up with.

Setting aside the rights and wrongs of this war? This will have been extremely grim for everyone onboard, and anyone finding it funny has a problem being an adult.

It’s a grim business. It’s better them than you. And it’s not a subject of amusement.

Looks like an initial fire aft. Then either subsequent hits fwd or the fire simply got away from them.

Not buying the USV tale except for one thing.

Not the first Russian merchant ship to sink in the Mediterranean.

Supposition:-There’s a merchant vessel with an SBU team in the Med, carrying USV’s, probably with a UAV recce capability, hunting Russians.

@jonboltonsmustache.bsky.social

Figure nine DDG plus CG cutters and a number of MCMV’s for this?

And they cannot take any carrier escorts away.

So….three weeks to get Hormuz force together and in theatre?
