Houthis Attacked the WRONG Aircraft Carrier! Then This Happened…

About this video

Max presents a hypothetical scenario set in April 2025 in which Houthi rebels launch a coordinated attack of missiles and drones against the USS Harry S. Truman carrier strike group in the Red Sea. He describes how the Houthis allegedly operate from underground mountain command centers in Yemen and receive equipment from Iran. Max then explains how the carrier strike group’s layered defense systems—including EA-18G Growlers, Aegis cruisers, destroyers with vertical launch systems, and close-in weapon systems—successfully intercept all 28 incoming threats in this speculative engagement.
