Iran’s Spy Boat TARGETED U.S. Warships Then America OPENED FIRE

About this video

Max analyzes recent U.S. military operations in the Gulf of Oman where Navy helicopters destroyed an Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps surveillance boat after evacuating its crew. He attributes the U.S. actions to dismantling Iran’s low-tech spy network of fishing vessels used to target commercial and military ships after Iran’s radar coverage was degraded. Max also covers Ukrainian drone strikes against Russian helicopters and fighter jets, and discusses Houthi rebel attacks in the Red Sea region.

Key takeaways

• Max describes U.S. forces destroying an IRGC wooden surveillance boat with Hellfire missiles after evacuating the crew, which he says was part of Iran’s covert maritime spy network
• According to Max, Iran shifted to low-tech boat-based surveillance after losing radar coverage, attempting to replicate China’s tactics in the South China Sea
• Max recounts Ukrainian forces using drones to destroy a Russian Mi-28 attack helicopter in flight and strike six Su-34 fighter jets on the ground at a Russian air base
