So Iran just attacked a civilian tanker? Whose country’s tanker is it?
>>
>>544156772
How is Iran so strong? I thought US was an unstoppable military power?

Fake news. Trump said all the mines have been cleared.

>>544156772
I don't think this is from a mine.

What if the tanker just did that?

Looks more like a missile/drone strike hit the engine room

Yeah not a mine. The thermal video starts after whatever hit would have been visible in flight.

oil tanker apparently reversed into a mine since the backend exploded and not the front
>>
>>544157356
>>544157417
I doubt it was a mine and I doubt Iran has weapons precise and powerful enough to cause that.
So more likely an American missile hitting an Iranian tanker.
>>
>>544156772
If it was a mine, how'd they know when to be filming, and where?
>>
>>544157597
Tbf, there are mines that can do this. For example, daisy-chained mines, ascending mines or torpedo mines. Mines that release drones (which might exist) should also be able to do this.
>>
>>544156772
Love to see it.

>>544157741
Hitting the side of a giant slow tanker is not hard. It could, for example, be a Nasir missile (130kg warhead).

sea mines tend to hit the start of the boat not incinerate the fucking crew quarters at the back
>>
>>544156772
It’s like in D U N C, when they blow up the spice harvesters.

Or Noor missile (160kg warhead)

I was waiting for this. A second tanker hitting a naval mine, after the VLCC was hit yesterday. Iran has re-mined the strait. They successfully put new mines in the lanes the US is using for oil convoys. With the navy they don't have.
>>
>>544157417
A large part of their military is just guys sitting on top of rockets and dronesin remote locations, and waiting for in-person orders. They've been preparing for this conflict for 20 years now.

> Oil tanker hits a sea mine

aren't these tankers supposed to be manned by US-military during the hormuz-stage of the run?
>>
>>544158009
>Detonation clearly below water line.
>>
>>544158326
It's very clearly above the waterline if that's your point.
>>
>>544156772
If it ran over a mine, why is the explosion in the stern?
>>
>>544158009
> old-WW2 versions.
multiple versions these days that even wait for initial boats to go-over before catching the n-th boat.
>>
>>544157417
Modern military is just larpers huffing their own farts. A bunch of shiny toys that end up being a wet fart
>>
>>544158382
My point is that Iran was able to re mine the lanes the US is relying on to get oil out of the gulf, and the US Navy was unable to prevent it, with two ships destroyed by mines in two days.
>>
>>544156772
Looks like a missile

Impossible. Trump said he controls the Straight of Hormuz. Trump has total control over the Straight of Hormuz.

It's obviously not a mine, why would there be a drone directly overhead to record the footage

It's an American missile strike

This ship was not destroyed by a mine. Four things giving that away.
1. Something is watching it.
2. The first explosion is above the waterline
3. It's at the stern
4. The thermal starts after the explosion cutting out the likely impactor.
>>
>>544156772
Vax status?
>>
>>544156772
If ten or twenty tankers a week are being destroyed, at what point do they run out of tankers? There's less than 1000 VLCC supertankers in the world.
>>
100% guarantee that wasnt a mine.
Thats bridge (control center) at the stern (rear) of the ship.
>>
>>544156772
Oh no, dead Indian crew members!

All kinds of crazy shit exists now, Iran is way a head in the mine game and a bunch of other games too

>sea mine
>hitting the back of the ship
that's not how sea mines work.
if this is used as a justification for an accelerated war then it was a false flag and it's a sloppy job mossad, if they run the sea mine narrative then it's forgotten about this was an iranian missile hitting a target that shouldn't have been able to be hit.

A couple more weeks maybe?

>Something is watching it.
Most mines have a security type camera mounted on the sky behind a plant or behind a vent grate in the sky's HVAC system.
If you're on any body of water and see a potted plant in the sky there's a fair chance there's a mine nearby and extreme caution is recommended.
>>
>>544158675
And wouldn't the water and nearby beaches be covered in oil? I haven't really heard anyone bitching about the environmental effects. Even that Greta Thornton cunt.

Gay mines are a thing now.

Yeah don't see any way around that. Seems strange.
