Iran missile strikes own ship, kills 1 sailor, hurts others
May 11, 2020 Updated 4 min ago
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — State television says a Iranian missile struck a naval support ship during an exercise in the Gulf of Oman, killing at least one sailor and wounding others.

The report Monday said the Konarak, a Hendijan-class support ship, was too close to a target during an exercise Sunday. It had been putting targets out for other ships to target.

It said the missile struck the vessel accidentally.

Iran regularly holds exercises in the region, which is closed to the strategic Strait of Hormuz, the narrow mouth of the Persian Gulf through which 20% of the world’s oil passes. The U.S. Navy’s 5th Fleet, which monitors the region, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

That's a shame.

I think their national anthem is the Benny Hill song.....

Ahhhhhhh......hahahahahahahahahahahaha...

Fuck you Whore Mooz Bitches.

Good to know their live fire exercises are real.

BBC news says 19 dead so far admitted-to and 15 injured.

Sounds a lot more than a minor event to me.

'Hey, Ali, I'm towing this target, not pushing it!!!'

Good to know that they are just as good at shooting the shit out of their own people, as well as shooting down civilian airliners. If we gave them enough ammunition they could probably sink everything that they had above the surface.

Kind of surprised they or the MSM didn’t spin this differently...

Trumps fault. LOLOLOLOL!

Is there any chance we have the ability to take over their missile's onboard navigation system?

Next up, a true Wile E. Coyote event. The missile goes straight up. And right back down to its firing position.

kramden -- how 'bout you delete the preceding post, before you get the thread locked?

“40+ dead due to COVID-19 on Iranian Navy ship” will be The NY Times and CNN coverage.

Hit one of these with their copy of a Chinese copy of an Exocet.



Apparently, owners’ manual did not cover command and control. Or maybe they had a wonky tranlation from Mandarin to Farsi...

Wonder amount of damage this missile would do to a chinese 052 or 055?

Well now the Iranians know the answer to the question "If we copy the Chinese copy of the Exocet, what could possibly go wrong?

Is that what's known as an unguided missile?

The U.S. Navy’s 5th Fleet were to busy wiping tears of laughter from their eyes to comment.

Mc Hallah's navy......

A target deployment vessel, while deploying targets, was targeted?
