damn those ghadir class subs are so tiny, yet they still have many functions and equipment
I love your Nation-specific Naval strategy videos. They are extremely useful to get people to understand the Naval capabilities professionally. Please continue making them, as you might be the only KZreadr I trust on military matters.
Iran for some time says it has ASBM. If they are anything like DF-21D then these will be more threatening than anything in the Iranian navy. BTW, the 9 missiles that struck the 2 Israeli airbases and the command center in the Golan Heights uses Beidou positioning.

As usual, this video was packed with information, however judging by some of the comments, some viewers failed to understand the importance of a shallow water navy, designed to operate in very shallow water. The relevance of such a navy is greatly enhanced by the quality of its missiles.

@TP-ie3hj
Ай бұрын
Depends on what you think is "well"? The Houthis have drones, air and sea provided via Iran. they have had no impact versus naval targets and have yet to get near a US navy ship. (yes still a threat) The Use by Ukraine against Russia has been against naval targets in a port not in active combat. The ships have been anchored or docked. Those that were not ,were moored in a harbor. Many dont know it but Ukraine had a navy and it was lost early on. When drones were used against ships at sea they did not fair well. You also only see the successful ones, no way to tell how many times they tried but failed. Could be 5% effective? Point is they have not been attacking ships at sea or on active combat patrols. Its like shooting a bird on a branch versus one in flight.

Despite your praises, the majority of ships look trashy and underarm. Speed boats are a dubious concept in war because, for example, the US Hellfires or Mavericks are more than enough to kill each of them. It is rather interesting how Iranians manage to achieve the long life of the former Shah's ships and aircraft if they are under severe sanctions.

Taregh class speedboat: $200,000 each. Hellfire missiles: $170,000 each. They are not that different. If you miss even once, or used 2 missiles on one boat, or the boat sinks in harbour and the repair it, you've fallen behind.

This concept is not new, the French had it in the XIX century more than a hundred years ago Soviets also, after the revolution built a large number of torpedo boats to protect the coast. This concept, in modern war, means a lot of losses against well-equipped adversaries, with dubious results as I said before. War games exist to see (in imaginary conditions where are you with your knowledge, and what you need to improve), but I am sure that in war conditions you can hardly endanger the US aircraft carrier with the force you have, I think on Iran.
