| Yemen strikes Truman carrier and Israeli target in occupied Palestine | |
| 2025-04-29 | |
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... i Armed Forces issued the following statement: ''During the past hours, the American enemy committed two massacres: the first in Sana'a and the second targeting a shelter for In response to this aggression and the massacres against civilians, the Armed Forces targeted the American aircraft carrier ''Truman'' and its escorting warships. A joint operation was carried out by the Naval Forces, the Drone Air Force, and the Missile Force using several cruise and ballistic missiles and drones over the past hours. As a result of the festivities and confrontations, the aircraft carrier was forced to retreat and move away from its previous position, heading toward the far north of the Red Sea. The Yemeni Armed Forces will continue to target and pursue the aircraft carrier and all hostile warships in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea until the aggression against Yemen ceases. In support of the oppressed Paleostinian people and their brave fighters, the Drone Air Force also carried out a military operation targeting a vital Israeli site in the occupied Ashkelon area using a drone of the ''Yafa'' type. We continue, relying on Allah, to prevent Israeli navigation in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea. We continue, trusting in Allah, to confront and resist American aggression. We continue, with confidence in Allah, to support and assist our steadfast brothers in the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... Strip until the aggression against them stops and the siege is lifted.'' | |

| #2 $70M Navy F-18 fighter jet falls into Red Sea off the USS Harry S Truman |

| #1 Yep - they missed again but not by much this time. Apparently the Truman made a hard turn (drifting in effect) to avoid a Houthi missile that had made it through most of the defensive envelope. The USS Gravely knocked it down using their CIWS/Phlanx system roughly 200 meters off the starboard side. The abrupt maneuver led to an F/A18 ($72m) and the attached tug sliding off into the sea. That's the second F/A18 lost so far. In December the USS Gettysburg had a friendly fire incident knocking down an F/A18 while defending against Houthi missiles. If we keep putting ships in harms way there will eventually be naval losses. It's all very easy to disparage the Houthi forces, but the US also disparaged the Vietnamese and Afghan military as well. While they took disproportionate losses, how many are we prepared to accept? It's not like the navy is producing ships as quickly as the Chinese are. |
