It would be nearly impossible for Iran’s navy to threaten the U.S. coast with warships, military experts said Wednesday.
Overnight Tuesday, Iranian state news quoted a commander as saying his country plans to have a “powerful presence” near the U.S. border.
A Pentagon spokesman responded Wednesday by questioning if Iran was capable of carrying out the stated plan.George Little told reporters that Iran has the right to send vessels into international waters, but “whether they can truly project naval power beyond the region is another question.”
