Iran is itching for a confrontation...remember the 1988 incident where the Vincennes “mistakenly” shot down an Iranian airliner? IIRC, after numerous attempts, the ship could not contact the flight, shoots, we apologized, send 200 million in funding to secure further harassment, and 13 years later the exact same strategy is employed in NYC; civilian airliners... And don't delude yourself with National allegiance Saudi or Iranian, the bottom line is rag head muslims.
I just did a Google=fu on the event. It’s a well crafted PR story of faulty equipment compounding human error and laced with other plausible possibilities. Arguable defensible details and we caved…
The Captain (imo) took one for the team.
Iran is not playing any games, its rehearsing and is deadly serious. We are going lost ships and the Act of War will go unpunished. Propelling Iran into the regional power broker it is determined to be. That’s the end game here.
