And if Hormuz was opened tomorrow it would still take a year for our TTT Navy to clear it.

Meanwhile Russia alone has 9 modern minesweepers and the Chinese have even more than that. We are quite literally the #3 navy now.

But we continue to field a bunch of 50 year old carriers and pretend like they matter in a near peer fights all while none of them dare get within 500 miles of Iran.
