Really? I've been in US forces at sea in various places on the globe. We never 'knew it al." (We did keep track of a lot, though).
As I would have expected.
USN / FAF were flying overhead when this occurred.............. see the original media reports. Also doubt Omani's have zero capability for tracking what is around.
Your absense of evidence is correct BUT you also have to look at whose agenda it suits when it occurred.
US media claiming initially that the ships were targeted because 2 going to the US, nobody seems to want to explain how people would know when a tanker leaving it is heading to the US, master of vessel will have an idea but knows that can and does change all the time.
