Even a US carrier group could not cope with an attack by 30+ small (tiny) attack boats, followed by several of those boats & 4 mini-submarines laying mines in the narrowist point of the Straight. That would effectively trap the US Fleet to be picked off at will. The crews of these small but deadly fast craft have a different mindset to us. They WILL die for their religion.
Please provide your evidence to support your claim that 30+ small boats can defeat a US carrier plus attendant support vessels.
