In the Persian Gulf during the Iran-Iraq War, the Tanker War reaches its climax. When the USS Samuel B. Roberts is hit by an Iranian mine, the US Navy is deployed to region in a show of force to deter Iranian military action against shipping. Tensions reach boiling point, and a one day naval shooting war between the US Navy and Iran ensues.

The epitome of FAFO
🇺🇲: Ez!
That dive bomb attack
god dammit i love america
the soviet destroyer crew:
🍿👁👄👁📸
FAT ELECTRICIAN got me here after his story 😂
The Iranians broke 2 of americas most important rules: don’t mess with our oil and don’t touch our boats 😂
Weird that Iran lays mines so far from their shores.
Could be a false flag
Point taken, dont mess with A6 Intruders or the Samuel B. Just be there to "Take picture for history"
Taffy 3
I want to be able to shit on ads so bad but we all get different worthless ads
more like 8 hr of work..
"make things proportional"
obliterates half of iranian navy. for 1 american destroyer
Never knew about this, you just earned a new subscriber.
US Navy to Iranian Navy: F around and find out.
12:39 what about the fish 😢😢
Almost had to laugh out loud at the amount of overkill used by the americans against those iranian ships.
4:10
The image is implied to be a picture of the two Iranian ships being described, yet they have an American flag?
Are those ships similar to the Sahand and the Sabalan?
Don't fuck with murica
Dang you almost feel bad for the Iranians in this one……almost
So they haven't learned from any of the several incidents
Don't fuck with the oil
It's absolutely insane how much firepower those A6s were carrying. Langston: "Well, he shot at me." singlehandedly sinks frigate.
I like that let me get a stab at it
A-6 pilots decided they are the main characters
They fucked around and found out 😂
8:52 Best part.
This events unfortunately ended in US downing an Iranian commercial airliner killing 290 people onboard
"Take pictures for history"
The best result for him is if Iran fires on his ship and he get to join in.
The alright result for him is he gets pretty pictures.
Whats not stated is that the first bomb dropped on the 2nd frigate, went straight down the smokestack. Thats why the boat stopped dead in the water.
Just dont touch americas oil, or you will find out what they use it for.
Definitely a hood classic.
I watched this because of the fat electricians video.
5 direct hits * the one ship that didn't fire a missile " hey guys not fair " * fires a 6th missile at the burning hulk of a ship and still misses
پرچم بالاست 🇮🇷
تا آخرین قطره خون پای ایران ایستادیم !!!
Iranians thought they could challenge US Navy ships with their few ships.. Such a narrow mind. This is what happens when leaders and people are driven by unwanted religious fanatical spirit. Everyone should know that it's not just about fighting wars with firepower but fighting the right fight with right values. History has taught us this time and again. Iran should always remember their humiliating defeat. They can't win proper wars that's y the resort to suicide attacks by brainwashing innocent lives. Shame.
Lesson 1 when dealing with the us
Don’t touch our boats
One takeaway… If there is a Sammy B in the area, don't FAFO. The Japanese learned a similar lesson
