Fast, Cheap, Deadly | Iran’s "Mosquito Fleet" Survives US Navy, Turns Hormuz Into Kill Zone | VERTEX

Описание: Iran’s so-called “mosquito fleet” is emerging as a critical threat in the Strait of Hormuz despite heavy US strikes on its conventional navy. Comprised of thousands of small, fast-attack boats operated by the IRGC, this swarm strategy focuses on disruption rather than dominance. Armed with rockets, drones and mines, these vessels are difficult to detect and eliminate. In a narrow chokepoint that carries nearly one-fifth of global oil, even limited attacks can rattle markets and deter shipping. Analysts say Iran’s approach reflects asymmetric warfare, using speed, scale and unpredictability to challenge US naval power and maintain strategic leverage.
