After the tension with Iran, America has laid siege to the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Aden with one of its aircraft carriers in the Arabian Sea so that Iran can be surrounded. Since there is no land border between America and Iran, it can be assumed that if there is any war between the two countries, it can be non-contact, either through sea or sky. In such a situation, assessment of the Navy and Air Force of both the countries is very important.
Whose navy is stronger between America and Iran?
America has 20 aircraft carriers. These are huge military bases floating in the sea, on which dozens of F-18 Super Hornet fighter jets and helicopters can be deployed. Apart from this, America has more than 450 warships. Whereas Iran has only 279 warships and no aircraft carriers. America has 70 submarines and Iran has 25 submarines. Through these submarines, Iran’s Navy is preparing to open a front against America’s aircraft carriers and warships.
Iranian Air Force will not be able to stand against America
While the US Air Force has 13 thousand fighter jets, surveillance aircraft, transport aircraft, tankers (refueling) and helicopters, Iran has only 1000 aircraft. The US Air Force has the world’s advanced and most dangerous stealth aircraft like F-22 and F-35. Apart from this, there are C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft that go from one corner of the world to another. The Iranian Air Force has Russian MiG-29s from the 80s and old F-14 fighter jets from the 70s. Now no air force in the world uses these F-14s.
How can Iran outweigh America?
In June last year, America used the same F-22 and F-35 fighter jets to attack Iran’s nuclear plants, which no radar or surveillance system in the world could even detect, let alone track. If Iran can outweigh America in any matter, it is missiles and drones. Although America has many military bases in the Gulf countries, but ground-based missiles are less. This is the reason why last year America attacked Iran with its submarine launched missile.
Iran has ballistic to hypersonic missiles, which are believed to have been developed secretly with the help of Russia and China. These include Fatah, Zulfaghar, Shabab, Gadar and Koramshahr. Through these missiles, Iran had turned the tide of the 12-day war against Israel last year. Iran even attacked the US base in Qatar.
Iran will compete with America through drones
Iran has the Shaheed drone, which has turned the tide of the war for Russia against Ukraine. Through these martyred drones, Iran is preparing to attack America’s aircraft carriers and warships because Yemen’s Houthi rebels had used the same drones against America’s warships and MQ-9 Predator drones.
With the sound of war, the Russian Navy has reached Bandar Abbas Port of Iran today to stop America from war. At the same time, England has banned America from using its military bases to attack Iran. Last year, the US attacked Iran from the Diego Garcia base in England in the Indian Ocean. It is clear that if there is a war, America will have less countries to support it except Israel, whereas Russia is already standing for Iran and China can also help indirectly.
