One of Iran’s newest warships capsized in port over the weekend while undergoing repairs, an incident that could damage key warfighting systems and put the ship out of commission for up to half a year, a naval analyst said.
The 311-foot-long frigate Sahand was at a dock in the port of Bandar Abbas when it “lost its balance” after water leaked into its tanks, according to a report from the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA).
A photo from the semi-official Tasnim News Agency showed the warship, with a displacement of about 2,000 tons, resting on its left side in the Bandar Abbas port.
The ship, which Tasnim said entered service in December 2018, is one of the bigger vessels in Iran’s fleet, equipped with antiship cruise missiles and an electronic warfare system.
No one thinks that. A nuclear attack is generally assumed to cascade counter launches by other regional neighbors, so on, and so forth.
This probably wouldn’t happen, as I’ve even read reports suggesting a conventional response (albeit overwhelming) may be more likely.
No one thinks Iran’s nukes would crack a continent.
norimee@lemmy.world and others here think they can, hence why I believe people here are dumb.
That is not my perception of the root comments “blow up half the world” line.
Your perception of reality is optimistic in the face of the amount of stupidity you seem to encounter every day.
You seem to consistently plug your ears with your fingers and sing, and that’s not the right way to fix things.
You need to call out stupidity when you see it, stop being scared of people not liking you. This is why your life is slowly crumbling around you.
You’re doing a whole lot of assuming. Especially that I wasn’t calling out stupidity I’m the first place. 😉
Sounds like you should call out my stupidity harder
Why are you like this
Maybe it’s a call for help? Likely there’s a psychological reason we can research.
I think you just need a Snickers bar
I’ve read the root comment a few times and cannot see what you’re huffing about. They didn’t say anything about the creation of the weapons.
The entire comment revolved around the country’s capability of keeping one in functional condition without an accident occurring, as seems to so often happen.
My comment made some edits.
I don’t see that norimee’s initial comment was edited. I do see that your reply to them has been.
Due to spelling and punctuation.
Based on your other comments, I’m going to wish you well and hope tomorrow you have a better day. Cheers.
Thanks! Same to you.
