I've Been Thinking:
An Iranian plane flew right up to a US air craft carrier and filmed it.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard said that it was part of normal activities in the Straits of Hormuz and was one of several ways in which they regularly patrol the entire region.
The report said: "The latest Revolutionary Guard operation is a mission to identify an American aircraft carrier passing through the region, carried out by a navy reconnaissance plane called the Harbin Y-2."
And then it added: "For some time, the Revolutionary Guard has had modern drone technology, and it is carrying out missions to identify foreign vessels in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz."
According to Tasnim, the Persian media outlet: "The most well-known example of this is a
Revolutionary Guard drone's reconnaissance mission to identify an American aircraft carrier in the Strait of Hormuz; images from this were broadcast live to a Revolutionary Guard commanders' conference in Mashhad province."
One part of the video that was released by the Iranians was hilarious. The Crew on the carrier was seen staring at the plane and looking right into the camera. It was almost as if they were asking: What are you doing here?
The United States did nothing. They just stood and watched as they were being filmed.
