piracy, politics, and more).
Let me explain the importance of this fleet. Destroying it would mean
eliminating approximately 75% of US power in the Middle East.
First, the fleet covers an area of about 6.5 million square kilometers,
encompassing the Gulf, the Red Sea, the Gulf of Oman, the Arabian Sea, and parts
of the Indian Ocean, across 21 countries. It includes three vital strategic
chokepoints: the Strait of Hormuz, the Suez Canal, and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
Approximately 90% of the world's oil trade passes through these areas, and US
control over them guarantees their energy supply chains.
Second: The fleet is the backbone of US maritime security in the Middle East for
the following reasons:
1- It was established in 1995 against (Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan)
with the aim of imposing US hegemony in the Middle East and Central Asia after
the collapse of the Soviet Union.
2- It participated practically in the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan, the 2003
invasion of Iraq, and the aggression against Iran in 2005, and was the main
force used to strike Yemen from 2023 to 2025.
3- Currently, it is the main force for striking Iran in 2026, and all
information, plans, war orders, and deployments originate from it.
4- The fleet contains more than 30 naval vessels, including destroyers,
submarines, and mobile aircraft carriers, with a total of 15,000 personnel, in
addition to hundreds of aircraft on the carriers and thousands of advanced
missiles.
5- It has diplomatic and political activity in coordination and cooperation with
Arab rulers.
Do you see its importance?
This is a comprehensive administrative center.
Iran is focused on it and has succeeded in destroying its radars and some of its
naval and logistical equipment. It is subjected to heavy bombardment daily
without being able to intercept the missiles or even maneuver against them.
This means the fleet has practically become a weak point, and the destruction of
its last remaining radar systems may have been the reason for the mistaken
downing of three F-15 fighter jets today, according to the US Central Command
statement (this is doubtful, as Iran claims to have shot down the jets, not that
it was a Kuwaiti error).
In conclusion: Destroying this fleet and its command headquarters negatively
impacts Israel and America's ability to defend, attack, and gather
intelligence. If the Iranians succeed in destroying it (completely), it would
mean a potential American military catastrophe, perhaps unprecedented since
World War II.
