The U.S. military is officially back and stronger than ever under the leadership of President Trump.
On Wednesday, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced that a U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship with a torpedo.
The feat by the U.S. Navy submarine is quite remarkable.
Considering the last time a U.S. submarine took out an enemy warship with a torpedo was during WWII
Watch Hegseth make the announcement here:
The Military Times reported more on the historic move:
A United States Navy submarine sunk an Iranian ship with a single torpedo as the frigate was transiting the Indian Ocean, marking the first such kill by a U.S. submarine since World War II, the Pentagon confirmed on Wednesday.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed the strike during a Pentagon press briefing on Operation Epic Fury alongside Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine.
“Yesterday, in the Indian Ocean … an American submarine sunk an Iranian warship that thought it was safe in international waters,” Hegseth said. “Instead, it was sunk by a torpedo. Quiet death. The first sinking of an enemy ship by a torpedo since World War II.”
The identity of the fast-attack boat was not revealed, as is custom for operational security surrounding submarine operations.
The strike occurred off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, according to Reuters, which would indicate the action occurred in the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command area of responsibility.
Video of the torpedo striking the Iranian warship was released by the Department of War.

Det er interessant at høre hvor tilfreds USAs forsvarsminister er med IDFs indsats !
Han kommer – flere gange – med antydninger (f.eks. “a breath of fresh air” !) om at USA ikke er vant til en så kapabel partner – et hug til de europæsiske vatnisser !
