It has been an... exciting week in US Navy news and this episode breaks down the two big events:
1 - The USS Carney shot down 15 drones and 9 cruise missiles fired by Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen heading towards Israel.
2- The US currently has two carrier battle groups deployed in the Eastern Mediterranean in addition to other high end military assets to deter Iran from entering the broader conflict. Iranian proxy's have already launched drone attacks and missiles ar US bases across the Middle East and there is a non-trivial chance the US gets pulled into another Middle East conflict.
