A complex, targetted and multi layered closure of the Strait of Hormuz is being considered by Iran, according to media.
Tankers destined for China and Asia could be allowed through while tankers moving oil and LNG to Europe, UK and US allies could be blocked.
US aircraft carriers and bases cannot defend against Iranian and Chinese hypersonic missiles, especially as they lack anything resembling Israel s failed Iron Dome, making them vulnerable to attack.
The sinking of just one aircraft carrier would signal the end of the US military power.
