The United States blindly favored Israel, and finally angered the Houthis in Yemen, and actually launched a surprise attack on the US aircraft carrier
On December 27, according to Al Jazeera, the US military ** command confirmed that after the Iranian commander in Syria was killed by the Israel Defense Forces, the Yemeni Houthis carried out the first saturation attack on the US aircraft carrier battle group, and launched ** 12 suicide drones, 2 long-range cruise missiles and 3 anti-ship ballistic missiles at one time.
After the attack, the E-2D early warning plane on the US aircraft carrier "Eisenhower" discovered an abnormality and commanded the US missile destroyer USS Laban and the F A-18 "Super Hornet" fighter jets on the USS Eisenhower aircraft carrier in the Red Sea to carry out emergency interception operations, shooting down and intercepting all missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles.
This is the first time that Yemen's Houthis have attacked a U.S. aircraft carrier, and it is also a saturation attack. With the first time, there will be a second time, the Yemeni Houthis are directly involved with the US aircraft carrier battle group, and it is almost impossible for the Yemeni Houthis to sink the aircraft carrier, but it is not impossible to sink the aircraft carrier.
Judging from the missile strike by the Yemeni Houthi forces, the missile penetration capability of the Yemeni Houthis is indeed relatively weak, and now that the two sides have officially started fighting, the Yemeni Houthis must change their tactics and give up attacking the aircraft carrier battle group. Because the aircraft carrier battle group has too strong anti-aircraft and anti-missile capabilities, there are three layers of protective rings. It is possible to try to strike US military escorts**.
Like today's saturation attack, a single escort may not be able to withstand it, and now the two sides are beginning to compete directly, if the tactics of the Houthis in Yemen are used properly, it is really possible that the US ship will be sunk.
