park it in the Strait of Hormuz you cowards
military concepts like "standoff" and "beyond visual range" were invented by woke Marxist generals who were afraid of getting their hands dirty
the Ford is a gigantic ship, Iran only has small wittle boats. they'll definitely run away and be scared of it.
I hope they do park it in the straight, AND I hope Iran sinks it with a cheap rpg.
