US dispatches warships and fighter jets to Iran's vicinity
The United States announced the deployment of warships and fighter jets to the vicinity of Iran to strengthen its air power.
The United States announced in a statement that it is trying to send more warships, fighter jets, and bombers to the Middle East in order to prepare for any military conflict.
In its latest move, the United States has dispatched the aircraft carrier Carl Vinson from the Pacific to the area under the command of CENTCOM, which is near Iran. It will enter the area in about two weeks. The deployment of the ship is due to its being equipped with advanced and stealthy F-35 fighter jets, which is one of the most important reasons for its deployment.
The deployment of this ship in the mentioned region will increase the US air and naval power to confront the Islamic Republic and its proxies. The US power for a possible attack on Iranian territory will increase with the increase in fighter jets, because it is very difficult for the Islamic Republic's defense systems, which were damaged after the Israeli attack, to identify and confront the fighter jets of the said ship.
The presence of F-35 fighters on the Carl Vinson allows the United States to attack Iran's military and nuclear facilities without the need for any military bases in Arab countries, and this is very important due to the Islamic Republic's recent warning that "regional countries using their bases to attack Iran will target them with counterattacks."
Israel is currently the only country in the region that has 75 F-35 fighter jets, which it purchased from the United States, and which it used in Operation "Day of Repentance" to attack the Islamic Republic's missile and defense facilities in October of last year (1403).
The deployment of the aforementioned fighter jets in the region, in addition to allowing the United States to attack deep into Iranian military installations, would also allow a very large number of these advanced fighter jets to be used simultaneously if Israel cooperates with the United States to carry out broader operations.
In addition to the aircraft on the ship, the US has also deployed B-52 heavy bombers to the region, currently based at Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar and Diego Garcia Air Base in the Indian Ocean. The US has also carried out a simulated attack on Iranian facilities with the bombers in the Mediterranean Sea, with the participation of Israeli fighter jets.
In addition to the aforementioned bases, the United States has deployed its fighter jets to the Al Dhafra bases in the UAE and Ali Salem and Ahmed Jaber bases in Kuwait, indicating widespread airstrikes against the Islamic Republic. As a result of the deployment of the Carl Winston in the region and heavy bombers, the United States has sent a warning to Tehran that if it does not retreat, the military option will be seriously pursued, and this very powerful and reinforced military formation could turn from a tool of threat into a military action.
