Saagar EnjetiHOST
Some US personnel were on board.
Saagar EnjetiHOST
So when we say US-contracted vessel, US contracted by whom? A US oil company? US Navy? The United States military? The government? US personnel were on board.
Saagar EnjetiHOST
Contractors? Navy SEALs? Na- [laughs] US Marines? I mean, this, this actually does raise significant questions about what exactly is going on here, because to our knowledge previously, it's been Gulf-owned carriers and Gulf-owned companies which have been running the blockade.
Saagar EnjetiHOST
This is the first time, to our knowledge, that the United States explicitly is contracting an oil vessel, or at least some sort of vessel, and has, quote, "personnel who are on board." A very sketchy situation, and the only reason it's coming to light is 'cause the ship got hit, and obviously there were minor injuries that were at least what they claim are minor.
Jack ArmstrongHOST
Those are some good stats.
Joe GettyHOST
And what enabled all of that? The United States Navy.
Joe GettyHOST
Just reading about that, super interesting.
Joe GettyHOST
Plus the guy duct-taped on a plane has broken his silence.
Joe ScarboroughHOST
[coughs]
Jake SullivanGUEST
You know, the president keeps talking about how he's getting the strait at least partially open, but just in the last 24 hours we heard that something like four ships got through, and that's at the cost of billions of dollars and nearly half the US Navy and most of our special forces being devoted to try to pry the strait open a little bit.
Jake SullivanGUEST
That is shifting-
Joe ScarboroughHOST
So, so, so, so Jake-
Tyler KiwalaHOST
So Tim Gallaudet, I guess is how you say his name.
Tyler KiwalaHOST
He is an American oceanographer and retired rear admiral in the United States Navy.
Tyler KiwalaHOST
He was on the Jesse Michaels show talking about they have discovered what they believe is Atlantis and they're getting ready to dive on it.
Tyler KiwalaHOST
So I'm going to play this.
Kerry CraigHOST
Does your outlook depend on specific factors such as oil price assumptions? Yep, and our base case is that you get some resolution to what's happening in the Strait of Hormuz that may not be a full reopening that sees you go back to 20 million barrels passing through that waterway every day.
Kerry CraigHOST
I think what we did learn is that there was enough oil passing through even when it was technically closed or being escorted through by the US Navy that it created sort of 10 or 11 million barrels a day.
Kerry CraigHOST
What's happening in the Red Sea is a new development that's worth monitoring given the disruption that could have.
Kerry CraigHOST
We also saw demand come off as well.
John M. HobermanGUEST
The billionaires who run the NFL are enacting their own version of, you know, deny, delay, delay.
John M. HobermanGUEST
And the U.S. Navy itself has an almost comically stupid record with regard to Response, is the institution going to respond? Is the institutional will going to be there to take care of people? That is, these are three scenarios that are like that.
John M. HobermanGUEST
So that, I mean, I think that's why, Derek, that's why it's important to point out that you can do a lot of talk over the years, you know, in serious publications that have audiences about something, and not a whole lot is going to change.
John M. HobermanGUEST
And I want to go back to Nathan's point about the fantasy that Black people have an immunity to pain.
Tom ClaxtonHOST
You're so deserving.
Tom ClaxtonHOST
But another thing we have is our secretary in the South Alabama Veterans Council, is our veteran of the year, is a Navy man, Tom Schwartz.
Tom ClaxtonHOST
What an awesome gentleman and what a deserving person he is as well.
Tom ClaxtonHOST
How
Kent DavisGUEST
I had combined units at times aboard both the battleship USS Missouri and at Naval Air Station Atlanta.
Kent DavisGUEST
I loved the Marine Corps.
Tom ClaxtonHOST
Well, we're just there to fight for the Navy, sir.
Tom ClaxtonHOST
Yep.
Scott JohnsonHOST
The Houthis still rely on their Iranian sponsors for the most sophisticated components in their drones and ballistic missiles, but as the anthropic report suggested, in recent years, they have become much more advanced at building their own weapons systems.
Scott JohnsonHOST
This has given the Houthis greater flexibility to maintain their fight against Yemeni and Saudi adversaries, attack shipping traffic in the Red Sea, and threaten Israeli and U.S. targets, even with the U.S. Navy enforcing a months-long blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Scott JohnsonHOST
The Houthis and their Iranian advisers were already experimenting with unmanned surface vessels a decade ago.
Scott JohnsonHOST
The militant group used a remote-controlled boat loaded with explosives to attack a Saudi frigate all the way back in 2017, killing two people in the process.
Scott JohnsonHOST
They have the ratlines that still can bring those components because they're not the big pieces.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Those might include guidance systems, rocket engines, and wingtips and fins that require a higher degree of precision engineering, Mr. Salisbury said.
Scott JohnsonHOST
While the U.S. Navy's blockade focuses on large container ships and tankers, smaller components can be smuggled on medium-sized vessels like the traditional dhows plowing the region's waters.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Shipments can be sent directly to Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, trans-shipped via the Horn of Africa, or even transferred ship-to-ship in the waters off the coast of Somalia.
J.J. GertlerHOST
And this is further evidence supporting the MQ-25 as having pole position.
Vago MuradianHOST
I would agree with you in terms of the pole position of the MQ-25 and how important that's going to be, especially in the context of F-AXX and that airplane materializing, because the U.S. Navy does need a longer-legged combat aircraft operating from its decks.
Vago MuradianHOST
Again, big decks were about big airplanes with big range at the end of the day, whether it was the F-14 or the A-6 Intruder.
Vago MuradianHOST
Okay, let's talk a little bit about collaborative combat aircraft and the new cheaper mass modular aircraft approach.
speaker_0HOST
The incident of this hurly-burly being, perhaps best described by the officer who, in his report of his own share in it, remarked that all sorts of things happened.
speaker_0HOST
Of the Confederate Rams, there were two, commanded by trained officers formerly in the United States Navy, Lieutenants Kennan and Worley.
speaker_0HOST
Both these men handled their little vessels with remarkable courage, skill, and success, fighting them to the last and inflicting serious and heavy damage upon the Union fleet.
speaker_0HOST
The other vessels of the flotilla were commanded by men who had not been in the regular Navy, but were merely Mississippi River captains and the like.
