Iran has 150,000 troops defending Hormuz. 5,000 mines in the water. Fortress islands armed with anti-ship missiles. 40 years of preparation. And US Navy Marines just bypassed all of it. This is the engineering breakdown of how. Iran built every layer of its defense to stop ships. But Marines didn't come by ship. They came from the sky flying over every mine, above every missile, and landing where Iran's 150,000 troops become 300. That is not bravery. That is geometry. #usnavy #usmarines #straitofhormuz #iranwar #navydecoded #operationepicfury #persiangulf Timestamps:0:00 13,000 targets down.
