LIVE | Iran’s deployment of North Korean-origin Ghadir-class submarines in the Strait of Hormuz is raising fresh fears for the U.S. Navy. Analysts warn the tiny diesel-electric boats could exploit shallow waters, acoustic clutter and surprise tactics to threaten some of America’s most powerful warships. Reports say the submarines are based on North Korean Yono-type designs and may carry torpedoes, mines and cruise missiles. Military experts are now comparing the threat to previous drills where Swedish, Japanese and Chilean diesel submarines reportedly evaded advanced U.S. sonar systems. The growing Hormuz tension has once again put America’s naval dominance under scrutiny.
