And how likely do you think THAT is?

Have you ever heard of HELICOPTERS being scrambled off an aircraft
carrier to intercept inbounds?

I think the Iranians were being watched the whole time and just
weren't smart enough to realize it.

In other words, it's the usual baseless chest thumping that typically
occurs in that region of the world.


And do have any evidence that it was being watched, or that helicopters
were scrambled to deal with it, or is that just "baseless chest
thumping"? Presumably the USN would have said something by now if they
had known about it all along?
