Iran says its small subs deployed to Strait of Hormuz as expert explains threat: ‘Vulnerable to detection’

Iran has deployed small submarines to the Strait of Hormuz amid heightened tensions following the collapse of peace talks with the U.S., seeking to reinforce its control over the strategic waterway. Experts warn that the submarines' limited capabilities make them unlikely to pose a serious threat to U.S. naval forces, but their vulnerability to detection remains a concern. The U.S. Navy dispatched an Ohio-class nuclear-armed submarine to Gibraltar, demonstrating its continued commitment to NATO allies.
