Iran Practices Military Attacks on Mock U.S. Aircraft Carrier
(AP-ABC News) Ali Akbar Dareini - Iran's Revolutionary Guard launched large-scale naval and air defense drills near the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday in which dozens of speedboats swarmed a replica of a U.S. aircraft carrier. State TV showed footage of missiles fired from the coast and the fast boats striking the mock U.S. aircraft carrier. Last month the Guard's navy chief, Adm. Ali Fadavi, said on state TV that his force is capable of sinking American aircraft carriers.
