Surface Forces: American Naval Drone in Action

September 7, 2026: In early July, the American Navy used three Corsair naval surface drones to attack an Iranian submarine and ship maintenance facility in the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas. As a result, Iran now has difficulty attacking commercial shipping. The Corsairs were supported by F-18 warplanes and Marine F-35s operating from the USS Abraham Lincoln. Land-based AH-64 helicopter gunships armed with autocannons and Hellfire guided missiles provided additional air cover. The Air Force also has A-10 ground-attack aircraft armed with a 30mm high-speed autocannon, missiles, and guided bombs.
