I think they’ve hit a couple of big beautiful boats so far.
My pet theory is that there seems to have been so little damage because these are still early stage probing attacks with cheap munitions to figure out how best to land a big warhead on them. I hope so anyway.
supposedly they’re targeting comms arrays, which is some real “if a man can’t see he can’t fight” karate kid 3 shit.
or maybe that’s just the easiest part to hit
love a strategy that you can say you’re doing ahead of time and they can’t do anything about it.
