Iran has [B]3[/B] total destroyers. (all of which are listed as "not active" :v: )
England alone has [B]19[/B] total destroyers.
This is a one sided battle.[/QUOTE]
But Iran will no doubt have a carrier or two, which Britain lacks at this moment seen as David Cameron and all his wisdom got rid of them.

Iran has just as many as England does then.
But, carriers are kind of useless and pointless for Iran when this is literally right next to their coastline.

Suppose, but that will mean Iran have access to airbases and its Britain. England only makes up part of the British Forces.

The Royal Navy has 6 destroyers and 13 frigates. But point taken.
I seem to remember reading somewhere that the biggest threat from Iran was just loads of one/two man ships with an RPG in each. If one rocket hit the side of a ship it can do it some pretty serious damage.
Where's Gunfox, I'm sure he can give a complete detailed listing of the firepower on each side and who would ultimately win this WWIII
What? We still have naval power?
Whats that, like one ship?
Fuck the speedboats

You'd be suprised how ineffective they are against [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ef2CETmtamw&t=18m50s]small boats which can't sink.[/url]
Pre-emptive wars are so much better than real wars.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;37687786]It depends on the size of Iran's fleet, which if I recall isn't that big itself.[/QUOTE]
Why you people dig on this.
Seriously are people here too stupid or purposefully ignoring the fact that Iran having a huge fleet would make as much sense as Latvia having Fleet Carriers. Why bother investing in a huge fleet to cover a small gulf when you are mostly landlocked country.
The Gulf is well within the range of Iran's military airfields, and it's not like they wouldn't just fill the whole place with mines to the point that you could just walk ontop of them to the opposite coast.
