In addition to the Patriot system, the amphibious transport dock ship USS Arlington will also head to the Middle East. The Arlington will replace the USS Fort McHenry, as part of the USS Kearsarge Amphibious Ready Group.

And how about a battalion of infantry to protect the Patriot battery?
Wow, ABC, only 24 hours late lol.

I'm so happy for ☹️☹️Raytheon Company and their stock holders.
Whenever we see what is happening in the Middle East and the ramifications that occur moment by moment reminds us of the scenario of the Gulf of Khansin war in the sixties of the last century and its consequences if the outbreak of the Gulf Bay battle led to what happened and the
