How Iran uncovered the bounds of the US navy | DW News

Experts Bryan Clark, Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute, and Zhou Bo, retired Senior Colonel, explain why aircraft carriers and bases are no longer enough, how Iran and non-state actors like the Yemeni Houthis exploit chokepoints, and what lessons the US and China are drawing for the future of naval warfare.
