The American amphibious assault ship USS Bataan, which carries AV-8B Harrier II fighters capable of taking off and landing vertically, is now in the waters of the Red Sea. It has been reported that personnel are attaching AGM-154 long-range aircraft bombs to the pylons of these aircraft.

Messages about this began to spread on the Internet.

From them, it can be concluded that the US Navy is preparing to use long-range ammunition AGM-154 in the Middle East. They have a warhead weighing 108 kilograms and are capable of hitting objects at a distance of up to 560 kilometers.

It is easy to guess that the appearance of American warships equipped with long-range weapons of destruction may be associated with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which has prospects for expansion both geographically and in terms of the number of participants.

It can also be assumed that the arrival of these forces in the Red Sea, rather than concentrating them only in the Eastern Mediterranean, is a precautionary measure. The fact is that the Lebanese Hezbollah movement, which is increasingly involved in hostilities against Israel, presumably has in its arsenal powerful anti-ship weapons capable of hitting targets in the eastern Mediterranean. Therefore, they can also threaten American warships. In particular, the leader of Hezbollah, Syed Hassan Nasrallah, recently hinted at this very transparently, saying that he had "something" for the US Navy.
