Iran
Tja, noe må jo Trump finne på i nederlagets sviende time. Det er jo Iran som styrer nå, Trump bare later som. (Red.)
Trump stenger Hormuz Stredet
----oooo00O00oooo----
USA avbrøt marinens virksomhet i Hormuz Stredet etter trusler fra Iran. Nå er de i sving igjen med minesveiping. Jeg opplever det som meget spesielt at det benyttes destroyere til denne jobben. USN har hatt minesveipere spesialbygget for formålet, men disse er visstnok i opplag. USN har forøvrig benyttet MH-53E helikoptre i mineryddingsrollen, omtalt her på bloggen for mange år siden.
(The Navy also operates the MH-53E Sea Dragon which fills the United States Navy's need for long-range minesweeping or airborne mine countermeasures missions, and performs heavy-lift duties for the Navy. )

Epic Fury, March 18, 2026. U.S. Central Command said two destroyers, including
the Frank E. Petersen Jr., were part of a mine-clearing operation in the Strait

The United
States and Iran failed to reach a peace deal following 21 hours of talks in
Islamabad, Vice President JD Vance said Sunday, suggesting a return to major
violence was possible in the more than month-long war.
At a brief
press conference, Vance said Iran had for now rejected “our final and best
offer,” while insisting the discussions were substantive and that the U.S. was
“quite flexible and accommodating.”

Putin blåser seg opp i nord
Mens alle øyne var rettet mot Iran, planla Russland sabotasje av kritisk infrastruktur i Nordsjøen. Det russerne gjorde da de ble fakket, burde holde nordmenn våkne om natta.

Finland kjøper tungt artilleri
Finland Doubles K9 Artillery Fleet With 112 New Systems as NATO Strengthens Russia Border Firepower.
Finland signed a €546.8 million deal with South Korea to acquire 112 additional K9 Thunder 155 mm self-propelled howitzers. The purchase nearly doubles its fleet and strengthens NATO’s long-range artillery power on Russia’s border.
The 9 April 2026 government-to-government agreement with the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency adds systems, spares, and support equipment, bringing Finland’s planned inventory to 208 guns. The deal accelerates Helsinki’s shift from towed artillery toward protected, mobile 155 mm fires, improving survivability and rapid-response strike capability across NATO’s northeastern flank
