☆ Iran and Turkey are betting on drone aircraft carriers to project power
  + stars: | 2024-09-07 | by ( Paul Iddon | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
These regional powers are betting they can build an expendable air force without the massive costs of aircraft carriers, fighter jets and pilots trained to fly them. Naval experts agree that drone ships represent new possibilities while pointing out that these ships fall far short of the aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships that top navies sail. Turkey developed the Bayraktar TB3 naval drone for the Anadolu and claims the unmanned Kizilelma fighter jet it is developing could also operate from it. Although far from the might and versatility of flattops, these vessels enhance Turkey and Iran's respective capabilities to project naval power. These drone-carriers also have inherent shortcomings when compared to aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships in other navies.

☆ Why the Iranian Navy keeps losing warships in accidents, after its Sahand frigate capsized and sank
  + stars: | 2024-07-12 | by ( Paul Iddon | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +9 min
It was the third navy ship Iran has lost in an accident since 2018. AdvertisementIn June 2021, it lost the 680-feet-long Kharg support ship, the Iranian Navy's largest by tonnage, in a fire, injuring 33. Furthermore, it could also "be a small reflection of government prioritization" of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy over Iran's Navy. "Budgets are training, maintenance, and personnel." Iran has two navies: its Navy, known as the Islamic Republic of Iran Navy, and the naval arm of the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps paramilitary organization.

☆ Jezebel, the Oral History: ‘There Was This Riotous Sense of Fun’
  + stars: | 2023-11-17 | by ( Kate Dwyer | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Lauren Tousignant, senior editor, 2021, to interim editor in chief, 2023: Jezebel got a little neutered under G/O Media. The last few weeks were the most fun in a way, because they had stopped paying attention to us. Kylie Cheung, staff writer, 2021-2023: It’s worker-owned media like Defector and 404 — or nonprofit newsrooms like The 19th News — that gives me hope. Ashley Reese: I became a better writer because of Jezebel, especially when working with my editors, Katie McDonough and Stassa Edwards. And if we were given the resources that we needed, maybe we wouldn’t be talking about Jezebel in the past tense.

☆ Iran seizes oil tanker in Gulf, U.S. Navy says
  + stars: | 2023-04-27 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +5 min
[1/4] Marshall Islands-flagged oil tanker Advantage Sweet, which, according to Refinitiv ship tracking data, is a Suezmax crude tanker which had been chartered by oil major Chevron and had last docked in Kuwait, sails at Marmara sea near Istanbul, Turkey January 10, 2023. Iran's army said it had seized a Marshall Islands-flagged oil tanker in the Gulf of Oman after it collided with an Iranian boat, injuring several crewmen, Iranian state media reported. The vessel's destination was listed as the U.S. Gulf of Mexico port of Houston, ship tracking data showed. Iran last November released two Greek-flagged tankers it seized in the Gulf in May in response to the confiscation of oil by the United States from an Iranian-flagged tanker off the Greek coast. The U.S. Navy, whose Fifth Fleet is based at the Gulf island state of Bahrain, called on Iran to immediately release the tanker.
