FIFY.
so what happens if one night a mysterious explosion (say like one from an nuclear attack subs torpedo) sends one to the bottom; who would complain - besides Iran of course.
I think the USS Barack Obama should be an appropriate projection of the Kenyan's unbending willingness to defend the nation.

If you look carefully at the stern in the first shot, it all becomes so obvious. Those tricky towelheads have glued a bunch of cardboard doodads on Quentin McHale's old PT-73 and photoshopped it to look mean.

The bottom pic is what any Naval vessel from a hostile government, such as that of Iran, that enters U.S. waters should look like.
