美国正准备用已在另一战场测试过的战术应对伊朗的快速攻击艇——针对加勒比和东太平洋地区与贩毒网络相关的小型船只实施致命打击。

自2025年9月以来,美军已对疑似贩毒船只实施了数十次致命打击,这是针对贩毒集团关联网络的更广泛军事行动的一部分。美国打击贩毒船只的行动,为美军如何应对海上小型高速目标提供了范本。

多名官员现在暗示,类似战术可能会在霍尔木兹海峡用于应对伊朗船只。

唐纳德·特朗普总统周一在“真相社交”的帖子中明确了这一关联,警告任何靠近封锁线的伊朗船只都将“立即被歼灭,使用我们对付海上贩毒船只的同一套击杀系统……这是速战速决且残酷的。”

自该行动展开以来,美国南方司令部已对船只实施了数十次打击,造成160多人死亡,摧毁了数十艘船只。这些行动依赖侦察、快速锁定目标和精确打击能力,这些能力同样可在海湾地区使用。

但在加勒比和东太平洋,美军打击的是响应能力有限的非国家行为体。而在霍尔木兹海峡,美军将直面伊朗军方——这支武装有组织、行动在全球战略敏感度最高的水道之一。

在波斯湾针对一支国家支持的军事力量采用该战术,风险要高得多。

特朗普政府周一开始对伊朗港口实施封锁,这使得美军与伊朗海军中在数周打击中基本幸存的部队近距离对峙:伊朗的快速攻击艇舰队。

不过,伊朗剩余的海军威胁与美军已经摧毁的目标截然不同。

大型水面舰艇——护卫舰、轻型护卫舰和其他主力舰——承受了打击的主要冲击。但这些舰艇从来都不是伊朗在海湾地区战略的核心。

长期以来,伊朗的战略重心一直是小型高速平台。

“我们应该按千来计算,”华盛顿近东政策研究所高级研究员法尔津·纳迪米说,“如果把从小型快艇到更具战力的快速攻击艇都算在内,总数可能达到3000到4000艘。”

赫格斯塞思警告伊朗领导人“谨慎选择”与美国的协议:“我们已严阵以待”

他表示,其中约800至900艘舰艇具备搭载反舰导弹的能力,是伊朗舰队中最危险的部分。

“它们分散部署在海岸线和岛屿上,并在加固的隧道综合体中得到保护,”纳迪米说。

部分船只储存在地下设施中,可直接下水。另有一些被放在干燥隧道的拖车上——或是完全转移到内陆。

“其中一些船只被分散部署在平民区域,藏在足够大的建筑物里,”他说。

机动性、隐蔽性和加固基础设施,使得这支舰队比大型固定海军资产更难被歼灭。

作战环境进一步加剧了这一难题。

伊朗还开发了让 targeting 复杂化的战术,包括分散部署、欺骗手段,以及可能使用无人机和协同集群攻击。

霍尔木兹海峡最窄处仅约20英里,迫使船只进入可预测的航道。油轮、货船和军舰都在同一水域通行,往往没有足够时间判断靠近的船只是否构成威胁。

伊朗的快艇正是为这种环境设计的。

它们可以混入民用交通,沿海岸线分散部署并迅速重新集结——将看似常规的海上活动转变为潜在对抗。

到目前为止,伊朗似乎有所克制。

“他们现在处于非常防御的态势……试图保存实力,远离美国的侦察,”纳迪米说。

这包括分散部署舰艇、限制行动,避免被美国无人机和其他情报资产发现。但随着和平谈判陷入僵局,这种态势可能不会持续太久。

当伊朗快艇驶向美国或商业船只时,对峙可能迅速升级。

美军严重依赖侦察——从海岸线追踪船只动向,在它们进入公海之前识别潜在威胁。

这正是与贩毒船只行动的类比站得住脚的地方。

美军可能正在密切监视伊朗海岸线,以便在快艇动员时就能发现并有可能在其出动前实施打击。

在某些情况下,这可能意味着在船只抵达航道之前就将其击毁。

“这些快艇易受空中力量打击,但它们也配备了武器,能够采取战术限制这种脆弱性,”纳迪米说。

与贩毒船只不同,伊朗快艇属于国家支持的军事力量,可能搭载火箭弹、反舰导弹或肩扛式防空武器等防御系统。

“我们可以推测,许多这类船只都配备了类似MANPADS的系统,”纳迪米说。MANPADS即便携式防空系统的缩写,是可肩扛发射、能够打击飞机的导弹。

霍尔木兹海峡仍是全球最关键的航运通道之一,哪怕是有限的中断也会波及全球能源市场。

随着伊朗快艇舰队基本完好无损,且美军正在执行封锁任务,冲突的下一阶段可能取决于海上快速遭遇战。

伊朗尚未公开回应特朗普关于使用缉毒行动战术打击快艇的言论,目前停火协议仍然有效,美国和伊朗正试图谈判达成更长期的和平协议。

US eyes Iran fast boats with ‘kill’ tactics tested in Venezuela drug-boat strikes

Hegseth tells Iran to ‘choose wisely’ on peace talks

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth warned Iranian leaders to “choose wisely” on whether to accept a peace deal with the U.S. on Thursday.

The U.S. is preparing to take on Iran’s fast-attack boats using a playbook it already has tested in another theater — lethal strikes on small vessels tied to drug trafficking networks in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific.

Since September 2025, U.S. forces have conducted dozens of deadly strikes on suspected drug-trafficking vessels, part of a broader military campaign targeting cartel-linked networks. The U.S. campaign against drug-trafficking boats offers a glimpse of how American forces handle small, fast-moving targets at sea.

Officials now suggest similar tactics could be used against Iranian vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

President Donald Trump made that link explicit in a Truth Social post Monday, warning that any Iranian boats approaching the blockade would be “immediately ELIMINATED, using the same system of kill that we use against the drug dealers on boats at Sea … It is quick and brutal.”

Since the campaign began, U.S. Southern Command has carried out dozens of strikes on vessels, killing more than 160 people and destroying dozens of boats. Those operations rely on surveillance, rapid targeting and precision strikes, capabilities that could also be used in the Gulf.

But in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, U.S. forces are targeting nonstate actors with limited ability to respond. In the Strait of Hormuz, they would be confronting Iran’s military — armed, organized, and operating in one of the most strategically sensitive waterways in the world.

Applying that approach in the Persian Gulf, against a state-backed military force, carries far higher risks.

The Trump administration’s blockade of Iranian ports, which began Monday, has pushed U.S. forces into close proximity with the one part of Iran’s navy that has largely survived weeks of strikes: its fast-attack boat fleet.

U.S. and Israeli operations have effectively gutted Iran’s conventional navy, with more than 155 vessels sunk during the conflict, according to U.S. assessments.

Still, what’s left of Iran’s naval threat looks very different from what the U.S. has already destroyed.

Large surface ships — frigates, corvettes and other major vessels — have taken the brunt of the strikes. But those ships were never the centerpiece of Iran’s strategy in the Gulf.

The focus has long been on smaller, faster platforms.

“We should think in the thousands,” said Farzin Nadimi, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “If you include very small boats up to more capable fast-attack craft, the total could reach 3,000 to 4,000 vessels.”

Of those, he said, roughly 800 vessels to 900 vessels are capable of carrying anti-ship missiles, making them the most dangerous segment of the fleet.

“They are dispersed along the coastline and islands, and protected in hardened tunnel complexes,” Nadimi said.

Some boats are stored in underground facilities and launched directly into the water. Others are kept on trailers in dry tunnels — or moved inland entirely.

“Some of these boats have been dispersed into civilian areas, in buildings that are large enough to hide them,” he said.

Mobility, concealment and hardened infrastructure make the fleet far harder to eliminate than larger, fixed naval assets.

The environment only makes the problem harder.

Iran also has developed tactics to complicate targeting, including dispersal, deception and the potential use of drones and coordinated swarm attacks.

The Strait of Hormuz narrows to roughly 20 miles at its tightest point, forcing ships into predictable lanes. Tankers, cargo vessels, and military ships all move through the same space, often with little time to determine whether an approaching boat is a threat.

Iran’s fast boats are designed for exactly that kind of environment.

They can blend into civilian traffic, disperse along the coastline, and regroup quickly — turning what looks like routine maritime activity into a potential confrontation.

So far, Iran appears to be holding back.

“They are now in a very defensive mode … trying to preserve what they have and keep them away from U.S. surveillance,” Nadimi said.

That includes dispersing vessels, limiting movements, and avoiding detection by U.S. drones and other intelligence assets. But as peace negotiations drag on, that posture may not last.

When Iranian fast boats move toward U.S. or commercial vessels, the encounter can unfold quickly.

U.S. forces rely heavily on surveillance — tracking movements from the coastline and identifying potential threats before they reach open water.

That’s where the comparison to drug-boat operations begins to make sense.

U.S. forces are likely monitoring Iran’s coastline closely, allowing them to detect and potentially strike fast boats as they mobilize.

In some cases, that could mean hitting boats before they ever reach the shipping lanes.

“These boats are vulnerable to air power, but they are also armed and can use tactics to limit that vulnerability,” said Nadimi.

Unlike drug-trafficking vessels, Iranian fast boats are part of a state-backed military force and may carry rockets, anti-ship missiles, or defensive systems such as shoulder-fired anti-aircraft weapons.

“We can assume many of these boats carry systems like MANPADS,” Nadimi said. MANPADS — short for man-portable air defense systems — are shoulder-fired missiles capable of targeting aircraft.

The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world’s most critical shipping routes, and even limited disruption can ripple through global energy markets.

With Iran’s fast-boat fleet still largely intact and U.S. forces now enforcing a blockade, the next phase of the conflict may hinge on fast-moving encounters at sea.

Iran has not publicly responded to Trump’s comments about targeting fast boats using tactics used in counter-narcotics operations, and a ceasefire remains in effect while the U.S. and Iran attempt to negotiate a longer-term peace deal.
