4月20日，伊朗籍船只“图斯卡号”试图通过美国海军封锁线后，美军在阿拉伯海附近对其进行巡逻。
据多名知情消息人士透露，美国军方官员正在制定新计划，一旦当前与伊朗的停火协议破裂，就将打击伊朗在霍尔木兹海峡的军事能力。
消息人士称，正在考虑的多类打击目标方案中，包括重点针对霍尔木兹海峡、阿拉伯海南部和阿曼湾周边伊朗军事设施的“动态打击”行动。潜在攻击目标包括小型快速攻击艇、布雷艇及其他非常规作战装备，德黑兰正是依靠这些装备有效封锁了这些关键航道，并将其作为向美国施压的筹码。
此次航道封锁给全球经济造成了巨大冲击，威胁到唐纳德·特朗普总统降低美国通胀的努力，而这场封锁是在4月7日启动的停火暂停美军空袭行动之后发生的。
此前美军曾打击过伊朗海军，但开战头一个月的大部分轰炸行动都集中在海峡以外的目标，以便美军能够深入伊朗境内发动打击。新计划呼吁在战略航道周边展开更为集中的轰炸行动。
美国有线电视新闻网此前曾报道，伊朗绝大部分岸防导弹仍完好无损。伊朗还拥有大量可作为攻击平台的小型快艇，这使得美军开放海峡的行动更加复杂。
包括一名资深航运经纪人在内的多名消息人士向CNN表示，仅针对海峡周边的军事打击，不太可能立即重新开放该航道。
“除非你能百分百证明伊朗的军事能力已被摧毁，或者几乎可以肯定美军有能力化解风险，否则最终还是要看特朗普愿意承担多大风险，开始派遣船只通过海峡，”一名熟悉军事规划的消息人士说道。
消息人士告诉CNN，美军还可能兑现特朗普此前的威胁，打击两用设施和包括能源设施在内的基础设施目标，迫使伊朗回到谈判桌前。特朗普曾表示，如果无法通过外交途径解决战争问题，美国将恢复作战行动。
一些现任和前任美国官员警告称，打击基础设施目标将标志着冲突出现有争议的升级。
另一名消息人士指出，军事规划者还提出了另一个方案：打击个别伊朗军方领导人以及政权内其他“阻挠者”。美国官员近期暗示，这些人正在积极破坏谈判。消息人士称，其中包括伊斯兰革命卫队总司令艾哈迈德·瓦希迪。
“出于行动安全考虑，我们不会讨论未来或假设性的行动，”美国国防部一名官员在被问及打击目标规划时表示。“美军持续为总统提供方案，所有选项都在考虑范围内。”
特朗普多次声称，在美以联合行动击毙包括伊朗最高领袖在内的多名高级官员后，伊朗政权“四分五裂”。周四在社交媒体上的一篇帖子中，特朗普指出，伊朗革命卫队与参与与美国谈判的政府成员之间明显存在分歧，这是阻碍达成外交协议的一大挑战。
“伊朗现在很难确定谁是他们的领导人！他们根本不知道！这场内讧发生在‘强硬派’和‘温和派’之间，强硬派在战场上输得一败涂地，而‘温和派’其实一点也不温和（但正获得更多尊重！），这太荒唐了！”特朗普写道。

消息人士补充称，美军额外的打击行动可能还会针对伊朗剩余的军事能力，包括在美以首轮空袭中未被摧毁，或在停火开始后转移至新战略位置的导弹、发射装置及生产设施。
美国有线电视新闻网此前曾报道，美国情报评估显示，约有一半的伊朗导弹发射装置和数千架单向攻击无人机在美军空袭行动中幸存下来。
上周，美国国防部长皮特·赫格斯在新闻发布会上承认，伊朗在停火期间将部分剩余军事资产转移到了新地点，并威胁称，如果伊朗拒绝达成协议，将打击这些目标。
美国有线电视新闻网此前曾报道，特朗普似乎对重启对伊战争持谨慎态度，更倾向于通过外交途径解决冲突。但与此同时，多名消息人士承认，特朗普的停火延期并非“无限期”，美军已随时准备在接到命令后恢复空袭行动。
特朗普持续对伊朗拒绝重新开放霍尔木兹海峡表示不满。作为对美以首轮空袭的回应，伊朗实际上已封锁了该航道，阻止国际航运通行。

据两名熟悉战争初期规划的消息人士透露，特朗普政府在开战前低估了伊朗封锁海峡的决心——如果美军在开战初期就在附近部署军事资产以威慑或应对伊朗的封锁行动，这场封锁很可能“得以避免”。
战争初期未能阻止伊朗有效封锁海峡，最终导致了两国目前的对峙局面，因为油轮大多因担心遭遇袭击而不愿冒险通过该航道。

US military developing plans to target Iran’s Strait of Hormuz defenses if ceasefire fails

US forces patrol the Arabian Sea near M/V Touska, on April 20, after the Iranian-flagged vessel attempted to pass through the US naval blockade.

US military officials are developing new plans to target Iran’s capabilities in the Strait of Hormuz in the event the current ceasefire with Iran falls apart, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.
The options, among several sets of target types under consideration, include strikes with a particular focus on “dynamic targeting” of Iran’s capabilities around the Strait of Hormuz, southern Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman, the sources said, describing potential attacks against small fast attack boats, minelaying vessels and other asymmetric assets that have helped Tehran effectively shut down those key waterways and use them as leverage over the US.
That shut down has caused massive ripples in the global economy, threatening to undermine President Donald Trump’s efforts to reduce US inflation and has occurred despite a ceasefire pausing US strikes that began on April 7.
While the military has targeted Iran’s Navy, much of the first month of bombing was focused on targets away from the strait that would allow the US military to strike further inside Iran itself. The new plans call for a much more concentrated bombing campaign around strategic waterways.
CNN has previously reported that a large percentage of the country’s coastal defense missiles remain intact. Iran also has numerous small boats that could be used as platforms to launch attacks on ships, complicating US efforts to open the strait.
Military strikes around the strait, on their own, are unlikely to immediately re-open the waterway, multiple sources, including a senior shipping broker, told CNN.

“Unless you can unequivocally prove that 100% of Iran’s military capability is destroyed or near certainty that the US can mitigate the risk with our capability, it will come down to how badly is [Trump] willing to accept the risk and start pushing ships through the strait,” one source familiar with the military planning said.
The US military could also follow through on Trump’s previous threat to strike dual-use and infrastructure targets, including energy facilities, in an effort to compel Iran to the negotiating table, the sources told CNN. Trump has said the US would resume combat operations in the absence of a diplomatic resolution to the war.
Striking infrastructure targets would represent a controversial escalation in the conflict, some current and former US officials have warned.
Another option developed by military planners is to target individual Iranian military leaders and other “obstructionists” within the regime who US officials have recently suggested are actively undermining negotiations, one of the sources noted. That includes Ahmad Vahidi, who serves as Commander-in-Chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the source said.
“Due to operations security, we do not discuss future or hypothetical movements,” a Defense Department official said when asked about target planning. “The U.S. military continues to provide the President options, and all options remain on the table.”
Trump has repeatedly claimed that the Iranian regime is “fractured” after joint US-Israeli operations killed a number of high-ranking officials, including the country’s supreme leader. In a social media post on Thursday, Trump pointed to an apparent split between the IRGC and members of the government who had been engaged in talks with the US as one challenge standing in the way of a diplomatic agreement.
“Iran is having a very hard time figuring out who their leader is! They just don’t know! The infighting is between the ‘Hardliners,’ who have been losing BADLY on the battlefield, and the “Moderates,” who are not very moderate at all (but gaining respect!), is CRAZY!” Trump wrote.

Additional US strikes would likely also target Iran’s remaining military capabilities, including missiles, launchers and production facilities that were not destroyed in the initial wave of US-Israeli attacks or may have been moved to new strategic positions since the ceasefire started, the sources added.
CNN previously reported that roughly half of Iran’s missile launchers and thousands of one-way attack drones had survived the US bombing campaign, US intelligence had assessed.
Last week, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth acknowledged during a press briefing that Iran has moved some of its remaining military assets to new locations during the ceasefire and threatened to hit those targets should Iran refuse to agree to a deal.
Trump appears wary of restarting the war with Iran and would prefer a diplomatic resolution to the conflict, CNN has reported. But at the same time, multiple sources acknowledged that Trump’s ceasefire extension is not “indefinite” and the US military is standing ready to resume strikes if called upon to do so.
Trump has continued to voice frustration over Iran’s refusal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which it effectively closed-off to international shipping in response to the opening salvo of US-Israeli strikes.

The Trump administration underestimated Iran’s willingness to shut down the strait prior to launching the war – a move that could have likely been “prevented” if the US had positioned military assets nearby at the outset to deter or respond Tehran from doing so, according to two sources familiar with the initial planning for the war.
Failing to prevent Iran from effectively closing the strait during the initial days of the war has ultimately led to the current standoff between the two countries as tankers largely remain unwilling to risk transiting the waterway due to fear of attack.

The US Navy currently has 19 ships in the Middle East, including two aircraft carriers, and seven ships in the Indian Ocean, a US official said Thursday.
The US military began enforcing a blockade of Iranian ports using much of that force on April 13 and has redirected at least 33 ships as of Thursday.

US forces have also boarded at least three ships, including two in the Indian Ocean, roughly 2,000 miles from the Persian Gulf. The most recent boarding occurred overnight on Wednesday, when US forces boarded a “sanctioned stateless vessel” carrying oil from Iran in the Indian Ocean, the Defense Department announced.
