On December 26 Houthi militants in western Yemen added to their barrage of weapons lobbed at commercial shipping traversing the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, firing 12 Saheeds, more commonly known as “suicide drones,” 3 anti-ship ballistic missiles, and 2 Quds land attack cruise missiles.
The U.S. Navy did not provide any detail about what was used to down the swarm of Houthi drones and missiles but did allow that the 17 threats were brought down by a combination of weapons fired by the USS Laboon, an Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyer in company with IKE, and - for the first time since the Israel-Hamas war escalated tensions in the region -- Super Hornets from CAG-3.
