These turtles rival the French.
In an attempt to gain revenge over losing one of their oil tankers which was en route to illegally supply Syria with oil, three Iranian Revolutionary Guard gunboats attempted to seize a BP oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz by steering into their territorial waters.
In a gross miscalculation, what these "elite" warriors didn't know is that a British navy warship was trailing the tanker just 5 miles behind and a manned, US surveillance plane was on overwatch duty above.
Working together with recon intel and early warnings from the US plane and a British navy attack helicopter, the frigate positioned itself between the oil tanker and the Iranian gunboats. They aimed their 30MM, dual-barrel automatic deck guns on the Iranians, communicated a verbal warning, and the Iranians tucked tail and ran. Pussies.
I mean, it's the British, dawgs. We beat that ass with our untrained militia using personally owned firearms. Weak af.
