Iran Attacked Three Ships at Once – 24 Minutes Later, All Four Batteries and Their Headquarters….lh

She managed to destroy one missile but sustained damage from a partially guided missile that continued its trajectory toward the ship.

At 14:18:54, the damaged missile struck the Constellation, creating a significant breach in the hull and resulting in a rapid influx of water.

Three sailors were killed in the explosion, and the ship began listing to starboard as damage control teams scrambled to respond.

Captain Morrison quickly assessed the situation and recognized an opportunity.

With all four Iranian missile batteries having revealed their positions, she ordered a counter-battery strike against the designated launch sites.

At 14:21, she transmitted formation-wide orders to engage the Iranian launch sites, initiating a coordinated counter-strike.

The Meyer launched six Tomahawks at 14:22:14, targeting the batteries that had attacked her.

The Antidum followed suit, launching eight Tomahawks at 14:22:31, while the damaged Constellation, still taking on water, launched four Tomahawks at 14:23:18.
