Their air forces and naval forces are insignificant compared to this single armada...and we have many of this types of armada's...as well as the capability of launching long range bombers from bases in the U.S...and other parts of the world in the form of B1 and B2 Bombers that will arrive above Iran in a matter of hours.
Can Iran inflict some damage...yes...but it would be negligble to the amount of damage they would suffer just from this single armada.

Why are we discussing an attack on Iran again?
