Iran's two-week retaliatory campaign against US aggression in the Strait of Hormuz demonstrated a methodical, multi-layered military strategy that systematically degraded American power projection through infrastructure strikes, A2/AD displacement, extended-range precision, ISR attrition, and terrorist suppression, exposing critical vulnerabilities in American air defense inventories.
