Those whacky Persians...
 

...are still at it. Building another mock up...

Why do they even waste their time?:haha:

There are Voodoo Dolls. Maybe it's a Voodoo Nimitz. :D

For the same reason we build mock-ups in our deserts probably.

Same reason there's a scale model of a landscape in the middle of China.

They even shrunk their army down to exercise on it:

Ok, so maybe they didn't, but the landscape is real, you can see it on Google Earth.

Chances are that the carrier will be the target of a new weapon that Iran has in development, probably a missile of some sort. Heck, maybe they'll nuke it with the nuclear bomb that everyone has said that they've been on the verge of getting for the past ten years. :03:

Always expect the unexpected from Iran :doh:

It'S a trojan carrier. They place it at the entrance to New York harbour, waiting for the Americans to tow it in. Then they will wait for nightfall and next open the city gates.

The city gates.

Well, where were the city gates... must be - over there, I think.

:ping:

Well, it ain't that often you crack a funny but that one was good :)

The only gates we have are "The gateway to the west" in St Louis and the "Golden Gate" in San Francisco. Both of which will get you mugged if you pass through them.:huh:

The faux Nimitz is most likely a prop for more propaganda BS.

They're practicing landing a 777 on it . It all fits neatly into place.

Or they're making a movie about bold Persian defense against the evil American attack on Tehran.

Get it right! The 777 is to take off from this!
Seems they may have heard of an event like this from WWII?
:hmmm:

No, you're thinking of the wrong Ancient Greek war. The Iranians will try to get the mock-up through a narrow pass, but most of it will be destroyed by 300 US Marines.

oh wait...

Somebody got a 1:1 scale model for their B-day.:woot:
I'd convert it to RC.:/\\k:
