I know how to settle this: do a custom senario!
put like 5 kilos on that Strait of Hormuz and make 3 or 4 OHPs, some P-3s out of Iraq or Kuwait and a fleet of US warships try to break through. If you want, put in Migs and F-14s and all kinds of junk that would really be there if we went to war.
Then we can see how long the kilos last and how much they take out.
