The Pentagon is making "heavy preparations" for deploying American troops on the ground in Iran as President Donald Trump continues to weigh his options.
I’m wondering about how they’re going to get them there in the first place. Both landing craft and rotorcraft are going to be very vulnerable if our air power can’t silence Iranian fire (which is seemingly the whole reason why this is “necessary”).

Yeah, and beach landings are notoriously hard to oppose.
