On June 9, an AH-64 Apache helicopter crashed near the Strait of Hormuz during a routine patrol, with its two crew members safely recovered in about two hours by the Navy's 24-foot Corsair drone boat. Built by Saronic Technologies and operated by Task Force 59, the vessel located the aviators, brought them aboard, and delivered them for helicopter pickup; both are now stable. The first publicly known rescue by an unmanned surface vessel came amid U.S.-Iran tensions, with the crash cause under investigation amid unconfirmed reports of a collision with an Iranian drone. Saronic highlighted the boat's AI-driven speed over 35 knots and 1,000-pound payload as a force multiplier that protects personnel in high-risk areas.

On Monday, the U.S. military hit two Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps vessels attempting to emplace mines and a surface-to-air missile site near Bandar Abbas, according to U.S. Central Command. Capt. Tim Hawkins called the limited self-defense action necessary against threats to American troops and warplanes, while stressing restraint during the April 8 ceasefire that followed a U.S.-Iran war starting February 28, 2026. The strikes came as Pakistan-mediated talks continue over Iran's nuclear program, missiles, sanctions, and the vital oil chokepoint strait, which Iran has partially closed prompting a U.S. naval blockade.
