Communications with the boarding team were lost at the time the boarding ended - at 0910. # The helicopter crew returned to the scene and reported that the two boats were being escorted by Iranian Islamic Republican Guard Navy vessels towards the Shatt al Arab waterway, inside Iranian territorial waters. [/quote] First of all, how many boats does the HMS Cornwall have, and how many were actually in use at the time? More than two? Second, how is it possible that the HMS Cornwall did not see the Iranian warships with radar? If they were seen, why were they not under observation by the helicopter? Seems strange to me. Very strange, as a matter of fact. Where was the helicopter? Did it return to the HMS Cornwall? I need the link explaining the shallow water thing, please.
