American torpedo sank IRIS frigate
An American torpedo, which, according to Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth, was used to sink the Iranian frigate IRIS Dena in the Indian Ocean, costs about $4.2 million. The warhead of this torpedo weighs 295 kg and is designed to rupture a ship's structure by creating a shockwave and a 'vapor bubble,' causing the vessel to collapse from within. Hegseth previously called this incident the first ship sinking by torpedo since World War II.
