The incident is the latest in a series of similar actions by Iranian vessels this year, but the first reported since Republican Donald Trump won the U.S. presidential election on Nov. 8. The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the incident took place when a Navy MH-60 helicopter flew within half a mile (0.8 km) of two Iranian vessels in international waters. One of the vessels pointed a weapon at the helicopter, the U.S. officials said. [ Source ] View the full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or would that be breaking the Obama rules of engagement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering Iran's alliance with Russia and Trump's acquiescence to Putin, it will not matter who is sitting in the White House, the response would be the same.
