USA on WAR: DEBUNKED: Claims of USNS Robert E. Peary Sinking
Recent viral posts claiming the USNS Robert E. Peary was sunk by 30,000 Iranian missiles are false.
Ship Status: Live AIS tracking shows the Robert E. Peary is currently operational and safe in the Atlantic/Caribbean—thousands of miles away from the conflict.
Math Check: The claim of 30,000 missiles is physically impossible, and the $58 billion valuation is exaggerated by over 100x the ship's actual cost.
The Reality: While the U.S. and Iran are engaged in a serious naval escalation, verify your sources. Disinformation is a major tool in modern warfare.
