Confused reading this as “US Carny”

It’s the classic bearded Anti-missile defense system at all carnivals

We’re they shot at it or did they enter it’s dome while going elsewhere? Seems real fucking dumb for the Yemeni to shoot AT an American ship

Likely closer to the latter. Presumably Yemeni ordnance targeting Israel and the USS Carney intercepted it. Which I assume is its current orders and reason for it being tasked to the area.

They’ve done it before with the USS Mason.

I hope they also shoot down missiles fired from israel.
