Drone boat rescued two US aviators after their Army helicopter went down near the Strait of Hormuz

A U.S. military drone boat rescued two Army aviators after their Apache helicopter crashed near the Strait of Hormuz. The 24-foot Corsair drone, operated by the Navy’s Task Force 59, marked the first known at-sea drone rescue by the U.S. military. The crash, under investigation, occurred amid heightened tensions between Iran, the U.S., and Israel, with U.S. President Donald Trump expressing optimism about a potential deal with Iran.
