According to General Morteza Qorbani - advisor to the Iranian military command: "The US is sending two warships to the area. If they do the slightest stupid thing, we will use two missiles or two secret weapons to sink the ship, the crew and the plane into the sea." He did not reveal any information about the secret weapon.
General Qorbani made the statement after the US announced sending 1,500 more troops to the Middle East to strengthen defenses against Iran.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif criticized this as an extremely dangerous move, threatening international peace and security.
