A US Navy destroyer had another close encounter with an Iranian Revolutionary Guard "fast attack craft" in the Persian Gulf Monday.
Two US officials told Fox News that the Iranian ship came within 1,000 yards of the guided missile destroyer USS Mahan with its weapons manned.
The officials said the Mahan altered course to avoid the Iranian warship, sounded the danger signal, fired flares and manned its own weapons.
The Iranian ship did not come closer than 1,000 yards and no warning shots were fired.
In January, USS Mahan fired warning shots at an Iranian warship near the Strait of Hormuz.
