1. References: None

2. Issue: Commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman have long been at risk of being hailed, queried, boarded, detained, or seized by Iranian forces. Iranian forces have historically utilized small boats and helicopters during boarding operations and have attempted to force commercial vessels into Iranian territorial waters, including as recently as February 3, 2026.

The U.S. government is continually assessing the maritime security situation in the region to identify and differentiate threats and safeguard freedom of navigation, ensure the free flow of commerce, and protect U.S. vessels, personnel, and interests.

3. Guidance:  If hailed by Iranian forces, U.S.-flagged commercial vessels should provide vessel name and flag state and affirm that they are proceeding in accordance with

However, an Iranian official subsequently told Reuters that there were no such plans and that media reports to the contrary were wrong.

In spite of errors and weaknesses the AIS in combination with low orbit satellites and affordable connectivity with low latency, will create a land of opportunity for the marine traffic and commercial shipping. The race has already started, so therefore we think everyone working in the maritime industry needs to have some basic AIS knowledge.

The short history

Automatic identification system or AIS for short and the AIS technology is an old technology and operates within the VHF radio band. The marine AIS was introduced to prevent collisions among large vessels at sea where the vessels were outside the range of shore-based systems. From 2002 the IMO Convention for the Safety Of Life At Sea (SOLAS) Regulation V/19.2.4

El secretario general de la OTAN está siendo criticado por sus comentarios desdeñosos sobre la idea de una futura independencia europea de la protección de Washington.

Las tensiones se apaciguaron gracias a un acuerdo mediado por Rutte para impedir la invasión, del que se
