What is a salvo? 2 missiles? With the available boats they have it can't be many. Aegis can track and engage more than 100 targets at over 100 nautical mile range. Unless they run out of ammo I don 't think Iran has enough missiles and boats to do much damage.
Again, why do you think the the US Navy will attack Iran?
sus if nag nakig gubat pa nang iran sa us, it would have been as easy as iraq
