#1 Looks like the Iranians are getting jittery on that rumored spring US 'offense window' opportunity. A move designed explicitly to allow the Russian intelligence gathering machine to track the 'US response' and coordinate those logistics with the Iranians through their mutual back door. The war games will also tend to 'throw water' on the initiative of a presumed preemption on the US's part in affect, prodding the United States to 'put up or shut up' in world public opinion. As long as the Iranians don't lay sea mines while there in the Strait; and don't occupy the center (ie; a symbolic blockaid), it may go off without a shot being fired!

That's if there is a 'US response'.
