The Navy will deploy guided-missile destroyers, more than 100 land- and sea-based combat aircraft, and several sea and air drones to guide international commercial ships out of the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. Central Command officials said Sunday.

Control over the straight is one of the main reasons they’re still geopolitically relevant. I don’t see them giving it up for good, they will at least say that the blockade is still on. Given they have a lot of naval drones and missiles which are not 100% countered by US hardware, I don’t foresee any insurance companies co-signing on commercial ships crossing the straight.
