Personal opinion, I do think this is highly unlikely

Sudan is a massive country and having a supply line from the Darfur to Port Sudan across the Nile will be a nearly impossible task for a group the size of the RSF even with South Sudan and Ethiopia aligned

We must not forget that Eritrea is also a very close ally of Al-Burhan, with Afwerki visiting Port Sudan just last month

Eritrean forces are already involved in Sudan and I highly doubt they would simply let the RSF waltz into the coast

Personal opinion, I think Iran should send a missile or two into Burj Khalifa so they'll stop supplying the RSF and focus on rebuilding that tumour instead.

At first this seems to be very dumb. Like isn’t it obvious that this is not a container ship? With all the launchers and radars sticking out, also the whole world knowing about this ship— who are they trying to deceive?

Well, they are not attempting to deceive anyone. This isn’t about hiding or pretending to be civilian.

—It’s a cheap hull with missile modules packed on.

—The containers aren’t camouflage. They’re logistics. Standardised, modular, easy to load and replace.

—This ship isn’t meant to fight like a warship. It’s meant to add missile volume. Fire a salvo and be expendable, basically a floating missile rack.

At least Nigerians appear to know about it this time.

INDOPACOM on suicide watch about how many tomahawks Trump used. While Hegseth is simultaneously cheering the use and crying because of low missile stock.

Ukraine general staff said it completely withdrew from Siversk on 23rd of December.

Looks like someone got his job offer as secret spy rejected by the Japanese military and hasn’t taken it well

Navy likely just wants to get Trump to give them money so they presented a sacrifice. Renaming DDX (next generation destroyer) a replacement for a Arleigh Burke-Burke-Class destroyer and Ticonderoga-Class cruiser.

➖️➕️
It has notably similar armament having 96 VLS cells swapable for 36 LML cells, 2x 600kw lasers, 2x RAM, same flight deck, machinery, radar and other sensors, electronic warfare, range.

🤲🤴
Stuff like 2 guns, railgun and its enormous size are made to please Trump's ego about having his name on his childhood-age like ship.

➕️➖️⏳️
The timeline and scale are also notably similar. Both classes said to be aiming at 20-25 ships start construction in 2030s. For the DDX it's start was pushed back to 2034 at earliest due to lack of funds and construction capacity.

🤴💸🇺🇸🛠📈
May the additional funds allocated by the emperors pleased ego be used to grow construction/design capacity to deliver DDX faster.
