45 yards?

That’s way close. Stupid close.

I was in the Arctic and we were operating in the ice with a Canadian Icebreaker, the Grosilliers.

Our captains were trying to figure out who’s dick was bigger and started doing stupid things in the ice. The Canadian breaker came within about 50 yards of our stern breaking ice at about 10 knots.

Good thing he knew his ice. Multiyear ice tends to toss the boat to one side of your trackline or the other.

It’s past time for a luyang destroyer to meet the bottom of the ocean.

Sounds like the old "chicken games" between the 6th Fleet and the 5th Eskadra ...

The only way the Chinese can destroy anything is with a Kamikaze move

If the ChiComs want to play are ramming the it is high time to take the USS Missouri out of retirement as it has 12 inch thick belt armor and would go through their ships like toilet paper.

Apparent photo of the very close encounter between the Chinese destroyer and US destroyer in the south China sea a few days ago. Looks aggressive enough!

Seems like just a perfect ‘oops, didn’t think it was loaded’ incident with a forward gun.
