I haven't seen a report of this anywhere else. Any of you Navy types know anything about this?

The Cold War ENDED almost 25 years ago and WE WON!!!

No need for further military R&D. Now let’s move on and show that we can bomb Botswana into submission.

Just a dumb old grunt here, but I call BS on this article.

And how in hell can a military person RESIGN from active duty? Hey Top, I resign. Yeah. Sure. LMAO

The truth can be verified by the DOD and told to the public.

However, since the election of the “Communist in Chief”, NOTHING CAN BE BELIEVED from the government...PERIOD!

Now we find ourselves in a real fix since all statements from the government (on all levels from local to national) are first, assumed to be a lie unless proven otherwise.

This is just how far down the sh.t hole we have come.

Is boolshiite.

Part is not boolshiite which is that any USN units operating in Black Sea are toasted blini in the event of hostility. Don't call it "BLACK SEA," Call it "Lake Russki."

SU-24? Is Russki A-10 equivalent, only faster. In fact, look like the losing Lockheed entry in the A-10 competition of yesteryear.

It looks like a classic EMP attack.

Hard to believe........but would not be surprised by our diminishing sea power under our current commie/socialist administration. They’ve cut the military, brought in women and homosexuals to help run fighting ships.....we’re in deep do do.

Considering that Russia a few months ago trumpeted that the Ukrainian Navy’s flagship had defected while it was returning from exercises with NATO, tells you something. The ship docked at Odessa rather than sailing to Sevastopol and surrendering.

The Russian flight was a PR gimmick. The news and story line plays well in Moscow and it’s music to the ears of pro Russkis everywhere.

While this article is likely BS, we know the Russians, and the Chinese, have been working on countermeasures for US tech for years now.

GPS spoofers we already know about. Sat attack systems and Drone communications scramblers have been publicly talked about, while EMP bursters have been rumored for over a decade now.

Who knows what else is in the pipeline, especially with Chinese cooperation.

We can’t expect our opponents are going to sit idly by while we go stagnant.

beh.

That aircraft was detected WAY out and the ship wasn't going to fire absent being fired upon.

If ROE changes to "fire on detection and confirmation of target", everything changes.

That's not to say that I would dismiss Russian capabilities out of hand. They are making a small quantity of good stuff and revolutionizing their C3. Of course they are a formidable power now, and getting stronger.

I don’t think Vlad would’ve let this trick out of the goody bag until the balloon REALLY went up.

After the incident, the foreign media reported that "Donald Cook" was rushed into a port in Romania. There all the 27 members of the crew filed a letter of resignation. It seems that all 27 people have written that they are not going to risk their lives. This is indirectly confirmed by the Pentagon statement according to which the action demoralized the crew of the American ship.

LOL! They had me until this line. All bullshit.
