Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13593627 This article was first published by Voltairenet in other languages in September 2014. The State Department acknowledged that the crew of the destroyer USS Donald Cook has been gravely demoralized ever since their vessel was flown over in the Black Sea by a Russian Sukhoi-24 (Su-24) fighter jet which carried neither bombs nor missiles but only an electronic warfare device. US destroyer Donald Cook enters Black Sea amid Ukraine tension This video shows the USS Donald Cook sailing into the Black Sea to position itself near Russia’s territorial waters. USS Donald Cook, a destroyer equipped with the powerful Aegis missile defense system, has crossed through the Bosphorus and entered the Black Sea under a Turkish flag. Russia claims that NATO is assembling a battle fleet in the region. Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense - FTM 04-1 Aegis Flight Test Mission 04-1. Shows video from Aegis intercept of a ballistic missile. Video from target at about 2:15, intercept starting at about 6:15. On 10 April 2014, the USS Donald Cook entered the waters of the Black Sea and on 12 April a Russian Su-24 tactical bomber flew over the vessel triggering an incident that, according to several media reports, completely demoralized its crew, so much so that the Pentagon issued a protest [1]. The USS Donald Cook (DDG-75) is a 4th generation guided missile destroyer whose key weapons are Tomahawk cruise missiles with a range of up to 2,500 kilometers, and capable of carrying nuclear explosives. This ship carries 56 Tomahawk missiles in standard mode, and 96 missiles in attack mode. The US destroyer is equipped with the most recent Aegis Combat System. It is an integrated naval weapons systems which can link together the missile defense systems of all vessels embedded within the same network, so as to ensure the detection, tracking and destruction of hundreds of targets at the same time. In addition, the USS Donald Cook is equipped with 4 large radars, whose power is comparable to that of several stations. For protection, it carries more than fifty anti-aircraft missiles of various types. Meanwhile, the Russian Su-24 that buzzed the USS Donald Cook carried neither bombs nor missiles but only a basket mounted under the fuselage, which, according to the Russian newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta [2], contained a Russian electronic warfare device called Khibiny. As the Russian jet approached the US vessel, the electronic device disabled all radars, control circuits, systems, information transmission, etc. on board the US destroyer. In other words, the all-powerful Aegis system, now hooked up - or about to be - with the defense systems installed on NATO’s most modern ships was shut down, as turning off the TV set with the remote control. The Russian Su-24 then simulated a missile attack against the USS Donald Cook, which was left literally deaf and blind. As if carrying out a training exercise, the Russian aircraft - unarmed - repeated the same maneuver 12 times before flying away. After that, the 4th generation destroyer immediately set sail towards a port in Romania. Since that incident, which the Atlanticist media have carefully covered up despite the widespread reactions sparked among defense industry experts, no US ship has ever approached Russian territorial waters again. According to some specialized media, 27 sailors from the USS Donald Cook requested to be relieved from active service. Vladimir Balybine - director of the research center on electronic warfare and the evaluation of so-called "visibility reduction" techniques attached to the Russian Air Force Academy - made the following comment: "The more a radio-electronic system is complex, the easier it is to disable it through the use of electronic warfare."

False Rumours travel fast and cause panic its all part of the bull shitting war-games. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 72694605 Netherlands 10/03/2016 04:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why did the ship leave the black sea so hurriedly? Think about that.... Fact is that Russia did not give away any clues as to their technology, they merely fired a warning shot in a last ditch attempt to stop the insane leaders of the US, by basically demonstrating their abilities. Unfortunately because the Western press has not published it stupid US sheep do not believe it. The insane leaders of the US do not care about their people, they do not care if millions of Americans die. Do you need proof? Where is your fall out shelters? Russia has enough for all their citizens. Now think about that. Your leaders want you dead and they foam at the mouth in glee thinking about a couple of hundred dead white Americans. You'll be a minority....finally. |

Why do you think the US won't send any ships close to Iran? Because, they have missles capable of sinking aircraft carriers. If you think other countries don't have better defense capabilities. Then, you're sadly mistaken. And, you know what. Those same people were educated right here in the US by our universities. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 72069981 United States 10/15/2016 10:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Even if they did jam the electronics they are trained in the old ways too. You think they had this technology during world war 2? Nope and they did just fine. Sure technology can be a benefit, but when it fails you have to revert back to the old ways. Also if the russians do have this technology and showed us that is stupidity. We spend more than every other country combined on our military. Most of that money goes into research and development. They could find a way to counter this is a month. I'm personally calling bs on this. Putin would never show his cards this soon. |
