Destroyers USS Donald Cook and USS Roosevelt are expected to arrive in Black Sea tomorrow and Thursday.

Thread: Russia warns US warships to stay away from Crimea "for your own good"

Good.

Hope they both sink to the bottom of the ocean.

Oh by the way, fuck you and your gay ass Twatter link, punk.

Maybe I got destroyers and such mixed up.. but I thought the USS Roosevelt was over in the south China sea.

Pentagon Will Not Confirm Reports Of US Navy Deployment To Black Sea Next Week - Spokesman

QUOTE:

"We routinely operate and conduct our operations in the Black Sea and throughout the European Command AOR, and as you also know, I am not going to forecast or speak about hypotheticals or about future operations. This is a normal evolution for the United States military and we obviously coordinate the entry into the Black Sea through the Montreux Convention with Turkey " Kirby said. "I won't speak to the press report that you are referring to specifically... I am not going to confirm the Turkey press reports that you are referring to."

Two US warships, destroyers Roosevelt and Donald Cook, will pass through the Bosphorus into the Black Sea on April 14-15 amid the escalation of tensions between Russia and Ukraine, Turkish broadcaster NTV reported on Friday.

According to the Navy, the Donald Cook is headed back to its new base, Mayport, but...

Roosevelt and Donald Cook were in ROTA, SPAIN.

That the Navy is not going to openly tell the world that its two destroyers are on the way to the Black Sea seems entirely plausible to me.

April 14/15


Very bad juju those days.

A Russian Plane Zaps U.S. Warship’s Missile Defense System
By Gary North

The Tea Party Economist

November 14, 2014

An unarmed Russian bomber in April flew over a high-tech U.S. ship. A crew member pressed a button. Poof! No more missile defense system on the ship. No more radar. The ship became a defenseless floating coffin.

Then the plane flew over the blind ship a dozen times. Basically, it was “Nyah, nyah, nyah.”

This story got no play in American media.

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.

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, 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.

I hope the USS Donald Cook doesn't have the same experience it had in 2014??

Sorry OP for posting a similar article.

UH..SO, THEN YER OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTUH...RIGHT?
OR ARE U JUST A STUPID FUCKIN LIMEY?!

Clearly, the Russians have some sort of technology that we should be wary of.

This could well be a sacrifice play.


"Remember the Donald Cook!"

AT LEAST TWO MAJOR 'THINGS' WILL HAPPEN...UH.

Yes...on the surface at least:


Possible Nork Rocket Test AND Possible Entry of Two US Destroyers into the Black Sea


But that may not be all.

Fuck Nato

THE IRAN ISRAEL MOSSAD STUFF RIGHT NOW WILL ALSO BE A BIGGER DEAL IN A DAY OR SO!

A Time-Lapse Map of Every Nuclear Explosion Since 1945 - by Isao Hashimoto

Japanese artist Isao Hashimoto has created a beautiful, undeniably scary time-lapse map of the 2053 nuclear explosions which have taken place between 1945 and 1998, beginning with the Manhattan Project's "Trinity" test near Los Alamos and concluding with Pakistan's nuclear tests in May of 1998. This leaves out North Korea's two alleged nuclear tests in this past decade (the legitimacy of both of which is not 100% clear).

Each nation gets a blip and a flashing dot on the map whenever they detonate a nuclear weapon, with a running tally kept on the top and bottom bars of the screen. Hashimoto, who began the project in 2003, says that he created it with the goal of showing"the fear and folly of nuclear weapons." It starts really slow — if you want to see real action, skip ahead to 1962 or so — but the buildup becomes overwhelming.

I will be happy if Endgame is wrong, but like I said...


He has a good track record and there are other reasons to consider this credible right now.
