Dear Khrushchev, or How dangerous are the US aircraft carriers for Russia

Speaking about the further development of armaments and the possibility of a hypothetical confrontation between the armed forces of Russia and the United States, more and more foreign media and experts are thinking that the US attack aircraft carrier groups are not such a panacea for solving all problems.

Dear Khrushchev, or How dangerous are the US aircraft carriers for Russia




Much has already been said on this subject. Both Americans and Russians. The truth, as always, is somewhere in the middle. But what is happening today in our army in terms of re-equipment, actually makes us somewhat rethink the understanding that has developed over the years.

11 US aircraft carriers with their almost 1 000 airplanes and helicopters is a really impressive force. Able to bring war (theoretically) to the territory of any country. In practice, everything is not so beautiful.

AUG is not a small target. This is a warrant of one to two dozen ships. Yes, there have been cases of “loss” of AUG, but this is more a part of the half-a-billdote.

In general, the AUG is dangerous on 100% for those countries that have nothing to oppose to the strength of the group. Countries whose military potential is comparable to the Yugoslav or Libyan countries, of course, can only “pinch” the AUG.

But when it comes to those countries that are armed with sufficient means of response, both quantitatively and qualitatively (Russia, China, India), the alignment changes.

Indeed, is AUG so terrible, how are we drawing it in the very near future? If you look at the classic composition, then yes, it looks impressive.

The flagship of the Nimitz or Ford-type aircraft carrier grouping with a deck regiment based on it aviation (60-80 aircraft and 10-12 helicopters).

The air defense division of the grouping is a 1-2 cruiser of the Ticondeur type. All Ticondeur-type cruisers are equipped with the Aegis Marine Management Complex (AEGIS) and Standart SAM systems (SM-2, SM-3), which are very modern. weapons. Some cruisers may be equipped with installations for launching Tomahawks.

3-4 destroyers of the Arly Burk type with depth charges and torpedoes to fight enemy submarines are responsible for anti-submarine defense, and some can also be equipped with Tomahawks.

AUG can also include in its composition and submarines of the type "Los Angeles" with torpedo armament and "Tomahawk" (with the launch through torpedo tubes).

Plus supply vessels. Up to 8 transports, tankers and other ships.

Overall, 14-15 ships. Pretty impressive goal, which is simply not able to quietly go somewhere. At least not in modern conditions.

I remember how in our youth we were frightened by these aircraft carriers. They say they will come and bring us war. And the States will sit there overseas. Well, about the thousands of missiles, cruise and conventional. Then the "Pershing" in Europe still stood.

But over time, understanding of the situation became more and more. It became clear that aircraft carriers are being created today in order to impose democracy on small and mostly defenseless states, examples have already been cited.

It is difficult to say whether the plans of the American command include the promotion of an AUG (or several) in the region of Kamchatka or the Kola Peninsula, but today such a strategy will surprise.

In general, if according to the mind, in the case of "what" all US aircraft carriers will not have to fly in full steam to the shores of Russia, but on the contrary, to drop as far as possible from them.

I am not an expert, but the logic of today's time simply does not allow us to imagine an attack on Russia with the help of aircraft carrier aircraft. This is too risky and (not least) expensive.

There is an opinion in expert circles that aircraft carriers as a means of fights between superpowers are somewhat outdated. And the matter is that, first of all, new weapons systems with which AUG cannot oppose anything, and secondly - again money.

Still, the aircraft carrier (since the Second World War) is a very fat target. And very expensive.

Nikita Khrushchev, who was criticized a lot for distortions, nevertheless hit the army hard and the fleet, deciding that you can fight only ICBMs. However, what we have today is surprisingly reminiscent of the Khrushchev era.

Yes, the fleet is like the American one. It is a fact. VKS quantitatively also inferior to the US Air Force. Also we will not argue.

But since we are fighting on our territory, we still have what? That's right, air defense for airplanes and missiles for ships. In addition to the capabilities of the fleet and VKS. And one more thing in the stash.

For example, "Zircon".

The rocket began to be made this year, and in 2018 will begin to enter service.

The flight distance is about 400 km, the speed to 6M (has reached 8M under test).
Warhead weight 400 kg.

And, of course, "Caliber" in all guises. Yes, it flies not so fast, but far away.

The most clever thing that the Russian designers could only do was to unify the launch containers. "Zircon", "Caliber", "Onyx" - no matter what. More precisely, what will be at hand, then run.

Yes, "Onyx" also should not be discounted.

Given that all three products exist in the surface, underwater and aeronautical variants, the breadth of application possibilities is impressive.

This is especially true of the hypersonic Zircon, which has already caused an unhealthy revival in the stalls. This refers to the October proposal from Great Britain (naturally, jointly) with the USA to Russia and China. Gentlemen have suggested abandoning the development of hypersonic weapons.

A certain report was presented in which the hypersonic weapon was recognized as a threat capable of starting the World War III on a par with the nuclear one.

It is clear that if such a weapon would appear to the British or Americans, then it would serve exclusively the cause of peace and stabilization. But Russia and China, of course, can only use it for aggressive purposes.

The American magazine National Interest, whose materials we often pay attention to, called the Zircon rocket a serious challenge for the US Navy. The Americans also noticed that the rocket is quite versatile, so not only Russian naval ships, but also other types of armed forces can use the Zircon.

Yes, “Zircon” can start from almost any platform: from cruisers, frigates, corvettes, boats. With nuclear and diesel electric shock submarines. You can start with Tu-160, Tu-95 and Tu-22М3 bombers, Su-34 fighter-bombers and even Su-35 and MiG-35 fighters. In the end, this rocket can be based on the shore.

As well as a carrier may not necessarily be a cruiser or a submarine, but even an ordinary cargo ship with an installed container.

The latter, of course, did not make Americans happy.

But - they made it up themselves, and be upset.

But what most puzzled American experts was the price. 1,5-2 million dollars depending on the modification. It has already been considered that heavy injuries can inflict "Zircons" 7-10, both at the expense of the warhead, and at the expense of its own kinetic energy. 6M is a lot. Although one rocket, pierced the side and got into the gas storage facility will be more than enough for a show with special effects.

And, as American experts note, today the US Navy is virtually unable to oppose anything to Zircons. The chance of interception even by modern complexes is negligible.

Perspective, if 10 "Zircons" (worth 20 million dollars), caught in the aircraft carrier "Gerald Ford" (worth 12,8 billion dollars), will bring it down, for some reason extremely negative effect on the Americans.

Whether the price does not suit the rocket, and the US Navy aircraft carrier must be picked with products worth tens of millions, or the fact that if it is launched, it will definitely fly.

A lot of experts said that the Zircon rocket marked the end of aircraft carriers as platforms for modern warfare. Of course, a bit premature.

Carriers are still the perfect tool to frighten, threaten, intimidate and attack. For those who can not adequately respond.

So for a long time aircraft carriers have quite a normal future for themselves. Yes, from the point of view of morality, it stinks slightly, but there's nothing to be done about it. It happened historically, thanks to the glorious US Navy.

I am very pleased that in the United States they seriously think that Russian missiles pose a serious threat to the instruments of attack of the Americans. And that the appearance in the zone of action of our missile systems can entail a very tangible impact on both US property and reputation.

Today, maybe not by 100%, but in the near future, our army and navy will be able to fully protect themselves from any possible aggressions by the very same US Navy AUG, which has been a scarecrow for the whole world for a long time.

Russia has indeed made a huge step towards full security in the very industry that has always been difficult for the United States. Our missiles are far superior to all the potential ones possess. C-300 and C-400, "Onyx", "Caliber", "Iskander", "Zircon" - the whole complex of defense is able to resist the desire of any AUG to visit our waters.

Naturally, AUG will remain a significant force. In addition to the usual functions of the impact on the country, "demanding democratization," aircraft carriers can be a shield, a floating airfield on the approaches to the borders of the United States.

Another question: who needs the “menacing forces” to go to these very borders?

But the main thing is to forget about our borders. For the first time. And then we'll see.

    The most important thing is not to forget about June 22, 1941 ... this date has cost our people dearly.
    Well, aircraft carriers are just a tool in the dirty and bloody hands of Americans ...
    but as they say on every nut there is a bolt ... never when I didn’t believe that the US aircraft carrier could not be destroyed in open combat ... it would be ... there would be a desire and incentive ... I’m sure our armed forces found ways and methods to do this .

      At least someone expressed a sober thought. AUGs are designed to solve the tasks of monitoring maritime communications, naval blockade, but as the main means of confronting a serious adversary, they are not suitable. Attacks of Russia can not be afraid. Over our history, we could be attacked so many times when we had nothing to answer, but there was no attack. After the revolution, during the civil war, it was easy to conquer us. Whole country. She really wasn’t even then. Nothing happened. After World War II, when the USSR did not have large human reserves and an atomic bomb, and the United States already had several dozen, a huge fleet of strategic bombers — they could destroy the whole country in a month — did not. Therefore, the horror stories about "The West, which wants to conquer and divide us" - this is for those who are dim-witted by the mind who do not know the history of the twentieth century.

        Aw, citizen, your last name is not Stankevich for an hour? Or you list how many times in our history we were attacked?
        After the revolution, during the civil war, it was easy to conquer us. Whole country. She really wasn’t even then. Nothing happened.
        Nothing straight? There were no British and Americans near Arkhangelsk? There were no French and British in the South and in the Crimea? There were no Americans and Japanese in the Far East? There were no British in the Caucasus and Central Asia? There were no Germans in Ukraine and Belarus? There were no whites in the end? Quickly to school, study, study and study again.
        After World War II, when the USSR did not have large human reserves and an atomic bomb, and the United States already had several dozen, a huge fleet of strategic bombers — they could destroy the whole country in a month — did not.
        Oh, wasn’t it? And the most efficient seven-million-strong army in Germany, capable of reaching the English Channel in a few weeks?
        How many bombs did the United States have at that time? And what about Churchill’s plan to attack the Soviet troops in Germany?
        Turns away from your demagoguery, you can immediately see the national traitor. Rhetoric like "no one will attack us" has never been brought to good, and in the end it has always cost us dearly. So get the citizen out of here while the wind is without stones. We ourselves will figure out how to protect our homeland.

          And what of this ??? Did they really decide to fight the USSR ??? There was no such thing, but if they had decided, then their victory would be only a matter of time. Explore the battles of the Czechoslovak corps when they drove whole armies of red. 1 building !!! And why? Because the personnel corps is the army, and the crowd of people with rifles is the crowd, and even if they are 20 or 50 times more. It’s just that the West didn’t want to occupy us and that’s it. They bet on whites, but not actively. They lost. They had no task to fight the USSR.

            Well, it is essential ... laughing Napoleon also thought that with the capture of Moscow, victory over Russia only It's a question of time... laughing laughing laughing And Hitler believed that with the access to the Arkhangelsk-Stalingrad-Baku line, the war with the USSR would end.

            You already wrote this nonsense about the "crowd with rifles." The Red Army won (apart from other reasons) because it had ammunition production at its side. And your "regular military" were forced to go on bayonet attacks on Karl machine guns, on-machine gun bayonet attacks.

          And the USSR’s plan to attack the Western countries, and the USSR’s policy of proclaiming world evil all the capitalist governments of the world ??? Devices of the world revolution with the destruction of statehood of all capitalist countries ???

          Or do you think that the West should have applauded us when we proclaimed such a policy ??? We already attacked them throughout the 20th century, and they defended themselves against communism, which we wanted to spread around the world by force. Therefore, you evaluate history in a complex and do not forget important facts.

            Oh how? Well, let’s omit Finland, for your sore consciousness the reasons for the Soviet-Finnish war are too difficult to explain. But I wonder, according to your logic, apparently the USSR attacked Nazi Germany? Apparently we attacked the "peaceful" Americans in Korea and Vietnam? About more than 70 conflicts unleashed by the United States, I will simply remain modestly silent.

              Goebbels said that, it seems. There are other opinions. It consists in the fact that the German-Soviet Union could not end in anything other than war, the question is the timing. Absolutely all participants understood this, and many non-participants too. The war of the USSR and the Reich is a joint decision of two governments. Similarly, the war of Japan and the United States is a joint decision of both Tokyo and Washington. The difference is that the FDR set up well (although he did not plan to lose the Pacific Fleet, only the Philippines), and Comrade Stalin turned up much less successfully, barely dismissed it later.

              With this phrase you answered all your questions. Our “historical science” has been doing this for the entire 20th century - “omitting facts that are not profitable to recall.” And the paradox is that as a rule key facts are omitted, which can fundamentally change the whole assessment of history. I'm sorry that you taught this particular story. In part, I also found this, but when I saw logical inconsistencies, I began to analyze the issue in more detail and I think that the history of Russia over the 20th century is a big lie. Now they are trying to somehow lead to a less historical reality, but cheers-patriotism and anti-Americanism are here to the last. It is better to believe in the "humiliated and offended", which the whole world should give everything for free in the grave of life, than objectively evaluate history and its role in it.

The more I study it, the more I become convinced that there was never any real goal to destroy the USSR. There were plans for a war, but no one wanted to start it first in the West and the goal of destroying the USSR was never set.

          Before the American strategists, the fighters of that time did not reach. Therefore, your argument is not good. They could bomb everything they wanted with impunity.

          In my opinion, the maximum was 12 km. I don’t know a single fighter that could fight at that height then. Therefore, if one wanted to launch a nuclear strike, no one could stop the United States. Full load of the aircraft is not necessary, only one bomb. Could destroy all the major industrial centers.

                      In Soviet times there was a terrible shout of the SOVIET propaganda newspaper "Pravda". And this terrible press organ of the CPSU, as it turned out after the collapse of the USSR, never lied. This became the reason for his inefficient work. It is a pity in the 90s I did not have a computer. There was an interesting program: liberal-minded figures swaggered over the Soviet agitprop for the lack of courage to lie for something to fulfill the main task: the formation of public opinion in the right way.
                      And then, in 1993, I listened to selected chapters from the Icebreaker by Volodya Rezun on the kitchen radio (central, from Maskva). After these broadcasts, I was very disappointed in the ideas of liberalism, because I belong to the generation that the terrible Soviet regime forced to be educated. Believe me, it’s easier for me to explain or understand something in communication with a graduate of the Soviet vocational school than with the holder of a modern diploma of higher education.

                During the war with Japan, the American B-29 was discovered by two pairs of Yak-9 aircraft, intercepted and fired at the Korean airfield Kanko, where the Soviet, 14th Pacific Air Force fighter regiment was based. As a result of the shelling of the B-29, the first engine (far left) caught fire, and he immediately landed at the Kanko airfield.

                  It seems that there was a high-altitude modification, but the experimental one was more than 13 km. In the Air Force they were practically nonexistent. There was nothing to defend against a blow when applied. If you wanted to strike, there were no objective obstacles. Why are you arguing with this? And do not forget about the discovery.

                  During the war with Japan, the American B-29 was discovered by two pairs of Yak-9 aircraft, intercepted and fired at the Korean airfield Kanko, where the Soviet, 14th Pacific Air Force fighter regiment was based. As a result of the shelling of the B-29, the first engine (far left) caught fire, and he immediately landed at the Kanko airfield.

                  You see, hunting super-fortresses is much easier if the Americans consider you an ally.
                  Speaking of that. Mustang pilots who attacked Kozhedub over Berlin, according to the captured prisoner, mixed up La with Foka. Which Japanese aircraft were mixed up with super-strength?

                        I looked at the information on this occasion. Everything was much simpler: the Americans, instead of walking along the air corridor, systematically shortened the path, flying directly over our base and ignoring all warnings. And once the pilot flying to intercept could not stand it.

A pair of Yak-9 flew out to intercept it (the leader - lt Feofanov, the follower - ml lt Zizevsky | After 10 minutes, the second pair was lifted (the leader - lt Velik, the follower - ml l-1 Mdivani).

One option cited by you means that some psycho deliberately shot down an ally, the second option - after the war, in November, they fired on a plane that participated in the evacuation of American prisoners of war from Manchuria. Perhaps these are not two options, but two different stories.

From Soviet - there was an experimental Yak-3 machine with a VK-107 engine with which the ceiling went 13 km. These engines were installed on the post-war Yaki-9 (U, P and UT).

                  It is difficult to be sure of this, given that the losses from IA and ZA amounted to 147 vehicles. The rest are lost for other reasons. Including written off for combat damage, but not shot down. And cheating is not good.

Nevertheless, as it turned out, they were shot down in packs. Or do you think that the Japanese had better aviation than in the USSR in the summer of 45? If so, then let me disagree with you.

                      They were shot down for the Japanese because they did not bomb from a height of 12.000 meters. And mostly from 6-7.000. All the same they bombed with ordinary bombs. And it was necessary to fall into more or less targeted targets. Factories and so on.


                      140 shot down for thousands and thousands of sorties over the course of a year and a half - you call "shot down in batches"?


                      Try to calculate the% shot down, say, with a single attack on the atomic bombing of 100 B-29 without reducing them by 6-7.000 meters .... they did not need special accuracy in that case. That's about it ...

                      I argued that the Soviet aviation could not do anything with them. It should not be understood that superfortress was a galactic cruiser. This should be understood so that in the summer of 45 aircraft losses were less than 1 per 1000 sorties. In the most serious battle - a raid on Tokyo on May 25/26 - 26 of 464 vehicles were lost. The city was almost completely destroyed.

                      Naturally, during the raids on the USSR there could be losses. Especially if upon destruction, for example, Ulyanovsk (all Soviet aluminum) would have to decline in order to be guaranteed to get into the plant.

                      However, there are no chances to protect the city. This is called "could not do anything"

              The USSR at the time of 1945 had something to get their bombers. And there wouldn’t be any reason for them to take off if the USSR would capture all airfields in Europe on dry land.

              In 1950, at the joint exercises of the Air Force and Air Defense of the country, air defense officers managed to pass a whole 45 tbad through the Moscow air defense zone.
              On the reflective side:
              1. The main defect in the actions of the reflecting side is the unpunished passage of the main forces of the attacking side's aviation (45 Tbad) through the Moscow Air Defense Region to a target located in the interior of the country.
              Despite the fact that the flight of the main forces and auxiliary groups of the attacking aviation was timely detected by the BNOC air defense service of the country, the command of the Moscow Air Defense District incorrectly assessed the air situation and did not attach importance to the reports of the BNOC posts on the rotation of the main forces to the south. A single aircraft, following a given route 400 km from the actual flight route of the main forces, was incorrectly and biasedly considered by the command of the Moscow Air Defense District as the main target, and it raised seven fighter regiments to reflect it.
              The command and the General Staff of the Air Defense Forces of the country not only did not correct this major mistake of the Moscow Region, but also exacerbated it, because by the order of the head of the BNOC Air Defense Forces of the country, all the radio stations of the western direction of the Moscow Region of the Air Defense were turned off, as a result of which why these main forces penetrated with impunity through the Moscow Air Defense Region to a target located in the interior of the country, having fulfilled their mission.

A total war, yes, you can win, but the Americans have to decide, but they have not figured out who the enemy is now. In order to set such tasks — to return the USSR to the borders of the 39th year — it was necessary to somehow live differently the previous years of those 10.

      By the way, the problem is not how WE will fight with the AUG (this is solved), but the main one is that with the advent of hypersonic anti-ship missiles and their availability for a wide variety of carriers there is a good chance for all the dwarf countries there against those very AUGs ... If forgotten by God a hole will be drowned by a dozen rockets by an aircraft carrier, such as the desire to carry democracy will immediately disappear .. how to ensure the presence of missile defense in this hole? This is a purely technical task, for example, a PMC will conclude a contract to protect the coast of this state, of course it will have all kinds of licenses and permits for this type of activity ..

        First you need to develop and make a hypersonic Zircon rocket, and only then think about PMCs.

        And if I remember correctly, this rocket to replace Granite and it is simply huge.

                      Why unbreakable? I did not say such nonsense. Moreover, unlike most of my compatriots who sincerely believe that aviation is our everything and that air defense is not particularly needed, I believe that both are necessary.
                      But for the current air defense of Syria, even taking into account the latest supplies, yes, they are virtually unbreakable, as, indeed, Israeli ones. For anti-aircraft defense in Khmeimim and Tartus - it can be shot down, I hope it won’t reach the check. But speak in style Yes we have them! or, conversely, yes they are us! I do not want .
                      In Georgia, the situation was different in general, almost half of the losses were friendly fire. And by the way, when they started to fight seriously, that is. with the use of electronic warfare and the removal of air defense, the losses immediately stopped. Syria is the result of a mistake (who would have thought that they would attack). Another thing is that it is supposed to pay epaulets for such mistakes.

        If this happened in 1941, then I would agree with you. I read such information, but I don’t know how historical this is, but there are indirect confirmations. When the USSR was attacked, Stalin did not lead the country in the first days, but sat in the country. I sincerely expected that they would come to arrest him now. Therefore, it was not Stalin who first delivered the speech on the defense of the country. Maybe the truth. Logically, it seems, because Stalin could not help but understand that it was precisely his miscalculation as leader that led to such an initial disaster in the war and that this could now be used to displace him.

    Alas, ignorant analysis. There are no alternatives to aircraft carriers in the open ocean. Add to the AUG "Kraukha", "Lever" and so on. electronic warfare systems, including space-borne EWs, covering the colossal hemisphere with an EW cap, add directional broadband EMR generators, microwave guns, burning off RCC warhead electronics and ... you will see that the aircraft carrier is not at all helpless AS a PLATFORM for aviation in the ocean. Here, usually in a dispute, they begin to peel at ICG ICBMs in a square-nested manner. But this is an argument for stupid people. Because it is applicable in both directions (the AUG can also include a submarine carrier of SLBMs and other "cleaners" of TVD spaces).

    In general, leave the template of the times of the USSR that an aircraft carrier an instrument of imperialism to the past. If you have a goal of operating tactical aircraft away from the coast or against the coast, when you have no ground bases near the theater of operations, there are no alternatives to aircraft carriers. Until star cruisers appear. Other - from ignorance.

Again, some hatred - we have no AUG, and we do not need them for nafig, because shit.

          I would rather say that the AUG has few chances against an equal opponent in the presence of closed "reservoirs" (Baltic, Mediterranean, Black Sea, in general, the western part of the Russian Federation), but where the open space has great advantages! Our anti-ship missiles from the coast need to fly 600-800 km to the AUG, than the means of destruction of the AUG! And if we take into account that NATO has enough bases on the western borders (although on the eastern borders, taking into account the South Caucasus and Japan), I wouldn’t bury Aviki ..

              Exactly. In a major war, it was aircraft carriers who should protect communications on transoceanic and transatlantic routes - sea and air. Therefore, if Russia wants to interfere with such communications, cut them, you cannot do without aircraft carriers. From the word "completely."

              Another example of the lack of alternative aircraft carriers - the coast of Norway (that "around the corner"). Basic fighter aviation of the Russian Federation gets there with great difficulty, therefore, aircraft carriers have no alternative there, that is, to prevent the Trident from launching from there, Russia has no forces without creating an AUG.

          And 12 "Granites" with a range of defeat of 700 km on Kuz is not an argument for AUG? Personally, I would not risk sending the AUG to a closer distance.

    The task of such ships is to ensure supremacy in the sky over coastal territories. Dangling away from the coast and being a target for submarines? In fact, the ACG should be 400-600 km to the coast

    Let's try to consider the likely areas and goals of the ACG in the event of US aggression against Russia.
    The areas are the Far East and North. Goals, destruction of enemy infrastructure and support of ground forces during the seizure of territory, that is, landing.
    The Far East, primarily Vladivostok and Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. I think the goals are quite serious for the AUG, with a developed system of airfields, coastal missile systems, the possibility of replenishing ammunition and equipment, and personnel. Now the rest of the coastal territory. Let’s say the states will land troops somewhere between Vladivostok and Magadan, or Cape Dezhnev. What's next? The same goes for the North. Murmansk I hope in the sense of defense "tough nut". Arkhangelsk is already the inland of the country. Landing on the Yamal under the cover of AUG-from the realm of fantasy. In any case, carrier-based aviation will not be able to operate at a distance of more than 500 km from the coastline. Therefore, even with the complete achievement of her superiority in the air, this is very unpleasant but not fatal. All the same, "our sizes protect us."
    much more dangerous is NATO strategic aviation, acting under the cover of ground aviation from the European theater of operations and from the south. And medium-range missiles, including destroyers and cruisers

    the author, in my opinion, makes one mistake, the AUG is generally not a means of a “first strike” - they don’t even say that it would be such a serious strike weapon in a global war (I hope everyone understands that when attacking the Russian Federation the war will immediately become global) - it is an excellent means of "projection of force" in peacetime. And most importantly, it is a means of controlling water transportation. The “Battle for the Atlantic” with the absolute dominance of aircraft carrier aircraft ... To counter precisely this hypostasis, the MRA was created in the USSR, which, combined with attack submarines armed with heavy KR, gave the Soviet Navy a chance to really compete for control over transportation. Today (in spite of all the achievements in the Kyrgyz Republic), we are practically devoid of strike components and the maximum we can rely on is control of our coastal zone, which is of course enough to counteract landing operations but absolutely does not constrain the transfer of enemy forces and resources.

AUG can support airborne operations, but only if coastal infrastructure has already been destroyed and there is no opposition in the air.

All cruisers of the Ticonderoga type are equipped with the Aegis marine control complex (AEGIS) and Standart air defense systems (SM-2, SM-3), very modern weapons. Some cruisers may be equipped with installations for launching the Tomahawks.

All remaining in service Tiki and all Burki are equipped with universal UVP, in the cells of which are loaded SAM, PLUR or KR. And after fine-tuning the ship LRASM, the RCC will also be stationed at the UVP.
    Here, rather, it should be said that the CD of some ships from the AUG escort may include the Kyrgyz Republic.
    AUG can also include in its composition and submarines of the type "Los Angeles" with torpedo armament and "Tomahawk" (with the launch through torpedo tubes).

All cruisers of the Ticonderoga type are equipped with the Aegis marine control complex (AEGIS) and Standart air defense systems (SM-2, SM-3), very modern weapons. Some cruisers may be equipped with installations for launching the Tomahawks.

      Ummm ... what year is the article? What means some cruisers may be equipped with Tomahawks launchers? All remaining in service Tiki and all Burki are equipped with universal UVP, in the cells of which are loaded SAM, PLUR or KR. And after fine-tuning the ship LRASM, the RCC will also be stationed at the UVP.
      Here, rather, it should be said that the CD of some ships from the AUG escort may include the Kyrgyz Republic.
      AUG can also include in its composition and submarines of the type "Los Angeles" with torpedo armament and "Tomahawk" (with the launch through torpedo tubes).

    I read in the comments that, allegedly, the AUG, when conducting active combat operations, will experience supply problems (probably with aviation fuel and ammunition). Rather, it refers to the experience of the Persian Gulf war (1990-91), where AVMs were used for the sole purpose of maximizing the attraction of ACGs to databases of a similar scale and intensity (for the first time after the Vietnam War), mining or ext. the development of the concept of their combat use, the acquisition of experience by the crews of the AVM and the flight crew of air wings. Although in D.S. there was enough air force grouping (the same, as it turned out, in the case of the land grouping, the experience of the 2003 war confirmed this). Those. there was no operational need for so many ACGs, given Iraq’s “fleet” and its lack of allies.

    AVMs even in a global conflict will be used precisely to maintain dominance in the oceans, i.e. the struggle against enemy naval formations, here it also implies the promotion of fleets on islands and archipelagoes adjacent to the theater of war, usually with underdeveloped infrastructure. And for these tasks, the supply of Amer. the fleet is debugged, including the ship's composition of the ILC (command of maritime transport)

The more I study it, the more I become convinced that there was never any real goal to destroy the USSR. There were plans for a war, but no one wanted to start it first in the West and the goal of destroying the USSR was never set. Rather, they always looked for an opportunity to somehow get along on the planet with a country that wanted a world revolution.

    Somehow you study one-sided history. If we had not detonated our bomb in 1949, we would have been gouged. By the way, even the presence of atomic weapons in our country did not prevent the mattresses from bombing our Far East after the war, not to mention reconnaissance aircraft.

America is in danger, it would be necessary to urgently resolve the issue while the Bolsheviks do not have delivery vehicles (medium-range R-12, which could threaten European allies - the 61st year, the first normal Soviet ICBM - R-16 - the 63rd year).
      But no. They did not finally decide the issue, even when the fate of America was at stake, and there was almost no risk.

      December 18th. After lunch, the Superstrongs returned again and attacked Nagoya a second time. They hit the Mitsubishi aircraft factory where I worked. As soon as the sirens howled, warning of an air raid, we ran away from the factory buildings and jumped into the “trenches” and “shelters” prepared in the dispersal area. Sheltered from the shock wave and splinters, we looked at the sky, looking for bombers. We noticed several waves of "Super Fortresses" that seemed pure white. They flew at an altitude of, as I determined, about 30000 feet. Huge planes went in a clear formation, dropping bombs in one gulp, as if they had laid a path across the factory from west to east. This was the first time that I was under a strong air attack, and I well remembered the whistle of falling bombs and the incredible sound of explosions. My ears rang and I went deaf for several hours.
      December 19th. The head of the Mitsubishi plant ordered the start of an urgent dispersal program. We feared that the bombers would return in even greater numbers. If the machines are subjected to new blows of “Super Fortresses”, then production will stop altogether. People began to transport machine tools to school buildings and small factories in and around the city.

      But if you need to arrange a fire storm in a city of a solid area - then yes, you have to work with CF.

    Even in the USSR, at its peak, the defeat of the AUG was planned to be achieved exclusively by a combined strike of long-range aviation and nuclear submarines. At the same time, the NK were to conduct an active battle, clearing positions for boats. It was supposed to simultaneously hold dozens (!!!) of bombers in the air. Now there are fewer planes, and the cat has cried, but I’ll keep silent about the NK (I think that the entire Northern Fleet will be able to carry out only one full-fledged operation against the AUG in the North Atlantic.

    Do you know why? Just counted

    That the possible gain — the liberation of Poland, possibly Czechoslovakia — is not worth the possible loss — the loss of at least the right, and very possibly the left bank of the Rhine. Plus, the British planned, and the Americans continued to blunt. Without the Americans, such a combination was clearly non-violent.

    Another milestone was the "Dropshot", which appeared at the end of 1949. It was already loaded with 300 atomic bombs and 250 tons of conventional bombs. At the same time, it was planned to drop 25 atomic bombs on Moscow, 22 on Leningrad. After that, the defeated territory was divided into 4 large zones (the Western part of the USSR, the Urals with Central Asia, Siberia and the Far East), which would be occupied by several American infantry divisions. The repressions against partisans and other resistance forces were supposed to be carried out by the hands of collaborators in order not to make foreign aggressors out of martyrs.

    It should be noted that by that time the USSR already had its own atomic bomb and this did not add enthusiasm to the developers of the invasion operation. According to their calculations, it turned out that in the event of an attack, the probability of combat losses in bombers would be more than 55%. They did not exclude a retaliatory strike on their own territory. Nevertheless, according to preliminary estimates, the total number of dead Soviet citizens as a result of nuclear attacks would be about 100 million people.

    Zircon is not in nature and the whole article revolves around non-existent weapons.

    And there’s no spoon either, right Neo? Why is she bending? ... laughing They write to you: they passed successful tests of the Zircon rocket! Otherwise, the arrogant Saxons would not yell about their ban ... wassat

    America needs a fleet to control trade routes and protect its coast.

    For the land war against us, they will use Ukraine, Poland, and for the supply and replenishment bases of the material part Germany and France.

    Actually now they are strengthening these countries by transferring equipment and reserves, building missile bases with medium-range missiles, which fly from Poland 15 minutes to Moscow.

    It flies once, then an otvetka and there is neither Poland, nor Germany, nor France with England. And there won’t be any mattresses either ... Any AUG is destroyed by a missile with a nuclear warhead. At the current level of technology, this is not difficult. You just need to revive the topic on the R-27K to a new level ..

    An aircraft carrier is a tool ... An aircraft carrier is a fat target ... An aircraft carrier is a stick and a scarecrow for the weak and defenseless ... The main task of the AOG is to ensure the launch of ICBMs from submarines. And here AUG is almost perfect. And as a cover for the nuclear submarines, and as a false target.

    Back in 2008-2011, the US Navy conducted extensive research on the combat stability of the fleet with the involvement of the then-newest aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan and the special ship SDTS. According to their results, a major scandal came out in 2012.
    Even from the unclassified part of the report, it is obvious that ALL the fleet’s air defense systems — and radars were noted — were completely unsuitable for intercepting anti-ship missiles. Note that there have not been any Zircons yet.
    For the same reasons, Coyote missiles are purchased at 5-6 pieces per year. The huge fleet does not conduct any training firing.

    AUGs have been a purely anti-Papuan weapon since the time of the Basalts.
