For reference: "Iwo Jima" - the flagship of the shock group. Its length is 257 m, width - 34 m. Range - 9,5 thousand nautical miles. On board are 30 helicopters and up to 8 attack aircraft vertical takeoff and landing.

Go to Syria. Otvetka to the appearance in Syria Su57! Here's how not to regret the absence of aircraft carriers in our fleet — now they would be very useful for us there!

What would be useful? Would you drown a couple more MiGs? Funny

you don’t understand how the RF, a complete aircraft carrier, can come in handy!

[kit88]

Imagine that we have Ulyanovsk. And what would he do? Stood off the coast of Syria? What for? There is a ground airbase. Would you take a parallel course with this CG? What for? The Mediterranean puddle, and so on, is patrolled up and down by our submarines and shot by Caliber.
There is nothing the aircraft carrier to do there, not his job. Now, if I were to go to the Caribbean ...

[Dreamboat]

That's right, these goals are not for aircraft carriers, but for cruisers, but better not with Caliber, but with Volcanoes. ...

Yes, where can I, the land sailor and the near, understand ... the state of the fleet and the need for an entire aircraft carrier ... without an air wing and an escort group. We would immediately have 6 fleets in the Mediterranean. They drowned the whole .. and everything else that floats and walks there.

all that walks on the seas will not participate in future wars !!! , well, or on the strength of half an hour - the fleet - including the aircraft carrier - designing strength and intentions! and nuclear cataclysms of nature will stoke the post

[mvg]

designing strength and intentions!

what to design and where we are going? for intentions also desires are needed, and then opportunities ...
in none of the directions, there is neither the first, nor the second, nor the third.
ps: so calm down, great designer of cataclysm, these aircraft carriers still need to be maintained, and they can only Papuans quote.

Well, yes, yes, yes ... Yugoslavia, the papus are still those ..... Libya, Iraq ...... then the conclusion? - all Papuans on earth except the states and the Russian Federation

[mvg]

everyone in the soul is a doctor and psychologist.
statistics on yugas, Libya, Iraq, etc. look ... less than 10% of departures, and every departure is several times more expensive for money.
yugas surrounded by a network of NATO airfields with infrastructure, normal runways and ammunition. BV, with a dozen bases in Turkey, KSA, Kuwait, etc.
useless floating suitcases ..

No one is mistaken who doesn’t do shit, you know how to do it better, and anyone can get sick.

[Spartanez300]

For them, the “Bastions” with the “Caliber” will be enough. Dermocrats are going to breed crap.

[Lynx33]

This cannot be an answer when they were loaded at the port, our planes have not yet arrived in Syria, rather, on the contrary, the strengthening of the Syrian air group was the answer of sending a US assault group.

[Thunderbolt]

The answer to our Su-57 has been flying over Syria for a long time, and this is an ordinary rotation or strengthening of their MP in the Persian Gulf, because they will not take Khmeimim from the sea. They will pass by at a respectful distance to their destination. It’s just so customary for them --- each fleet sets up a battalion for emergency response to threats.

[Baloo]

Preparing for a land operation. We are ready?

[penal battalion]

According to recent reports, the ultimate goal of this ship group is the Persian Gulf area - the zone of responsibility of the American 5th fleet.

Bluff!!! The goal is one - Syria! The situation in Eastern Ghout, an occasion for the striped (with the tacit consent of the Security Council) to conduct a ground operation. Yes! March will be "hot" ....

The Persian Gulf and Syria are not quite near. And the US fleet, like other maritime powers, has a habit of sailing around the seas.

[ul_vitalii]

A good boat, I took everything I needed with me and went where I needed to.

[Pingo]

To the big ship - a big torpedo

[Geksagena]

What nonsense? Why do we need an aircraft carrier if there is a full-fledged air base? And this mass grave with helicopters on board is already American stupidity. God grant the political will to the leadership, and to sink their fleet to the damn grandmother along with the landing!

[Zubr]

We have something to answer there without aircraft carriers. At least a couple of multipurpose nuclear submarines, it’s present there for sure, and your Vasyavians registered there.

[igorka357]

Well, actually rocket ships with anti-ship missiles on board would be useful, rather than aircraft carriers! Or do you know the doctrine of the use of AUGs against AUGs, even the amers do not have one, never existed in the USSR, and Russia doesn’t! against the AUG there was a Legend, there were missile-bearing regiments and nuclear submarines, Russia, in addition to the Legend, had the same thing!

[chvg]

"...to this ship group is the Persian Gulf ... ", - Iran.

[yehat]

what nafig answer?
can you even imagine what it means to prepare the landing fleet?
I think they began to prepare at least 3 months before the appearance of the su-57

[Uralean]

And why do we need an aircraft carrier off the coast of Syria, in response to the American. ASU? To combat the American Air Force, there is absolutely no need for aircraft carriers, just basic missile launchers on the ground, with a range of up to 2000 km. Or cruisers, corvettes, frigates, submarines in the Mediterranean, in particular off the coast of Syria. Russia already has all this .. And the Naval Base, and the air base, and the Mediterranean naval naval group of the Russian Navy. And aircraft carriers are needed to strike in the absence of military bases, or to intimidate the enemy, and to block the enemy’s waterways ..))

Herkulesich, what are you, eh? The Mediterranean is already located US Navy Sixth Fleet. He is in full set. If they need something, they will bring it from Italy. The ships mentioned in the article go in the direction of the Persian Gulf, to the area of ​​responsibility Fifth US Navy fleet - fleet basing station - Manama (Bahrain).

There we have half a year and the warrior in 3 hours will be 15000 and the Bastion on the coast of a lot, and winged can be used as needed.

[Angel_and_Demon]

In total, over the 3 of thousands of marines are on board the US Navy ship group. According to the latest data, the ultimate goal of this ship group is the Persian Gulf area - the area of ​​responsibility of the American 5 fleet.

A classic example of an American Wishlist for managing the world. Papuans are in awe. Our thrills would be of course. If the army had not been restored. And so, for Russia, what a cool goal. And for the Persian region, shock and awe.

[Graz]

Well, our span must be made on that 22 or that 160, so as moral support to the Yankees

[askme]

This is pure show off. In such an amount, this landing is powerless without much more powerful support. Three thousand not a single serious problem can be solved. Nowhere there. Too serious porridge there. And provocations - yes. No more.

[rocket757]

Why worry. Just a democratic landing ... just in case!
These certainly are not doves of the world, frogs, like frogs like ???

[rotmistr60]

there are more than 3 thousand marines

For the first time, are Americans demonstrating their “power"? The region is hot, therefore, they want to show that they have everything under control. Along the way, perhaps they are preparing another dirty trick to restore "democracy."

[Amur_tiger]

And what is the "Range - 9,5 nautical miles"? Overview from the bridge, or the range of the captain's jet?

[k_ply]

For reference: Iwo Jima is the flagship shock groups.

No such certificates are needed, the amphibious assault group (ADG), except for naval AUG and KUG.
The expeditionary battalion is only on board.

[k_ply]

If without fantasies, then such ADGs with EBMs on board with a six-month rotation are on their combat duty as part of the 5th, 6th and 7th fleets.

[san4es]

The strike group also includes the New York landing and helicopter docking ship and the Oak Hill landing ship. In total, the number of sailors and marines in this group exceeds 4500 people.
"Iwo Jima" - the seventh in a series of eight universal landing ships of the "Wosp" class, entered the fleet in the summer of 2001.
Ships of this type have a displacement of 40530 tons. Length - 257 meters, width - 34 meters. Develop a cruising speed of 22 knots. Cruising range - 9500 miles. On board is based an air group of 30 helicopters and 6-8 attack aircraft vertical take-off and landing AV / 8B Harrier II.
