"To track the activity of Russian submarines in the Atlantic": the destroyer "Donald Cook" was added to the new anti-submarine group of the US Navy

The American naval command announced work to improve the capabilities of "confronting Russian submarines." The Pentagon points out that Russian submarines "are an existential threat to the United States." The American media add to this that Russian submarines “are increasingly approaching short distances to American shores, while carrying nuclear weapon».

In order to "contain" Russian submarines in the US Navy, another task force of destroyers is being formed. The main area of ​​combat deployment is the Atlantic Ocean. It is in this direction in the United States that the confrontation between a group of destroyers and submarines of the Russian Navy is "expected".

Rear Admiral Brendan MacLaine, Commander of the U.S. Navy Submarine Force:

Our ships will be ready to track the activity of Russian submarines in the Atlantic, defend the territory of the United States and ensure the safety of the water area in our interests.

For the ships of the new anti-submarine group, the bases of Norfolk (Virginia) and Mayport (Florida) will be involved.

Rear Admiral McLain:

The new US Navy destroyer group will go to full combat deployment by June 2022.

At the moment, the group includes the well-known destroyer "Donald Cook" (a frequent guest of the Black Sea water area). Now they decided to operate it in the North Atlantic to "detect the activity of Russian submarines." At the same time, it is known that by the summer of 2022, the command will send Donald Cook for maintenance and modernization.

Also in her (group) composition is the destroyer Thomas Hudner. And in about 2 years, the destroyers Cole and Gravely will join the fleet.

Recall that earlier the command staff of the destroyer Donald Cook expressed claims to the Russian military pilots for allegedly "unprofessional and dangerous maneuvers" over the waters of the Black Sea at the time of the presence of an American warship there.

So often you hear "Donald Cook", "Donald Cook" that one gets the impression that this is the only tub with a more or less combat-ready crew in the American Navy that dares to contact the Russians!

Well, they are already "familiar" with the Russian aircraft, the reaction to them has already been worked out, now it remains to introduce the crew to the Russian submarines. What will be the reaction ...?

The group was named Greyhound. Its FULL composition includes five destroyers
The United States will return to the United States Fleet Command its former name, the Atlantic Fleet.

In fact, this is more inflated by the domestic urrya propaganda I do not think that, for example, Western media are inserting in the news everywhere Cruiser Moscow

so after all there the "half-crew" was written off, as it were? (so they yelled in our publics)

[military_cat]

Well, yes, there is a bit of a feeling that of all the Arlie Burks, "Donald Cook" fell in love with the domestic media, when they wrote off his crew on land, and he continued to serve as if nothing had happened. And now they need to illuminate his every movement, because there is an unclosed gestalt.

I don’t get it, we don’t like our provision of freedom of navigation in the Atlantic? And why? Like, huh?

Exactly "bye"! According to their language, the Atlantic ALL is also the territory of the United States!

Do not pay attention to the poor, there are so many Napoleons and other geniuses in the fool. Imagine that the states are a very big fool.

No, the USA is not at all a fool, but the richest highly developed country,
owning technologies inaccessible to us, capable of very quickly
overcome the lag behind us in some types of weapons.

[Ros 56]

You will tell this in the program: Obvious-incredible. The striped ones are incapable of anything, only if someone is caught on the green bucks hook, this is confirmed by their whole history.

They fired a truncheon from bombsuk:
Bale! Right in the crown - and there is no "Cook"! ...

[novel66]

And we must not forget to report about the defender's life.

Her Majesty is still asleep. Wake up - report

[Ros 56]

The striped ones were introduced, and we will deduce on occasion and there is no Cook.
Good morning everyone. In the morning he joked and life is easier.

Something I did not understand ... The destroyer, which has an almost permanent residence permit in the Black Sea, goes to the Atlantic to look for Russian submarines. And who will stay in the Eastern Mediterranean? Will they send a new one? Or do the Yankees lack destroyers? Why tear off a warship from a "prayed" place, where it is actually the basis of the NATO CMG (you can quickly assemble this CMG) and has mainly air defense missions and work along the coast to solve anti-submarine missions? Well, send another ship to the KPUG, and leave this one as the basis for a possible Black Sea connection. Or there are no other ships, as it were? ... Or a possible Black Sea connection is not relevant? ...

You just need to urgently finish off the resource before "At the same time, it is known that by the summer of 2022, the command will send Donald Cook for maintenance and modernization."

[vch62388]

Maybe I do not shine with abilities and I may not understand something, but for me it is not necessary to spend a resource "to a piece of iron". On a private car, you do not wait until the resource of the units is completely exhausted, but seasonally carry out the PPR (probably).

[Grits]

Apparently, this is the coolest destroyer in the American fleet. Ubiquitous. Already the entire world okiyan furrowed, judging by the publications And most importantly, it does not break, never, bastard ...
