The sixth US fleet could not break through to the coast of Syria


The invincible and legendary Sixth Fleet of the U.S. Navy hastily left the Mediterranean when approaching the Syrian coast of the Russian naval group. Actually, the Sixth Fleet itself and its commander, Vice Admiral Craig Pandolf, have not gone away - they are still in the zone of responsibility entrusted to them, listed in all operational reports and financial reports. At the numerous Mediterranean bases of the Sixth fleet life also flows in the usual mode - work orders, dismissal, perimeter security, painting fences, theft of property, unpaid bills for electricity, gas and fresh water.



Another thing is that the ships of the Sixth Fleet strangely disappeared from the Mediterranean Sea!
There is a fleet, but there are no ships, you will surely be surprised - Is this possible?

Yes, perhaps, if we are talking about the US Navy. Unlike the structure of the Russian Navy, where each fleet has an unchanged list of ships assigned to it, including its flagship (Northern Fleet - TARKR Peter the Great, Baltic Fleet — Destroyer destroyer, Black Sea Fleet — GRKR Moscow, Pacific - RKR "Varyag"), the concept of "fleet" for the US Navy - no more than a sphere of responsibility. It is impossible to give a specific answer to the request: “Show the ships of the Sixth Fleet” - the fleet composition changes almost daily. Here is a quantum mechanics!

For example, any carrier strike group that has passed the Strait of Gibraltar is automatically assigned the designation Task Force 60 (60 Operational Connection) and AUG is transformed into the main strike force of the Sixth Fleet. And the commander of the carrier group, respectively, receives the post of commander of the Operational Force 60, and is now directly responsible for the situation in the Mediterranean.

Following this logic, each assault helicopter carrier and its escort, which entered the Mediterranean waters, are designated Task Force 61. Now they are the main amphibious forces of the Sixth Fleet.
Any squadron of destroyers in the Mediterranean is transformed into DESRON SIX ZERO (or simply “the 60 squadron”), the destroyers are gone — the 60’s mines squadron is disbanded.

How do the Americans manage not to get entangled in this whirlpool and not accidentally lose their six dozen destroyers in the expanses of the World Ocean? Imagine such a conversation on the sidelines of the Pentagon:

- Where is the destroyer "John Paul Jones"?

“Last year he was seen off the coast of Jamaica ...”

- Damn, he was supposed to arrive in Norfolk in September. Where is he gone?

A "John Paul Jones" quietly rusting in the harbor of Pearl Harbor, in anticipation of a new order, which, perhaps, will send him to the coast of Greenland.

Three things help to avoid such a mess: a specific home port for each ship (standard and mandatory world practice), a rather fuzzy division into Atlantic and Pacific command, and, most importantly, regardless of the number of the fleet, American ships are kept in permanent divisions, combat groups and carrier strike groups.

Refueling at full speed

For many years, any aircraft carrier usually has an unchanged list of its escort ships and a clear composition of the wing with permanent squadrons, which are sometimes assigned to this aircraft carrier for decades. And nothing else.
For example, the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln, together with the Cape St. George missile cruiser, four Aegis destroyers (Sterret, Hesley, Momsen and Shoup), and a number of auxiliary ships and frigates form the “combat aircraft carrier group №9 ".

Based on this concept, each of the six American fleets constantly has in its composition (i.e., in its area of ​​responsibility) one or several carrier strike groups, amphibious groups or divisions of destroyers from which the fleet is formed. Ships come and go, but their number always remains the same.

And so — noticing the Russian squadron on the horizon, most of the American ships hurried to leave the zone of the Sixth Fleet, leaving the Mediterranean frontier of NATO, sorry, with a bare bottom. Speaking in Russian - the Sixth Fleet ceased to exist, remaining only in the form of paper instructions and empty berths of the Mediterranean bases.

History This is not new - according to a similar scenario, the brave British sailors acted, who, having barely received information about the German battleship Tirpitz entering the sea, threw the unarmed transports of the PQ-17 convoy to their fate and shamefully fled on a 30-junction passage. It is significant that the British squadron, at least, was not inferior to German ships and even had an advantage due to the presence of a deck aviation. The death of the PQ-17 convoy laid a shameful spot on the entire history of the British Navy.

So it happened this time: a middle-aged rocket cruiser, a pair of large anti-submarine ships, four amphibious ships with full holds of “black towers”, a small frigate and a patrol ship, laid back in the distant 1966 year, drove away from the coast of Syria all of the “probable enemy” ", Tearing down the already prepared plans for an armed invasion. American sailors are seriously afraid of the Russian Navy - they have long understood that when the shells run out, our ships will break through their side, as happened in the Black Sea.

On a long hike


Let's see for fun who confronted a small Russian squadron:

Nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "Dwight Eisenhower" - a clot of combat matter weighing 100 thousand tons; invincible monster capable of striking the enemy at a distance of a thousand kilometers and explore the entire surface of the Mediterranean Sea in a day. Two Westinghouse reactors, unlimited autonomy for fuel reserves. The displacement of a huge ship is twice the total displacement of all the ships of the Russian group.

The main argument of the slaughter machine is 70 ... 80 aircraft of various purposes, capable of dumping tons of ammunition from the vast cellars of a super-aircraft carrier on the heads of 1900 enemies. State-of-the-art equipment, radar and supercomputers, a plant for seawater desalination, catapults, ammunition elevators, aerofinishers and aircraft lifters, heavy booking, unique fire extinguishing systems, giant storages and cold stores, nearly six thousand crew members.

1 December 2012 of the Year “Dwight Eisenhower” arrived in the eastern part of the Mediterranean. 13 December 2012, the invincible aircraft carrier Dwight Eisenhower, unexpectedly said goodbye to everyone, and a bullet flew out of the Mediterranean, heading for Norfolk's home base.
According to the official version, the ship was taken away to defuse the tense situation in this region. Hmm ... why are the Americans afraid of the "tense situation" ?! In my opinion, their entire policy is aimed at creating tensions around the world.

After the escaped “Eisenhower”, Turkish politicians looked sadly at themselves, and now they will have to resolve the situation on the border with Syria on their own.

Universal amphibious assault ship docking "Iwo Jima". A huge barge, comparable in displacement and capabilities with the aircraft carrier "Admiral Kuznetsov." Onboard the Iwo Jima are thirty aircraft: vertical take-off attack aircraft, heavy transport helicopters and convertible planes, and a squadron of attack helicopters. Down below the flight deck are hidden accommodations designed to accommodate 2000 marines. Even lower - decks for the transport of armored vehicles. And at the waterline level there is a dock filled with water, in which there are three ready-made amphibious assault ships.

Two weeks of "Iwo Jima", overloaded with military equipment, it is important to spur Syrian waters, but barely seeing small Russian BDK, rushed to the West, rolling over and puffing on the 23-node course.

Together with the Eisenhower aircraft carrier, his personal guardian left the Syrian waters - the Hue City missile cruiser with full Tomahawk cellars prepared for the shelling of Syrian cities. The most modern ship, equipped with the all-seeing Aegis system and 122 launchers for launching any type of missile in service with the US Navy. But no modern technology has saved the Americans from the fierce fear of the Russian squadron. And a quarter of a century ago, the Yorktown rocket cruiser, similar in design to Hue City, returned from a Black Sea cruise with destroyed deck flooring and broken sides. Although it would seem - just tried to get closer to Sevastopol ... And then - the whole Syria, the Russian sailors of what good will be cut in half with an impact ram.

In addition to the missile cruiser, in the retinue of the American super-aircraft carrier there were three destroyers of URO of the Orly Burke type — McFaul, Kerney, and Farragut. All of them, of course, escaped with their flagship. Stunning ships, masterpieces of world shipbuilding, ready to shoot the enemy with five dozen winged “Tomahawks” or strike a target in low near-earth orbit. Lastly, Burgh's gunship destroyers are a key element of the US missile defense system. Strong, strong and modern destroyers. So what? Did it help much?

All in all, the Americans concentrated on the sea approaches to Syria from 17 the most powerful and modern ships: aircraft carrier and UDC, Ajis cruisers, destroyers, frigates, integrated supply ships and ships of the Shipping Command. And the total number of ships of the Sixth Fleet reached 40 units! To date, most of them have left the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, while the rest of the ships hid in bases.

One of the military transports of the Maritime Sealift Command. Used for fast worldwide delivery of equipment, equipment and personnel of the Army and Marines

Americans are the most modest and ascetic people. In the composition of the Sixth Fleet is constantly only ... one ship. The special command ship "Mount Whitney" is the very exception that confirms the general rule. Unlike all other ships, the Mount Whitney rarely leaves the Mediterranean basin and, in fact, is the eternal flagship of the American maritime group in this region.

The idea is not bad - to ensure effective management and coordination of the forces of the Navy and the Marine Corps, it was proposed to build a specialized staff ship, extremely saturated with receiving and transmitting equipment, with equipped briefing and conference rooms, comfortable admiral cabins and military control posts. On board there is equipment for receiving a helicopter. Externally, the “Mount Whitney” is distinguished by a flat spacious deck, which is literally littered with covers of antenna devices. In principle, Mount Whitney is difficult to distinguish from civilian research vessels or ships to communicate with spacecraft. The only thing that gives him a warship, - mounted on the bow and in the stern six-column automatic anti-aircraft gun "Phalanx".

Sixth Fleet Command Ship

In 2008, Mount Whitney, having forgotten about its flagship functions, was the first to deliver humanitarian aid to Georgia. Along the way, he tried to make his way with a “friendly visit” to Sevastopol, but was booed and exhibited from the Black Sea in disgrace. This time, sensing that the Russians are determined to defend Syria, the flagship of the Sixth Fleet locked itself at its base in Gaeta (Italy) and does not appear to our sailors.

By the way, about the bases - the Sixth Fleet has in the Mediterranean Sea a significant number of points of material and technical service. Among them are facilities in Italy: in addition to the already mentioned naval base Gaeta, on the coast of this country there is a large naval base Naples with a coastal high-security command post and a forward point of stationing La Maddalena (a base of nuclear submarines on Sardinia). In addition, the Sixth Fleet may use the Italian naval forces Spezia, Taranto, Brindisi, Augusta (a major fuel supply point for fuel and lubricants). On the coast of Spain is another large object - the naval base Rota, used in conjunction with the Spanish Navy. Also, to deploy the base patrol and anti-submarine aircraft, the US fleet can use numerous air bases in European countries (for example, Sigonella AB on Sicily).

Entry into the territory of the Navy, Spain

The maintenance of all these military facilities falls heavily on the shoulders of American taxpayers. The Sixth Fleet commanders are trying to cut costs, and sometimes this leads to hilarious results - in September 2009, the Gaeta naval base remained for several days without fresh water: a private Italian water supply company simply turned off the water for non-payment.

Finale

Whatever events take place in the Middle East - the coast of Syria is under the constant control of the Russian Navy. We won this round - American ships left the Mediterranean Sea, and without the help of American aircraft carriers, UDC and Ajis destroyers, NATO has no clear advantage at sea - European non-aircraft carriers and frigates devoid of any serious strike weapons do not pose a threat to Russian group of ships of the Black Sea, Baltic and Pacific Fleets. Hopefully, the North Sea mariners will soon come to the area and our Navy will be able to conduct truly ambitious exercises in the Mediterranean.

Yes, the Sixth Fleet is cool and strong, but the era of atomic weapons guaranteed to "multiply by zero" all non-nuclear means in global war. And in local conflicts, the one who is more impudent and decisive has an advantage. The US Navy has extensive experience in fighting at sea, but the Americans do not like to fight unprepared, they need time to deploy and thorough preparation. Our sailors, on the contrary, are ready to fight in any conditions - this is our main and only trump card; unexpected tricks and desperate courage devalue any Aegis and Tomahawks.

          Yes it is, BUT !!!!!

          I am sure that the United States did not withdraw its ships because it was scared ... such maneuvers without a "high-level conversation" are not carried out at all.

          At most, if they were taken away so as not to provoke a conflict.

          VERY complex processes are going on in the USA, many people don’t understand why their country (USA) is climbing into Syria ... at that moment, starting a war there in the face of active opposition from Russia and China’s strong disagreement is risky ... This is where the current indecision.

            For example, the US emerges from the Syrian conflict in return for our non-interference in a possible Sino-Japanese conflict over the oil islands in the South China Sea.

              The direction of thought is correct, but one can argue about the subject of exchange. Maybe Russia decided to look blindly at the events in Mali. In any case, the Americans did not run in such cases from the Soviet Navy. So either it’s pure duck or a political agreement. Well, there is still the option that this is the pressure of the army lobby on the US Senate. And then there is a question about the sequestration of the military budget on the horizon. Here are the military and demonstrate the impossibility of their military presence while reducing funding. After all, the American voter will not forgive flight from Russians. Who's guilty? So those who want to sequester the military budget! :)

                From the Soviet Navy, the Yusovtsy always kept to the utmost distance and the Soviet sailors were always afraid, the Yusovtsy did not like clashes with a worthy enemy. As Yusovsky writer R. Heinlein wrote (The Road of Valor):
                “The American Eagle feeds on carrion, does not attack anyone, even in its weight class, and is likely to die out altogether. It is for these Ideals that he stands uphill. A symbol is what we ourselves put into it "

                From warsonline article.

                Speaking about the tasks set by countries that somehow participate in all this, it must be said that France is trying to strengthen its position in this former French colony, Russia would also like to return to Mali. In Soviet times, the USSR exploited gold mines in Mali, today these mines are inactive. Supporting international efforts, Russia plays its game, its goals for the rest of the countries are not clear, which, in general, is nothing new under Putin. One thing is clear that Putin will support Hollande as much as it helps to drown him in the shaky sands of the Malian desert. Hollande makes the mistake of not designating the purpose of the operation. This means that, leaving Mali, France always runs the risk of facing accusations of desertion, saying that the task has not been solved. Putin will pull Hollande by the nose so that he is stuck as deep as possible.

                After all this, does anyone even remember about Syria? It looks like Syria is not on the map either. That’s what a competent, balanced, thought-out policy of real and profound politicians leads to. Putin simply beat the West once again. No one even cares a bit about why amphibious ships are going to the Mediterranean Sea, why would the forces of all fleets arrange maneuvers in the Mediterranean Sea? What more seas or not? I think Putin understands that Erdogan will be much less zealous when this armada appears at his side, which can deprive anyone of his appetite. Earlier, during his visit to Turkey, Putin showed Erdogan a gingerbread, but now the whip is arriving.

                In DAILYMEDIA an article was published What Putin’s anti-patriotic step will be, judge for yourself, quote: “However, knowing Putin it can be assumed that he will not“ butt ”with the Turks. It will probably not be possible to poison them with sanctions, although such a threat will probably be identified. Perhaps Russia will try to somehow increase its presence in Tartus or in the Black Sea. After all, this is the least costly response. According to the established tradition, the Black Sea Fleet’s maneuvers will be “in no way connected with the hostilities” between Turkey and Syria. But part of the armed formations Russian ships will undoubtedly be pulled over. Turkey undoubtedly has a genetic fear of Russia. It’s important how Russia will manage Turkish phobias. ”

                Now we see that Putin also used Turkish phobias correctly, as well as the French aspirations in Africa and even Godep’s stupidity. Now Putin has a special round - "his own game." Hollande, thinking that he is doing politics in Europe, seems to be just at Putin's opening act. One more point should be noted. Since there was information about the participation of Russian peacekeepers in Mali. The French-speaking Internet has perked up that it says that even inside France Putin deserves respect and trust more than his own president, this is a very serious and unpleasant indicator for Hollande.

              What agreement can there be if it is about the seizure of full control of the Middle East by YSA?

              National American Game - Poker. And Americans love to play with speckled cards. This whole hybrid war story is another hoax. Americans have come up with and apply these technologies for a long time. The information component is the main link in this war. And the fleet is a large advertising showcase of the capabilities of the US Navy. Perhaps (my assumption) their capabilities are slightly exaggerated, and in the prospect of confronting us, they do not want to lose their face. Well, there may be other reasons, for example: they want to hide some of their technological capabilities from our intelligence.

          And what are you going to provide target designation for Granite? Or we will herakat as from RBU, "where will it fly?"

            I may be wrong. But can not the helicopters in the combined fleet indicate the direction of launch of the missiles and the target itself? Indeed, when launching granites, one of the missiles along the flight path flies above its flock and, upon detection of targets, selects and captures them and broadcasts it to their girlfriends, who are in the zone of low radar visibility.

              Can you imagine the number of ships in the area? Granite, which knows how to select targets, will capture some target in the square, only 80% that it will be someone's tanker. In addition, he does not have very good protection against modern electronic warfare equipment (age, old man, age). So to naughty there with Granite is not a buzz.

                Statistics science can be accurate, but only if there is something to consider (I mean%). And I think that the mattresses have very few known to substitute in the formula and get the probability of hitting targets (because you can screw it up). And suddenly missiles were graded with the help of a new elemental base. After all, they have something to lose, they are positioned as the strongest power in the world, the guarantor of security for more than a hundred countries, the cement of the NATO bloc. But we have nothing to lose, if we miss, we conclude that without new weapons we can’t. Well, a tanker more than a tanker is less, it's okay, you can gladly compensate the owner of the cost of this vessel with our sincere apologies if the bonus is a sunken ship like Nimitz. So, for us, only ++ sy.

            Well, you, too, bent ... probably when they did the system (back then ....) you probably figured out how to target designation or do you think that they (granites) just shoot.
            that's what they write ..
            "When creating the complex, for the first time, an approach was used, the basis of which is the mutual coordination of 3 elements: target designation means (in the form of spacecraft), a carrier and anti-ship missiles. The created complex has acquired the ability to solve the most difficult tasks of sea combat with an outfit of fire weapons of one carrier."
            The on-board autonomous selective RCC control system is built on the basis of a three-processor on-board computer (BCM) using several information channels, which allows you to successfully understand a difficult jamming environment and highlight true targets against the background of interference.
            The digital computer contains electronic data on modern ship classes; tactical information, for example, on the type of ship warrants, which allows the missile to determine who is in front of it - an escort, aircraft carrier or landing group, and attack the main targets in its composition; data on counteracting enemy electronic warfare, capable of staging missiles to lead missiles away from targets; tactics of evading fire from air defense systems.
            The 3M-45 (P-700) missile has several flexible adaptive trajectories depending on the operational and tactical situation in the sea and airspace of the operation area. The rocket has a cruising turbojet engine KR-93 and an annular solid-fuel accelerator in the tail section, which starts operation under water (when launched from surface ships, the mines are filled with seawater). A variant of the rocket with an experienced 4D 04 supersonic ramjet engine allowed the rocket to reach speeds of up to 4M. "

            and the US fleet left only because our "reb" (and our reconnaissance ship is clearly there too) would not reveal their connection, codes, control system, etc.

                The world war to annihilate each other ended 67 years ago. And over the past time, weapons have become many times deadlier. Therefore, of course, no one wants to launch a world-wide slaughter until there is a compelling argument that whoever starts and wins. Unfortunately, the states use this because they have no conscience and morality. Their slogan is only business and nothing personal. People for them is a resource that you need to use with maximum efficiency. And because of this, a virtuoso game on public opinion. Here is their war, and so far unfortunately they are winning it.

              Vito plus. We cut with the author in the topic of armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles. He has a fasting and a mockery. but you will not refuse the ability to present and design.

              I sincerely thank you for this article, especially considering that there is a regrouping of forces and analysis.

              Recently, the news was here. Matt, where are you and I joking about bait?

                  and now this phrase from the article.

                  Yes, the Sixth Fleet is steep and strong, but the Age of Atomic Weapons is guaranteed to "multiply by zero" all non-nuclear weapons in a global war. And in local conflicts, the advantage is one who is more impudent and decisive. The U.S. Navy has extensive naval experience, but Americans don’t like fighting unprepared; they need time for deployment and thorough preparation. Our sailors, on the contrary, ready to fight in any conditions - this is our main and only trump card; unexpected tricks and desperate courage devalue any Aegis and Tomahawks.

                  I turn to Oleg about the unequipped coast. Although I do not exclude that the landing (if it comes to it) will again be on a daring port, as it was in Feodosia, Novoros, or upon the liberation of Bulgaria.

            Well, it’s necessary as a kid to choke on the fact that the 6th US fleet left the Mediterranean, and only because the Russian ships entered. Well, 6th left, there are so few reasons to leave, maybe the plans were spelled out five more years ago. And the author is already screeching.

            One must be objective. The US Navy is currently strong. And this recognition will mean more than a piggy squeal, as it mobilizes Russia to create its own, even more powerful fleet. And if we compare, not objectively, but objectively. The ships of the four fleets of Russia pulled together in the Mediterranean are inferior in power to only one 6 fleet. And the United States has five such fleets.

              ALL.

              EMERCOM of Russia sends two planes to Beirut to evacuate Russian citizens from Syria. Of which there are 40-60 thousand. Details below.

              I thought just throwing in unverified information. I looked in other news, too, this news in the front row. You can make preliminary assumptions.

              The Assad Dynasty ends. Indirect signs:

              1. If everything was normal, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs would not have developed an evacuation plan since December 12, 2012.
              2. The time is right, because for no reason, the Ministry of Emergencies would not have sent two planes right now.
              3. Damascus Airport means it is no longer functioning, or dangerous for operation. Therefore, the planes were sent to Beirut.
              4. A large evacuation is planned, since in addition to the aircraft of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, passenger aircraft Aeroflot, Transaero, Cyprus Airveiz are involved. And also the aircraft of the military transport aviation of the Ministry of Defense at the airfields of Pskov, Taganrog, Orenburg were put on a six-hour readiness.
              5. Most likely this is connected with the pulling of the Navy ships to the coast of Syria to evacuate and ensure safety.

              And by agreement, so as not to interfere, the ships of the 6 US fleet left the eastern Mediterranean.

              And here the Sykuns screamed, the Ameprians escaped.

                I think that tow trucks have a serious problem - from Damascus to Beirut the path is not close, and far from safe — the forces of the marines from the landing ships of the Russian Federation that arrived in Tartus are obviously not enough to ensure safety.

          Yes, this is partly an argument. However, one cannot consider amers to be fools and underestimate them as an adversary. The cap accentuation of the article is obvious and spoils the impression.

          And now objectively:
          1. Of course, any AUG is monitored by our submarines. However, as real long-term experience shows, in 80% of cases, tracking boats are detected by AUG anti-submarine weapons. There is a game of cat and mouse - they pretend that they do not notice the tracking, we pretend that they did not notice us. Who actually served as ship officers will understand me. In my practice, this situation has repeatedly happened - when passing the Faroe-Icelandic border, we find a "tail" behind us. We report to the base. We receive an order to continue the task. We continue according to the principle outlined above.
          So, colleagues, it is not yet known who in the event of a conflict will strike first and by whom. The first blow just can be inflicted on the tracking boat, and only then, without this threat, for other purposes.
          2. It is highly doubtful that the amers were afraid of our courageous but shabby squadron. Expanding the topic does not make sense, there is much to say about it. Most likely, these are some kind of political games ...

        I completely agree - there is an overabundance of jingoism.
        Our exercises are ahead, and NATO always observes them covertly or explicitly.
        So the area is full of their submarines, and by the time the exercises begin, they can pull something up.

        Exactly the war with Russia was AFRAID - is that not a fear of us? We have a reputation as an unpredictable country, besides with nuclear weapons, and the author correctly said that in this situation all their advantages are reduced to zero. And again, the author is right that they are afraid to get involved in such an adventure, not being sure of their impunity, and this is also a sign of cowardice. Of course, they will take tactical moves, as you say, these moves have long been known to everyone, they like to rake the heat with the wrong hands. Yes, whine about what kind of Russian animals and how alien to them the principles of democracy. To the author +. And even if, as they put it, cheers are patriotism, it is much better than sitting and whining how weak and deprived we are. We have something to be proud of, our fathers and grandfathers have proved this more than once. And the fact that we fought better in Agan is about this, the Avgans they say. A man is fighting, not a car.

        Hi Sash, of course the author embellished a little, but only a little, in fact, it’s worth sinking a couple of American ships as they will immediately put them in pants out of fear, although we are few, but for that we are in vests and Americans are well aware that this is before the Papuans it’s possible to work out, but it’s worth touching ours and in which case nothing will be left of them in the first place, but I don’t want to die, they sailed for money, and if they die, who will spend it? hi And in the end, you can embellish a little bit, otherwise we, as pessimists, relate to everything drinks

        Yes, come on. hi wink
        Starting with the title, the article is banter and hyperbolization.
        Such re-turbations of military force in space have long been a pure policy and work on the image on a global scale.
        Which is, in general, correct. Demonstrations are needed :))
        In this case, the military expediency of leaving the Amer group is not important.
        We live in a global media space. And the fact of their departure, which coincided with the fact of our arrival, works to lower the prestige of the United States.
        And this is not a little.
        From this, it obviously follows that the prestige so cherished by the amers, they began to slowly "score".

          Syria will fall then Iran and everything will move toward us in the Caucasus. The world has become smaller than it seems. They are spreading Dagestan, the Chechen Republic-again blood, hostility on our land. Why don’t anyone let people close, even to South America? Look at the list of corporations and their share in the markets of Latin and South America. The situation is the same as in Canada, from 40 to 70% of the population is tied to the Yusov economy. That is, strangers will not get through there. But what about the big Chinese wall for us to build? It’s easier to give a boor’s horns outside the walls of your house

        Rather, the war was not scared. On this theater, far from their native shores and supply bases, our ships will not last long in the war. I think that they agreed with us, exchanging plans to quickly press Syria into more serious ones to draw Europe into the African wars and prepare for Iran. So this region has been burning for a long time.

        completely agree! Having a colossal advantage in forces, means and supply bases is rather a poetic move. and the experience of combat use and naval training of amers should not be discounted. Our Navy, basically, in recent decades, defended and overgrown with algae in the bases. And there is nothing to say about the training of ordinary sailors !!!! It's a shame to realize this, but the fact is obvious! The Russian fleet has fucked up the homegrown dermoras! And guys, it's not worth throwing hats on the enemy, remember 1904-1905 and the "very successful actions" of our fleet in the Patriotic War. We urgently need to raise the oceanic component of Russia's nuclear triad, increase the number of campaigns with military-political goals, strengthen the system of autonomous control of the actions of our naval groupings, deploy by hook or by crook our permanent presence in the most "vital" areas for us !!!!

        Obama's recent candidacies for top government posts in the State Department, Defense Ministry, and the CIA indicate that a struggle is unfolding within the American political leadership between "globalists" on the one hand and "Obama's realists" on the other, intentional reduce American presence around the world in order to focus on real threats to America The fact that the realists are gaining the upper hand is evidenced by recent events, including the "sequestration" of the military budget and the fact that there is no AUG in the Mediterranean. Now they have no time for fat. One wrong move and the states themselves will turn into "Titanic" with chaos and panic on the ship.

        The Arab Spring has swept the dictatorial regimes of the Middle East loyal to Washington, and the resolution of the Syrian crisis will increase the general instability in the region even more. There is still no adequate answer to the Iranian nuclear threat; relations with Israel are seriously damaged. China, which for a long time bothered the United States only economically, has also turned into a powerful politico-military annoying factor - territorial disputes with another US ally Japan threaten to lead to war. Relations with Moscow, which have long left much to be desired, by the beginning of the year became frankly bad.

          And what kind of bravado? Scared. What were they afraid of the collision of the 6th fleet with the ships of Russia? So here, if only the Mediterranean, by and large, the 6th fleet will not let anyone down. But both in the USA and in Russia, there are adequate people at the helm of the leadership and they are afraid for the fate of the world. And they know that if something unforeseen happens, some kind of provocation, then the confrontation of ships in the Mediterranean will not mean anything. Strategic forces will be involved and the world will be our kayuk.

          The leadership of both countries is afraid of this. And all normal people on the planet should be afraid of any confrontations at which the end of the world can occur.

          And you without analysis, cheers, they scared us. Yes, and submarines, if any. They have long been detected, as soon as they left their bases in the Baltic Sea, the Barents Sea from the Far Eastern waters.

          They are not afraid of war because they are used to the fact that they are on an island and no one will reach them, except for Russia and, probably, China. Those. if there is an increase in tension, then we will quickly find ourselves (or already there) near their shores. I think it really stops them and annoys them.

        At the present stage, you are right. But I want to remind you of how the American fleet fought in World War II with Japanese squadrons. There was no smell of cowardice there. The battles were evil and uncompromising. Read the history of naval battles of the Second World War.
        I really do not like amers. But as a professional military man, I also really do not like hatred and underestimation of the enemy. I don’t believe that American sailors were scared, they also have traditions for every fleet. The politicians, led by Obama, were frightened and gave the order to leave the sixth fleet. I spoke with the American military quite often. They, like us, are proud of their country and are ready to die for it. Do not flatter yourself that one amer is worth dying and the rest will run. This will not happen. But everyone is driven by the political leadership of both us and them. As for the superiority of forces in unleashing conflicts, this is a common practice for any state.

      There is a version (it was announced in English and other Western newspapers) that the American ships left the Mediterranean not just like that, but by an unspoken agreement with Russia. Allegedly, the United States finally realized that nothing good is coming out in Syria and militants from Al-Qaeda may come to power, and therefore, they say, they will not interfere if Russian ships enter Tartus, disembark the Marines and they under the guise of salvation Russian citizens will restore order in Syria. They say that the Americans do not need another Libya, where it can be - they will kill the Americans, and there will be a territory from which to attack their faithful ally - Israel. I'll make a reservation that this is a version.

        In mathematical logic, there is such a statement: From a false statement you can always infer a true statement.
        Your version would be more like the truth, without being in the context of the current moment. The United States has not yet fully decided on the state sovereignty of the states, so it is not up to large-scale wars.
        I think that the assumption that the United States has seen the light of Al Qaeda is not correct, since the United States initially sponsored it, armed it, in order to overthrow the existing regime. In your opinion, after the fall of the regime, who in that case should have come to power? It seems that Morsi has already shown who comes to her, and enough time has passed since the imposition of "democracy" in Egypt.

      They have a different psychology, common to all mankind, where their own I is accustomed to everything. And where there is a place for I, there is no place for the concept of "must" or "duty to the motherland and honor"
      So, at the expense of amerskoy psychology, a long time ago my father-in-law put me on the online game "sea battle", nothing special, you buy pirate ships, guns, walk the seas, take other online players on the gop-stop, form alliances, guilds etc.
      I was sick with this toy for 3 months (despite the fact that I almost did not play and do not play games, but it was delayed only once)
      And I played both on Russian maps, and on American. In Russian, everything is as usual, the horde flies on one who clearly has no chance, but this one is thrashed to the last in the hope that someone will help, but the fact of a desperate struggle pleased.
      And on the American map I allowed myself to attack whole fleets of the enemy with a rather weak ship insolently, while I didn’t have a real chance to win, but for some reason the Americans scattered like scalded ones. Such an impression that they have bestial psychology, they attack only with a flock and only at the weak, but at the same time they seek to run away from any threat or any loss or loss.
      I don’t want to compare the game with the American sailors and don’t think that I’ve projected everything into foolish games and project everything onto real naval formations. NO! But even children from an early age they accept this model of behavior. Of course, it is not surprising that they did the same here. It’s just that this situation reminded me very much of the game when I played it more than five years ago

        Two of our team members were at the other end of the map - they also searched for the enemy and did not have time to reach us. Therefore, I decided as a team commander to stick in three.
        Our sniper asked me to find a place on the nearest high-rise. He asked the machine gunner to take a position closer in the ruins of the barn, and he walked around the village from house to house. So the first one we killed on the edge of the village quite quickly, apparently he heard me and looked out the window of the outer house, then our sniper removed it. The second got out of the neighboring house, the position was uncomfortable and I threw a grenade into the opening, ran into the inside and finished it off.

        But with three I met the Americans in the center of the village. They fled to the sounds of gunfire and apparently their cries, I suspect they also played through the headset and were one team. Well, they are running at me to their full height, and I look at them and here they are turning around and knocking over. I don’t know English very well, but our sniper in their chat in the game asked, where are you? they are silent, then he asked - after all, he alone runs at you, and you three? Then they answered - then your soldier has something that will kill the three of us! A normal person will not run alone for three!

      Not fighters are Americans. Oh, not the fighters :(


      From the most dangerous thing in a war is underestimating the enemy. All of our lost wars in history began with hat-hopping moods.
      Remember at least the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905.
      If necessary, Americans can and can fight without Coca-Cola. Syria is simply not the same for them as it is for us. They are not yet ready for war with Russia (a nuclear power!) Because of a piece of land in the eastern Mediterranean. Especially for them (pind-wasps) this land is unnecessary. But for us this is already a front, still remote, but the front of the struggle is already for our Motherland.
      Therefore, the Americans, having heard our mood, acted with dignity - quietly left without unnecessary militant rhetoric, such as celebrating Catholic Christmas. I think this is a wise move on their part.
      Just don't make this farce with "hurray-patriotic" rhetoric. Everything is serious enough, and the American ships left not because they were scared of our sailors (as the author of the article claims).
      Moscow just made it clear to Washington that Russia, in cases of open aggression by NATO and the United States, is ready to openly stand on the side of its faithful ally, in the flesh, until the Russian armed forces participate in the conflict. And our fleet is only a confirmation of the seriousness of our intentions.
      In this situation, the Americans are not ready to invade Syria, so there is no point in holding a large fleet formation there.

      Yes, it seems that the article is not bad, with an attempt at analysis, but these children's puppy delights, about - "6th fleet ran away", "scared of our group" - not seriously, all the military are following orders, the Americans left, having received such an order the military-political situation. There is no need to draw such conclusions, you must respect the enemy.

With such a turn of events, I, in the place of NATO, would also start thinking about how to solve this ailment. After all, no diets help.
      IF ENZYMAL INSUFFICIENCY (pancreatitis, achilic gastritis and other diseases) or in case of malabsorption in the small intestine (enteritis and other diseases of the small intestine), the secreted mass is increased due to incompletely digested food and water.
      FOR MIXED DIET WITH MEAT PRODUCTS, the rate of discharge of stools is 1 time per day.
      WITH MIXED DIET WITH SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF VEGETABLES, the number of bowel movements is 2 times a day.
      With a raw plant diet, the number of bowel movements reaches 3-4 times a day.

    I have such a conclusion based on this article. the Americans were really preparing something there, but when the Russian fleet approached, they decided that Russia would intercede for Syria if the United States got there and took their fleet first because of the uselessness so as not to start a military confrontation with Russia and secondly that there would be no incidents even between the sailors of our countries, which under certain circumstances can also develop into a confrontation

    I don’t think that they were all afraid, without a doubt, of course, history teaches that the Russians are fighting to the end, it just happened that the Americans will tell us that we aren’t in business, and this is a big danger, they can freely do all kinds of official provocations, but they are not there as there were not us in Vietnam

      I have such a conclusion based on this article

      Most likely, our guys sat down with American guys somewhere in a cafe in Spain and said something like: "Guys, you have a fleet there, but why go into p ... with your hands? We will still come and get up, and if necessary, we will shoot everything on board. What do you want in return so as not to get confused under your feet? "
      Amers naturally know what they want - Africa, Iran, something else. Bargained for 10-15 days, according to the principle "our president said that fuck you, and not a pipeline through Syria" - "well then our asked to convey that Turkey resumes flights at the border" - "yes, okay, but if that - we land all the BDK on the shore and arm the Kurds "-" no, it is not necessary with the Kurds, let's better move away, and then turn around "-" good, but then we will not veto Africa at the UN in the UN. " And so on.
      Well, we agreed, the amers left, we came, and what we really agreed on - we will find out after six months to develop the situation. In any case, Turkey shut up specifically, is silent in a rag, and we somehow suddenly helped France to cram into Mali ...
      We are following the situation with great interest.

    That is, getting into their conflict now their losses are not inevitable, even now, when our grouping is not so significant, I believe that success should be developed, taking into account all possible directions, but not in a hurry. There are still ground operations ahead, Europe is too early to go on an open conflict, but they have the opportunity to spoof, the modest silence of Turkey surprises, a lot of things depend on them, they are now like a bowl with scales.

    Article is nonsense. Amer apparently left for other reasons. No wonder all the jackals of the Persian Gulf have been saying for a week that Syria has 4 weeks left. Apparently everything is already decided and ready. We wait. Events are clearly at a denouement. The fact that something has been decided in Syria is no longer in doubt, it is not without reason that our people got there in a rush.

    You don’t have to hold the Americans for fools and cowards, at least if you felt such force behind you as an aircraft carrier, and without the first battle they would hellishly dumped. It seems to me that there is some kind of subtle game. I’m more afraid for our sailors, everyone knows the stubbornness and narrow thought of our command. No matter how they started some sort of mess.
    What if the Yankees intentionally dumped so as not to scare our presence with our presence and let us get involved in the conflict in Syria ????

      That's why they piled up. Knowing ours, and not planning to use the fleet for an offensive, solely for sending air groups or sending tomohawks, ours can confront them with a fact. And when we will keep each other in sight and will give the command "Volley"! If you retreat, they will completely lose face. Ochkanut simply put. They will have a choice, either get involved in the battle or leave. And that would not be smeared in shit now, they left the reach of our Navy.

    I know why you do not like what is written in the article, because it is written there because the situation is actually at the moment, that is, the Americans sailed away in response to the approach of our marine grouping.
    if our ships hadn’t sent ships there, then the Americans would still have sailed there, and you would have liked it, but you wouldn’t have written it openly, you would have written that they say they are pouring Syria and not sending help there.
    here there are, of course, frank patriots from USA and the West who just do not openly write glory to America, but there are many hidden pseudo patriots of Russia, who always make comments doubt the victory of Russia, I know this, for several months I have already analyzed the mood and messages of many of you.

From the same experience, I think that it’s not for nothing that they dumped them from there, and not at all out of fright, but they are probably preparing some kind of meanness, otherwise they can’t.

    The United States intends to return aircraft carriers and other ships to the base ports, as well as temporarily stop military exercises in the event of a budget sequestration, said General Martin Dempsey, head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the American Armed Forces.
    "If there are reductions, we will withdraw [from the deployment areas] the aircraft carriers, return the ships to the ports, and also stop the exercises for a short time," Dempsey said, RIA Novosti reports.


    As reported by the newspaper "VZGLYAD", earlier the head of the Pentagon Leon Panetta said that the Pentagon had begun to implement austerity measures aimed at mitigating the financial consequences of a large-scale cut in the US Department of Defense budget.

But the Chinese are able to fill the surface of not only the Mediterranean Sea, but also the Pacific Ocean with their submarines. The displaced water will flood the entire western coast of the United States, and after relocation to the Atlantic east. The entire surviving leadership of the states is destroyed by sighting forage for submarines floating above the flooded territory.

    Of course, it is not clear for what reasons: the strategic, tactical, economic or moral 6 fleet left Middle East, I am not the chairman of the committee of chiefs of staff of the USA and I am not the Minister of Defense, I don’t know their plans. I also do not have all the information on the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy or the Minister of Defense. It’s just sometimes nice to think that they are still afraid of us, which means they respect us. Against the backdrop of general shouts that the polymers have been cured and everything has already been stolen, it’s gratifying to see that the Russian fleet is alive and able to solve, perhaps not global tasks, but in one specific region for sure. And the fact that the Americans are cowardly is well known. The fact remains that there were 6 fleet in the Mediterranean Sea, our squadron appeared and the fleet left. And whoever left the battlefield won. According to this principle, the French still believe that they won the battle of Borodino.

I was always amazed by all the stern patriots on the sites, and how they would see Americans at an exhibition where they would immediately rush to take pictures with them, almost lick their ass and kiss the gums of blacks, frantically remembering something from “London from the Capital of Great Britain” . Do you know any specific example why you are not warriors? There were a lot of cases when their soldiers covered grenades with themselves. Regarding the fact that they almost always fight with an unequal enemy, why is this a minus? It would be better, like in Chechnya, to throw newly recruited conscripts against trained militant mercenaries to even out the chances?

        and how where do they see Americans at an exhibition where they immediately rush to take pictures with them, almost lick their ass and kiss the gums of blacks,


        I already spoke about my personal experience of communicating with NATO inspectors. when two amers were almost pushed out like kittens by the scumbag there was a reason. Don't bother sticking your nose where it doesn't belong. I later received Lyulei - they complained. By the way, the Germans only suppressed their smiles and pretended that they had not noticed anything.

        And by the way, in communication with each other there were a Belgian and two Germans. a Dutchman and two Amer, these two were just like from a leper colony. when everyone went one way and the Americans went the other, one German said to the other, like, click them, where are they?
        This purely Russian wave raised his hand and lowered it powerlessly and said a lot about the NATO bloc. Got it through Za.

          Well, yes, Americans love to fight with an unequal enemy! Ashno is at war with entire countries, destroying their people cowardly from the air, and they love the prisoners so much, oh, you watch the video and think what great fellows, they imprisoned them here, they shot them from a helicopter there. The Americans were never distinguished by their valor during the Second World War, they surrendered for my dear. As for taking pictures, I won’t tell you from Krasnoyarsk for other cities, but here they would rather snatch them than take pictures with them angry

    Let's look at things soberly - the American fleet in that region is cooler than the Russian one - there are more planes and ships. I don't like it, but that's the reality. The Americans left not because they are afraid of Russian ships, but because they did not want to start a war with Russia over Syria.

Many people now crap on their homeland and the army, but they will have to fight with their own equipment, no matter what it is (well, if someone wants to become a deserter, that’s a different story). Even if they are on spaceships with plasma cannons, we will still go against them. And they will crap themselves - their opponents are only rebels from third world countries with destroyed equipment or without it at all.

            Why can't you be happy? Syria = an ally of Russia, if you lose allies at this rate, then soon the Americans will take on Iran and then the missile defense system will be completely in the Caspian Sea. As long as there is a Strategic Missile Forces, the amers will not attack Russia, or if they do not surround the missile defense system on all sides in order to protect themselves by at least 90% by improving it, then they can strike the first blow. In short, the closer the missile defense system is to the borders, the more effective it is, because The rocket is most vulnerable during takeoff. The United States will never be a friend of Russia.

    Now more than ever you should be wary of any hidden motives, etc. I think before. As the 6th Fleet left the Mediterranean, it carefully scattered rakes throughout the Middle East with the goal of pushing us towards them and then showing it all on all world channels.

    After the exercises, our people will sooner or later go to their bases, and the amers will return dressed all in white and with a feeling of “righteous indignation” they will carry out their dirty deeds. They can’t just leave, something is afoot according to the Anglo-Saxon scenario.

And yet, the Americans, I think, were not afraid of our ships, but of the possible confrontation with Russia and the proximity to the southern borders of the Russian Federation, with the possibility of guaranteed destruction by non-nuclear ballistic missiles from the territory of the Russian Federation, with the absence of any kind of missile defense at the approach line from this side...

    Clueless,
    Are they even sick, is there a nuclear landmine there?
    If they use nuclear weapons against our ships, then in response a missile will fly to the base of their aircraft carriers!

    sas,
    And your fleet there in Ukraine is so strong, strong, even the Americans can’t compete with you laughing
    In Russia, in any case, we are NOW building more than 30 surface ships and submarines
    And dozens of ships are undergoing repairs and modernization
    For example, all 3 ships of the Orlan project are now being repaired and modernized
    So shut your mouth and don't talk wassat

      Has Ukraine sent its ships to the shores of Syria? No. So what does the Navy have to do with it? Did I talk somewhere about the power of the Ukrainian Naval Forces? Or is Ukraine claiming the role of “a superpower again? You wrote all this off topic.
      And how many of these 30 under construction are 1st rank ships? How many aircraft carriers?, How many cruisers? Destroyers? Maximum - frigate. And everything else is corvettes and artillery ships. Submarines? Well, well, the day before yesterday "Varshavyanka" and the unremarkable "Boreas"
      Regarding closing your mouth, I forgot to ask you.

        Before you talk Russophobic nonsense, you need to think about it. Frigates and corvettes are an integral part of the fleet; all countries have them, and that’s why the Russian Federation also builds them. Boreas are not outstanding? Sane? The 4th generation nuclear strategic submarine missile carrier is, in your opinion, nonsense. The same probably as nuclear submarines with cruise missiles of the Yasen project. This is the same as saying that 5th generation aircraft are not outstanding in any way. First read their performance characteristics and their capabilities. The Ukrainian Navy can only dream about it. The modernization of the Orlan TAKR project was tactfully bypassed. A project for a guided missile destroyer is already being developed, as is a project for a new aircraft carrier. And most importantly, money is allocated for all this and construction.

    I don't like the tone of the article! The reason for the departure of the US fleet is known - internal problems with financing, due to which the fleet may be laid up off the coast of America. And this is presented as a resounding victory for our group.
    This is a harmful article, it confuses common sense and strongly smacks of portentousness!
    Respect the enemy and treat him as at least an equal until he wins!!! This is true psychology! We haven't won yet!!! There is no point in pretending to be a pug!
    Perform your tasks with dignity, increase the combat effectiveness of the army and navy and be ready for war! And not scream like a flock of macaques at the sight of a leaving lion.

    Yes, the article was written in a humorous tone, but that does not change the essence of the event. But the essence is this: missile ships (Russia) came - the main striking force of the modern fleet, aircraft carriers - the main striking force of the Second World War - left.
    So, missiles, let’s look at what the United States has, and they have the Harpoon missile in the amount of 8 pieces per one ship of the warrant (no matter a destroyer or cruiser), we carry out a simple arithmetic calculation and find out the total salvo of missiles of the warrant. In addition, there is an air group - fifty aircraft carrying the same harpoons, an air version, let the experts tell you how many there are on the aircraft carrier. Let me draw your attention to the fact that “Harpoon” is not a Vulcan or a Basalt, it’s more like a Club or Uranus. A subsonic missile that can be shot down.
    How successfully American aviation will operate in the S300F operating area is an open question; of course, they can attack from afar, but the success of such attacks will be the opposite of the launch range.
    The reverence for aircraft carriers is unclear.
    Let me add that harpoons were put into service in 1977, and the Americans have no complexes about this.

      What is a radio horizon, carrier-based AWACS aircraft, air attack from ultra-low altitudes due to the radio horizon, study electronic warfare aircraft. And there’s nothing to talk about. We can only say that in the event of an attack from the American AUG, our surface ships will only have about 5 minutes to live. To begin with, the S-300 must be aimed, and before that the target must be detected.

        Well, no one promised that it would be easy, what does Syria have with AWACS? What about helicopters from ships? There are options, not everything is so gloomy. The electronic warfare capabilities of a ship and an aircraft are incomparable. And with all this, the harpoon remains a subsonic missile.

          Syria does not have AWACS aircraft. There is, in my opinion, only one ship helicopter there for the entire squadron (there are only 2 in service with the fleet) and its detection range capabilities are not comparable to Pendov’s Hawkeyes. The detection range of fighters is 100-150 km in total, that is, they can shoot back undetected, and the number of ships is 250-285, that is, they also may not enter the detection zone. Hawkeye can see a flying target at a distance of 250 to 540 km. As for the detection of ships, there is quite a lot of shipping there, and from thousands of signals it is necessary to understand exactly where the non-civilian ones are.

          That's how it's calculated.
          Ahead is the supersonic HARM. Harpoon - against a defenseless target with broken radars. There is no need for it to be supersonic - otherwise it will be too heavy and unreasonably expensive.

                    A terrible dilemma arises before the doomed ship: given the short distance, it is impossible to fight off even ten small, but fast and evil HARMS, the only way out is to turn off the radar


                    It’s completely falling apart. And at the same time, it requires such complex coordination that it’s unlikely to succeed in combat conditions.

      Each F/A-18 on average lifts two Harpoons (subsonic anti-ship missiles) or two AGM-88 HARM (small supersonic air-to-surface missile, speed 2M) - used to destroy radar.

      How successfully American aviation will operate in the S300F operating area is an open question.

      The issue of confrontation between aviation and air defense systems was resolved half a century ago. A low-flying aircraft can approach a ship with impunity at a distance of about 30-40 km and remain undetected. The ship's radars cannot see what is happening on the horizon - radio waves travel in a straight line.

      It's time! The planes are making a slide (at this moment the S-300 will detect air targets) - purchasing Kharpus and Harpuns for homing - again going to low altitude. The signal is gone - the S-300 (S-400, Patriot, Aegis) is useless.

      A terrible dilemma arises before the doomed ship: given the short distance, it is impossible to fight off even ten small, but fast and evil KHARMs; the only way out is to turn off the radar. But if the cruiser turns off the radars, it will receive an armful of Harpoons on board.

      I'm telling you, there are no fools sitting there

                        But they are supersonic, and the flight time is short. The radar has moved hundreds of meters from the point of shutdown, and the NARMA’s damage radius is trivial (if the B-52 was not shot down by a close explosion) So you can turn it on. This is not to mention that there are also lower-power radars that could and don't turn it off.

Do you understand that you are undermining their main dogma that NATO members are not fighters at all, you can only throw a hat at them and finish off the snot.

      If you load Nimitz's cellars with Harpoons alone (weight - about 700 kg), you will get 2700 pieces - a paranormal amount

      The aircraft carrier's ammunition load depends on the assigned mission. How many anti-ship missiles and Kharmovs are in a typical American aircraft carrier's ammunition compartment... honestly, I don't know. But they exist, and there are many of them.

      Purely for example, the first thing that caught my eye was the ammunition load of the Essex aircraft carriers, three times smaller in size, from the Second World War. There's enough for everyone:

    There is another option. Erdogan is the Turkish Putin. And he is building a Great Islamic Turkey - a new center of power in the region of Middle Earth and the Near Middle East. Which (center) the United States does not need at all. Analysts could suggest that Obama kill 3-4 birds with one stone:
    1 - negotiate specific concessions from Russia (we’ll find out where later, or we won’t find out at all);
    2- let Erdogan screw up in Syria and hide his ambitions in the anus;
    3 - to prevent the construction of a new gas pipeline to the EU (competitors) with cheap gas from Qatar; Gazprom will petition Assad about this;
    4 -Save a lot of budget money for domestic use in the USA;

    Disputes are different and strange on the forum. I read everything. All of you, dear friends, forget that there are satellites (such as “communications”, “geological exploration”, etc.) of which a countless number fly. So, I doubt about the danger of a surprise attack by Russian ships, however, since the takeoff will be instantly detected.
    Further, many (almost all) forget about China, who are also tired of us. But China also has something to give to the vaunted 6th Fleet.
    And about the teachings. Indeed, it is better to stay away from the exercise site stop , otherwise, inadvertently, "some"BASALT (although now there seems to be a P-1000 VULCANO complex) on...no, it won’t seem like much. And then it turns out that it’s “accidental.” wassat

    I consider these maneuvers to be small elements of a big game. I don’t think that the Pentagon is pissed off, they don’t care deeply about the lives of their own soldiers, on the contrary - war is vital for the American economy to shake itself up.. There’s something else here, and I think this is connected with certain agreements. Politics is a game of compromises. And this is not just politics - it’s a big game.
