Defense News: aircraft carriers "Harry Truman" and "Charles de Gaulle" can cooperate to attack the IG

74
The American aircraft carrier "Gary Truman" can join the French aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean to attack IG, reports Look with reference to Defense News.



“The American aircraft carrier is heading for the Persian Gulf and is due to arrive there in December. But Pentagon officials said they were discussing the possibility of leaving the aircraft carrier for several days or longer in the Eastern Mediterranean, ”the newspaper writes.

Earlier it was reported that "Charles de Gaulle" will go to the Persian Gulf. However, after the terrorist attacks in Paris, the command reversed the decision and sent the ship to the shores of Syria and Lebanon so that it would join the antiterrorist operation as soon as possible.

              Now there is a tug-of-war with whom France will bomb ISIS with Russia or America ... On the one hand, it is very profitable for the States to win over to their side the French, who are bursting with righteous anger, so that, under the auspices of- #MSTIMZAPARIZH, stick to France and thereby make the world community forget about their disastrous one and a half year campaign (against the background of an effective 1,5 month work of the Russian Aerospace Forces in Syria) in Iraq / Syria to "fight" (sponsoring and aid) with ISIS and all sorts of other NUSRAS. Considering the long-standing (alas, vassal) ties between France and the United States, as well as the fact that France is a NATO member, it is quite possible that Oland will exchange "France's Righteous Wrath" for another joint US-UG.
              On the other hand, Hollande has a unique opportunity to REALLY "kill in the toilet" terrorists from ISIS together with "Black Jack" - in the person of Putin and Russia. The whole world knows that the Russian Aerospace Forces really (unlike the United States) RUNS ISIS, and therefore the alliance (albeit temporary) with Russia in the fight against ISIS promises Oland a healthy increase in his rating, as well as the fact that Oland from a rag can become a partner "Black Jack" is such a tough cowboy outside "Western Law" who honestly knocks down frostbitten Iroquois (attacking the city and cutting off scalps of innocent townspeople) without asking for a dough or Sheriff's stars. And it is "Black Jack" who at the moment tacitly appeals to the majority of the electorate of Oland himself, because Jack is not just cool, but also Jack is a MAN of his WORDS.
              The choice is for Oland, I hope this time he will make the right decision (at least for the sake of his image), otherwise, in the alliance (France adopts the next Dog-Style pose) with the United States, Oland will just ..., mmm, miss a unique opportunity to raise his image France, like his own, as he once missed it with his pitiful "Fart" along the Mistrals ...

                  Greetings Eugene hi
                  In this case, "Black Jack" is meant as a symbol of a noble and tough, but nevertheless a criminal in the understanding of the Western world. This type came again from American legends of the Wild West, in the Japanese interpretation it is Ronin "Outlaw samurai". Analogies with "Black / smoked / tanned / coal / unwashed - Obama" are inappropriate here. For a person is not determined by the color of his skin, but by his content.

He backed up with the real facts the long-awaited statement: from the former glory of these hundred-hundred-year-old giants with their nuclear power plants now only pathos remains.

          In general, it seems to me that the Amers have two reasons, though I don’t know which one is in priority: to cling to the future victory (which Kerry has already made loudly today), and to interfere with Russia, as soon as possible, in the destruction of the Islamic State ...

      It's just that the mattress has the strongest heartburn about the fact that our grouping is on the roadstead in the Mediterranean: the cruiser "Moskva", "Fearless" - the escort ship (frigate according to NATO classification) "Admiral Panteleev" - the sailors on this ship are serving in the fight with pirates. The missile cruiser Varyag is the flagship of the Russian Pacific Fleet. Landing ships Novocherkassk, Minsk, Shabalin, Admiral Nevelskoy, Peresvet, also went on patrol and are part of the grouping. Thus, the fleet in the Mediterranean can ensure the fulfillment of any task: for this everything is ready.It can be assumed that it is the Russian sailors who, by their power, serve as a deterrent that does not allow the United States to use force against Syria

    Yes, it seems. The French are our allies (in this particular case), the Americans are allies of the French. So that...

    At a meeting with the leadership of the Ministry of Defense, Russian President Vladimir Putin instructed the command of the Moscow cruiser, located in the Mediterranean Sea, to establish contacts with the French military, who will soon begin to interact with the Russian Federation in the anti-terrorist operation in Syria.
    “The Russian military should work with French colleagues who approach the coast of Syria on an aircraft carrier, as with allies,” the Russian leader emphasized.

    Give them a separate area for work and let them "freak" there so that their shoals are not written off to us.

    Good offer!))))

    It’s ridiculous to think that almost the whole world is fighting with bearded bandits with aircraft carriers and planes, and they all run through holes, shoot from the quiet and cannot win yet. And all because no one wants a ground operation, but this is understandable. But the Syrians hard to fight too.

      A couple of such "allies" and enemies are not necessary. These tenants do not come for long, but they remain forever.

    Maybe you should think about such a moment! ))) And seriously too!
    Let them fight!

    Well, no, to give the battlefield for a great life, you’re making a mistake,

    In December, there will be a cloud of aircraft over Syria from the Mediterranean:
    30 Russian, 30 French, 60 American.

    ISIS will probably be forced to retire back to Iraq.

        This is if the excavator does not scowl, and the bucket does not hurt them. winked

    Tell me, knowledgeable comrades, are there any obstacles in order to check our "Kuzu" in combat conditions? It is clear that the number of the air group on board is not very large, and the armament on the aircraft, suitable for ironing the IG is not enough, but nevertheless, why not use it for its intended purpose (not even for the sake of some tangible return, then there are FABs quite effective)? Such a chance (no matter how cynical it may sound) to test his work in a real combat situation. Crews gained experience in ships, strategic and tactical aviation too, and an aircraft-carrying cruiser?

      what will his modest air group give the situation? this time, and the second, his capital is looming! recently darned mal-mal, so that he lived to see a real repair.

    somehow it all seems strange ... but Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill has not yet said his word ... well, in the sense of MI6, maybe they are waiting for the chestnuts to cool?

    They will bomb civilians, hospitals and bring down their deeds on the Russians. I expect another from them.

    Gary Truman, an American aircraft carrier, can join the French aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean to strike at IS

    As far as I remember, Putin declared only the French as allies. hi

    The name of the aircraft carrier is suitable - immediately recall:
    "If we see that Germany is winning the war, we should help Russia; if Russia is winning, we should help Germany, and let them kill each other as much as possible. All this is for the good of America."Harry Truman. The New York Times, June 24, 1941).

    So we need to participate in the US fight against terrorism on the same principle ... am As the usurers say, "debt by payment scary!" bully

    In my opinion, the United States will send an aircraft carrier that can bomb IS, but cannot touch Assad. In Turkey they have forces, but they cannot use them. Russia included long-range aviation, hid the codibers, there are air defense and coastal systems. We will continue to draw stars, and Assad to beat terrorists on earth. Terrorists flee home to their patrons, not for this the United States wants to stiffen the Turkish border, but it would be worth it.
