have u heard of aegis, ratheon, ? u probably havent heard of or read abt america's ability to intercept missiles mid air with 100% accuracy.

I forgot that your were born in 1989 and I shouldn't have bothered replying your mentions.

If not, you wouldn't be asking me about the same overrated & useless Aegis system that have been defeated by the Russians. You should enlighten yourself.


What Frightened The USS Donald Cook So Much In The Black Sea


“The State Department acknowledged that the crew of the destroyer USS Donald Cook has been gravely demoralized ever since their vessel was flown over in the Black Sea by a Russian Sukhoi-24 (Su-24) fighter jet which carried neither bombs nor missiles but only an electronic warfare device.

On 10 April 2014, the USS Donald Cook entered the waters of the Black Sea and on 12 April a Russian Su-24 tactical bomber flew over the vessel triggering an incident that, according to several media reports, completely demoralized its crew, so much so that the Pentagon issued a protest.

The USS Donald Cook (DDG-75) is a 4th generation guided missile destroyer whose key weapons are Tomahawk cruise missiles with a range of up to 2,500 kilometers, and capable of carrying nuclear explosives. This ship carries 56 Tomahawk missiles in standard mode, and 96 missiles in attack mode.

The US destroyer is equipped with the most recent Aegis Combat System. It is an integrated naval weapons systems which can link together the missile defense systems of all vessels embedded within the same network, so as to ensure the detection, tracking and destruction of hundreds of targets at the same time. In addition, the USS Donald Cook is equipped with 4 large radars, whose power is comparable to that of several stations. For protection, it carries more than fifty anti-aircraft missiles of various types.


Meanwhile, the Russian Su-24 that buzzed the USS Donald Cook carried neither bombs nor missiles but only a basket mounted under the fuselage, which, according to the Russian newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta [2], contained a Russian electronic warfare device called #Khibiny.

As the Russian jet approached the US vessel, the electronic device disabled all radars, control circuits, systems, information transmission, etc. on board the US destroyer. In other words, the all-powerful Aegis system, now hooked up – or about to be – with the defense systems installed on NATO’s most modern ships was shut down, as turning off the TV set with the remote control.

The Russian Su-24 then simulated a missile attack against the USS Donald Cook, which was left literally deaf and blind. As if carrying out a training exercise, the Russian aircraft – unarmed – repeated the same maneuver 12 times before flying away.

After that, the 4th generation destroyer immediately set sail towards a port in Romania.

Since that incident, which the Atlanticist media have carefully covered up despite the widespread reactions sparked among defense industry experts, no US ship has ever approached Russian territorial waters again.

According to some specialized media, 27 sailors from the USS Donald Cook requested to be relieved from active service.”

oh please, who doesnt know that an emp device is a huge threat to warfare? evn the usa is scared of the possibility of north korea sending a missile high in space to avoid radar detection and knock out its electrical systems. dude wat u are sharing is common knowledge. without the emp onboard the fighter jet, if the jet were to launch and attack, the ship would be able to deploy counter measures.
And dude stop being childish by refering to the number in my username, doing such doesnt make u mature.
Here i was thinking u were going to come up with a constructive argument such as a missile that can avoid missile defense systems. but no u chose the childish route, interesting

Alright! I'm done with you. If it was just an EMP, Amerika would have used it to shut down all the ships, jets & submarines of all her perceived enemies. I know you haven't heard of Magrav.

Anyways, don't bother to quote me again - I'm done. grin
