Russian jet passes near US warship

[seeder]

OK well I was surfing and come across 'another version' of this story.

In this story, the Russian jet DISABLED the Aegis systems on the ship! Wonder how truthful it is, or just propaganda? One thing for sure either way, the USS Donald Cook has left the area now

quote:

The demonstration was original enough. A bomber without any weapons, but having on-board equipment for jamming enemy radar, worked against a destroyer equipped with "Aegis", the most modern system of air and missile defense. But this system of mobile location, in this case the ship, has a significant drawback. That is, the target tracking capabilities. They work well when there is a number of these ships which can coordinate with each other somehow.

In this case there was just one destroyer. And, apparently, the algorithm of the radar in the "Aegis” system on the destroyer did not load under the influence of jamming by the Su-24. It was therefore not only a nervous reaction to the fact of flying around by the Russian bomber which was common practice during the Cold War. The reaction of the Americans was due to the fact that most modern system, especially its informative or radar part, did not work adequately. Therefore, there was such a nervous reaction to the whole episode.

After the incident, the foreign media reported that "Donald Cook" was rushed into a port in Romania. There all the 27 members of the crew filed a letter of resignation. It seems that all 27 people have written that they are not going to risk their lives. This is indirectly confirmed by the Pentagon statement according to which the action demoralized the crew of the American ship.
