Read about it

"Aegis" spotted from afar the approaching aircraft, and sounded alarm. Everything went normally, American radars calculated the speed of the approaching target. And suddenly all the screens went blank. "Aegis" was not working any more, and the rockets could not get target information. Meanwhile, Su-24 flew over the deck of the destroyer, did battle turn and simulated missile attack on the target. Then it turned and repeated the maneuver. And did so 12 times.

Apparently, all efforts to revive the "Aegis" and provide target information for the defence failed. Russia's reaction to military pressure from the United States was profoundly calm, feels the Russian political scientist Pavel Zolotarev:

Ok, let's theorize that Russia has this capability.  I'm sure they don't, but bear with me.

If you could kill Aegis and take pot-shots at destroyers all day and were angling for a fight why would you show off the capability before you actually needed it?  That would have to be about the stupidest thing that Russian Naval Aviation could do.

No it's true guys.

I talked to a guy at the gun store who has a nephew that was on that ship.

He said I should buy up all the 7.62x39 that I can because when the Russians invade I will have ammo for battlefield pick ups.

Even if that did happen that way, which I sincerely doubt, there is no way in Hell anyone who was on board the ship would ever admit it.  That would be a huge problem.  That would be the kind of problem that would kick operations like the Skunk Works into high gear and money would flow.  And we'd only find out about it thirty years later.  That would be a national security matter that we'd have to clamp down on hard.  Or ignore it and instead make a call for a more inclusive and gender neutral Russia that respects the feelings of everyone that we like.  



More likely the ship's Captain was under orders to not go around responding to any provocation and did not target the Russian jet when it started buzzing the Cook.  I can see our current Ruling Junta sending a warship into that area with absolutely no use of force permitted at all.  All style, no substance.  That's the American Way these days.

May be BS may not be, however jamming technology is not difficult to understand.  Transmit pseudo-random noise over the spectrum used by an adversary's radar with a high enough PSD and they are effectively blind.

Im sure its propaganda, but some of you guys are underestimating Russian forces. I doubt they are as incompetent as you think they are. If our messiah gets us in to a shooting war with Russia its not going to be the same as fighting a bunch of illiterate savages with bomb strapped to them.

Russia doesn't want war, it would fuck up their plans.

They did this for the same reason you might pull your CCW when 5 guys suddenly start surrounding you in an alley. Sure by pulling your gun you give away your best capability possibly giving them a chance to counter it but hopefully just pulling your gun is enough to get them to back off so that you can continue your walk headed east down Ukraine alley.

I heard a story years ago that during WWII someone decided to brag about our manufacturing capabilities by sending our Soviet allies a drill the size of a human hair.
The Russians promptly drilled a hole in the shank and sent it back. Don't no if true or just a "Machine Shop" myth.
 Whether the radar jamming is true or not is hard to say.How would the Russians know they shut down our radar? Unless they could tell that no radar emissions were occurring? It would be a good way to signal a potential adversary that they have capabilities and to think twice before messing with them.

I'm more inclined to think that the Aegis system might have enough power and beam steerability to burn an SU-24 out of the sky at that range.

When one single aircraft radiates enough power to shut down an Aegis weapon system that aircraft is also radiating a big HERE I AM electronic signal that is really really easy to kill.
Also, if the Russians did kill an Aegis weapons system they lost the element of surprise.
It's not that hard to figure out what spectrum they are freaking and geeking from once its done and then come up with countermeasures to prevent that from happening again.

Not trying to shit on anyone's parade...but I've been on carriers in the center of a supposed AEGIS picket that were buzzed three or four times before we even got a single bird off the deck (armed with CATM-9s ).

All the way through the picket to the carrier, and had plenty of time to do whatever they needed to do.

Underestimating the Russkies--and overinflating our own prowess--isn't smart.

Best wishes to our boys out there.
