I wonder if we have some type of directed energy weapon, like the kind they developed for use in urban pacification..............hit that plane with one that has had it's output ramped up. Be a shame if their electronics were burned out

Find spots on deck for 30-40 guys.   A practice tee set up.  40 golf ball salute, 40 sailors getting golf lessons

Be a damn shame to take a golf ball or 2 into a turbofan intake.

we should have at least hit them with a targeting radar (which I bet we did)

 True but these weren't Su-24MPs, easy way to spot are  additional fairings behind the cockpit and under the nose,which at least this one lacks. These were strike planes fucking around IME.

read a good techno thriller years ago about a lone DDG operating off the Falklands keeping the fucking Argie trash from invading. ships getting buzzed by the argie AF, one of the ships helicopters was in deep ship getting rocked by the Mirage doing to the buzzing. the senior LT helicopter called out of the shps system to have his helicopter armed AIR TO AIR he was gonna take on the mirage. Captain orders him to stand down, on the next pass she orders the chaff dispensers fired. the mirage ingests a shit load of FOB and limps off.

I understand that this type of thing is not new, but how did our guys know for sure that the Su-24s were not going to attack the ship?  I know the obvious answer is that we are not at war with Russia, but how can we allow that type of behavior and still say we are defending our ships?

Do we just let any old aircraft buzz our ships within 30' and say "oh what the hell they aren't going to attack?"

I thought the whole principle of fleet defense was not letting any threats get even close to the ship and the phalanx was a last ditch line of defense.  How can we let potentially hostile aircraft fly within 30' of our Navy?

If they actually had any intentions of attacking, they would not have come close enough to buzz the ship. They would have launched multiple anti-ship missiles from multiple aircraft at or near their maximum effective range.
