    And even if it was a Su-34, the story still reads like a Russian Tom Clancy fantasy.

    The story is just transparent BS.  The claims to the events are not attributed to any specific source.
    The claims about USN sailor resignations is absurd, with no clear way any Russian source would know that info,
    Resigning your post while on combat duty would certainly result in being imprisoned, yet the story ends there,
    and no further info on the alleged event has come out, even from Russian military sources.
    The story is padded with generic info on the ship class (threatening reference to nukes) which doesn't bear on specific situation.
    Never mind the technical matter of the idea of Khibini on Su-24.
    It's obviously a "feel good" story for certain perspectives, but can't be taken seriously outside of kindergarten.net.
    Why one can complain about Western MSM fabrication or mis-coverage while applauding such crap is beyond me.

    I am not sold on the idea that this story is entirely "false" considering the constant lies coming out of the US media.

    The Khibiny EW system were able to neutralize the AEGIS phased array radar target tracking capabilities while the ship's crew was unable to re-boot the system.

    A more pertinent question is whether the jammer affected the radar system itself or only the computer-based component or both at the same time ?

    Also , it is essential to note that the Aegis destroyer Donald Cook left the Black Sea post this incident .

    1)I suspect that the Sukhoi could jam the destroyer's radar.
    In a full scale war tho, planes could be shot down. Ships wouldnt hesitate to shoot. And neither would planes.

    Overall, I suspect that superpower v superpower, a LOT of radar could be jammed. Most equipment is designed for use vs lesser powers.
    For superpower disputes... u basically threaten nukes/false flags or other measures.

    2)This sounds a hell of a lot like EM weapons may have been used to disorientate the US crew.
    They already had the stress of "is this ww3 starting... what should we do..." etc.

    EM weapons arent fiction. It seems very likely the US used them to substantially demoralise the Iraqi troops in GW2, astheyd been putting up a fair defence until then.

    I cant understand why Yanukovich didnt use them vs Maidenloons, or why they arent being used in the S and E Ukraine.
    Perhaps they will be?

    I'm no expert on EW but I suspect several aircraft would be needed to jam a destroyers main radar.

    But I do find it surprising that the Su-24 buzzed the ship a dozen times without any countermeasures being taken by the ship

    What exactly was it supposed to do? Shoot it down?

    The situation has a lot to do with what happens... and of course whose toys belong to whom.

    If this US ship was in Iranian waters and it was firing on big powerful dangerous speed boats and a plane is detected approaching from 50km away or more then obviously the only result will be to shoot down a civilian airliner.

    In this case however the aircraft in question might have been equipped to shoot back so obviously they would do nothing.

    I have read that a single Mi-9 EW helo has blanked out large areas of civilian radar when occidentally turned on... the effectiveness of jamming is directly related to the square of distance so flying over the target radar would give it the best chance of defeating said radar, but jamming radar rarely damages the target radar...

    So far this is what we do know from the disclosures made by the US Navy :

    (1) A Su 24 "buzzed" the USS Donald Cook on April 10 , when it entered the Black Sea .

    (2) Aegis spotted from afar the approaching aircraft, and sounded alarm .

    (3) The ship's in board radars calculated the speed of the approaching target

    (4) After the incident the USS Donald Cook rushes to Romania .


    What we do NOT know is :

    (1) Did the algorithm of the radar in the “Aegis” not load under the influence of jamming by the Su-24 ? This is what may have caused the screens to go blank .

    (2) Why was the Donald Cook suddenly sent to dock at Romania ?


    Bear in mind that 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 .

    This goes for both, Su-24 was alone and therefore much weaker jamming capability then with several sources to create a high effective or at least dense EW environment for radar systemes.

    Since the western meida especially not reporting from official side as only "Russian bear aggression" and no comment on the fact that the ship retreated from the scene quickly after that shows already that it was indeed jammed by the Su-24. Usually americans are immidiatley reacting with additional propaganda in media how advanced they are but in this case they only use russophobic propaganda and not "We are the best" propaganda.

    No form of jamming I know will make the screens go blank... I would suggest this vessel had a malfunction and put in to port for repairs.

    I would point out that there was a film crew on board the AEGIS cruiser that shot down the Iranian Airbus and it showed a malfunction in launching the Standard SAM that shot down the target. It took a full 1 minute 30 seconds to correct the error to launch the missile... which performed as expected.

    One and a half minutes delay when a Shipwreck is coming will likely result in a ship wreck... or several.

    Issue a warning over the radio, lock onto the aircraft, take evasive maneuvers, lay a smokescreen.....just a few of the top of my head....I'm pretty sure heading to Romania isn't their standard SOP after being buzzed.

    ...

    There were reports that land based anti-ship batteries were also tracking the ship and it's not impossible that some land based jammers could've been used.

    This report is 100% bull.

    Stop trying to find reasoning for laughable nonsense.

    You guys....seriously.

    There is zero proof whatsoever anything changed in the operations of the destroyer's functions. Or spooked anyone.

    I am relying on logic and common sense, as well as technical information that is public ally available. The report that is causing this "speculation" isn't worth wiping my rear end with.

    I am surprised they didn't mention the US was pulling out of NATO due to fear of war with Russia, due to the Su-24s shocking capabilities.

    Lighten up TR-1... it could just as easily be about how the super AESA radars of the US ship led to the Su-24 accidently flying over the ship several times because its electronics were completely defeated and the plane had to get a visual location because every bit of electronics on the aircraft were fried by the super US ship.

    The US ship immediately pulled into port to celebrate their victory...

    Personally I find it nice that they even dare to suggest Russian superiority in military equipment... never would have happened even just 10 years ago in the early 2000s.

    Yep so Kibinhy is not the part of Su-24 avionics. So that story regarding Su-24 jamming Donald cook is wrong.

    The US Navy has accepted that Su 24 jammed the Aegis . Maybe the part in the report stating that the Kibinhy EW system was used is wrong .

    How exactly has the US Navy accepted the Su-24 jammed Aegis??!?!

    It was a RECO Su-24! It's jammer is (aside from old as hell) is for basic self protection.

    The US had send two destroyers to the Black sea . The USS Donald Cook and USS Taylor . Pentagon had then stated -

    “The Donald Cook’s mission is to reassure NATO allies and Black Sea partners of America’s commitment to strengthen and improve interoperability while working towards mutual goals in the region ."

    Donald Cook & Taylor were supposed to be in the Black Sea for an extended period of time . However , the Donald Cook cut short it's mission & left immediately after the incident . Pentagon has NOT clarified why it left abruptly .

    The Pentagon actually used the term "provocative" and "un professional" to describe the incident.
