US destroyer “Donald Cook” with cruise missiles “Tomahawk” entered the neutral waters of the Black Sea on April 10. The purpose was a demonstration of force & intimidation in connection with the position of Russia in Ukraine and Crimea. The appearance of American warships in these waters is in contradiction of the Montreux Convention about the nature & duration of stay in the Black Sea by the military ships of countries not washed by this sea.

In response, Russia sent an unarmed bomber Su- 24 to fly around the U.S. destroyer. However, experts say that this plane was equipped with the latest Russian electronic warfare complex. According to this version, “Aegis” spotted from afar the approaching aircraft, & 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:
The demonstration was original enough. A bomber without any weapons, but having onboard equipment for jamming enemy radar, worked against a destroyer equipped with “Aegis”, the most modern system of air and missile defence.

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.

if that is the modern american military, it's worse than any electronic warfare russians can conjure up.

It's probably exaggerated, but the Ruskies do have more advanced electronic warfare systems than us. They've already shown that in Ukraine.

Not this shit again, 27 people quitting at once is classed as a mutiny and would make major news, as it happens every aboard the ship at the time denies it.

Those who make the EW equipment, KRET, claims this story is a hoax.

>They were dismissed in February 2015 as "nothing but a newspaper hoax" by the Khibiny jammer's Russian manufacturer KRET' website, which asserted that Khibiny was not installed on Su-24 but claimed it was "capable of completely neutralising the enemy radar"

I know, that you know, that none of this shit is true.

Two of you are idiots, they are denaying that su-24 used their equipment. If you don't believe don't. Even the US army told how pathetic their defenses are.

You didn't think it was a hoax when the copy pasta claimed a large portion of the crew resigned and no one has ever interviewed a single one of them?

Le not quite.

In the copypasta it claims that The Pentagon made a statement, where is this statement?

Also your links don't state how Russia EW is great than US.

It just states that Russia and China has EW capabilities, like literally everyone else.

"Ukrainian forces have grappled with formidable Russian electronic warfare capabilities that analysts say would prove withering even to the US ground forces. The US Army has also jammed insurgent communications from the air and ground on a limited basis, and it is developing a powerful arsenal of jamming systems, but these are not expected until 2023.

"Our soldiers are doing the training with the Ukrainians and we've learned a lot from the Ukrainians," said Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges. "A third of the [Ukrainian] soldiers have served in the ... combat zone, and no Americans have been under Russian artillery or rocket fire, or significant Russian electronic warfare, jamming or collecting — and these Ukrainians have. It's interesting to hear what they have learned."

Hodges acknowledged that US troops are learning from Ukrainians about Russia's jamming capability, its ranges, types and the ways it has been employed. He has previously described the quality and sophistication of Russian electronic warfare as "eye-watering."

I call bullshit, American destroyers can't be jammed and they're equipped with a laser that can blow up the Kremlin from 3000 miles away.

Who are these analysts?

And bravo Russia, you've got equipment that *can* block your peer.

Literally nothing, embarrassing if anything since you think this is worth shouting about.

I am an American with a physics degree (just acknowledging bias in advance) but I also know that pulse-modulated spread-spectrum carrier waves cannot be defeated with conventional post-Soviet jamming without draining a huge amount of energy. It's unlikely a flying aircraft could power such a jamming transmitter.

you overestimate how much we care about russia

Find the statement. The original copypasta said "the state department released a statement that 27 crew members resigned (you can't "resign" by the way, you can only choose not to reenlist)

The original source for this was some russian blog calling themselves a radio station. somehow the story spread far and wide among russians on the internet.
