War Games: Russia Launches Drills Amid NATO Exercises In the Baltic Sea

Nastoichiviy destroyer , the flagship of the Baltic Fleet

Nato has launched the BALTOPS 22 naval drills in the Baltic Sea, which involve Prospective Nato members Sweden and Finland. In total, the exercises involve about 7,000 troops, 75 aircraft and 45 warships and put Nato’s amphibious operations, anti-submarine capabilities, air defences and mine clearance to the test over 10 scheduled days of war games. LINK

According to the statements by NATO officials, the annual drills are not being held specifically to counter the Russian threat, but in order to strengthen the NATO eastern flank and potentially admit two new members who face Russia across the Baltic.

Russia did not keep silent and launched military exercises on June 5. The exercises of the Baltic Fleet on various support activity will last several days. In total, more than 2 thousand military personnel and civilian specialists take part in the exercises, about 200 units of military and special equipment are involved. In total, there are more than 20 warships and boats in the sea ranges of the Baltic Fleet, performing combat training tasks within the ongoing exercises.

On June 7, several shipboard search and strike groups of the Baltic Fleet have begun a planned exercise to search for and destroy an alleged enemy submarine. The combat training involved the patrol ship “Yaroslav Mudry”, the corvettes “Stoyky” and “Savvy”, small anti-submarine ships “Urengoy”, “Kazanets”, “Aleksin”, “Kabardino-Balkaria”. They will interact with the crews of IL-38 anti-submarine aircraft. After working out anti-submarine tasks, the sailors of the BF will perform artillery firing on air and sea targets, exercises for setting electronic interference, conduct in-ship training on radiation, chemical and biological protection and the fight for the survivability of the ship.

The NATO and Russian exercises are for the most part an escalation of tensions in the region. The NATO countries are demonstratively announcing their commitment to include Sweden and Finland in the alliance, a broad political movement. On the other hand, Moscow is also trying to dictate a position of strength and prevent demonstrative exercises near its borders.

Russians don’t need ships to destroy American ships!!

Russians don’t need ships to destroy American ships!!

How Russian electronic warfare scared an American destroyer Anton Valagin, Igor Filonov The US State Department admitted that the crew of the American destroyer “Donald Cook” was demoralized after meeting with the Russian Su-24 bomber, which did not have bombs and missiles on board. We learned why this happened and what else Russia has inspiring. Electronic warfare equipment

On April 10, the American destroyer “Donald Cook” entered the Black Sea. On April 12, a Russian Su-24 bomber overflew the destroyer. On April 14, after an ordinary, in general, incident – our planes do not very regularly approach the ships of a potential enemy in neutral waters – the Pentagon made an extremely emotional statement, accusing Russia of violating its own traditions and international treaties. It was mentioned that the crew of the “Donald Cook” was demoralized after the meeting with the bomber, a number of media reported that 27 American sailors had written reports about their dismissal from the fleet. What scared the crew of the destroyer so much?

“Donald Cook” is not a rusty submarine “Zaporozhye” for you, but a fourth-generation destroyer of the US Navy, whose main weapon is guided missiles. This is the most massive post-war ship with a displacement of more than 5,000 tons: 62 have been built since 1988, and 13 more are planned. In the normal and strike versions, the destroyer is equipped with 56 or 96 such missiles, respectively.

The military began testing new means of aerial reconnaissance The 380 people who make up the crew of the ship are well protected. The combat posts of the “Donald Cook” are surrounded by Kevlar – 130 tons of this expensive but durable material goes to each ship. The small superstructure is covered with a material that absorbs radar radiation. Below the waterline, the destroyer is protected by armor made of high-strength magnesium-aluminum alloys. To reduce underwater noise, air is supplied to the edges of the propellers. As a result, a cloud of bubbles is formed, which distorts and smoothes the hydroacoustic “portrait” of the ship.

Finally, the Donald Cook is equipped with the latest Aegis combat information and control system – among other things, it combines the air defense systems of all ships on which it is installed into a common network, allowing you to simultaneously track and fire hundreds of targets. On the edges of the destroyer’s superstructure are four huge universal radar antennas, replacing several conventional radars. Together with “Tomahawks” in universal launchers on the bow and on the stern, fifty anti-aircraft guided missiles of various classes are waiting in the wings.

It would seem that the appearance of such a ship in the Black Sea should cause shock and awe. And so it happened, just not from the other side. The Russian Su-24 front-line bomber that flew to Donald Cook did not have bombs or missiles on board. Under the fuselage hung one container with the Khibiny electronic warfare system. Having approached the destroyer, the Khibiny turned off its radar, combat control circuits, data transmission systems – in short, they turned off the entire Aegis, just like we turn off the TV by pressing a button on the remote control. After that, the Su-24 simulated a missile attack on the blinded and deafened ship. Then another and another – a total of 12 times.

When the bomber had left, the “Donald Cook” hurried to the Romanian port to put her nerves in order. He no longer approached Russian waters. The Americans are accustomed from afar, being in complete safety, to grind with missiles poorly armed detachments of some desert partisans. And if that doesn’t work, they don’t play.

Soldiers of the invisible front

– The more complex the electronic system, the easier it is to disrupt its operation by methods and means of electronic warfare. – said the head of the research center for electronic warfare and evaluating the effectiveness of reducing the visibility of the air force academy Vladimir Balybin. – To win in modern warfare, it is not enough to achieve air supremacy. It is also necessary to ensure information superiority.

In addition to the Khibiny, the domestic military-industrial complex produces many different devices that can discourage both regular enemy units and bandits with terrorists. The Airborne Forces began to receive Infauna complexes. Installed on an armored personnel carrier or other military equipment, the complex finds and jams enemy radio communications in the HF and VHF bands, and “lulls” remotely controlled land mines. They will certainly explode – but after the Russian military column passes over them and retires to a safe distance.

The “Infauna” has one more function – optical sensors placed on the sides of the vehicle detect flashes of shots and give the command to set up a smoke screen that shelters the column from fire. The Judoist information security complex, among other things, finds and neutralizes electronic devices that have connected to data transmission channels without authorization.

The product “Lesochek” performs the same functions as the “Infauna”, but is much more compact – it can be carried in a backpack or suitcase. With such a case, it is convenient to go to important business negotiations – the most advanced security service will not be able to eavesdrop on them. For businessmen, there is a civilian version of “Lesochka” – it can be mounted in the trunk of a Mercedes.

– If in 1995 in Grozny the Lesochek product had worked in the UAZ of General Romanov, the explosion of the car of the commander of the internal troops might not have happened, – Balybin said.

The Borisoglebsk-2 complex forms the basis of the electronic protection of tactical formations of the Russian army. It includes an automated control point and four types of jamming stations – in a single algorithm, they find sources of enemy activity on the air and jam them.

The Zhitel device finds and blocks satellite and cell phones, GPS-navigation subscriber complexes. It proved its effectiveness during the conflict in South Ossetia, disorienting Georgian drones. In Chechnya, the head of the electronic warfare department of the Voronezh Air Force Academy, Vladimir Khrolikov, fought terrorists:

– Throughout the territory we had tracking stations. As soon as there was activity on the air, we made a notch and passed it on to the gunners. Dzhokhar Dudayev, as you know, was destroyed by a missile aimed at the signal of his satellite phone. In Grozny, EW specialists neutralized radio-controlled land mines rolled into asphalt.

The re-equipment of Russia’s strategic nuclear forces with the latest electronic warfare equipment is proceeding at an accelerated pace, said Dmitry Rogozin, Deputy Prime Minister of Russia. If the army and navy as a whole are re-equipped by 70 percent by 2020, then the strategic potential EW will be updated to 100 percent.

– Electronic warfare equipment is what allows our smart weapons to operate, and someone else’s smart weapons to fall asleep. And that’s right, – said the vice-premier.

Instead of sending this rustbucket they should send navy divers to put a bomb on one of the nato ships and then let the weather do the rest just like nato did to the moskva.

Russian Karelian villages and towns and Kalingrad are shit holes compared to clean and healthy Scandinavian, Finnish and Baltic villages and towns.

What kind of a fool you are.

Elgar

You won’t like the fact that 21% of Russians still don’t have indoor toilets.

Daniel

What a terrible thing! On the other hand, Russian children go to school and are safe there not fearing some CIA controlled lunatic to enter school and kill them for the sake of promoting gun control policy, Russians are not hungry, they all have access to medical assistance, they don’t have student loans to repay for another 35 years, they do not have ANTIFAs, Black lives Matter, Southern powerty center, bunch of LGBT morons preaching their dumb ideology, Russians recognize male and female gender of human being as a fact, they do not let scumbags like Soros to preach them about transparency, they can easily obtain every imaginable material existing on earth and pay 75 dollars for a 1000m3 of gas for heating, cooking and industry, women still look like women and not like creatures from some other very strange galaxy, if you whistle when you look a good looking woman you will get a smile in return and not civil litigation or incarceration….so…if I’d have to choose between say US/Canada/Germany where allegedly all people have indoor toilets and Russia….I am opting for Russia.

Nothing has changed since 16th century. Russian military is still lagging far behind western standards. Ukrainan war revealed how all that electronic warfare hypersonic hype was mostly just smoke on air just like Marshall Tuhatshevskys bragging of Red Army artillery superiority.

For being “still lagging far behind western standards” Russians are doing quite well. If NATO are truly way above Russians they would for sure have attacked Russia and destroyed it already. Fact that they haven’t tells a lot.

Patrushev for the President of the Russian Federation. Shoigu to be replaced by Kadyrov. Rogozin as the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Medvedev as the chair of the Security Council (if is he sincere in his hatred of the Collective West). Gerasimov, Dvornik, Zakharova, Nebenzya et al. stay where they are.
