i dont think russia would try to start a war like this

also how the fuck did they get it all the way to connecticut lol

The ruskie ship is sailing at the naval equivalent of school zone speed well beyond sigint range

@Lord Efo once again, very likely just an error of some sorts

like if it was off the coast of oregon i would almost believe it

It's litteraly a classified spy ship

It's literally HELLO COMRADE AMERICANS REMEMBER WE OWN SHIPS YES HOW ARE YOU WE JUST TESTING NEW PRESIDENT RESPONSE

And it is 30 miles off coast.

70

They said 30\

Who

Chnnale 7

Last i saw was 70

Coast Guard

Well its in more

Kek

Yeah, they're testing trumps response

He's just shurgging

Maybe. But it was en route before Trump's inauguration

This is how the us and ru shake hands with new presidents

its around 5000 miles if they do it from northern russia through canada

canada would most likely have noticed

"We've been in touch with the Navy early this morning," U.S. Rep. Joe Courtney, D-2nd District, told The Courant. "They are watching it like a hawk. At this point there's not a violation of international waters. Unless that happens you aren't going to see any aggressive push-back, but it's something that has us on high alert."

9000 miles through the panama canal

It probably went though the GIUK gap, across the Atlantic towards CT

High alert meaning not playing xbox in barracks

these are nautical miles

oops

6000 miles through canada

Usually we just violate each other's airspace

Two retired U.S. Naval submarine commanders downplayed the significance of the Russian presence, saying the ship presents little threat to U.S. security. Such Russian intelligence ships routinely patrol areas outside U.S. naval bases and track U.S. and allied forces' naval exercises.

The U.S. Coast Guard said it is tracking the ship's course, but would not disclose the location.

its around 4500 if they do it around greenland

thats probably what they did

"The U.S. Coast Guard is aware of a Russian Federation-flagged vessel transiting international waters off the East coast of the United States, as we are of all vessels approaching the U.S. The ship has not entered U.S. territorial waters, which extend 12 miles out to sea," the Coast Guard said in a statement.

if they did it

Anyone remember when we saved a Russian sub from arctic ice

The ship began the trip north along the coast from Havana, where it was photographed and is expected to return.

The ship is the "Victor Leonov" a Russian intelligence ship.

Wonder if it's a shakedown run

denmark would have noticed as well

New systems test

idk how they could possibly do that

Slav magic

the ship goes 18 mph

I'm certain it can go much faster

it wouldve taken 10 days full speed for that thing to cross fucking greenland's territory to get here

Fuck, our capitals push 35 knots

not to mention go around greenland

Because it is international waters. Denmark wouldn't likely inform the US immediately. Also that Denmark isn't actively patrolling international waters nor does it have the capable technology that the US has to detect ships at far range.

11 days

Not even Iceland would have noticed. Maybe the UK but again it is reported that it came from Havana

what did?

the ship?

Egp we don't know its max speed

The ship.

i just googled it

the ships models max speed is 16 knots

Please don't tell me you think wiki naval stats are reliable

^

i mean

It's Russia they aren't telling the world their full naval capabilities

seems accurate for a 1988 ship

Lolwhut

Ww2 cruisers were twice as quick

^

There was even a ww1 ship that pushed 30 iirc

"I wouldn't make a mountain out of a mole hill," Candler said. "It's a ship, but it's not the Great White fleet. And it is not uncommon for all kinds of ships from all kinds of places to be all over the world. A military ship up here all by itself is kind of unusual. But these kinds of ships — and we do the same thing — go all over the place to stay reasonably accustomed to the waters."

nvm

yeah i just checked american ships

Yeah , wiki lies

The 300-foot, SSV-175 Viktor Leonov, is packed with electronic gear to monitor sonar and communications. It is armed with defense weaponry. For years, it has been patrolling near East Coast U.S. Naval installations and was spotted two years ago near the Navy's Trident ballistic missile submarine base in Kings Bay, GA.

This is why Denmark didn't report it. It's already been here.

I can tell you the cruise and test depth of the ohio is more than double what wiki states

the uss constitution goes slightly slower lmao

Keeek

the fucking

oldest ship

To be fair the uss constitution is a fast cutter and not a ship of the line

"I had an officer from the base here this morning. We were talking about it," said Quaratella, who said he's been cutting sailor's hair for 50 year. "(The Russians) claim they're just trying to get signals. They're out stealing everything. They're doing this now because we have a new president. They're pushing him."

to be fair our 1970 ships go faster

why are ships female

If Russia really wanted free sigint they'd coax lock ons

did they just assume the ship's gender

i think msm is trying to villify russia in anyy way possible

One of the reasons i kek when China locks our boats

Free intel

like honestly

"they hacked the election"

in some way we have no idea how

or what they did

or if they did anything

but some people have ties to russia

They're female because you have anywhere from a dozen to thousands of seamen inside them at any point

so they hacked the election

FUCKING WHORES

Juuuuuust like any female in the navy

Edgyyyyy

I do not understand the Roman faggit weapon
