Why This U.S. Navy's Weak and Slow Ship Is the Most Important One in the Fleet?

While aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines often steal the spotlight in discussions of naval power, the Blue Ridge Class Command Ships quietly assume the role of the ultimate orchestrators of maritime operations. Their command and control capabilities, adaptability, and versatility make them Important assets in today's Naval operations.

I was stationed onboard the Blue Ridge from June 2006 until July 2009. I loved my time on that ship. We went to numerous ports multiple times including Shanghai and Vladivostok but those places only once. We rarely went out to sea.

We need more ships china kicking our ass in this sector

[@TheRaginCajun6]

@@ramenlover1727 ask Japan how that worked out

[@victoriam.b.4786]

amazing! thank you U.S. Navy. God speed.

[@richjoyal]

Those command ships are unlikely to put into risky missions. Probably are the best office jobs you can find in the country. Great ocean view every day anyway

[@jimbojones101]

Does it have DEW weaponry like those three that were off the coast of, Maui, during the 'wild fires'?

[@heru-deshet359]

They're probably loaded with hidden laser cannons.

I am a Navy veteran from the mid '70's and I have a problem with this channel giving out information that could possibly furnish our enemies like China and Russia information that could hurt our ability to stop their attacks on our military and our country.

[@edkrach8891]

Agreed. This is a major FUBAR that should be corrected now.

5:19 That's bizarre. Why would they wear masks outdoors in a well ventilated area?

[@oakleave]

Change your title, weak and slow does not do well with US navy.
Try stealthy, steady, and ready.
