The Cuban Bear Trap

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- Vladimir Putin has sent a flotilla of vessels with nuclear missile capability 90 miles off the coast of Florida. Kazan is the Northern Fleet's deadliest attack submarine and this is her first voyage to Cuba. What does this mean for the United States? What impact does this have on US Navy operations in the North Atlantic?

Bots Banned: 21 🤖 I know I've nailed the topic when the bots can't agree on what to criticize in my video. First Bot Wave: I was over reacting. Second Bot Wave: I didn't understand this is a distraction to the submarines behind our ships (at least this one was creative). Third Bot Wave: 'But America does it too...' I'll update the ban count and bot wave topic as they come.
i love that you're doing this aaron, it gives us an estimate for how many bots there actually are.
I take it the bots have been recorded and analysed before being banned. :)
Thanks to see things as they are.
Labeling your small audience as bots only alienates people. People are allowed to have opinions, and you as someone that worked in the industry cause yes its an industry, should be able to explain why you are correct.
@@fightforaglobalfirstamendm5617 lmao shut up bot
I don't know why everyone's got their panties in a bunch. The closest they came to the US was 66 miles off-shore. Completely within the realm of fair, and, free navigation.
For real! These kind of articles make us look terrible on the global front. It's incredibly hypocritical, and also appears as if we are over here scared out of our minds. People need to learn to chill out.
because people today are dumb and dont know history. Ive seen so many comments blaming Biden. "This never would have happened with a republican" Wtf? it has ALWAYS happened.
Because people who like to poke other people with sticks throw a fit when someone else has a stick they're waving around.
The Kinzal canstrike 650 km into America in 3 mins.
Well, we only need 30 seconds from to stop it from the data coming out of Ukraine.
And only Yasen-M is scary... when it is well maintained and crewed. HInt - do you think Yasen-M is well maintained and crewed?
People acting like its a whole carrier battle group
Not naming the official is the point. It gives these media outlets a free pass to print BS.
@@baronvonslambert Here's the thing, they could at least say what position or department this person works in.
@@baronvonslambert considering Biden has officially said its routine for russia to do this and there is no alarm. It's clearly media creating bs and being over dramatic even scaremongering.
@@baronvonslambert i dont agree with this. unnamed sources are so that those people cannot be held responsible if they spread fakenews story's as the western corporate media always does regards to russia. if media had their sources named mandatory you would have had much more honest news, as those people can be held responsible, and the media outlet who has interviewed
@@andyjennings15they can backtrack on that and find out the person
Why is it so hard for yall to understand people want to leak info without putting their jobs in jeopardy?
@@baronvonslambert here's the thing, short of a court order (which would never happen unless there's a suspected crime), no one is going to force a journalist to ever name their "source." Sure, an editor can pressure you but depending on how far you and they are willing to take it, source is likely not to be revealed. So, I can make some s**t up and tell my editor my super secret "source" in the government told me [whatever I feel like saying] and no one will dispute me or is the wiser. Journalistic integrity, just like journalism itself, doesn't exist anymore.
This was blown way out of proportion. And a lot of online sites took advantage of this by calling it the "Cuban Missile Crisis 2.0" for clicks, it's pathetic. Good report on this.
The psychological impact of this should be noted...
Typical loud mouthed senators
It’s the gear you don’t know about that’ll kill you. 😮
I am more worried about Ukraine attacking the Russian ships in Cuba and it being blamed on the US than Russia doing anything stupid like attacking the US with a fleet of support ships.
@@t.r.4496 Ukraine does have global reach let alone in North America where they get most of their support from
Setting up initial infrastructure for such operations seems like pointless waste of money when a gorilla on their side lives there
According to Marine Traffic and the Tampa Bay Times, Warship 75 is USS Donald Cook (DDG 75), and US Gov Vessel 103 is USS Truxtun (DDG-103). USS Delbert D. Black (DDG-119) and USCGC Stone (WMSL-758) are also in in the area.
Thank you for the answer.
I found same information just hour late. lol. : Publicly available ship tracking data earlier today showed the U.S. Navy's Arleigh Burke class destroyers USS Truxtun (DDG-103) and USS Donald Cook (DDG-75), the U.S. Coast Guard's Legend class cutter USCGC Stone (WMSL-758), and the Royal Canadian Navy's Halifax class frigate HMCS Ville de Québec sailing closely behind the Russian Navy's heavy ocean-going tug Nikolai Chiker (also sometimes written Nikolay Chiker) and the Project 23130 replenishment oiler Academic Pashin in international waters to the east of the Florida Keys.
Yeah, the Ville de Quebec has superb sensors. She’ll have been dialing in the Russian subs’ signature, as well the USN ships using a totally different sensor suite.
Oh man, the intelligence bonanza.
well you have HUGE Coast Guard stations in Miami and Puerto Rico that could oppose this "fleet" except the sub on their own
I am extremely surprised Russia would tell the world where its newest tactical submarine is.
I’m 30 I had to explain to my moms who’s 60 how normal and often this happens and it’s just the media spreading lies
THE MESSAGE FOR AMERICA September, 1984 Dimitru Duduman Late one night, I could not sleep, The children were sleeping on the luggage. My wife and daughter were crying, I went outside and walked around. I didn't want them to see me cry. I walked around the building, crying and saying, "God! Why did you punish me? Why did you bring me into this country? I can't understand anybody. If I try to ask anybody anything, all I hear is, "I don't know." I stopped in front of the apartment and sat on a large rock. Suddenly a bright light came toward me. I jumped to my feet because it looked as if a car was coming directly at me, attempting to run me down! I thought the Romanian Secret Police had tracked me to America, and now they were trying to kill me. But it wasn't a car at all. As the light approached, it surrounded me. From the light I heard the same voice that I had heard so many times in prison. He said "Dumitru, why are you so despaired?" I said, "Why did you punish me? Why did you bring me to this country? I have nowhere to lay my head down. I can't understand anybody." He said, "Dumitru, didn't I tell you I am here with you, also? I brought you to this country because this country will burn." I said, 'then why did you bring me here to burn? Why didn't you let me die in my own country? You should have let me die in jail in Romania! He said, "Dumitru, have patience so I can tell you. Get on this." I got on something next to him. I don't know what it was. I also know that I was not asleep. It was not a dream. It was not a vision. I was awake just as I am now. He showed me all of California and said, "This is Sodom and Gomorrah! All of this, in one day it will burn! It's sin has reached the Holy One." Then he took me to Las Vegas. "This is Sodom and Gomorrah. In one day it will burn." Then he showed me the state of New York. "Do you know what this is?" he asked. I said, "No." He said "This is New York. This is Sodom and Gomorrah! In one day it will burn." Then he showed me all of Florida, "This is Florida." he said. "This is Sodom and Gomorrah! In one day it will burn." Then he took me back home to the rock where we had begun. "IN ONE DAY IT WILL BURN! All of this I have shown you" - I said, "How will it burn?" He said, "Remember what I am telling you, because you will go on television, on the radio and in churches. You must yell with a loud voice. Do not be afraid, because I will be with you." I said, "How will I be able to go? Who knows me here in America? I don't know anybody here." He said, "Don't worry yourself. I will go before you. I will do a lot of healing in the American churches and I will open the doors for you. But do not say anything else besides what I tell you. This country will burn!" I said, "What will you do with the church?" He said, "I want to save the church, but the churches have forsaken me." I said, "How did they forsake you?" He said, "The people praise themselves. The honor that the people are supposed to give Jesus Christ, they take upon themselves. In the churches there are divorces. There is adultery in the churches. There are homosexuals in the churches. There is abortion in the churches and all other sins that are possible. Because of all the sin, I have left some of the churches. You must yell in a loud voice that they must put an end to their sinning. They must turn toward the Lord. The Lord never gets tired of forgiving. They must draw close to the Lord, and live a clean life. If they have sinned until now, they must put an end to it, and start a new life as the Bible tells them to live." I said, "How will America burn?" America is the most powerful country in this world. Why did you bring us here to burn? Why didn't you at least let us die where ALL the Dudumans have died?" He said, "Remember this, Dumitru. The Russian spies have discovered where the nuclear warehouses are in America. When the Americans will think that it is peace and safety - from the middle of the country, some of the people will start fighting against the government. The government will be busy with internal problems. Then from the ocean, from Cuba, Nicaragua, Mexico,,.." (He told me two other countries, but I didn't remember what they were.) "...they will bomb the nuclear warehouses. When they explode, America will burn!" "What will you do with the Church of the Lord? How will you save the ones that will turn toward you?" I asked. He said, "Tell them this: how I saved the three young ones from the furnace of fire, and how I saved Daniel in the lions den, is the same way I will save them." The angel of the Lord also told me, "I have blessed this country because of the Jewish people who are in this country. I have seven million Jews in this country, but they do not want to recognize the Lord. They didn't want to thank God for the blessing they received in this country. Israel doesn't want to recognize Jesus Christ. They put their faith in the Jewish people in America. But, when America burns, the Lord will raise China, Japan, and other nations to go against the Russians. They will beat the Russians and push them all the way to the gates of Paris. Over there they will make a treaty, and appoint the Russians as their leaders. They will then unite against Israel. When Israel realizes she does not have the strength of America behind her, she will be frightened. That's when she will turn to the Messiah for deliverance. That's when the Messiah will come. Then, the church will meet Jesus in the air, and he will bring them back with Him to the Mount of Olives. At that time, the battle of Armageddon will be fought." When I heard all of this I said, "if you are truly the angel of the Lord, and everything you have told me is true, then all you have said must be written in the Bible." He said, "Tell everyone to read from Jeremiah 51:8-15, Revelation chapter 18, and Zechariah chapter 14, where Christ fights against those who possess the earth. After His victory," the angel said, "there will be one flock and one Shepherd. There will be no need for light. The Lamb of God will be the Light. There will be no sickness, no tears, and no deaths. There will only be eternal joy and God will be the ruler. There will be only one language. Only one song. And no need for a translator! ... And, Dumitru," he continued, "a word of warning. If you keep anything from the American people that you are told, I will punish you severely." "How will I know that this is for real -that it will really happen?" I asked. "As a sign that I have spoken to you, tomorrow before you wake, I will send someone to bring you a bed, and at noon I will send you a car and a bucket of honey. After which I will send someone to pay your rent." The next day someone brought Dumitru a bed, and at noon a car arrived with the bucket of honey. His rent was also paid, as God had promised him. (See chapter 10, "THROUGH THE FIRE WITHOUT BURNING.") Then the angel left. Excepted from: Dreams and Visions From God
I'm looking at 70 and I remember the fun and games the military vessels played. Like when the John F. Kennedy had a chunk of bow torn off when a Soviet ship got a little too close in the execution of the time-honored tradition of "testing the armor" of an adversary's ship off the coast of Italy. Or when we pinged "much of" the soviet navy - all at the same time.
we are living in a parallel reality created to mantain western regimes and status quo which Impossible to mantain...... all these efforts contributed to give to the rest of the world a very bad impression. now what in past was a dream has become now a nightmare....

That's not what my tattoo artist said.
Finally an analysis that isn't beating a war drum. This is nothing out of the ordinary.
U are looking at this the wrong way. The Usa military 🪖 wasn't the only one that was gathering intelligence, Russia was also gathering intelligence on the US Navy. So they both got what they needed from each other
Is it possible the Russians generated a bunch of noise to hide the real operating sound of the sub?
What useful intel can they truly gain? Learn exactly how outclassed they are. Discover that they don't possess the technology to even understand that they are nearly half a century behind us. They can't even use the anti-missle close in defensive systems because it screws up their radio. We have installed hypersonic detection suites and upgraded and super charged a directional electronic projector that was originally developed as a last chance anti-ordinance weapon. Now it is powerful enough to use against actual ships. Directed energy weapons, refueling drones that extend the CAP beyond the range of the hypersonic menace. America rules the waves. If the USN doesn't want you on the water you will not be on the water.

How ya got kicked out of Vietnam n Afganistan, and Iraq now is practically IRAN. and cant deal with Houthis ?.
@@ulooqulg the conflicts you mention were not actually supposed to be won or even be winnable. And hell Vietnam has a two thousand plus year history of empires occupying them and being bled of treasure, troops, world respect moral and their very world view flayed and the best you can make out is them being rather nice and letting you out of the jungle. The Mongols under Subotai second in ability only to his grandfather the great Khan. France, Great Britain, China, Japan, Korea, USA and a couple more all failed and left in abject shame. Afghanistan even the man the world called the great Alexander thought better of it. The absolute best was the Brits and that wasn't in any way a win, The Soviet Union, currently the Taliban is giving it a go. Just wait until those men in the Kush take notice of the foreigners in their mountains. It won't go good for them either the world's modern militaries are not designed to fight the level of irregular warfare that smaller powers are forced to go use. It is a credit to some of them that in the absence of nuclear weapons they have figured out how to fight the superpowers. Remember that Iran has existed longer than Christianity. While some of my ancestors were still wearing fur and freaking out because thunder, there was Babylon. Walls so wide you could ride five armored Deghans abreast on top. If 70 years ago we had at least aknowledged that in our dealings with those folks the world would be very different. Notice how much different we are towards the Vietnamese. Notice how we have one of our most comprehensive and encompassing economic and defense treaties with that country. Also notice how they don't hate us. Amazing. The world could learn a bit there. Sorry I'm rambling. The goal is not to the waste time,money, effort and lives eradicating the Houthis the goal is comprehensive degradation of their ability to hamper world shipping and trade. Every Nation is in agreement with that goal. North Korea and China even, Russia too. Ok I guess not Iran but they have accomplished their goals for the Iranian regime. So all in all a brutal waste of life. Which the poor and working class folks pay a disproportionately large share of.
@@ulooqulg Those werent naval conflicts, are you even trying?
Great points.
Media, "Is this the beginning of WW3?!?"
Reality, "so long and thanks for all the intel."
i have my towel!!!!
I had to tell a coworker who brought it up, that he really shouldn't be worried. Ooh the huge manatee
The WW3 might have started in 2014 just like WW2 kind of started in 1931 with Japan's invasion of Manchuria.
Except that the war can start at any second, not by a silly mistake, but by a misunderstanding. The fact the public does not understand this reflects very poorly.
@@gdiwolverinemale4th but I didn't expect ww3 will start in America 😢😥😢
I saw the 'Is this Cuban Missile Crisis 2.0' and wooo baby, man... What a dumb question, and there aren't a ton of dumb questions. The news agencies (all of them) must be losing money.
WION is Indian "Re*ch Wing".
Don't forget that the percentage of veterans or even reporters experienced in covering military operations in the media has been going down. Add the fact that a lot of news stories are now designed to grab your attention than really inform. Look at all the stories on the British Royal Family in the last several years. They are mostly just one writer's speculating and then everyone else copies it.
I love when the news says “people are saying” 😂
Yes people are saying is the pinnacle of absurdity.
Their source always seems to be "trust me bro!" Lol

Seriously though
Thank you sub brief for breaking this down and explaining the roles that these ships and subs play.its refreshing that you gave a indepth analysis and explanation of why those ships are in cuba.your right a lot of media channels are reporting this as a 2.0 scenario,it's like they are trying to panic everyone because of there lack of knowledge.your doing a great job as always and I enjoy your expertise 👍
Glad it was helpful!
The Russian Navy gift wrapped a real world ASW exercise for the US Navy. Also, it's likely the Kazan had a chaperone ever since it left port near Murmansk. The USN is not going to throw away an opportunity to build an acoustic profile of that thing.
Yep, somebody went out to profile her and get all the data our systems could squeeze and get the Kazan to squeal to us.
And you think the russians didnt think that the us military would track them?😂😂😂 oh I forgot you are the almighty america and everyone else is stupid😂😂
Believe the bs. As if the Russians are so naive, not to know that and ensure they are the noisest they can be
@@gdiwolverinemale4th they can try, but a screw is a screw, this is a dumb stunt and I'm sure there are Russian Admirals who are (secretly) pissed at Putin for ordering this stupid, futile, gesture.
@@JonathanHStone lol. Do you think that was the first time the US Navy had an encounter with that class of sub? Come on, the entire video is made for the armchair warriors playing computer games
R-135 "Rivet Joint" ran a racetrack pattern off Havana this morning.
I saw that also.
Why didn't we invite them for a Port visit ourselves?
No caviar
Or real vodka 😂😂😂@@phil20_20
They wouldn't be allowed to, in case they defect 😅
Because that is only done when the governments are on good terms.
The US is behind a fig leaf from being in a shooting war with Russia.

Russians would see that Capitalist chaos and political polarization isn't propaganda.

First off, great perspective and analysis. I think you’re right and wrong. Let me explain. Your analysis from a historical perspective and from a naval intelligence perspective is spot on. However, I think you discount the timing of this and the political aspect too much. Given the recent arms and funding to Ukraine, this trip was absolutely timed intentionally for political reasons. Why else would they waste time and resources when they are in the middle of a war? The reason is that politicians are, for the most part, easily manipulated into making bad decisions. They don’t have the academic background in naval doctrine that you and the military has. The senator’s tweet is the response they were looking for. Hook, line, sinker. I totally agree that the intel we got was invaluable, but I just can’t disregard the political side as easily as you. Great video.
Lol they brought a salvage tug...they know their vessles so well...
Aw ... remember what happened to the Brits in the Red Sea a couple of months ago (look it up if you don't) .... . Or the pontoon bridge in Gaza. What competence and technology. Astounding!
What if the tug breaks down? Lol
Better look into the state of the MSC. Also don’t forget that Canada lost an AOR in Hawaii and it stayed there burnt out until they could rent a tug. Having an ocean going tug that can accompany the fleet is actually a statement of capability and readiness.
@@gdiwolverinemale4th The point was, that the Russians seemingly have
so little faith in their own fleet. You just don't see that in other Navys.
they allways do, unlike usa whos pier broke dowm everywhere.
He's a Navy man, not a Political man. I like that.
Getting into a Naval Battle with the United States in the Straight of Florida would be a peak Russian Navy move on the same scale as The Battle of Tsushima.
Russian "fleet" = Future artificial reef.
Do you see torpedo boats? - HIRMS Kamchatka
Ooooh!
It would make the Battle of Tsushima look like a joke.
Yup. Same reason I don't like the idea of us getting into naval battles near Taiwan.
Anti ship missiles exist now.
This is why I dont pay any attention to mainstream media. Appreciate your calm factual evaluation, as always.
Cuban missile circus is back in town:)
Thank you for clearing this up for the uninformed out there. Keep up the great work, my friend.
Blown out of proportion.
1:45 lol I was going to comment the same thing saying it was probably a janitor but you beat me to it lol.
I see you are a man of Culture and Humor. Well done, sir.
There is one another possibility, as China would know the device won't be returning back to China again they may have used non critical components, like non standard secured military radios, optical seniors etc, so once it was shoot down or captured in enemy hands it won't be a compromise on security,
@6:12 I believe that US GOV VESSEL 103 is the USS "Truxton"...a Burke-class guided missile destroyer.
If half of your flotilla is support and repair vessels you know you are in the Russian navy. Freaking brilliant.
I hope you're generals don't have your thought process, cuz we will be in deep sh** as country allied with US.
One of the last times a Russian nuke boat discussed going to Cuba for a summer trip it was sadly lost in the Laurentian Abyss.
🤣 Gotta watch those pesky Lithuanian captains
Dang, Jive, I need to go on more Celebrity cruises! Is that what you're telling me!?
I said the same 😂
Get to eat like a king AND watch some very interesting evolutions lol I'm not to sure about the debrief when you get back home though, I don't need any more black vans in front of my house as it is
No this is the public version, where they show the yasen ssn and a hypersonic frigate. The not so public version that seen by the public is the ssbn sitting in the Atlantic with the slbm.
This. I’m thinking off NY coast. There’s no mention of tracking North Atlantic subs even though you gotta know they’re out there. No way they’re going to do a first strike probe without a multi prong attack.
The US is thinking they are gathering some secret intel because the Russians don't know they are monitoring these vessels. They are finding out nothing Russia does want them to know. Rather it is more likely that Russia is learning much more about US anti-sub hunting technologies.
Send the flotilla commander an invitation to stop in Miami for a week or two. Roll out the 'Red' carpet and show the crews a good time. The best intel you can gather is just by talking to them. A few drinks, a pretty girl interested in them, everyone likes to brag and boast about how strong and capable they are...
We had a Russian missile cruiser in Vancouver a number of years ago. Sister of the Moskva. I am sure lot's on intel was acquired
They'd be lucky to have enough crew left to sail back to Russia after all the defections haha. Prior to the Ukraine war the Navy was considered the worst branch of the Russian military to serve in, obviously things have changed and the Army is now the worst for obvious reasons.
@@mrvwbug4423smfh... damn you swallow toooooooomuch msm propaganda
I generally don’t understand this attitude. The freedom of navigation in international waters applies to everyone, Cuba could invite the entire russian navy if it so pleases. Its a sovereign nation, not „americas backyard“. The US navy itself is sailing off foreign coastlines 24/7 but if someone else does it, all of a sudden it becomes a threat to national security?
Yes. That's how foreign policy works - the ones sitting at the big money table decide what is right.
@@barbaros99Who Cares about usa...
No, no one in the US actually cares. Marco Rubio is a politician pretending to care because: 1, he is a Republican and the President is a Democrat, so he can say they should do something when they intend to do nothing; and 2, he represents Florida, which has a lot of Cuban exiles/immigrants who don't like the Cuban government and want the US to be harsher to Cuba so it will fall. The news media also want to have something to talk about, so it doesn't matter how unimportant it is, they will try and make it sound important because most people don't know otherwise.
Only to politicians. The US Navy was giddy over the opportunity to get a low effort intel bonanza on the latest and greatest of the Russian Navy.
Thank you Mr. Aaron. Love you!
The purpose of the trip is not Cuba. The two crossed the shipping lanes between the US and Europe. Next we add the flight radius of the anti-ship missile system to 800 km. They don't do anything, they just hint.
It will have Zircons by year end, range 1000 km, and also the kalibre has a range of about 4600 km...........Their Oniks is 800, and is high supersonic. These 3 boast technologies, including stealth, ranges, maneuverability and speed that no american missile can remotely match. Our stuff is out of the 1980s and 90s. These two could probably take out 20 top u.s subs and ships, possibly more before getting sunk.
@@bobbymartin5220How you can believe this after the abysmal performance of the Black Sea fleet is mind boggling.
It's so good to hear the voice of experience and reason. It's really sad when politicians are more concerned with making their opposition look bad than with what's best for our nation.
I loved this little brief of someone who knows what the US military would be doing while this is happening. I did read an article today about the sound proofing tiles 'falling off' of the Yasen sub, and wondered what you'd take of that, if its just routine things, or if the Russians aren't maintaining their new subs enough, like the article insisted.
we sail to Havana, where the sun is warm, and so is the...comradeship
You track a submarine in clear water based off the crew's bathroom breaks, follow the doo doo trail.
A US sub just docked in Cuba as well, at Gitmo.
Calling this 'Cuban Missile Crisis 2.0' is like calling the American Civil War a 'slight disagreement regarding internal policy'
Thanks for clarifying this situation. Really trust your analytics!
My pleasure!
US Navy "We have no issue with the Russian Navy sailing to Cuba... it's good practice in tracking"
Senator Marco Rubio 's parents immigrated from Cuba so he is hypersensitive about Russian intensions in Cuba. He is wrong on this though.
Marco Rubio is one of few American politicians that stood with Hong Kong in particular Joshua Wong .
America's leaders need to concentrate availability of platforms rather than giggles about their enemies misfortunes in build quality.
Today's program was indeed another quality one.
This is sort of like a discussion at a meeting at SubVets. The overwhelming response is, "so what?" 😊
I am not surprised. This is just a summer trip to Cuba.
I'm glad this channel exists to calm everyone the heck down the storm in a team cup over this was pointless. They literally had to bring a tug boat in case their tincan ships broke down.
“It’s okay” says the U.S. navy who had 14 aircraft and 6 warships looking for the submarine for a week
Was waiting for your vid on this 🤘🇨🇦
🤙
About the Gorshin frigate: A year later, the deputy CEO for military shipbuilding of the United Shipbuilding Corporation (USC), Vladimir Korolyov, was reported to have told the TASS news agency that design of the ship would in fact be completed in 2023 with the first ship expected to be laid down in 2024. He said that 12 vessels were planned and that they were to carry up to 64 Kalibr, Onyx and Tsirkon cruise missiles along with the Poliment-Redut air defense missile system, with up to 100 missiles. The ships would also be equipped for anti-submarine warfare.[75]
Funny that the cruise ship mixed itself in! Thanks for the report!
in Russia we have a saying "we only won from this" usually applied when the situation isn't really positive but we wanna make it look like we gained from it even though it's not true
Yes you are right, they just came to have fun. The next trip will be 3 times the size of this one., just to have fun , don’t worry.
They can bring all the ships they want, they'll still become an artificial reef within minutes if they actually tried to engage the USN 90mi from Florida.
"Is it a janitor? Is it the President?" Good stuff Aaron.....
And anyway sub launched missiles can be launched from anywhere, no need to be close.
I was in the Navy stationed in Japan .This occurrence happened a lot seeing Russia and Chinese Navy aircraft and submarines. Believe you me when I say no one wants total war with United States.
It was funny that russian navy sailed within about 27 miles of the usa coast of florida. Also the fact that 5 ships, including hmcs quebec and ssn uss helena tracked the group along with canadian aurora and usa p3 and p8 and reportedly had trouble tracking the yasen.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t find Humpty together again.
"one ping please"
There's nothing to this. They go down there from time to time, it's not a big deal.
No, ABURD, MY FIRST DECEASED HUSBAND WAS IN THE CUBAN CRISIS WHILE SERVING IN 81ST TRANSPORTATION ARMY. I WAS A VERY YOUNG TEENAGE ARMY WIFE, U ALL SO FULL OF SH*T. RUSSIAN ARE VERY NICE PEOPLE, MY FRENCH UNCLE WAS LIBERATED BY THE SOVIET ARMY, NICE GUYS, THEY GAVE FOOD, TEA, CLOTHES, STOP THE RUSSIA PHOBIA, STUPID MEDIA, THAT WHY I DONT WHAT STUPID NEWS NOR HAVE CABLE. OPEN CUBA, GOOD FOR BUSINESS.
Thank you for bringing us the factual truth in a rational manner. I've sent this to several people who were freaking out over the news coverage.
Thank you, sharing my videos is the #1 to support my channel. Lord knows the Algorithm doesn't. lol
Thanks for a very interesting and corrective perspective. I got two things from this:
1. If it's not an immediate threat let's take the opportunity of exploiting it to the max as an intelligence gathering opportunity.
2. Russia and the US actually agree on the big strategic issue of freedom of navigation on the high seas. (Notable countries that apparently don't at the moment are China and Yemen.)
12: 40 So you are saying that the US has gathered so much intel on the Russians and Chinese, but they didn't do the same to the US assets ? It seems like it's a two way street to me.
Clearly no Intel is gathered from US freedom of navigation manoeuvres in the Black Sea or South China Sea. Totally.
That part of the ocean has so many Sosa Hydrophones scattered all over the seabed we don’t need to get close enough to the Russian ships to be “profiled”. We stand back and just use it as a “tracking exercise “ and let the hydrophones record everything. That’s the safe way to update our data.
They are decades behind America technically. Our systems from the eighties are easily neutralizing the supposed best that Russia fields. 1st generation patriot missiles intercepting the jyndal and that other super scary hypersonic missile. But remember you really should never try and call someone who is potentially not bluffing with nukes.
I still don't understand why Russia is our enemy since the Soviet Union has collapsed.
U.S. Navy wants underwater acoustic data on Russian submarine and the Canadian Navy is using their Cuba pass to assist them with the recording of said submarine sound signature, this is my theory but i think it's a solid and plausible one...
florida man here: wee don't claim marco rubio, he's a dingus.
I was having anxiety about this thank you for doing this this video helped to ease my mind so thankful people like you are out there doing this MUCH RESPECT
the US Military thanks you for your service and for the acoustic data of your submarine.
The US should invite these ships and crews for a port visit at one of our navy bases in Florida
Good video, thanks Jive!
You bet
The Cuban missile slight inconvenience of 2024! It sure was nice of them to give us a demonstration of their missile capabilities, I’m sure that’s extremely helpful
About as scary to US population as when Russia sent a few warships off the coast of Australia in 2014, i bet. After our then PM rightfully cracked a tantrum at Putin for killing 37 Australians when Russia's military shot down MH17 over Ukraine.
No one in Australia noticed let alone got scared about Russia's warships.
The RAAF/RAN likely could of sunk every single ship they sent without losing any assets and Russia wouldn't have been able to retaliate (They have no friendly airbases in Oceania or SE Asia where they would be allowed to retaliate from).
Love these current events Naval briefs! So glad I subscribed - Thanks for keeping up with stuff & sharing it so professionally!
Awesome, thank you!
Every NAFO Blogger: "!!!! DONT PANIC!!!! NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT!!!! DONT PANIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Senator needs charged with spreading misinformation and inducing panic. Then put him in prison and remove him from office.
The KAZAN is being readied and in final testing to receive the hypersonic Zircon, the most deadly ship launched missile on earth, followed by the high supersonic Oniks, (2nd most effective ship launched missile) which was actually a joint project with india (their version is the Brahmos). The zircon has a range of 1000 km, the Oniks 800 km, and some versions of the Kalibre are from 3000 km to as high as 4600 km.. These are all highly accurate and unstoppable by any U.S. ship and sub, with their old fashioned american weapons.
No federal government employee, contractor, or unelected official should be allowed to push any information to the public (including to a reporter), except at the invitation and in the presence of an elected official. The buck stops with elected officials.
"Launch the Ready Alert!" ~ Commodore, Patrol and Reconnaissance Wing 11. Lol. Lucky Ducks those VP-8 Tigers, they had the Ready that week. CERTSUB! I was an acoustic AW at NAS Jax for 8 years. Got launched a few times in the 80s/90s. Fun times.
30 rounds / minute of 130mm! Holy moly.
I like how they made a bee line for Norfolk and then were like yeah let’s go to Cuba instead.
Thank you!! Yippie! A voice of reason and experience. I knew there was a reason I picked your channel up following the Titan implosion last year. I know nothing of coastlines, shipping, military and the like... but I cannot get enough of history and the boots on the ground know how.... Thanks
You know more about this stuff than I do, but I mean, don't you think they've already got all that information on the sub and the ship, seeing as how they have to go through basically NATO Waters
I think we know more today than we did a week ago.
Can you say "It's the tail wagging the dog"?!?
Sane American?
Well informed ?
INCREDIBLE !!
Thank you
I'm one of a kind.
VP-8 and VP-10 are having fun. BTW, we used to park off the coast of Petropavlovsk every summer and fall for decades.
It would be interesting if the tug and, or the oiler broke down. Also, why wouldn't the sub just make lots of noise via transducers and/or fake emissions?
Mega Content, thank you for that, very interesting, and topical!
Their Navy is like a used car parade with all the service vehicles following behind. Didn’t see the Moskva…..oh sait. It’s a reef now. 😂
Or the Kirov, oh wait, it's sitting in port getting repaired yet again haha. The Kuznetsov is in even worse shape haha
Agreed. Love your content in general, and in particular, your more considered opinion on the Cuban visit. Had a giggle about how timely the visit was from a Yasen, considering your sub brief on the class. Keep up the good work and look forward to more rants about the US navy and their little crappy ship...
Best from South Africa.
The only real problem here is Russian navy ships can travel from Murmansk to Cuba without a machinery breakdown.
Putler's mates probably went there to ask Cuba for some warships, given that a fair part of the Black Sea fleet has been sunk.
"Please, El Presidente - can we have some ships?"
I like how everyone is panicking about it being a missile sub. As if the russians weren't within range weeks ago. Being offshore isn't a necessity
Ironic. You ARE the source. This news hit my feed days ago from multiple random angles. I typed Sub Brief and disregarded as “if it was for real it would be here, or maybe at a stretch Sandboxx” … such is your reputation. Many thanks for the sleep I got then, and this later confirmation of the facts.
Hey Jive, thanks for the clear breakdown of what's going on. I really appreciate the way you never sensationalize things and you just rationally look at the situation.
If we'll use this opportunity to our benefit by gathering intel on the Russian navy, how is it not a similar giveaway to the Chinese when we do these types of freedom of navigation missions near Taiwan?
This is a fantastic question: When we operate near Taiwan or other contested waters, we have procedures and equipment modes designed to protect how we do things. One could argue that Russia is doing that now near Cuba. It has been my experience that the Russian Navy does not practice such methods. They do things by procedure, on schedule, same rudder, same course change for 8 weeks. I watched it happen.
As far as China goes, they are unaware of were our submarines are precisely. This is why they do not track our subs, because they can't.
If China could do to our submarines what our navy is doing to the Kazan, it would be an apt comparison.
I can't imagine the US Navy is at all concerned about the Russian Navy, like at all.
They’re not visiting Cuba, they’re fleeing to Cuba to escape Ukrainian drones.😅
So good of tgem to bring their own tug. It would be a big inconvenience for BoatUS to have to respond to a call for assistance all the way over to Cuba.
Agreed and many occasions where a nuclear sub has been closer to our shores.
5 minutes from launch off Florida to DC for the nuclear tipped Zircon
It is an Arleigh Burke Class destroyer. It was at the Rota Base in Spain a few months ago. From what is known, she does traffic "control" work... Having been stationed in the Mediterranean, I imagine that when the Russian flotilla was detected, they went out to meet him and accompanied him...
