It's been awhile since I was out there "in it" but I would imagine that long before that spyplane got even close it was being painted with the weapons targeting radar in the passive mode. Firing solutions were already made so going "hot" only takes the flip of a switch.
I'm an old school Electronic Warfare Technician. WLR-1 old school. If the spy plane was radiating the SLQ-32 would give the ship a few minutes heads up before the plane appears on radar. The Snoopy detail was always fun......
I remember watching the P3 Orions take off from Moffett Field in the early 70s when I worked at the Lockheed location next to Moffett. It eas really interesting to see the U2s take off as well! As soon as they were airborn they went almost vertical to gain altitude quickly. Awesome!
as a navy veteran who was stationed on 2 aircraft carriers I can say that a Russian or any other countries aircraft would have at least 2 aircraft escorting them before they got close and ready for the unthinkable
In my time in the Navy. 197@-1981. We had Russian Bear Aircraft fly near and over us all the time. We always sent fighter aircraft to escort them from beyond us. I worked Flight deck on H-3 helicopter and S-3 on USS Midway and USS Saratoga. We always had Russian boat trail us all the time in the Indian Ocean.

Nice description of what happen…I being on this situations many times. I spend 20 years in the Navy all in aircraft carrier, and let me tell you ..

Alert clear flight deck and lunch the alert 5… yes… those 2 alert 5 are planes in a Cat position with crew seat ready to go… and our celebration was interrupted because some of those Russian planes decided to fly too close.. they probably were looking as they flyby ( because they do, I seen at least one that flow over the carrier but escorted by out fighter..

I heard a story about either an Airforce or Navy pilot who went to intercept a Bear Bomber one time. This pilot got close to the Russian aircraft to escort them out away from the airspace. Suddenly, the Russian pilot called to the American pilot on the radio. They carried on a conversation for over a 1/2 hour as the American pilot escorted the Russian aircraft out of American airspace. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Not unheard of. There's a "team mentality" between the two countries, but as individuals, we all understand the "other guy" just wants to do their time and go home to their wife and children just like all the rest of us.
I'm English, so have no bias either way, but the truth and the facts are all that matter. Why do so many Americans, claim the Russian SU-57, is nothing but junk, that relies on washing machine chip technology, with the RCS (radar cross-section) of a Jumbo Jet? While the truth is, they've no idea what the RCS of any military aircraft, is, as they're always kept classified, so, really, what is that all about? But even more stupidly, they never ask any of the obvious questions, either, (as they all always just assume so much). Questions like, how can the F-22, or F-35's detect, track, and target enemy stealth aircraft, from BVR (beyond visual range)? Yet if they had just asked that one, really obvious question, then maybe, they'd start to understand that today's reality is nothing at all like they think! Seemingly the Americans don't even understand, that stealth alone, defeats high-frequency (short wave), radar, by absorption and deflection, but it does not defeat low-frequency (long wave radar). Therefore, to detect, track, and target enemy stealth aircraft from BVR, can be done with long-wave radar, (but it must also be enhanced), to remove all background clutter for targeting purposes. So regardless of the aircraft's RCS (we read the Americans believing means so much), when they're being detected, tracked and targetted by long wave radar, they're far from stealthy, and they just light up, and they stand out like a beacon in the night. It also seems, that these Americans we always read talking their juvenile understanding of these military aircraft that they don't even know, that, neither the APG-77 radar in the F-22, or the APG-81 radar in the F-35, have any kind of long wave radar, (hence, they can't detect any enemy stealth aircraft from BVR). So, just think about that, and what it actually means? This is also a fact, the US air force will be fully aware of, only it seems the reality is, when the F-35 radars were being designed 13 years ago, there were no other stealth aircraft to think about as a potential threat! So, obviously, we must ask, just what do the F-22 or the F-35, actually have available to them, to detect enemy stealth aircraft from BVR? They have AWACS, (that can transfer all targetting data to the F-22 - F-35's in real time). Only, that's not possible today. And this is why actually understanding any potential adversaries real abilities, becomes extremely important, critical in fact. As, on the other hand, we find this Russian SU-57 rubbish (the Americans all claim), is equipped with a 5th generation radar, (with enhanced long-wave radar), their new Byelka (2band) radar used in SU-57. They can detect, track, and target enemy stealth jets from BVR, and very easily today. Russia has designed, and developed, the first L-Band fighter radar we've ever seen. They've embedded L-band AESA radars into the leading edges of the wings. The L-band AESA radar "data" gets processed in real time (through extremely powerful Russian computers), being significantly enhanced, removing all background clutter, seeing them perfectly able to detect, track, and engage enemy stealth aircraft from BVR. This new Russian radar technology, along with its very impressive range parameters, and it's jamming ability (over very large areas) make this aircraft deadly to all other aircraft types. (But according to the Americans), it's just Russian rubbish, right?. They can also detect, track, and target enemy stealth fighters, long before they enter Russian airspace, (from much greater distances today), with "real-time" data from all those massive Russian ground (long wave stations), that are all protected with the networked S-400 defensive system. Russia's new (2band) radar, covers all frequencies across all channels, used for tracking, targeting, and also for jamming (over large areas). It's part of Sh121 multifunctional integrated radio electronic system (MIRES) on board the SU-57. We should also understand, that Russia tested this new radar suit in the SU-35's, so they also have the option of fitting this radar into the SU-35's. Seeing the SU-35 at no disadvantage against either the F-22/35. As although the SU-35 can be detected, tracked, targeted and shot down from BVR by the US stealth fighters, the SU-35 equipped with this new radar is just as able to detect, track, target and shoot down the US stealth fighters from BVR. Seeing the all-important, huge Russian advantage, in BVR missile range, plus the excellent manoeuvring, neither the F-22/F-35 have, as more than critical, (if you're going to avoid simply being blown out of the sky). The truth is, this new Russian 5th generation radar, design, has very clear potentials, to provide genuine shared multifunction apertures, with applications including... Search, track, and destroy, missile mid-course guidance, against low signature aircraft, identification of friend or foe with secondary surveillance radar. Passive angle tracking and geolocation of JTIDS-MIDS-Link-16 emitters at long ranges. Passive angle tracking and geolocation of L-band AEWC - AWACS and surface based search radars at long ranges. Passive angle tracking and geolocation of hostile (i.e. Western) IFF and SSR transponders at long ranges. High-powered active jamming of JTIDS-MIDS-Link-16 emitters. High-powered active jamming of satellite navigation receivers over large areas. High-powered active jamming of L-band AEWC-AWACS and surface based search radars at long ranges. High-powered active jamming of guided munition command data links over large areas. [Effectively, and completely, neutralizing the USA's use of AWACS for their detection]. The Tikhomirov NIIP L-band AESA radar, is an extremely important strategic development, and it's a technology which once fully matured and deployed in useful numbers, will render narrowband stealth designs like the F-22 & F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, and many, UAVs, as highly vulnerable to all flanker variants equipped with such radars. But, wait, It's just Russian crap? Also, just what have the Americans ever seen the F-22 do? Well, other than flying over a beach, on a UA-cam video? Absolutely nothing! So what is that all about?
And BTW we have Russian aircraft approaching us every day, there is nothing we or anyone else can do about it, and we did it all by ourselves, by stupidly flying our aircraft toward Russia, and after we agreed to do that no more! So our own fault. Well actually, it's your fault, as all this country does is what you order it to do, and that's soon going to change, thank God.
You people are the problem against the whole world today, yet we read you all sat in these comments with seemingly no idea about any of this and NO IDEA, of this backlash happening across all Europe today, against all of you. You only have support of our governments, none of the people, and every pro US government in Europe are being taken down one country at a time, even here in the UK our Washington puppet government has zero chance of reelection.
Brings back lots of memories. Different times 70’s through 80s Russian bears Tu-95s flew at us all the time. We would always know they were coming. I’m talking in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Well before that young radar operator knew they were coming. At a certain point they were intercepted by a couple of fighters. F4s on my first time. They would get close enough to see the pilot from the flight deck. Never over. As they approached say from the port side hundreds of well wishers would line up and moon them. The tu95 would pass circle back and come down the starboard side. All would run across the flight deck and repeat. I I’ve been out 30 plus years now so I doubt if that happens any more. Cold War games!! Different times. Way different times. Former CTO2 USN
I was a flight engineer on a P3B and later on a P3C from 75 to 81 out of Brunswick ME. When we deployed we were for the most part shadowed by the TU-95 bears on occasion we would loose them by flying very low altering our course and flying without any lights or equipment giving away our location. When we encountered Russian ships we had a free fall shoot that we could drop items out the aircraft. On occasion we would take hustler or penthouse type reading materials put them in a weighted plastic bag and practice dropping them on the ships when we flew over them. They didn’t seam to mind us flying directly over them. In fact they always smiled and waved at us. On occasion they would shoot flairs or light us up with very bright flood lights and we would return the favor. Those were the days I’ve visited 21 counties in my 6 years flying and my flight hours are just over 2,700 hour as a flight engineer. When I was with VP-11 in December 1979 we lost an aircrew (13 of my best friends)they flew into a mountain in the Canary Islands. While tracking a Russian sub. At the time weather was zero visibility we were flying a small contingency of 3 birds out of Lajes in the Azores these were the days before GPS all navigation was done with time and distance charts the mountain they hit was around 6000ft and we were told they impacted the mountain at 5300 ft saddest of times and the reason I didn’t stay in the navy and go on as an officer and finally a pilot. Freedom is not free god rest there souls AMS-1 Bailey.
Use to be a jet mech and worked on A LOT of F-4’s while stationed in Guam. Good ole P&W j-79’s. If my memory serves me correct, same engine as on the B-52’s and even the f-111. Loved the f-4
In the 1960s 1970s Britain was the unsinkable aircraft Carrier. Every week Russia would send over another "Bear" to test the defenses. Britain would detect the Bear and send up an interceptor. The top interceptor of the Period was the Lightning. This is a Mach 2 interceptor that could go supersonic in a vertical climb I've seen them do it. I had a long chat about this over a beer with "Wattie" a Lightning pilot, now dead. They would find the Bear, line him up and do a close Mach 2 pass on afterburner. The shockwave would rattle every screen, topple instruments, smash valves and pop rivets. When the Bear finally got a compass back up and working they always went home. Now are you telling me the US Navy can't handle this? I don't believe you.
I remember hearing a story about an aircraft carrier that had a medieval reenactment group on it of which the Captain was a member. They saw Russians incoming and he called mandatory fighter practice on the flight deck. I’ve always loved that story. In case you’re wondering, it was a Society for Creative Anachronism group.
Brilliant. I bet the Soviet/Russian pilots were laughing their heads off and had a hard time getting anyone to believe them if they didn’t photograph or film it. Great story, thank you.
Sure... In Hollywood propaganda movies... Not in the real world... Yanks are too brainwashed to understand that... Well... You have a 'Woman of the Year' in your ranks after all... 😂
In the 70's U.S. Navy ships were routinely overflown and have been ever since. I was on a carrier once that was overflown by a "Bear-Delta." This was shortly after the end of Vietnam conflict and seemed rather routine!
On the USS ENTERPRISE in 78 there Bear was allowed 5 miles from ship. At high altitude 5 miles is squat . We're defending freedom and their not. Let them swim
@@zenon7094imagine the Americans having lost to goat herders wearing sandals riding donkeys and armed only with a rifle in Afghanistan 😅 They didn’t even have boots, helmets, drones, tanks, artillery, navy or airforce. It took two decades to replace one group of terrorists with the same group of terrorists 😂
Besides what zenon... speaks of, your confusing Battle Groups with FLEETS. To see an actual fleet all within the same area is talking a "D Day" scenario. As far as BG to BG, there is no argument, because there at this time is no comparison whatsoever. Russia or even the USSR has never had a Carrier Group b/c they have never owned a Carrier as referenced here. Japan, sure. Russia, N - E - V -E - R, ever.
@@artimustrieste1480 Both Russia and USSR have different military doctrine which is not focused on fleets, since its not locked by the water as the US. USSR had 5 or 6 aircraft carriers. Russia possesses 1. @zenon7094 Ukraine destroyed several patrol vessels in the Black Sea. What fleet are you talking about? The majority of vessels including large fleet of nuclear subs is located in the northern region, Baltic and Pacific region.
This happened throughout the cold war. Sometimes ships collide leaving dents. A lot of noise sometimes in the news for few days. Nothing really happened. Bothsides knew not to let things get out of hand.
I think the answer is both areas need to be patrolled so of course there is a bit of Sabre rattling which increases the possibility of something happening in the way of escalation but that’s the nature of the business.
Well put. I just find the opportunities for mis-interpretations these intentional close encounters present to be unjustifiable on BOTH sides. One screw-up and we could be looking at a nuclear exchange. As the world situation intensifies, it's not wise, no, not one bit..
The US Navy, just like the US Army, is a decade behind the curve about modern warfare. Just like a tank, any ship or carrier is a "sitting duck" to any suicidal weapon, of sufficient size. We designed tanks and apc's and these are easily destroyed by 2kg and 6kg rounds in certain places. Any aircraft carrier has three obvious weaknesses, with the obvious one at the base of the control tower. Any severance of the communications to the rest of the ship, renders it unable to sense or see strategic incoming weapons. The crew can still run the ship, via portable radios and cellphones, just like similar examples in WW2, but that process has not been trained for, not thought out, and probably impossible for a modern crew to be able to perform safely, without causing more damage. Once the carrier is blind, all the other processes become difficult, if not impossible. If other ships cluster around to protect it, they become a dense-pack of targets, worthy of another suicidal strike. Terrorists and Russians and Others have already used these tactics at many global places. An Assault-Breaker type of missile can launch 30+drones, which if emplaces on the deck of an active carrier, would essentially enflame the entire stored aircraft area of the deck, eliminate the deck crew, and probably cause random explosions of mounted weapons. This technology is already being investigated for real, and seen in gaming videos. Ukrainians are using duct-taped weapons on drones, to take hard-armor vehicles, including M1s, M2s, LAVs, Strykers, etc, etc. Wait until the Navy learns about underwater drones. They will be shocked, just shocked, Just like in the movie, to learn that there are unobservable things loosely floating beneath them.
I went on some patrols in a P-3 50 years ago and we flew around USSR ships some. Our cameras would be running and their guns would track us. Some of the guys on the deck would wave. We used to kid around saying it wouldn’t be a good time to open the bomb bay.
When we were rigging the Soviets, it was common to have guns tracking us, and them shooting flares "in our general direction". Oranges from box lunches could mysteriously fall from free fall chutes during on-top shots. We never did figure out how that occurred.
@@jimtownsend7899 We came across two Soviet subs tied to a tender while transiting the Med. We descended rapidly and dropped a flare on the bubbles of one of the subs getting underway. The tender lowered a lifeboat and went to retrieve the flare. It was fun to watch.
The Russians are just like the United States. They have the same wants and needs. There must be mutual respect between the two nations to avoid conflict.
I disagree. When don't stop pushing line. It takes a plane being shot down. Your living in fantasy world in your mind that doesn't exist. That's like letting bully keep doing it. No u don't let it continue.
@navyproductions I am, what you would call, a Jarhead but even I will say, after watching this video, Go Navy!!! The way I was taught in Boot back in the early '80's, the Navy is part of the Corps anyway! LOL
Ha! No military jets for me. I love my bi-planes! However, I'll throw a nickel on the ground for all of you MARVELOUS and BRAVE military pilots! I still believe the saying about "their are old pilots and bold pilots, but no old bold old pilots". Respect to all of you!
This incident happened at the International water, both site must exercise mutual respect and not to cause any harm to each other, and restrain any use of force!
Back in the 80s, we (B52G) occasionally were shadowed by Soviet interceptors. On one such occasion it was a pair of MiG23s. Our copilot, in a gesture of humor, held a centerfold up against the window. The Flogger rolled over and flew next to us inverted. We didn't understand until the copilot realized he had the centerfold upside down. I'm pretty sure the Soviet pilot was too far away to make out any details, but he knew what it was and was probably laughing as we parted ways. It just goes to show that politics aside, we were pretty much cut from the same cloth.
The most ridiculous oxymoron is MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. I condemn all countries. But the saddest life form is the so-called human being who is always fighting to be top alpha with the biggest You-Know-What. Such bull! It is amazing that there still is life on the planet. People need to abandon military might and religious differences and work together for the good of all that lives upon this beautiful planet.
This has been and will continue be a constant activity for many years. USS Coral Sea, CV-43. The Russian Bear (TU-95) came to visit us during the mid 70's. They would have several F-4's ready to go at any time.
When I was on the Constellation (Vietnam era) we had occasional visits by the Russian "Bear." We weren't terribly concerned and we knew they were coming. We used to stand out on the flight deck, wave at them and they waved back.
If the Russian intelligence gathering is so great perhaps one day they will get to realise the full might and power of the US fleet (and others in NATO) and to attack it wouldn't be a wise move under any circumstances.Deterrence is the name of the game...

Why weren't the alert aircraft launched? Why didn't radar pick the Russians? Why were they able to get THAT close to the carrier? Isn't there a Doctrine that states that at X miles away, launch alert aircraft? This is NOT the Navy I spent 34 years in
If we survive this stage of our collective infancy; 50,000+ years from now future generations will poke holes at our current stupidity. If, we survive ourselves!
How many types of jets are shown in the stock footage? I get that there is no actual footage of this encounter, but can we not change the American jet or the Russian spy plane with every cut?

The Russians never got within 100 miles of the carrier back in the 70s without an ESCORT!! JJ USS America & USS IKE!
What a good report and piece is all ways the first thing thanks.
I heard a story about either an Airforce or Navy pilot who went to intercept a Bear Bomber one time. This pilot got close to the Russian aircraft to escort them out away from the airspace. Suddenly, the Russian pilot called to the American pilot on the radio. They carried on a conversation for over a 1/2 hour as the American pilot escorted the Russian aircraft out of American airspace. 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Not unheard of. There's a "team mentality" between the two countries, but as individuals, we all understand the "other guy" just wants to do their time and go home to their wife and children just like all the rest of us.
I'm English, so have no bias either way, but the truth and the facts are all that matter.
Why do so many Americans, claim the Russian SU-57, is nothing but junk, that relies on washing machine chip technology, with the RCS (radar cross-section) of a Jumbo Jet?
While the truth is, they've no idea what the RCS of any military aircraft, is, as they're always kept classified, so, really, what is that all about? But even more stupidly, they never ask any of the obvious questions, either, (as they all always just assume so much).
Questions like, how can the F-22, or F-35's detect, track, and target enemy stealth aircraft, from BVR (beyond visual range)? Yet if they had just asked that one, really obvious question, then maybe, they'd start to understand that today's reality is nothing at all like they think!
Seemingly the Americans don't even understand, that stealth alone, defeats high-frequency (short wave), radar, by absorption and deflection, but it does not defeat low-frequency (long wave radar). Therefore, to detect, track, and target enemy stealth aircraft from BVR, can be done with long-wave radar, (but it must also be enhanced), to remove all background clutter for targeting purposes.
So regardless of the aircraft's RCS (we read the Americans believing means so much), when they're being detected, tracked and targetted by long wave radar, they're far from stealthy, and they just light up, and they stand out like a beacon in the night.
It also seems, that these Americans we always read talking their juvenile understanding of these military aircraft that they don't even know, that, neither the APG-77 radar in the F-22, or the APG-81 radar in the F-35, have any kind of long wave radar, (hence, they can't detect any enemy stealth aircraft from BVR). So, just think about that, and what it actually means?
This is also a fact, the US air force will be fully aware of, only it seems the reality is, when the F-35 radars were being designed 13 years ago, there were no other stealth aircraft to think about as a potential threat!
So, obviously, we must ask, just what do the F-22 or the F-35, actually have available to them, to detect enemy stealth aircraft from BVR?
They have AWACS, (that can transfer all targetting data to the F-22 - F-35's in real time). Only, that's not possible today. And this is why actually understanding any potential adversaries real abilities, becomes extremely important, critical in fact.
As, on the other hand, we find this Russian SU-57 rubbish (the Americans all claim), is equipped with a 5th generation radar, (with enhanced long-wave radar), their new Byelka (2band) radar used in SU-57. They can detect, track, and target enemy stealth jets from BVR, and very easily today.
Russia has designed, and developed, the first L-Band fighter radar we've ever seen. They've embedded L-band AESA radars into the leading edges of the wings.
The L-band AESA radar "data" gets processed in real time (through extremely powerful Russian computers), being significantly enhanced, removing all background clutter, seeing them perfectly able to detect, track, and engage enemy stealth aircraft from BVR.
This new Russian radar technology, along with its very impressive range parameters, and it's jamming ability (over very large areas) make this aircraft deadly to all other aircraft types. (But according to the Americans), it's just Russian rubbish, right?.
They can also detect, track, and target enemy stealth fighters, long before they enter Russian airspace, (from much greater distances today), with "real-time" data from all those massive Russian ground (long wave stations), that are all protected with the networked S-400 defensive system.
Russia's new (2band) radar, covers all frequencies across all channels, used for tracking, targeting, and also for jamming (over large areas). It's part of Sh121 multifunctional integrated radio electronic system (MIRES) on board the SU-57.
We should also understand, that Russia tested this new radar suit in the SU-35's, so they also have the option of fitting this radar into the SU-35's. Seeing the SU-35 at no disadvantage against either the F-22/35.
As although the SU-35 can be detected, tracked, targeted and shot down from BVR by the US stealth fighters, the SU-35 equipped with this new radar is just as able to detect, track, target and shoot down the US stealth fighters from BVR.
Seeing the all-important, huge Russian advantage, in BVR missile range, plus the excellent manoeuvring, neither the F-22/F-35 have, as more than critical, (if you're going to avoid simply being blown out of the sky).
The truth is, this new Russian 5th generation radar, design, has very clear potentials, to provide genuine shared multifunction apertures, with applications including...
Search, track, and destroy, missile mid-course guidance, against low signature aircraft, identification of friend or foe with secondary surveillance radar.
Passive angle tracking and geolocation of JTIDS-MIDS-Link-16 emitters at long ranges.
Passive angle tracking and geolocation of L-band AEWC - AWACS and surface based search radars at long ranges.
Passive angle tracking and geolocation of hostile (i.e. Western) IFF and SSR transponders at long ranges.
High-powered active jamming of JTIDS-MIDS-Link-16 emitters.
High-powered active jamming of satellite navigation receivers over large areas.
High-powered active jamming of L-band AEWC-AWACS and surface based search radars at long ranges.
High-powered active jamming of guided munition command data links over large areas. [Effectively, and completely, neutralizing the USA's use of AWACS for their detection].
The Tikhomirov NIIP L-band AESA radar, is an extremely important strategic development, and it's a technology which once fully matured and deployed in useful numbers, will render narrowband stealth designs like the F-22 & F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, and many, UAVs, as highly vulnerable to all flanker variants equipped with such radars.
But, wait, It's just Russian crap? Also, just what have the Americans ever seen the F-22 do? Well, other than flying over a beach, on a UA-cam video?
Absolutely nothing!
So what is that all about?
And BTW we have Russian aircraft approaching us every day, there is nothing we or anyone else can do about it, and we did it all by ourselves, by stupidly flying our aircraft toward Russia, and after we agreed to do that no more! So our own fault. Well actually, it's your fault, as all this country does is what you order it to do, and that's soon going to change, thank God.
You people are the problem against the whole world today, yet we read you all sat in these comments with seemingly no idea about any of this and NO IDEA, of this backlash happening across all Europe today, against all of you. You only have support of our governments, none of the people, and every pro US government in Europe are being taken down one country at a time, even here in the UK our Washington puppet government has zero chance of reelection.

Brings back lots of memories. Different times 70’s through 80s Russian bears Tu-95s flew at us all the time. We would always know they were coming. I’m talking in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Well before that young radar operator knew they were coming. At a certain point they were intercepted by a couple of fighters. F4s on my first time. They would get close enough to see the pilot from the flight deck. Never over. As they approached say from the port side hundreds of well wishers would line up and moon them. The tu95 would pass circle back and come down the starboard side. All would run across the flight deck and repeat. I I’ve been out 30 plus years now so I doubt if that happens any more. Cold War games!! Different times. Way different times. Former CTO2 USN
This is hilarious. Did Soviet naval crews do anything similar?
Or the Russians showing them Playboy magazines...
😀😃😄😆😂🤣😎😺🐕
Can’t do a full moon with women onboard.
I was a flight engineer on a P3B and later on a P3C from 75 to 81 out of Brunswick ME. When we deployed we were for the most part shadowed by the TU-95 bears on occasion we would loose them by flying very low altering our course and flying without any lights or equipment giving away our location. When we encountered Russian ships we had a free fall shoot that we could drop items out the aircraft. On occasion we would take hustler or penthouse type reading materials put them in a weighted plastic bag and practice dropping them on the ships when we flew over them. They didn’t seam to mind us flying directly over them. In fact they always smiled and waved at us. On occasion they would shoot flairs or light us up with very bright flood lights and we would return the favor. Those were the days I’ve visited 21 counties in my 6 years flying and my flight hours are just over 2,700 hour as a flight engineer. When I was with VP-11 in December 1979 we lost an aircrew (13 of my best friends)they flew into a mountain in the Canary Islands. While tracking a Russian sub. At the time weather was zero visibility we were flying a small contingency of 3 birds out of Lajes in the Azores these were the days before GPS all navigation was done with time and distance charts the mountain they hit was around 6000ft and we were told they impacted the mountain at 5300 ft saddest of times and the reason I didn’t stay in the navy and go on as an officer and finally a pilot. Freedom is not free god rest there souls AMS-1 Bailey.
Right that is why it is all over news
It was good to see the old F4's😊
Great old monster of a bird, still in use with a couple of countries I believe
My dad worked at McDonald Douglas in St. Louis where they built the F4 and F15s he loved them both
Use to be a jet mech and worked on A LOT of F-4’s while stationed in Guam. Good ole P&W j-79’s. If my memory serves me correct, same engine as on the B-52’s and even the f-111.
Loved the f-4
All there doing is to study our response time and methods.(opinion)
@@jameswhitman8710 it’s left over from the Cold War, we watch them they watch us
In the 1960s 1970s Britain was the unsinkable aircraft Carrier. Every week Russia would send over another "Bear" to test the defenses. Britain would detect the Bear and send up an interceptor. The top interceptor of the Period was the Lightning. This is a Mach 2 interceptor that could go supersonic in a vertical climb I've seen them do it. I had a long chat about this over a beer with "Wattie" a Lightning pilot, now dead. They would find the Bear, line him up and do a close Mach 2 pass on afterburner. The shockwave would rattle every screen, topple instruments, smash valves and pop rivets. When the Bear finally got a compass back up and working they always went home. Now are you telling me the US Navy can't handle this? I don't believe you.
I remember hearing a story about an aircraft carrier that had a medieval reenactment group on it of which the Captain was a member. They saw Russians incoming and he called mandatory fighter practice on the flight deck. I’ve always loved that story.
In case you’re wondering, it was a Society for Creative Anachronism group.
Brilliant. I bet the Soviet/Russian pilots were laughing their heads off and had a hard time getting anyone to believe them if they didn’t photograph or film it. Great story, thank you.
It’s a game that can turn bad.
Flying over one is MUCH DIFFERENT than flying AT one.
The US Navy is the best.
The U.S. Navy. Founded by one of my fellow Scots, John Paul Jones! (Who wasn't a member of Led Zeppelin.)
Sure... In Hollywood propaganda movies... Not in the real world... Yanks are too brainwashed to understand that... Well... You have a 'Woman of the Year' in your ranks after all... 😂
They used to do that to us off the va capes at flight deck level their fishing snooper vessels would follow us 20 miles of the coast
In the 70's U.S. Navy ships were routinely overflown and have been ever since. I was on a carrier once that was overflown by a "Bear-Delta." This was shortly after the end of Vietnam conflict and seemed rather routine!
Drive the plane away...yeah...while part of USS Ranger BG we had a Bear D (escorted) come right over my DDG, split the stacks almost. Fun times.
Unless its a weather baloon. Then we protect them till they get all pictures they need.
On the USS ENTERPRISE in 78 there Bear was allowed 5 miles from ship. At high altitude 5 miles is squat . We're defending freedom and their not. Let them swim
What happens to an American plane that over flies the Russian fleet?The same that happens to russian planes over the u.s. fleet.Absolutely nothing.
What Russian fleet? A large part of it lies on the seabed. And was sent there by a country that does not even have a navy.
@@zenon7094imagine the Americans having lost to goat herders wearing sandals riding donkeys and armed only with a rifle in Afghanistan 😅 They didn’t even have boots, helmets, drones, tanks, artillery, navy or airforce. It took two decades to replace one group of terrorists with the same group of terrorists 😂
@@zenon7094 Where did you hear this nonsense? Corrupt media? Well done. The Majority of the Russian navy is intact and serves in pacific and Atlantic.
Besides what zenon... speaks of, your confusing Battle Groups with FLEETS.
To see an actual fleet all within the same area is talking a "D Day" scenario.
As far as BG to BG, there is no argument, because there at this time is no comparison whatsoever.
Russia or even the USSR has never had a Carrier Group b/c they have never owned a Carrier as referenced here.
Japan, sure. Russia, N - E - V -E - R, ever.
@@artimustrieste1480 Both Russia and USSR have different military doctrine which is not focused on fleets, since its not locked by the water as the US.
USSR had 5 or 6 aircraft carriers. Russia possesses 1.
@zenon7094 Ukraine destroyed several patrol vessels in the Black Sea. What fleet are you talking about? The majority of vessels including large fleet of nuclear subs is located in the northern region, Baltic and Pacific region.
This happened throughout the cold war. Sometimes ships collide leaving dents. A lot of noise sometimes in the news for few days. Nothing really happened. Bothsides knew not to let things get out of hand.
they do that all the time we were patrolling north of
japan close to vladivostok.... they even drop concussion bombs.
I think the answer is both areas need to be patrolled so of course there is a bit of Sabre rattling which increases the possibility of something happening in the way of escalation but that’s the nature of the business.
Well put. I just find the opportunities for mis-interpretations these intentional close encounters present to be unjustifiable on BOTH sides. One screw-up and we could be looking at a nuclear exchange. As the world situation intensifies, it's not wise, no, not one bit..
It is a mutual admiration society. Each side retains its financing and technology upgrading.
Good report, thanks
These spy planes or versions like them are in the US Navy as well.
Those military measures are ("BOTH") a show of force, & a measure of demonstrating [combat-readiness] when absolutely necessary!!!! 😐
It definitely increase the risk of confrontation and must be avoided at all cost. They need to rewrite the rules of engagement!
Increases the threat on both sides.
Thank goodness I've seen enough of this in real time on the USS Independence CV 62 in the old days 😂😂
Huh, it went exactly the way you think. They fired 5 missiles at it and atomized it, then pretended they did nothing at all.
The immediate reaction of the crew is to crap their pants when the rockets hit and yell histerically "that fighter is a mig!"
Peace through strength
Where did this occur?
Thanks ! Very informative !
Remember what happened to the Captain of the USS Vincins involving an Iranian airbus!
The US Navy, just like the US Army, is a decade behind the curve about modern warfare. Just like a tank, any ship or carrier is a "sitting duck" to any suicidal weapon, of sufficient size. We designed tanks and apc's and these are easily destroyed by 2kg and 6kg rounds in certain places. Any aircraft carrier has three obvious weaknesses, with the obvious one at the base of the control tower. Any severance of the communications to the rest of the ship, renders it unable to sense or see strategic incoming weapons. The crew can still run the ship, via portable radios and cellphones, just like similar examples in WW2, but that process has not been trained for, not thought out, and probably impossible for a modern crew to be able to perform safely, without causing more damage. Once the carrier is blind, all the other processes become difficult, if not impossible. If other ships cluster around to protect it, they become a dense-pack of targets, worthy of another suicidal strike. Terrorists and Russians and Others have already used these tactics at many global places. An Assault-Breaker type of missile can launch 30+drones, which if emplaces on the deck of an active carrier, would essentially enflame the entire stored aircraft area of the deck, eliminate the deck crew, and probably cause random explosions of mounted weapons. This technology is already being investigated for real, and seen in gaming videos. Ukrainians are using duct-taped weapons on drones, to take hard-armor vehicles, including M1s, M2s, LAVs, Strykers, etc, etc. Wait until the Navy learns about underwater drones. They will be shocked, just shocked, Just like in the movie, to learn that there are unobservable things loosely floating beneath them.

OFF TO THE FUTURE WE GO!
I went on some patrols in a P-3 50 years ago and we flew around USSR ships some. Our cameras would be running and their guns would track us. Some of the guys on the deck would wave. We used to kid around saying it wouldn’t be a good time to open the bomb bay.
When we were rigging the Soviets, it was common to have guns tracking us, and them shooting flares "in our general direction". Oranges from box lunches could mysteriously fall from free fall chutes during on-top shots. We never did figure out how that occurred.
@@jimtownsend7899 We came across two Soviet subs tied to a tender while transiting the Med. We descended rapidly and dropped a flare on the bubbles of one of the subs getting underway. The tender lowered a lifeboat and went to retrieve the flare. It was fun to watch.
Incredible!!
Mr Tuvok, activate the Photonic Cannon! 😄
The Russians are just like the United States. They have the same wants and needs. There must be mutual respect between the two nations to avoid conflict.
You don’t need World War III this is my message
🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🙏❤️
I disagree. When don't stop pushing line. It takes a plane being shot down. Your living in fantasy world in your mind that doesn't exist. That's like letting bully keep doing it. No u don't let it continue.
We had several encounters when I was active duty USN in the 70s with Russian Planes
@navyproductions I am, what you would call, a Jarhead but even I will say, after watching this video, Go Navy!!! The way I was taught in Boot back in the early '80's, the Navy is part of the Corps anyway! LOL
All this power and advanced technology seems ineffective against low tec HOUTI missiles.

Is there a minimum distance that has to be respectet by both parties? In internationa waters all have right to be there.
Maybe the Russians just stopped by to say hello? LOL
This incident happened at the International water, both site must exercise mutual respect and not to cause any harm to each other, and restrain any use of force!
It doesn't matter. That should never be allowed to happen with the US military.
Try doing that with the Russian navy,and c what happens. The Russian navy would never allow that happen. Are u not living in the real world?

Nice video, but could have all been said in 5 minutes without being so redundent.
If the Russians keep pushing the boundary,and if you do nothing it's a sign of weakness

@@johnhopkins6260 Completely agree. It’s a mature and restrained response when they are tweaking your tail…
Completely agree.
Exactly,and the Russians keep doing it.
What I don’t understand is why they Let a spy plane any plane for that matter get so close
Back in the 80s, we (B52G) occasionally were shadowed by Soviet interceptors. On one such occasion it was a pair of MiG23s. Our copilot, in a gesture of humor, held a centerfold up against the window. The Flogger rolled over and flew next to us inverted. We didn't understand until the copilot realized he had the centerfold upside down. I'm pretty sure the Soviet pilot was too far away to make out any details, but he knew what it was and was probably laughing as we parted ways.
It just goes to show that politics aside, we were pretty much cut from the same cloth.
We have to use power against another using power. There's no other way to keep it under control.
The most ridiculous oxymoron is MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. I condemn all countries.
But the saddest life form is the so-called human being who is always fighting to be top alpha with the biggest You-Know-What. Such bull!

I believe that's called saber rattling, other wise known as harrassment...😂
If the Russians had been more aggressive then it would be splash one spy plane
This has been and will continue be a constant activity for many years. USS Coral Sea, CV-43. The Russian Bear (TU-95) came to visit us during the mid 70's. They would have several F-4's ready to go at any time.
I was on uss coral sea in 77 west pac .I was with vf191.I also have seen the Russian bear a couple of times on the flight deck
There is always a CAP somewhere not too far away from its "home". The "intercept" launch is just for show.
@@randywilliams568 I was in Operations department on the 75 and 77 west pac.
When I was on the Constellation (Vietnam era) we had occasional visits by the Russian "Bear." We weren't terribly concerned and we knew they were coming. We used to stand out on the flight deck, wave at them and they waved back.
If the Russian intelligence gathering is so great perhaps one day they will get to realise the full might and power of the US fleet (and others in NATO) and to attack it wouldn't be a wise move under any circumstances.Deterrence is the name of the game...

Whoever is responsible for allowing potential disaster to fly over a USA aircraft carrier should be court martialed.
I would imagine the carrier group could jam instruments on the spy plane?
They increase the risk of conflict
Notice this channel is called NAVY Productions. This is all just a show. a fun production of "what if".
Why weren't the alert aircraft launched? Why didn't radar pick the Russians? Why were they able to get THAT close to the carrier? Isn't there a Doctrine that states that at X miles away, launch alert aircraft?

Why is it that our military is told to stand down while in danger
If this is true HOW did they get this close to our shore? Our military is supposed to know and prevent any potential threat
US Navy; born to be on high alert...
How many types of jets are shown in the stock footage? I get that there is no actual footage of this encounter, but can we not change the American jet or the Russian spy plane with every cut?
The game of cat of mouse can eventually result in accidental conflict with the danger of expanding.
