- A U.S. Navy destroyer was “aggressively approached” by a Russian ship in the North Arabian Sea yesterday, officials said.
The Russian Navy ship was dangerously close to the USS Farragut before the American ship “sounded five short blasts,” the Navy’s 5th Fleet announced today.

Russia and China has now better weapons and high- technology than us USA
Former US Navy here. The media always hypes these stories. The reality is that we were always up on deck waving to our Russian counterparts, and when they did things like this--we loved it. It's part of maritime comradery and brings a little excitement on those boring deployments.
That makes perfect sense. Thank you for your post and your service.
👍
Did you do drag races with them?
Thank u 🙏 for this comment i was starting to get anxiety attack i feel better ♥️❤️🙏🙌🏼
Ah ok, that makes sense then. If you can keep your wits while, those about you are losing theirs... Tks for clarifying.
Now I get it. The Russian war ship's name is "aggressively" and it approaches.
Bruh
Nice one 👍
😃😅🤣😂
Just checking each other out. My ship met up with a KYNDA Class Russian Cruiser on the way to Vietnam. I was aboard an AE. We both stopped to view each other. The Russian ship had missiles and guns everywhere they could mount one, an awesome sight. Except for our Attack Sub escort who would have blown the Cruiser out of the water, we were defenseless. We waved and saluted. Friends today, enemies tomorrow.. it’s all up to the Politicians. Vietnam Vet USN
Friends today, enemies tomorrow. 💔
All they wanted was a "Warship" meet up and a casual drag race.
Exactly, good ol' fun
@why not ? why so serious
@why not ? 20? Anyway they flattops are useless against countries such as Russia and China. Only good for fighting 3rd World countries.
@why not ? I'm on about military capability not GDP and actually the most accurate way of measuring economies is to use PPP. Back to flattops. What use are they against Russia or China? Both countries have made them obsolete in the event of a US attack on their country.
@@MrScotia IF flat tops are so obsolete, why is every nation that can, building them. Including china which by the way has yet to prove its propaganda regarding hypersonic missiles. The US doesn't talk without having proof to back it up.
Title should be corrected “Russians race US destroyer in open waters”
The media likes to hype things up a lot.
@@velvetwatermelon2647
imagine a american war ship racing with a russian war ship that wouldve been epic
Who going to win

Legend has it, the warship is nowadays a submarine

I don’t think the Russian ship is really a destroyer.

That wasn’t aggressive the Russians were playing around and saying hello
dumb
Russian way
JD uk93: the Russians are indeed saying hello. They don't mean to attack or act as a threat to the Americans. It has been a long time they have not meet each other.

They was all probably drunk on vodka 😂
@@daylankeene1399 We don't drink any more than you do. For example, I do not drink vodka, from strong I prefer moonshine on berries. In general, I only drink beer. However, my bear does not support me in this.
@@user-FNM443rus I for one love vodka and drink it more then I should I think I would fit right in in Russia 😂
Isn't just wonderful the love between these two countries? And it's a long lasting love, since the 1940s.
It started even earlier, in the 19th century during the American Civil War. The Russian Empire acted against the interests of the British Empire and supported the US, and even sent 6 large warships to the shores of the US to help Abraham Lincoln in case Britain wanted to attack again or other countries wanted to intervene. And these Russian ships also helped in the war against the southern states. So in some way the fate of the United States could have taken a different path if the Russians had not always helped them and had not given them Alaska almost for free.
@@gunterodim1535if Putin ever goes out of office and a better leader comes I hope the US and it’s allies and Russia get along more and become allies
@@CASA-dy4vs this will not happen if there is no change in leadership in the United States. The United States violated all relations with Russia. Putin in the 2000s applied for Russia to join NATO. But he was refused. Then it became obvious what plans the United States had - to always remain a political opponent of Russia and oppose Russia's interests. This is exactly what happened when Russia went to protect the Russian people in Ukraine in 2014, and the US imposed sanctions. Ukrainians burned Russians alive in the city of "Odessa" in the administrative building. You can google this video. So many Russians suffered throughout Ukraine in 2014. So it is clear that the US is an enemy of Russia and will not put up with Russia until it is as weak as it was in the 1990s. In those days, Russia was just a poor gas station. Now everything is different and your economy sucks, not ours.
@@CASA-dy4vsPutin is better
I'm pretty sure this is just the military equivalent of seeing another school bus on the road during a fieldtrip

It is ..A war ship meet and drag competition..Just a bit of fun on deployment..

5 short horn blasts (US) = "I do not understand your intention."
1 short horn blast (Russia) = "Passin' you on my left, slowpoke."
also 5 short horn blasts mean "Warning"
No 5 horns mean a warning for a potential collision on both ships and 1 needs to move away a little-Americans
And 1 long horn means He is going near the blind spot of the other ship-Russian
This is pretty normal in the navy this happens quite more often in the south china sea by the Chinese and Philippines navy when both ships approach each other
🤣
well dominic should horn also his brain 😂🥸

If it was aggressive I’m sure a guy wouldn’t casually be walking across deck. lmao
0:15 for all those confused on what he's talking about.
if it was agressivly that ship already catched a anti ship missile. USA always has airsupport in the area :) on the other part. if it was agressive russia already attacked XD media is so fun sometimes
@@armrarr If it was aggressive especially in the arabian sea both ships probably were sinking before they came 2 km towards each other.
@@armrarr Did you have political stroke while typing this?
@@ampleman602 thats not aggressive. They won’t ram into the ship as it will cost them money to repair. And there is no aggression here.
I wanna see the video of Russians while they were doing this. They were like " gotcha blyat" and laughing
I've seen a few vids from the Russian side of these kind of things, they are always either laughing or saying"what the hell are they doing"😂
I disagree a little with my fellow sailors here in a rare occasion. I was on deployment outside Syria and as we tried to video record a sub launching missiles the Russians definitely didn't like that, the maneuvers became more hostile, but that's Navy life
Yeah Russians aren't fond of anyone ever seeing much less recording their subs.
Just blow it up. It’s Russian it won’t take much …
@@loveandmoney that sounds good to me Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
The Russians just wanted to see if there was a McDonalds on board the American vessel, they were getting tired of sawdust sausage.

Sometimes the gas tank door is open, gas cap was dangling there
No .. but they say : you have flat tire
" Hi, my American friend! your gas cap is open"
From Russian buddy 🇷🇺
Seeing both these enemy navy crafts together... bet all the fish and sea life around must have dashed away to safety.
Just like street racing only with battleships
Russian boat say "Hi, Comrades hows fishing" Us navy: "This is an act of agression, you are violating the law of the sea" .
@eamon thomas Oh no, Russia. What will we do? Ahhh. The horror.

Sorry dude, but Russia is the one country on the planet you really don't want to be going to war with like

I remember on my first Med cruise, as we neared the coast of Spain, a Russian trawler approached us close on our port side, we went to general quarters, (battle stations for you gamers), being a signalman I was standing near the Captain when he looked over to the Gunnery officer and said almost laughing, "Kevin, tell the boys not to point the guns at the Russians"
All these comments saying the Russians were being friendly and chill a few years ago must feel pretty stupid now.
As a retired Recon Marine, I was stationed on a few assault ships and a Helo Carrier, these " incidents" happened a few times while I was on board, they were not tense , American and Russian ships and subs have been playing cat & mouse for decades, it breaks up the monotony, both captains know the moves to make to avoid collision, once in a while you have a crackup because someone got careless, THATS ALL

That was a "danger" signal the US ship sounded. So, this US ship took it seriously.
Guess they’re just trying to say hi. Must be boring at sea
Да
It is
A whole day in the sea doesn't seem too boring to you at all?
They have to get that close due to the accuracy of their missile systems 🤣🤣🤣
I've been in similar situation's , (during my gov't sponsored travel 'round the world), in the Med. in 1980 with Cdn. Navy. Our ship, a Late 20th century destroyer that had a top speed of 25 - 27 knots. Their ship, a large hi-speed frigate that could average around 33 knots and max short rum at 35+ knots depending on conditions. It literally ran circles around us and we never even got close enough to see its name with magnification assists. It was all fun and games. But, now it's a lot more serious. My gen. was not so desperate. They had hopes. This gen. is a lot more desperate than mine was. Fortunately we have no direct problem with Russia yet.... It's China that everyone is watching now.. they have united at least 1/2 the world against themselves. And both are busy with the consequences of the global Mother Nature's Karma Delivery Service..
This comment unfortunately has not aged well...
@@adamseidel8901 And your inexperienced opinion of BLAH means nothing child !!!
Go back to your make believe world of fictional, story telling, right!?!?
Agreed, that “yet” has come and gone.
China’s position hasn’t changed but Russia’s pushing everyone disturbingly close to WWIII.
You made all that up.
The Russians were just having a bit of banter. Probably offered some Vodka
Zakapholiac: The Russians produces enough vodka so they were thinking if we can give our colleagues some to chill out. Afterall we are sailors
You can hear him say: " yep give me all ahead flank"
looks like they just wanted to see who has the faster vessel 🤣
foolish
Brian Greiner I think that’s wessle
They were basically just racing then.
Nice to see the militaries of different nations getting along so well.
maybe one side was racing, but the US ship was maintaining cruising speed, 15knts is the speed ships patrol at. If the Destroyer wanted to race, it would have opened up and easily doubled that speed. You can't even hear the Destroyer's engines working, let alone working hard, which when they go flank speed, its loud as hell. They were just doing what navies do when offered the opportunity...screw with the other just a little bit...we do it to them just as well.
Finally someone get it. Russians were gathering intelligence.

Must be lonely at sea.
Bth the ships should and would most likely make contact asking if they need anything specific or what their mission was
Should have passed some American cigarettes to them it would have been an ice breaker, but would have ended up with someone going to the brig ?
this is the equivalant of seeing a donkey riding cowboy refusing to move into the slow lane on the highway
It’s 2 years later and now we know the truth. The American ship is lucky that Russian tub didn’t spontaneously combust in their faces.
So is everything Russian bad quality all of a sudden?
@@diond9927 Yep
@@diond9927 yes, yes indeed, the Moskva anti missile systems being inactive/malfunctioning by the time it got hit by an Ukrainian missile and the subsequent fire that the crew were unable to control sinking the ship in the process are good examples of that, Russian Military is completely *ROT* in corruption, thus their equipment is either poorly maintained, made with low quality materials, made of outright stolen western tech (see drones with Panasonic cameras among other things) or scrapped on purpose in exchange for cigarettes and alcohol.
America: mind their own business
Russia: *this is what we call ship roulette*
They’re just being aggressively playful.
Yeah I mean they were up there sunbathing for goodness sakes
@john snow In our department of the Ministry of Defense they said: It is noted that it was the American crew that acted unprofessionally. The destroyer crossed the course of the Russian ship, although, according to international rules, it had to give way to an obstacle to the right. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation believes that the destroyer team deliberately violated.
It is noted that the crew of the Russian ship, on the contrary, showed professionalism. The sailors conducted a maneuver, "which allowed to prevent a collision with the intruder ship."
@@theflayingdatchman1277 america bad, russia good and professional.

I've seen wasps more aggressive. The Sun needs to stop.
Yeah so true
Cuz you don't know anything about international maritime law and the regulations and restrictions around other Navy's it would've been aggressive if you could barely see them let alone right next to your ship. Things like this as small as it is can start a war
I would've blown them out of the water after 1 warning. End of story.

The wind was more intimidating than that boat.
Boat??? That Moskva can shoot 20 guided missiles in 30 seconds.... It would obliterate that US ship before they heard the missiles going off..... Thank god they're both in friendly territory.. It would go either way if in their own channels
