A Nimitz has 4 in less than a km with 2 rfm in a carrier strike group with 2 cruisers with 2 ciws each, 7 destroyers with 1ciws each and various surface support ships often with at least one ciws. That’s at least 15 of these bad boys with converging areas of coverage and a carrier airwing that can act with impunity while ciws blankets the sky in lead and sweet music.
War changed this year. With a limited number of anti ship missiles, this was a solid defense. Now with a hug raft of drones to shoot down and anti ship missiles and submersible drones, brrrrrrrrr isn’t what it used to be.
Russias navy and specifically their naval losses are not remotely comparable to the us navy given russias navy has always been lackluster anyway, and the us navy is leaps and bounds more advanced in damn near every way.
watch a couple drone target videos or pacfire and remember thats usually one single ship.
This ship is almost certainly doing sigint which is why its alone in hostile waters, they arent worried about it because they dont particularly need to.
doubtful, they know that ships have multiple ways to shut down their drones. It’s just to be a fly buzzing around the the metaphorical head of the ship
I guarantee Iran is using these chuckle-fucks to gauge our ships’ defenses.
Good luck, if you’ve seen ciws and rfm going full blast you can understand it’s unlikely for much to get through.
Warning mind numbing brrrrrrrrtttt. https://youtu.be/BnrSTkidXa8?si=AdRjdaduurQfIkbZ
Warning very loud but no brrrrttttt just cute covers popping off and missiles exploding. https://youtu.be/vxy8XcE1VjE?si=Mw94GY3Qxi0fwI1P
Ed: Three spread out over 2ish km https://youtu.be/XceGKHATcYE?si=ptUSXyFS2rNCPXuf

It’s about technology designed to shoot down a few incoming targets, being challenged by a thousand incoming targets.

If I wanted to know more about my enemy I’d send flies at his head
