Canned Sunshine posted:Frosted Flake can probably speak much more to this, but I think one of the areas of concern for carrier strike groups has been getting swarmed by missiles and/or drones. I know about coastal artillery, and naval gunfire support, a bit about naval gunnery, but the equation sort of changed in the missile age. The idea now is to not get shot at at all, if you can help it. Being detected is bad, being engaged is worse, so ideally neither happens. Countermeasures are mostly focussed on preventing those two things, and after that are the missile interceptors, CIWS and chaff/flare. Also, none of the theories of missile age sea combat have ever been tested in combat at least on a larger scale than a handful of engagements involving single ships. Guess whose the first ship sunk by a missile was?  In 1955 the UK sold Zealous to Israel, which commissioned her into the Israeli Navy as INS Eilat (after the Israeli southern coastal city of Eilat, replacing the earlier INS Eilat) in July 1956. On the morning of 31 October, in the midst of the Suez Crisis, the Egyptian destroyer Ibrahim el Awal (an ex-British Hunt class destroyer) shelled Haifa harbour. A counter-attack by the French destroyer Kersaint and by the Israeli Yaffo and Eilat forced the Egyptian destroyer to steam back towards Port Said. It was then also attacked by a pair of IDF/AF Ouragans and a Dakota. The crew of the badly damaged vessel finally capitulated, and the Israelis towed the ship to Haifa; it later became the Haifa in the Israeli Navy. On a patrol during the night of 11–12 July 1967, Eilat and two Israeli torpedo-boats encountered two Egyptian torpedo-boats off the Rumani coast. They immediately engaged the vessels and sank both. In an early event in the War of Attrition, Eilat was sunk on 21 October 1967 in Mediterranean international waters off Port Said in the Sinai, hit by three Soviet-made Styx missiles launched by Egyptian missile boats. An Egyptian Komar-class missile boat positioned within the harbour at Port Said fired two missiles at the Israeli destroyer. Eilat's radar did not reveal any suspicious activity or movements because the Egyptians launched the missiles from within the port. Eilat's captain ordered evasive action when the missiles were detected, but the first missile hit the ship just above the waterline at 5:32 p.m. Two minutes later the second missile struck, causing additional casualties. While Eilat began to list heavily, the crew tended to the wounded and engaged in rescue and repair operations while waiting for additional ships of the Israeli Navy to come to their rescue. Approximately one hour later another Egyptian Komar-class missile boat from Port Said harbour fired two more Styx missiles at Eilat. The third missile hit Eilat amidships, causing more damage and further fires, while the fourth went astray and crashed in the water nearby. Eilat sank about two minutes later. Out of a crew of 199, 47 were killed or missing and 90–100 were wounded. Frosted Flake has issued a correction as of 00:52 on Nov 3, 2023 |

Confined waters make it harder to hide ships, and easier to engage them, so it's a bit hubristic, but par the course for the USN I suppose.

Cuttlefush posted:lotta tribes on notice It was originally something that was imposed on the tribes to ultimately eliminate them, and it presently creates perverse incentives for tribal governments to purge their rolls whatever way they can, to deny benefits to their members, so yeah, tribal governments like the ones AIM fought at Wounded Knee probably should be on notice. (It's also just not how nations have ever worked, does anybody think that the genes of modern Hungarians are mostly those of the tribes that came off the steppes? Or that the genes of the present day French are mostly Frankish?) Pomeroy has issued a correction as of 01:26 on Nov 3, 2023 |

Yeah I just don't think the United States is going to let Israel dragon into a regional war. I think people are right and there's a good chance there will be a ceasefire announce tomorrow and Israel will claim victory as they normally do and try to continue the status quo. But I really don't think that is possible at this point Like anyone knew that comes to the country is going to know that Israel got forced into a ceasefire agreement that was not agreeable with them. The next thing is even after a ceasefire, there's still starvation and dehydration rampantly occurring in Gaza, they're going to have to resume the taps. And when they do so they will completely lose their mandate on violence against the Palestinian people. And I don't need mandate like it's a good thing. It sounds like one after reading my text, but mandate as in the world was completely okay with them just killing and killing and killing and pushing the fence back closer to the sea over and over again. Now I don't think that they're going to have such a level of support. Especially for what could be even small " mowing the lawn " actions as they call them.

tangy yet delightful posted:"yes" probably in some capacity, but to be pedantic a missile has post-launch guidance in some form but a rocket does not. My guess is that's a rocket that can be targeted based on amount of fuel loaded or an engine timer cutoff if it's not a solid fuel rocket, and then of course by raising/lowering the launcher to get the right angle. It looks similar to the Yemeni variants of the Iranian Quds missile (or a ground launched variant of the Ya-Ali ALCM). That's a turbojet engine on it, usually a copy of the Czech TJ-100 or similar, but that one looks maybe smaller, hard to tell scale. These low cost cruise missiles have guidance systems, with ranges of several hundred km. Missiles like this were used to hit Saudi oil refineries back in 2019.

The US probably doesn't want a larger war, but they really can't rein in the Israelis either. They are still using the "pause" line because Israel's ground forces probably do need a break including reinforcements, and whatever aid is going to be allowed in is minimal; it helps more than it hurts them. Otherwise, it very well may be too late for a real ceasefire, as it sounds like a lot of movement has been already occurred, and if Israel is forced on the defensive...why let up?
