weren’t concerned at all about US Navy presence in the Black Sea because Russia could easily take out US ships if it needed to do so.


Easily? Put in may want to hear from his admirals particularly one who believes the US Navy would take the Black Sea fleet in 20 minutes.

Bastion is a mobile system that launches supersonic missiles that travel to targets at 2000 mph at 20 ft off the surface.


Short answer is yes. Russia has used supersonic antiship missiles long enough to be admitted as an AARP member. Nothing new even same old Russian bluster.

How do we avoid getting hit by this thing or manage to shoot it down?
