USS Caron getting rammed by the Russians in the Black Sea - Feb 1988

- In February 1988, Caron operating with Yorktown, entered Soviet 7 miles ) territorial waters limit in the Black Sea off the Crimean Peninsula. Under international law, this act could be permissible if the ship was progressing from one point in international waters to another point in international waters via the shortest course possible, but according to the Soviet Union, it was the right of the USSR to authorize or prohibit travel in selected areas within the 12 mile limit. The United States however did not recognize the Soviet's claim in this case. To prevent it from becoming accepted precedent, the US Navy claimed that it had sailed warships through such areas at regular intervals in the past, which we had, not just two years prior.
On this occasion, Caron had onboard a ships signal exploitation spaces system, operated by a crew of 18 in support of the U.S. National Security Agency. This system was capable of recording data on Soviet defense radars and communications.
In response, the Soviets deployed a destroyer and a Mirka II class light frigate as well as a KGB and "civilian" ships to intercept the U.S. ships. Several times, Soviet vessels obtained radar "lock" on the Caron and Yorktown. Both American ships maintained a constant course and speed throughout the incident. Eventually, the Soviets lightly rammed both ships. No significant damage resulted to any of the ships involved.
Both US warships sent an account of the incident to the Commander in Chief of United States Naval Forces in Europe. The Caron reported at 13:20 local time, it was informed on channel 16 VHF by the Bezzavetny: "Soviet ships have orders to prevent violation of territorial waters, extreme measure is to strike your ship with one of ours."[1] The reply of the Caron was "I am engaged in innocent passage consistent with international law."[1] The Yorktown, in its report stated that on 9:56, local time, it was contacted by the Bezzavetny via channel 16 and told to leave Soviet territorial waters or "our ship is going to strike on yours."[1] Then, according to the report, the Bezzavetny came alongside port side of the Yorktown at 10:03 and bumped it by turning into the ship.[1]
As for the music, take note that this was shot on VHS and back in 1988, when we did not have CZcams. The only people we thought would see this was friends and family, not a bunch of people from all over the world. No the music is not masking the screams from the crew on the USS Caron, so if you don't like it, there is a volume button - use it
Also check out the video from the USS Yorktown at • 1988 soviet ramming US...
This is the video that the Russian news showed on the 10th Anniversary - All I can say is I can't believe that the Russian people believed and animated version of what happened over the real tape.

The Caron was named after my Corpsman and friend Wayne Caron. We were in 2nd plt. 3rd. Battalion, 7th Marines in VN. Wayne was killed on 28 July 1968 in an ambush. He was crawling from wounded Marines to others trying to save lives. He was posthumously awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. Semper Fi Doc. You are remembered by many. OOHRAH.

Jeff reading your post gave me chills, we know the story very well and all of us served proudly knowing what the name stood for
@@stealthbiker45 I'm glad. Thanks for your comment. He was a really nice guy and when he heard "corpsman up" he was a hero.
I was a sonar operator on one of these Russian ships back in '84. It was very similar; ours had only one two-barrel 55mm automatic cannon and two torpedo tubes as well as a lot of anti-submarine bombs. The humps in the back are the suction of two jet engines which will blow compressed air into a tunnel downstream of the propellers. These things were quite fast.
do you by chance know of anyone that was on this ship or the one that hit the USS Yorktown? It would be so cool to be able to talk with them

The 1970's and 1980's was by FAR the best years of my life.... Wow what a Great Country the USA is
In order for the russians to behave this way I'm pretty sure the american vessel was in their territorial waters, and the only means authorized and reasonable was to give a none violent push to the americans to go away, that's the only logical thing that can be apply here.
I'm not trying to call you a liar now I'm not trying to piss anybody off but it does seem a bit ridiculous and irrational to ram a ship with another ship just because they're in your waters it would make more sense to take other actions cuz its just stupid when you can fire a couple of warning shots that hardly cost anything at all instead of intentionally damaging your boat to cause thousands of dollars worth of damage to not really do anything at all I like I said I will I was just a kid when this took place so I don't know I was just trying to point out a bit of logic here

Facts the author forgot to mention:
1. The video shows only the very beginning of the incident, not the whole story
2. Yorktown had significant damages, including damaged Harpoon launchers, and caught fire
3. Following the incident Yorktown was out of service for several months because of repairs
4. After the collision, US ships immediately left the area and went to neutral waters
5. International law (UNCLOS III) allows defining territorial waters using straight baselines in case of indented coastal line.
6. As a consequence, US ships did not respect limits of Russia's territorial waters.
7. US ship could not use the right of innocent passage as they were on recon mission. (Art. 19, UNCLOS III)
Hope this helps
So they had a fight??

CNE ordered the transit and the Skippers followed it to the T. Whose career was ended? I don’t recall anyone’s was. This was what the Pentagon was expecting when they sent the same two ships from the 86 incident in to rightfully passage. They also openly admitted they were collecting intelligence. So who and for what reason was there a career ending situation?
I remember being told by my grandpa that stuff like this wasn't infrequent back then. He said that more than a few times Russian ships in the same port as ours would do uncomfortable passes. My favorite was one where he was on deck and a Russian cruiser went by almost as close as the one in the video, to where they could see all the guns on the ship aimed at theirs. When he said everything he emphasized that it was pretty literal, their deck was filled with sailors pointing machine guns at their ship yelling, and when they got their closest they opened their torpedo hatches. All of this while the Russian ship was leaving the port that they were heading into(yea they went out of their way to get right up to our ship lol). Not that my grandpa didn't say that we didn't do stuff like that either.
One short funny story being that his captain was getting sick of "fishing boats" that were obviously spy ships tailing them, so when one of them failed to get out of the way when their destroyer was heading in it's direction his captain told the crew to "Run him over!", the little fishing boat barely getting out of the way before it almost capsized from the wake of the destroyer.
That's too funny! It's the little ship that could :D

@@lgd1974 They didn't stand a chance of hitting us. The other ship was a WW2 era diesel Frigate. The USS Spruance DD-963 was one of the fastest and most maneuverable ships ever made. I'm sure the Aft Lookout wasn't happy and probably got soaked and nearly washed overboard

Then the soviet eara came to the end of 1990.but now putten trying to not have war with all nato countries. Let's just leave Russia alone. And let have peace with each other. Why war I'll just be a no win situation. Because both us and Russia have nuclear weapons that we could destroy each other and the earth million times over. All humans don't want ww3.
Fake. WoWS taught me that when enemy vessel rams you, both vessels explode.
True🤣
Fking 1/4 speed touch just end a whole thing
Proceed to tap the enemy ship at 0.55 kts, and you get a explosion.
You get what you see. WoW is a game. No real life. There has been a lot of collisions between ships that there was no explosion. A destroyer bow is in the Atlantic after being hit by a cargo ship. The USS Wisconsin has part of the bow from the USS Kentucky after a collision in the 50s. These were direct hits. Not glancing blows. It's not uncommon for ships to collide when doing replenishment. It's also not uncommon for ships to bump in ports when they're tied together. Tugs always collide when they push ships around the harbor. It's nothing more than what you see in the video.

In total: USS Yorktown - 2 Harpoon rockets(canisters) was damaged, USSR Bezzavetnyy - lost its anchor. Since this moment, US military ships have never attempted to enter territorial waters without permission.
This happened because the Russian version of the treaty current at the time was written wrong. The Russian version claimed that transiting warships had to follow designated sea lanes, while the English version had no such restriction. The Russians admitted their version was wrong, and agreed to fix it.
...and now it's the Ukrainian frigate Dnipropetrovsk, apparently.
Rick Stricker It was a clear provocation by the Americans, because there was no need for innocent passage. It's not the English channel.
Our subs enter territorial waters daily
Its not theirs though its the black sea its INTERNATIONAL waters what is wrong with you just because they claimed it doesn't mean its for the russians
awkward moment when the caron didn't even move and the russian ship almost fell over
Lol. It's not frigate. It's more ship of corvette class, even smaller. It even didn't have name, only abbreviation SKR-6(project 35). Its displacement is only 1140 tons. Caron's displacement is 8040 tons. So, american ship was almost 8 times heavier. But who cares. Russian ship damaged boat davit and destroyed saving boat on forage. Russians showed that they were not joking and their intention was serious. Could be even ramming. That's russian style to attack in any case and they fulfill their task. Americans shitted in their pants and retreated.
Try to find video where another russian ship, frigate "Bezzavetny" is ramming USS "Yorktown". "Bezzavetny" was only 3 times lighter than "Yorktown" (3200 tons against 9600). You'll see that results of that ramming were much much more dramatic for americans. Maybe that's reason why publisher has not included video with "Bezzavetny" ramming in this clip.
Александр Чернов actually there is a link to that ramming in the description section - nice try - as for this ship causing any damage at all to the USS Caron, it took maybe 30 minutes to paint the chip and let it dry, as apposed to the broken propellor shaft and the damage to the Russian ship
Александр Чернов actually I don't lie, just curious as to where you were when this happened?
stealthbiker45 I was at school. But there are lots of materials available in Russia regarding that event. And many participants gave reports and interviews.

My brother was on the Caron when this incident occurred. I was amazed to find that it was actually recorded on video. Another unknown piece of cold war history!
The radio attack on the russian ship is one of the most well known cold war stories in europe that I'm surprised there are people who don't know the US was trespassing and illegally jamming other boats in the area, refused to leave after being told to leave all day, then attacked the police boat that was sent to escort it out. It's a prime example of americans not knowing what they are talking about.

Funny I hope your not serious did you learn that tactic in your bath tub playing battleships
In reality the russian ship was sucked into the US warship by its prop wash the russian would rather call it a ramming incident then admit to having poorly trained captains.
@@latinman1736 no I don't think that's right I'd say it was intentional I've had it happen to us on the straits of Hormuz by the Iranians
huyton traveller you can see the russian getting sucked under. No sane captain would ram a larger vessel travelling at such speeds. You can see the russian trying to get out of the wake towrds the end.
@@latinman1736 You're such a smartass, yet you say "then" instead of "than"
That was a little nudge, not a "Ram".
+306 CHAMPION Order to soviet ships was to force to change course. No more.
I believe that little nudge disabled majority of weaponry on USS Caron, so yeah, looks like a little nudge, BUT IT IS A LOT OF MASS behind it
Try stopping a train at 10 km/h, that thing will sweep you)
Pavel Plyushch Fair enough, when put that way I do see what you mean.
disabled the majority of the weaponry on the USS Caron? where do you see that? you must have been watching the Russian cartoon version of it. No damage to any weapons on the USS Caron
306 CHAMPION They tried, but failed.
I was the navigator plotting the Uss Caron's course and making entries into the ships log at the time of the incident. What a Great ship and crew. GO NAVY......

I remember hearing about this. I was on the USS Iowa at the time in the Persian Gulf. Part of Operation Earnest Will. We departed the Persian Gulf 20th of February 1988 through the Suez Canal. To bad we where not with you at the time. We wanted to play. :)
dude you would have scared the shit out of them, but that would have been awesome
By the way, weren't we with you when we attacked Libya?
stealthbiker45 Yes, the Uss Caron was on station with us and the USS Saratoga (CV-60), We had T-shirts made that said " I crossed the line of death".
After President Reagan announced the attack on Libya, a reporter asked if he thought the attack would curtail Libya’s terrorism.
“Have you ever heard the sound of a 16-inch cannon?” asked Reagan, as he smiled and walked away.
Jeffrey Harrison "have you heard a 16" cannon?" thats some funny shit right there. That whole ordeal was pretty cool, President Reagan called our ship and thanked us for the intel that we gathered and all that good stuff. We had those MIGs come after us until our F-16's escorted them off - aww the good ol days
stealthbiker45 lol. The sound of a broadside is like sitting under a trashcan and then having someone with a sledgehammer hit the can with all his strength. It makes every bone in your body vibrate.
That situation was intense, but fun. I still wish the battleships were still in use. Replace the old steam boilers with nuclear reactors to cut down on operating costs and you would have the ultimate ship.
It sure is nice talking to an old sailor that remembers the good old days. I hardly relate to any of todays sailors. This might sound sexist, but women and men on a ship together just does not work to well, it just causes more problems all around.
P.S. Thanks for the video, it was great to watch. I wish I had video of the Iowa, when I was aboard her, but all I had was a Polaroid camera.
That's what happens when you try to ram a ship that is 8 times larger than yours.
I did this with my bike's front wheel to my friend's rear wheel. The most embarrassing bike crash ever.
Ha! Same here. I totally deserved the wipe out. It was so funny, it ended the little spat that inspired it in the first place. Simpler times.
Is that code for gay?
If this doesn’t just sum up the 80’s for you!!!
The US ship didn't seem to budge a bit.
Because it was made in America. Don't fuck with Americas shit.
;)
+joey hill Because Russian corvette didn't want to break it apart, and besides. order was, firstly, just to touch american bucket to show that Russians are not joking. Second hit was heavier and Russian corvette smashed board fence, saving boat, and saving boat davit. And besides that Russian corvette of Mirka class. It has displacement just 960 tons while american destroyer is 8000 tons - 8 times heavier. Though Russian ships kicked them out of those waters. After Russian strikes american ships ran away from there.
I don't know that we 'ran away' but I am sure we left the area ;)
what do you expect, its a small anti ship corvette vs a enourmous guided missile destroyer
*Did the Russian ship have a dash cam?* 😁
No they don't. But they cam dash you up.
in soviet russia the cam dashes you
Actually you do can find the same event filmed from the Russian side. I'm sure it is on CZcams somewhere....
😂😂😂👍
Bash camera
As an old US replenishment ship officer this looks like an approach for replenishment gone bad! Aboard the USS Wichita (AOR-1) circa 1972 we encountered a few Russian ships in the Indian ocean but they kept their distance 4-5,000 yards but were smoking black excessively. Must have had bad oil or bad combustion control.
Hahaha all that stress went straight to those props. You can see them broken. What a "rooster tail".

@@ZloyBober77 Hey hey hey! These aren't territorial waters of Russia. In December 2003 Ukraine and Russia agreed to treat the Sea of Azov and the Kerch strait as shared internal waters, so ukrainian were allowed to enter the Sea of Azov according to the law. There are also ukrainian ports on the shore so there is no way these are russian territorial waters. This is a provocation from the side of Russia.

In my opinion, the soviet ship was sucked in by the stern wave of american and a collision occurred. The Soviets planned to cross by, but lacked the skill.
It was done deliberately, order was to kick them out without opening fire

I miss those Soviet sons of bitches. At least they were an honorable enemy.

I love how it really only seemed to do something to themselves.
Had any Soviet warship ever done the same - entered 7 US miles? Say in Mexican Gulf?
How would have US reacted in such case?
If the Soviet's had an excuse, likely nothing more then scowl at them from a "safe" distance.

"This system was capable of recording data on Soviet defense radars and communications." So it was a US spy ship? Spying is an act of aggression, plain and simple. The sovjet ship had guns....were they really trying to hurt the US ship they could have sunk it. But thanks for the upload, have never seen two ships ram each other before ;)
so you see the merchant ship at the beginning? that ship is a Russian spy ship that is also collecting data. Look at the Kosmonavt Yuri Gagarin, back then only two in the world and they were always in the Pacific and Atlantic ocean. I have close up photos of them I took before this incident. Collecting data from each other is nothing new, it just made us better at hiding stuff
uvb-76.net/2012/11/tracking-ship-kosmonavt-yuri-gagarin.html
yes there was - they weren't fooling anyone. what ship were you on?
I went to the USS Fresno LST 1182 on my AR duty. I thought we had the best bunch of jar heads on board, but I guess I was wrong since you had them :-) but that was 1989-1992 - maybe they changed ships
+Blackbeard doesn't know what a "spy ship" is.
