- Regularly, Russian spy ships, equipped with the most advanced electronic surveillance technologies, approach dangerously close to the American fleet. These strategic maneuvers by Russia, aimed at gathering information about American aircraft carriers laden with advanced weapon systems and strategic data, signify a deeper underlying strategic game. In these tense confrontations, where every detail matters, the US Navy responds with impressive precision: 5,000 sailors swiftly turn off their electronic devices and deploy advanced electronic decoys to ensure safety. What happens on board US Navy ships at that moment is impressive.
What Happens When a Russian Spy Ship Gets Too Close to a U.S. Aircraft Carrier?
Before we go into further details of these encounters and their consequences let’s take a while to get to know the enemy and see what the US Navy is up against. Russian spy ships are a vital part of Russia's naval strategy, primarily focused on intelligence gathering and monitoring global maritime activities. Designed for surveillance rather than combat, their main goal is to collect data on foreign naval movements and capabilities, significantly enhancing Russia's situational awareness at sea. Equipped with advanced electronic surveillance systems, these ships can intercept and analyze various communications, including radio and radar signals, playing a key role in signals intelligence (SIGINT). They also possess electronic warfare (EW) capabilities to disrupt or deceive enemy electronics, using countermeasures to jam enemy radar and communications.
Additionally, these spy ships use sophisticated radar and sonar sensor arrays for enhanced situational awareness, allowing discreet monitoring of naval asset movements. They also have advanced communication systems for secure data transmission and coordination.
The U.S. Navy frequently encounters these Russian vessels, which, as per international maritime law, are allowed to transit through the U.S. economic exclusive zone (EEZ). A notable instance was in January 2023, when a Russian spy ship was spotted about 100 miles off Hawaii. In 2019, a Russian spy ship was reported to be operating unsafely off the U.S. southeastern coast, not using running lights in low visibility and failing to respond to commercial vessels, posing potential safety risks.

It is a comfort to know that our U.S. Navy is doing a magnificent job prrotecting our seas and assisting our Allies as needed, God bless you always! 👍👍👍👍
If US Navy was protecting US shores, we wouldn't have a need for 800 billion plus per annum and we would have free education, medical and zero homelessness! Our infrastructure would allow for bullet trains across the country, our borders would be safe and secure, making opioid addiction a far lesser threat and so on! But our Navy is protecting everyone but US and using obsolete strategy based on super carriers easily targeted by hypersonic missiles and drones! Please, don't tell me that! But,but lasers are faster than anything! Yeah so is street light!
Back in the late 1970's I was serving in the Navy aboard a small frigate heading on my first deployment to the Mediterranean. Due to our junior status we were the last ship to leave Norfolk. Just as we passed the 12 mile limit a Soviet spy trawler headed towards the carrier that we were assigned. Our captain brought us alongside the trawler forcing it to change course away from the carrier. They didn't have a man on deck. The captain announced that we were alongside and told the entire crew what they were and if we had cameras to go out on deck and take pictures. We did. Suddenly there were numerous Soviet sailors on deck covering equipment with tarps. Another couple of minutes later the Soviet trawler changed course again to circle around behind us. Some of the other frigates and destroyers pulled the same routine we had and kept forcing the trawler away from the carrier who was in the process of landing its air wing, which is what the trawler wanted to see, the type and number of aircraft the carrier had aboard for the deployment. I don't think the trawler got within 5 miles of the carrier. But we got LOTS of pictures of their equipment before they covered it. My ship was the USS McCloy FF-1038. The carrier was the USS America CVA-66.
...they get as close, as we allow them to get. X-Navy/Navy Contractor
Cool story. 👍
Wow
You are full of Crap
I was an airdale mechanic, AD, in HC-1 squadron on the USS Franklin D Roosevelt for a Med Cruise...during flight OPS we had a Russian ship try to cut in front of the carrier, and that cannot happen, as a carrier needs a wind over the bow to launch aircraft (25 knots) ... and as the Russian ship started to head to our ship to force us to slow down or stop... a submarine surfaced between us and the Russian ship and it turned away post haste...
The thing you have to remember, for those that have never been in the Navy... A carrier NEVER sails by itself. There is usually a half dozen other escort ships...
God Bless the US Navy!
As a former USAF communications analyst (SIGINT), this was a very interesting video. I served 50 years ago, so the field has gone through vast changes, but certain aspects do not change.
Part of our responsibility was to estimate our adversary’s order of battle: how many troops? What were their specialties? Who did they talk to? What aircraft did they maintain?
Oddly enough, it was often the low-level communications with only minor encryption which provided the answers to such questions. Something as mundane as the amount of toilet paper they received could give us a rough estimate on the number of troops at a particular unit.
That spy ship will Hoover up ANY communications, no matter how trivial they appear to be. In World War II, the famous saying was, “loose lips sink ships.” After 75 years, that saying is still wise advice. Always assume that a spy ship is trailing your convoy and hoping for someone to talk about sensitive information on a non-secure line.
That is their only job - and they have the patience of Job. Never let your guard down.
That’s a easy question to answer you invite the Russian crew to dinner when they get to close
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service sir what ship Were you on
@@leeg4804 I (a woman) served in the Air Force, not the Navy. But, every base I served on had members from the Army, Navy, and Air Force stationed there because intelligence requires coordination with our counterparts in each of the other services.
The submariners were quite a unique group.
I'm a Cold war Navy veteran, who served on aircraft carriers, during the USSR days. Soviet (Russian) ships had to stay the equivalent of 500 yards (5 football fields) away from aircraft carriers, but they didn't. They violated the International sea laws back then, and they are still violating the International sea laws now, and they taught China to do the same thing. They ignored the warnings from aircraft carriers back then, and they are still doing it today. There were a lot of times, the Soviets (Russians) forced us to go into General Courtiers.
Yes, China is a good student of Russia from sea to air!
Well I guess we got to start getting tough, and don't tell me that will start a war This been happening for 60 years This is crazy my brother Was in the navy for 25 years in 3 different aircraft carriers. And what he seeing now Makes him sick.We gotta start growing a pair.
@@Shipspotting_VietnamChina is sitting backup Scooping up all the intelligence The only reason all this is happening is because we are letting them do this it is all done by design. Uncle joe is paying back the ccp. The united states has made china what is china is today.
It will never be a war between US and Russia, since WW2 is a biggest lesson for every country!!! they've already see the outcomes of the war, not benefitting any one!@@Cruiser777
One must remember it's the same on the adversary's side of the pool. It's not once or twice that US has also violated some international procedures, and it will naturally make adversary take actions of defence and offence.
I'm a proud son of a Navy Corpsman-Korean War. Thank you all for Everything you do to keep us FREE!!
Thanks to all military personnel for a job well done!
Spy ships in an identified Unsafe Zone should be given no more then three warning to vacate the Unsafe Zone. If warnings are not heeded, actions should be taken to disable the spy ship's ability to function.
2 warnings, then sunk
The politically motivated rules of engagement turn the Navy into puzzies.
I served during the Cold war, when I served in the Navy aboard aircraft carriers. When Soviet (USSR) ships violated the warnings from the aircraft carriers. 2- F-14 Tomcats or if carriers had F-4's, 2- F-4 Phantoms would be launched with orders to sink Soviet ships in violations.
@@robertboyes2505what utter juvenile PISH ⁉️
@@robertboyes2505 Uh-huh, so what? Drowned any of them ? )) I highly doubt it,
You forgot a couple of small things that the carrier has at their defense. A couple of US Destroyers and a Fast attack submarine that will protect the carrier
Yes, they have frigates and destroyers to protects, all are planed and calculated!
Veraltet und Nutzlos
You don't need to sink the carrier to make it useless, damaged deck makes it and the fleet have to return to the port for repairs! Global Thermonuclear war as retaliation is the only security that works in real conflict!
EXAcTLY..this type of warship is out and useless..but i want to say that im pitty the trups on such a carrier..war is a useless stuff too but too less people realize it@@pashapasovski5860
Great strategy!@@pashapasovski5860
It's impossible for any Russian ship or any foreign ship to get closer to a US aircraft carrier. An aircraft carrier never travels alone. It is accompanied by destroyers and frigates. So they have to get closer to accompanying ships first and no Russian ship will dare move closer to a US destroyer.
Well, the Chinese certainly have no problem!
That is not true because a Swedish sub got in close to a US aircraft carrier in a war game and the carrier didn't know it was there the Swedish crew took a picture of the carrier
I miss the old days. There was always a Soviet spy ship in our wake. (CV-60). They always picked up our dumped trash. Once they asked us to help a very sick shipmate. Acute appendicitis. It was with joy and utmost respect we helped a sick fellow sailor and exchanged smokes and stories. The men of that ship were the spine of Russia and I hope they remember this wonderful moment.
Russia collects and analyzes everything!!
The people on the front lines are usually the ones with the least interest in fighting. Especially in the oceans, they are all subject to international maritime law, and that basically invalidates their flag nations unless at war, and even then they try to save as many people as possible so the other side will do the same.
Yes, you are correct!@@grege8318
As for possible problems if a spy ship gets too close and the carrier doesn't notice it--I see a major problem would be not having sailors shut down their personal electronics. Keep up the good work.
If a carrier doesn’t “see a Russian spy ship” within a hundred nautical miles of it when sailing, then they have much BIGGER problems on their hands than stupid cell phones that don’t work out at sea…. Trust that a carrier group detects EVERYTHING on the water and in the air for more than a hundred miles…
It's either the Russian spy ships or the Russian "Bears" who loved to play tag with us... I used to be on an aircraft carrier the USS America CV-66 in S-2 Div back in 1982-1984 I was a MS3
Super thanks may God Almighty protect you and your colleagues Amen Shalom 🙏

I was in westpac in 70 to 73. We were routinely followed by Russian “trawlers”. Once one of the idiots got right in front of us while we were doing an unrep. We had to do an emergency breakaway as the trawler went between us and the carrier. We were about 125ft to 150ft apart when this happened.
Hi Jim. My dad was out there too in 69-70 as Comdesron 25, Capt. D.C. Redgrave 3rd.
I'm a cold war Navy vet myself and Robert is right. I served on FDR and America and those Russians came up on us at night and on came the lights from both ships. We gave them a parting gift. We went to the bow of our ship and threw in the cargo net jeans, cigs, candy, playboys and so on. You should have seen those Russians running for the net when we dropped it on their bow. Funny old sea story.
In this channel, " Russia" is always the aggressor 😂😂
Thank you for flying the Canadian flag and keeping our waters safe
This happened to my command on the '86 - '87 Med cruise. We had a Soviet ship following us for a while. Basically trying to inspect our trash. Our C.O. got tired of that shit. So he turned the ship 180 and headed straight for her. That was the last time we saw that Soviet ship. LOL
Haha, they just want to see the trash!!!
Jesus protect our military men and women in Jesus name I pray Amen 🙏
Jesus has nothing to do with it you're giving all the credit to your Jesus
@scruggsbuster9458 you don't know Jesus as your Savior I hope you do
A great explanation of the fleet vessels. Thank you for sharing this information and video. See you on the next! 😊
I was on two carriers around fifty years ago. The USS Franklin D Roosevelt CV 42 and the USS Constellation CVA 64.
My thoughts? They seem to have forgotten the single most interesting response to a Russian ship too close to a carrier. You fire one off the bow. The water column shoots high into the air and comes pouring down over the Russian ship as they move through it... with the rudder going hard over to increase distance as fast as possible. Been there.
I like to thank the men and women of the United States military. God bless you and thank you for your service.🇺🇸.
Watching from Brampton, Ontario, Canada ❤❤❤❤❤
I believe our military forces, air and naval, should give a single warning to any hostile actor that operates in an unsafe manner. After that they should actively engage to disable the hostile actor's equipment and ensure the safety of those operating those systems. But in no way should the US military continue to allow hostile foreign military actors interfere or harass the operations of the movement of US military equipment in international Air space and waters.
Just another one who loves the sound of his own voice took too long to get to main story
Minute 7:03. That's a Kirov class. I remember that profile from when the Russians lost a nuclear sub in the Atlantic back in the 80's (86 or 87?). They sent half the fleet down to protect it. (It was already on the bottom, unless you're a Tom Clancy enthusiast, in which case it made it's way to Norfolk)
In the late '60s when I joined VS-24 as a new Aviator we sailed shorty thereafter aboard the USS Randolf (CVS-15) for a scheduled 3 month cruise to the Med. Shortly after crossing our boundary we were joined by a Russian Trawler. They used them in those days, I guess to "fool" us into thinking they were a harmless fishing vessel. No Dice. They gave it away at times. Later while in the Med were were joined by a Russian Cruiser who maintained the cruiser position on our formation (we did not have a U.S. Cruiser with us). That gave away the information that they knew our tactical formations.
Later we detected a Russian Whisky Class submarine that was shadowing our fleet. We got some real world aviation experience in tracking the sub. The whiskey class was similar to our WWII submarines in capability.
Can our aircraft carriers defend themselves against hypersonic missiles?????????????????
The real question innit and the answer is rah, rah, rah, lol.
Can THEIR aircraft carriers defend themselves from ours?
They should watch one of your Videos, they won't learn a thing!
I’m a sailor spent time in the seventh fleet in the 60s. The NVA tried to close in on damaged Navy ships or Air craft. We drove over a couple junks, the rest moved back. I forget the McCain disaster but there was many junks at that event.
Wow, great sharing! Thanks!
Grew up in Havre de Grace, Maryland - Right next to Aberdeen, and Aberdeen Proving Grounds (APG). It was modestly common for Russian 'Trawlers' to transit the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, which would dump them into the Susquehanna river and Chesapeake Bay just north of APG. Exiting the canal, these 'trawlers' would suddenly grow a forest of antennae as they headed south down the bay, passing APG. It was always a bit amusing to see them - They were desperately trying to intercept telemetry on the various testing programs ongoing. The joke was on them - At that time, APG used hard-wired data transmission, and their efforts were wasted.
Went to the old RM "A" School in Bainbridge!
@@binksterb used to crawl all over the old base, after it was effectively abandoned. Shame what a ruin it became. The Commandant's quarters are still visible from across the river.
Thanks 👍😊
If my missiles can hit you you're too close..
I think there should be a little bit more of a change on that they should not be allowed in the US. The Russian ships shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near US.
We also gained intelligence on there capabilities!
This vid comes across as a single aircraft carrier against a AGI. Aircraft carriers are never alone, not even in drydock or pier side.
Today the US ship will run away to a safe place.
I know one thing those Russian spy ships never run out of. Vodka.
Nautical speed, air speed, submerged depth, buoyant force, standards can be set for U.S. Navy sailors and airmen’s defensive posture. The ocean is not like a landlocked parking lot where taking one’s foot off the gas has a dramatic change in motion.
When I was aboard the USS Hancock on Yankee Station during the Vietnam War '70 - '71, Russian Trawlers would try to get close to the Carrier but had no success one of the DDG's would come in between the Trawler and the ship thus cutting them off. This happened a number of times. The Russian had some kind of electronic snooping equipment on board, I was told
When in Vietnam aboard a Carrier, we had a Russian spy ship getting to close to us so when the returning pilots were coming back from a bomb run and had hung ordinance they use to shake their aircraft close to those Russian ships to drop the bombs that were hung up. Needless to say that ship then kept it's distance.
According to the picture showing a Foreign Warship getting so close to an American Air Craft carrier or any American Warship should not be tolerated. In my opinion American Warships should protect themselves without fail.
In 1973 we had a Russian trawler try to get between us and an oiler to try and disrupt our carrier from getting fuel. It is amazing what the affect of the afterburners of an F4 phantom will have on the crew of a little boat when the afterburners get lit in a vertical climb right over deck of the boat!!!
The trawler lost lost of wiring from its antennas and some other stuff was blown off the deck they moved away quickly
I think let every country sail where-ever they want to sail, but keep an eye out on those ships getting close to underwater infrastructure. Like recently some Russian 'research' vessel was just bobbing in the North Sea. Transiting is fine, staying still is not. There is vital underwater infrastructure (energy cables, internet cables, gas pipes etc) there that could be sabotaged.
I have subscribed and I will join extremely soon
As one of the US allies (Australia) I thank you all.
The US should make an underwater drone equipped with a drill that attaches to the Russian ships hull. It only drills as the ship moves then packs C4 in the hole and maybe a little extra on the outside of the hull with a timed detonator to go off when the Russian ship has forgotten about the carrier. Darn, must have hit a mine!
Excellent! God bless the United States of America.
With the high cost of ammo no warning shots should be given.
God Bless the U.S.A.
I don’t particularly like the current proximity limits but it keeps our US Navy on their toes. We can handle this.
All ships should be aware they will attack hostile ships or spy ships who come within 100 miles of the warning ship after giving warnings !
Doing a. Great job..
A lot of words. Not much meaning.
Isn't demonstrating your countermeasures, giving them info? Russia now knows what they have to overcome.
Dispit all the protection an aircraft carrier has to protect it ,you single handedly defeated it with your thumbnail !
very informative,an exRN Suybmarine.
The comments were more informational than this ChatGPI written swill
You have pointed out the weakness of the Russian system. They are still using ships to gather information. I would think that Satellites could do most of this heavy lifting, then specialized Aircraft would do the rest. From a U2 to a 737 loaded with electronic equipment. Because we all know that Russian ships do not have aircover and therefore they are sitting ducks.
totally necessary as long as it is recorded and diagnosed accurately.
Does ruzzia actually have a navy that makes sense anymore? If planes are falling out of the skies, how about navy subs and ships?
No cases of subs or ships falling out of the sky have been reported thus far. 😁
Ya ya ya, geeze
OpSec has turned into a nightmare with all the personal electronic devices. Policing this is an ongoing complicated issue. Everyone has a cell phone/smart phone and this has become a balance between Crew Morale and Mission Security.
When you think you know we makes the next round.
"What Happens When a Russian SPY SHIP Gets Too Close to a US Aircraft Carrier?"
It becomes a submarine...
Nothings getting too close to a carrier in a battle group at sea. it would be sunk so fast.
Mantap👌👍✊
4 years on board USS HANCOCK CVA19, the fighting Hanna! Vietnam. Evacuated Saigon, weird times
Let's just tell Russia more about our air craft carriers. Ding dong.
I think we should continue to and maintain a presence that says we are a dominate superpower and military might, regardless of world opinion. We should continue to be a voice for justice and ethics for other nations that are prone to evil and oppression to their people or their neighbors. We should also continue to be a voice as a nation that fears God and His Son Jesus. The quarter still says in God we trust, also some of our greatest leaders and founding fathers were God fearing not “a god” but the living God. Then God will bless us
Ojojoj Best Wish from Peter Sandstedt in sweden wish you al a greate evening and time Best from Peter 😅😅🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
When I was in the US Navy the then Soviet Union deployed intelligence gathering "fishing" trawlers. Electronic signature aside they were fairly obvious because they were covered with antennas and no high-lines nor nets in the water and only minimally visible on deck.
лучше вспомнить что было в 2015, когда USS John Paul Jones приблизился к российским берегам. а было следующее - на берег выехала одинокая машинка и включила радар. экипаж JPL тут же запустил противоракетный маневр и быстро свалил в Европу.
а все потому что эта РЛС работала в составе мощнейшего комплекса Бастион снаряженного гиперзвуковыми ракетами Onyx.
ни один авианосец теперь не осмеливается приближаться к российским берегам, США даже приказали Турции не пускать американские корабли в черное море т.к СУ-35 с ракетами Кинжал смогут быстро пустить авианосцы на дно
I doubt it could ever get that close without getting blown out of the water
EBay Stratton our country Blown Away
Who says Russia is the enemy?
Violation of International Law should be amended by charter members.
I still remember the spy ship that followed our amphibious group, the Yupiter, it had what looks like an enormous egg near the stern of the ship
Ain't no Country that crazy I believe the Navy would see them first especially the helicopters constantly patrolling and scanning the horizon
Extremely interesting and comforting to those of us that have family on ACC’s. However, Seems like a lot of military info to make available for the world. How does this
Not comprise safety or make out capabilities available to our enemies?
Jamming is not spying. It is active electronic warfare.
Go Navy all day everyday
With this video they don’t need spy ships, they just need a CZcams account lol
I believe redundancy is a big category in the United States Navy, Air Force Marines army do you name it? This is why we are the only superpower in the world before anybody even has a chance to point something out as it’s taken care of. That’s why we’re good at what we do. And to those people out there is a think that they can take on the United States of America. You might want to think twice about that.
Extraterestrial vehicles can dive into the ocean, they oddly make no splash, and can do at least 70 knots underwater. This makes them a serious risk, that we have little idea how to deal with. The USAF TR-3B engineered from alein tech can't do these water transitions.
Watch !
I thk we need Stricter Laws that’s too close for comfort but then again wat do I know about the Navy and defenses lol 😂
Just one thing other than great video. Russia has no rules, so thinking they do is a dream
Back in the 1970's we were in the Indian ocean and a Russian missile frigate was in the distance cruising with our carrier the USS Constellation. We were notified they were taking pictures of us so obliged by giving them the "Moon " from the flight deck. The air boss told us to stop, it was not good for international relations.
Ahem, clear as mud! So now you know???
❤ love you
Should you have divulged these precise informations?
We feed them a steady diet of Counterint and SigInt data to deceive, overwhelm and manipulate their snooping systems. Prior Snoopy Team Member.
How old is this information? Turning off electrical devices will never stop stealing information. We need robust decoys and jamming systems to deter intruders.
If I can watch this in Australia, can’t the Russians watch this too…..and know exactly what the US Navy is about?
I need help to get to that point
There should be stricter controls.
