Navy is fed up with ballistic missile defense patrols

[Manonthestreet]

Chief of Naval Operations Adm. John Richardson said in no uncertain terms on June 12 that he wants the Navy off the tether of ballistic missile defense patrols, a mission that has put a growing strain on the Navy’s hard-worn surface combatants, and the duty shifted towards more shore-based infrastructure.

“Right now, as we speak, I have six multi-mission, very sophisticated, dynamic cruisers and destroyers ― six of them are on ballistic missile defense duty at sea,” Richardson said during his address at the U.S. Naval War College’s Current Strategy Forum. “And if you know a little bit about this business you know that geometry is a tyrant.

Makes sense...Japan moving to Aegis ashore systems and probably more economical in long run

Aegis Ashore works for missiles on decent. We need ship based systems to hit them on ascent, or when launched from mobile platforms

Mobile platform can avoid your ships as well...or if they wanted try to take them out before launch......

How?

ummmm...….. go where you aren't and your shot is degraded......or and modern sub has good chance of overwhelming one ships defense....throw in hypersonic missiles...and you need escorts ships or unmanned surface drones to form perimeter and ad firepower

Oh, please! You have no clue as to the tripe you are putting out. You are confusing two completely things.

Ballistic missile defense is for the US, not for that ship!

What modern sub are you talking about overwhelming the ship's defenses? Escort ships? Surface drones?

What does that have to do with ballistic missile defense?

You cant defend if you are sitting on the bottom can ya

These ships are positioned in the middle of the ocean so they can intercept a missile during the boost phase. They are not encountering a foreign battle group while performing this mission.

Just who do you think is going to take them out?

Yeah, who has an attack sub that can handle one of our Aegis destroyers?

Unless you served in the Navy, and can understand the big picture, why not stick to a familiar topic and don't pontificate?

Well with them popping up in our carrier groups undetected recently I would say most anyone with a good crew would have a shot at it......

Not buying it. I am on about 10 different Army and Navy pages. You have a link I assume.?

Hey dumbass, your first article is over a decade old. Didn't anyone ever teach you how to read?

The second article calls the USS Ronald Reagan a cruiser, and the Reagan has been homeported in Japan for 3 years now. That claim is 13 years old.

I didn't read the comments because the article itself was stupid. Torpedoes do not cause a vacuum underwater causing the keels of ships to break. The writer is clueless.

Yeah so....we've still haven't replaced carrier asw and seems we can't even sail our ships proficiently which then leads to question how well can we fight them. For being on so many many mil sites you seem real uninformed and unimaginative.
