US destroyer collides with merchant ship off Singapore.
A US guided-missile destroyer, the USS John S. McCain, has “sustained damaged” after collision with a merchant vessel while on a routine port visit to Singapore, the US Navy has said.
Lmao they have crashes every fucking week, they don't need to go to War with NK, they kill themselves.
Not difficult when the ship is named after a walking tumor.
Ryan Butler
inb4 it was a female captain

>(((merchant))) ship
one down, many to go.
Charles Peterson
us navy has been a fucking embarrassment lately crashing ships left and right. Imagine how they would fair in a real war if they can't even avoid fucking merchant ships on routine planned missions. Jesus christ we're fucked in a ground war. Good thing the nukes still work.

How the fuck is this book not mandatory reading for the US Navy by now?
this is bad. east asia has a lot of cargo ships. they now have developed a taste for U.S naval hardware. our only hope is some bullshit war on the other side of the planet to get our ships our of harms way

would you bet you're life on 80's era computers not working when that button gets pressed. They might have to give the computers a good kick to get them to boot up but if trumpo gave the order those nukes would fly.

first review on amazon >As the father of two teenagers, I found this book invaluable. I'm sure other parents here can empathize when I say I shudder at the thought of the increasing presence of huge ships in the lives my children. I certainly remember the strain I caused so long ago for my own parents when I began experimenting with huge ships. The long inter-continental voyages that kept my mom and dad up all night with worry. Don't even get me started on the international protocols when transporting perishable cargo. To think, I was even younger than my kids are now! huge ships are everywhere and it doesn't help that the tv and movies make huge ships seem glamorous and cool. This book helped me really approach the subject of huge ships with my kids in an honest and non judgmental way. Because of the insights this book provided, I can sleep a little better and cope with the reality that I can't always be there to protect my kids from huge ships, especially as they become adults. I'm confident that my teens, when confronted by a huge ship, are much better prepared to make wiser decisions than I did. At the very least my children certainly know that they can always come to me if they have any concerns, questions or just need my support when it comes to the topic of huge ships.

americanboating.org/bigger_on_the_water.asp >Law of Gross Tonnage The law, which is more common sense then explicitly written in the code, goes like this: "The heavier vessel always has the right-of-way." hmmm...

i hope so

I truly hope you don't believe this ship is named after the neocuck McCain.
Angel Flores
Wait it was the fucking 7th fleet again?

This is probably the product of "diversity."

It collided with an Oil Tanker Pic Related Alnic MC

Not only the same fleet but the same Destroyer Squadron.
Bentley Reyes
>name a ship after John McCain >be surprised when it crashes
Levi Reed

Oliver Bell
We let women into the military and then we act surprised when they start crashing all the ships and vehicles and helicopters.
Hudson Russell
Philippine national shipping registry confirms the captain of the merchant vessel was one S. Hyde, whereabouts following collision unknown
Andrew Peterson
at least it didn't surrender intel to the other ship
Noah Hernandez
lol that's great. any person or anything with the treacherous mccain name attached to it deserves to get wrecked, shat upon and completely wiped out of existence
Jordan Bell
who's got a news stream.. this is fucking unbelievable..
Nathaniel Butler
The McCains have a habit of crashing shit.
Austin Moore
what are the odds these merchant ships are getting in the way to be hit on purpose in some ruse to sue the USA for gibsmedats or something even more sinister?
Brandon Price
These aren't 'collisions'. They are attacks on American warships, but shit's so hot right now they can't admit to it cuz they'd be forced to blow some shit up...
Jose Torres
Obviously not a collision, they had to name it like that so it don't escalate into something worse
Ryder Peterson
Alright guys I think I've fixed their logo for them.
Sunk two friendly ships, one Australian one US with 182 deaths, never fired a shot at an enemy, and when it was scrapped it was secretly used to train the Chinese in aircraft carrier design
Cameron Hall
Two collisions in 5 years as opposed to two collisions in 5 weeks.
David Thomas
Two questions: 1.) What is the percentage of non-whites on the ship? 2.) Is the ship commanded by a woman?
Cooper Long
Our diversity is our strength!!!
Joshua Sullivan
100% THIS
Owen Hernandez
Is it oil tanker or cargo fleet ? RT says oil tanker, imagine if they created oil spill.
Lincoln Martinez
anyone have the photos of the command triad? Are they diverse? what about their navigation officer. What a joke.
Matthew James
any autistic sources?
Thomas Sanchez
Russia is hacking your systems, America. Your ships are being electronically blindfolded, trajectories manipulated. And the best part - no proof. The invisible hand of Putin continues to fuck around with the world.
Jayden Bell
haha both the CO and XO are named Sanchez and the CMC is a nigger named Walker. SO DIVERSE
Kevin Cox
>americans put spics and niggers in position of power HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA CANT FUCKING WAIT TILL NORKS BTFO US SPICS
Eli Foster
If you call you just a message that says "whoops ur kids are dead lmao"
Ian Morgan
Is that normal procedure or an indication there could be more deaths?
Wyatt Evans
RAMMING SPEED BOYS
Sebastian Myers
They most likely would not do that if it was just a fender bender.
Nolan Evans
Its Israel not Russia
Austin Walker
> they did that so that its much easier to go ahead and send out a chaplain to tell you your kid died because of political correctness running the ship
Logan James

It's from the same squadron (Destroyer Squadron 15 of the 7th Fleet) as the Fitzgerald. There're some serious problems with the US Navy right now.
Jace Hernandez

All ships in that squadron and possibly fleet are compromised

Looks like the merchant is the fuckup this time.
Justin Morris
fucking kek >where the fucking nips bob, lets get em champ
Julian Mitchell
I suspect Russia.
It was Russia behind some other things like Katyn Forest massacre. Heck maybe even the USS Liberty.
Russia is our strategic adversary and, I suspect, supports North Korea which we are trying to disarm.
Brayden Harris
Not according to the law
Andrew Flores
This is all part of a capitalist plot, you'll see.
Jeremiah Phillips
>fair
Dylan Thomas
Another one? Those captions can't drive a ship. What's wrong with them? They must be drunk with power.
Chase Price
That's not possible. The oil tanker is a lumbering beast. Even if it fucks up, it must be the job of the destroyer's crew to dart out of the way, and easy if their ship is working properly at all.
Jace Jones
underrated
Gabriel Lopez
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
2 destroyers in 3 months.
Is this a sign that Mccain will die tomorrow during the eclipse?
Liam Bailey
Listen you subversive kike. I know what's going on. It was Israel.
Colton Thomas
>a merchant vessel Payday
Jack Bailey
Multiple choppers going down, planes, ships crashing... Some country has infected our military hardware with some kill switch and they're testing it.
Wyatt Adams
That got me.
Isaac Richardson
because it just couldn't possibly be that your armed forces employ people who are completely incompetent
Benjamin Hughes
>what is frostbite, something Aussies know nothing about >casualties != deaths Pretty sure they hit some mines and booby traps too.
Ryder Perez
this wouldn't be the first time McCain has been fucked by a merchant
Kayden Stewart
Not just the destroyers:
>This marked the fourth mishap for U.S. Navy ships in the Pacific since February. >Aside from the USS McCain and USS Fitgerald incidents, the Navy crusier USS Antietam ran aground dumping over 1,000 gallons of oil in Tokyo Bay in Februray. In May, another cruiser, USS Lake Champlain, hit a South Korean fishing vessel.
