[19:46:17] <SunTzuWarmaster> Can we talk Russian submarines?
[19:47:18] <SunTzuWarmaster> Anyone want to comment on why a boat with a total crew of 25 had 14 people die in a fire? And how 7 of them had a rank high enough to command it?
[19:47:19] <SunTzuWarmaster> wtf?
[19:49:16] <AndyTheAbsurd> On the "14 out of 25 died": fire + enclosed space with no escape = SUPER bad news
[19:49:28] <AndyTheAbsurd> (plus I guess Russians are bad at fire suppression?)
[19:49:52] <SunTzuWarmaster> hard to stop a fire on a submarine
[19:49:55] <SunTzuWarmaster> very hard
[19:51:38] <SunTzuWarmaster> among other things - imagine being in a enclosed space/room which is on fire. https://www.youtube.com You have ~10 seconds to grab your fire gear - otherwise you will a) have no oxygen left and b) be in the dark
[19:51:39] <upstart> ^ 03Christmas tree fires can turn devastating and deadly within seconds
[19:52:07] <SunTzuWarmaster> obviously you can hold your breath for a minute or two (but good luck finding your fire gear and putting it on correctly in the dark)
[19:52:07] <Sulla> well
[19:52:24] <AndyTheAbsurd> And you're always going to have multiple people on a military vessel who are capable of commanding it - the captain has to sleep sometimes, so there's got to be someone who can make decisions in his stead (including the decision of "this is above my pay grade, time to wake the captain up")
[19:52:24] <Sulla> we can talk about the /pol/ conspiracy from trying to decode skykings and various CIA repeater twitter accoutns
[19:52:41] <SunTzuWarmaster> heh
[19:53:06] <SunTzuWarmaster> (at least) 7 captains on a boat of 25 is strange
[19:53:25] <AndyTheAbsurd> I've never been in the military at all, so I wouldn't know.
[19:53:38] <SunTzuWarmaster> that number would typically be closer to "one"
[19:53:49] <Sulla> The claim from /pol/ is that something happened in the aleutian islands between a US and Russian sub. US sub might have fired on an unknown vessel that turned out to be Russian. Timing would also explain the sudden return of Pence to the WH followed by Putin meeting his war ministers and the EU doing the same
[19:53:52] <SunTzuWarmaster> and might be expanded to "two" (CO and XO)
[19:54:35] <SunTzuWarmaster> that is very likely an incorrect claim
[19:54:49] <Sulla> I did mention it came from /pol/
[19:55:32] <SunTzuWarmaster> the Losharik is only 60m in length
[19:55:47] <Sulla> Oh thats right, its the sub that goes under a sub
[19:55:54] <SunTzuWarmaster> the Mk-48 torpedo is 6m in length
[19:56:22] <Sulla> Maybe Cthulhu?
[19:56:27] <Sulla> "you'll find out in a few weeks"
[19:56:28] <SunTzuWarmaster> like - if the 6m explosive hit the 60m boat, there wouldn't be "a fire"
[19:56:42] <SunTzuWarmaster> it would be "sunken"
[19:56:56] <Sulla> good poitn
[19:58:37] <SunTzuWarmaster> this is a mk-48 sinking a battleship - https://www.navytimes.com
[19:58:39] <upstart> ^ 03This is what it looks like when an MK-48 torpedo breaks your keel
[20:01:02] <SunTzuWarmaster> it is designed to sink a destroyer (~150m long)
[20:01:16] <SunTzuWarmaster> 60m submersible - really doesn't stand a chance

[20:13:14] <Sulla> Ships seem kind of pointless at this point except for force projection against countries without ships
[20:31:22] <Deucalion> Weeelll.... kinda. Except if another country is using their ships to disrupt international shipping lanes way offshore or lay claim to sea rights they have no right too (in your estimation) - then cruising into town with bigger better aggro ships sends the message to back off without actually having to sink anything, cause an incident or accidentally sparking WW3. Mostly willy waving of course.
[20:32:43] <Deucalion> Oh and they cost a lot to build which is more defense budget gravy for the politicos to dish out in their regions when election time comes around.
[20:35:28] <Deucalion> I'd rather countries are somewhat diplomatically willy waving by looming into sight in big ass ship of the day than just blowing the offending other nation ship out of the water by whatever means.
[20:40:59] <Deucalion> Ref a US boat firing on an unknown vessel.... then only later finding out it's Russian.... sounds like utter bollocks theory to me. Boats of any nation don't just go about the place randomly sinking unknown vessels.
[20:43:05] <Deucalion> Well... unless said unknown vessel was randomly throwing depth charges in the boat's direction or deploying other measures against it - in which case I'd think the M.O. would be to GTFO until you ID it - not just sink it :D
[20:43:34] <pinchy> muh force projection
[20:46:34] <Deucalion> To what end?
[21:23:12] <Sulla> To me they just seem more expensive than its worth
[21:23:48] <Sulla> Abe told Trump he wants to have us build for them the worlds second most powerful fleet, so they can have greater force projection than China in 2030
[21:24:32] <Sulla> Problem is you are sinking a lot of money into something that is easier to lose
[21:24:52] <Sulla> If China decided to full on block shipping, we could probably get away with sinking their ships without sparking a war
[21:25:23] <Sulla> To that same end, if the Chinese or Russians sank a US destroyer for blocking shipping lanes. Would the US be willing to go to war over that?
[21:25:41] <Sulla> i can see the media and people raging over it, but when your next step is a nuclear exchange it is a non-starter
[21:26:12] <Sulla> Although I guess if they ARE afraid you will start an exchange over one ship, you can project force well
