Soviet warships being watched in Gulf

TUE 11/05/1985 HOUSTON CHRONICLE

A U.S. Navy vessel is closely monitoring the movements of two Soviet warships that entered the Gulf of Mexico and came within 40 miles of the Texas coast, the U.S. Navy said.

The USS Taylor, American guidedmissile frigate, has been tracking the Soviet ships - a guided-missile destroyer and a guided-missile frigate - since they left Havana Thursday, said Lt. Cmdr. Craig Quigley, a Navy spokesman in Norfolk, Va.

The Taylor is always "within visual range" of the Soviet vessels

Frigate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A frigate is any of several types of warship, the term having been used for ships of various sizes and roles over the last few centuries.


Contemporary

Guided-missile role

From the 1950s to the 1970s, the United States Navy commissioned ships classed as guided missile frigates which were actually anti-aircraft warfare cruisers built on destroyer-style hulls. Some of these ships—the Bainbridge, Truxtun, California and Virginia classes—were nuclear-powered. These "frigates" were roughly mid-way in size between cruisers and destroyers.


Littoral Combat Ship (LCS)


By 2019, all Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates in the United States Navy were to be replaced by the LCS.

The Taylor is always "within visual range" of the Soviet vessels that were last reported about 100 miles southwest of Tampa, Fla., and moving in a southeasterly direction, possibly toward Cuba, said Quigley.

However, there was no way to determine whether the Soviet warships were preparing to leave the Gulf and return to Havana. "They can always change rudder at a moment's notice," he said.

The destroyer and frigate - part of a larger group of four Soviet ships that entered the Caribbean in September - entered the Gulf Thursday, Quigley said.

U.S. blasts 5 Iranian targets

Houston Chronicle News Services

MON 04/18/1988 HOUSTON CHRONICLE

MANAMA, Bahrain - The U.S. Navy today destroyed two offshore Iranian oil platforms, sank a defending Iranian patrol boat and bombed two Iranian frigates. Iran attacked oil facilities off Sharjah and fired on at least two U.S. vessels.

The U.S. attack on the Persian Gulf oil platforms came in retaliation for a mine explosion that tore a hole in a U.S. frigate last week, injuring 10 crewmen.

"We aim to deter further Iranian aggression - not provoke it," President Reagan said. "They must know that we will protect our ships, and if they threaten us, they'll pay a price."

Official estimates of the toll from today's fighting changed through the day, but Reagan stated without elaboration that at least five Iranian vessels of various sizes - but no U.S. ones - had been damaged.

"Following the destruction of the two Iranian military platforms, whose personnel had evacuated after our warning, several Iran naval vessels and small boats attempted to engage our ships and aircraft," Reagan said.

"Three Iranian naval vessels and at least two small boats were sunk or very severely damaged," he added.

Also today, Iran said the United States had entered the Iran-Iraq war, charging U.S. helicopters supported an Iraqi land offensive in the Faw Peninsula. The Pentagon dismissed the charge, saying no U.S. military forces have been involved with Iraqi units.

The White House said three U.S. warships ships blasted each Iranian platform. No U.S. casualties were reported in the attacks, and the Iranians fled prior to the shelling, the White House said.

Iran said a number of oil workers aboard the two platforms were killed or injured. It gave no details.

Defense Secretary Frank C. Carlucci said a U.S. helicopter also was fired upon during the raid but was not hit.

One U.S. warship fired missiles at two approaching Iranian jet fighters, but the fighters reversed course; it was unclear whether they were hit, Carlucci said.

He said an Iranian patrol boat fired on the U.S. cruiser Wainwright, which took part in the attack on one of the platforms. The Wainwright was not hit.

Hunt For Red October


You ever do this before?
Once. On a calm day... off Hawaii.
The pilot will have a difficult time keeping steady.
Don't take chances getting grounded.
Keep that rod in front of you.
In air like this,
the rotors will put out enough static electricity
to light up Chicago.
That's why I joined the Navy.

Can I get you anything, sir?
No, thank you very much.
If you try and get sleep,
the flight will go faster.
I can never sleep on a plane.
Turbulence.
Pardon?
Turbulence...
Solar radiation heats the Earth's crust,
warm air rises, cold airs descends.
Turbulence. I don't like that.
Oh. Well, try to sleep anyway.

a scenario where a U.S. Navy Sea Hawk helicopter would transport a nuclear weapon into Seattle and drop it off on the roof of the tallest building in downtown Seattle. I pondered over the group of U.S. Marines that would stay with the weapon and guard it on the rooftop and I wondered whether they would even know what they were protecting. I pondered over whether they were given a story that they were to protect until someone else showed up but that was a false cover story because it was going to explode while they were there next to it. I pondered over why the helicopter pilot would even be given time to fly away to safety.

JOURNAL ARCHIVE: 02/27/09 8:54 AM
Another scenario I pondered featured a nuclear weapon on the roof of the tallest building in downtown Bellevue too. I also pondered at another time a scenario where someone would bring me my U.S. Navy uniform for my rank as Fleet Admiral and then I would get dressed in it and I would walk to downtown to some destination I would become aware of in the future and I would know specific details such as security codes and I would go into a building and take the elevator to the roof or where ever the nuclear weapon was located in that top of that tallest building and I would trigger that nuclear weapon.

JOURNAL ARCHIVE: 02/27/09 8:57 AM
I found myselft pondering whether I would stand facing the nuclear weapon before it exploded or if I would turn my back to it. I think I would face it.

D'oh! I guess I should have seen that coming last night. They aren't giving away for free the television series "The Last Ship." They only gave away for free the premiere episode on tntdrama.com. The second episode requires cable television authorization to view it. I don't have cable television so I'm not watching it.
