The vaunted U.S. military colossus is "the most powerful military the world has ever known."
So we are told as Washington continues to bully its way through the world. The Pentagon has divided the world into nine "commands" as if Washington owns the world and everything in it. The United States Supreme Court renders judgements on foreign nations as if they are provinces in Washington's empire. Really? Such chutzpah!
The Ruskies have quietly been putting Washington on notice that it is not the Unipower. Here is an example from the Black Sea — Russia's bathtub:

| USS Donald Cook on the Black Sea 10 April 2014 |
The US destroyer is equipped with the most recent Aegis Combat System. It is an integrated naval weapons systems which can link together the missile defense systems of all vessels embedded within the same network, so as to ensure the detection, tracking and destruction of hundreds of targets at the same time. In addition, the USS Donald Cook is equipped with 4 large radars, whose power is comparable to that of several stations. For protection, it carries more than fifty anti-aircraft missiles of various types.
Meanwhile, the Russian Su-24 that buzzed the USS Donald Cook carried neither bombs nor missiles but only a basket mounted under the fuselage, which, according to the Russian newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta [2], contained a Russian electronic warfare device called Khibiny.
As the Russian jet approached the US vessel, the electronic device disabled all radars, control circuits, systems, information transmission, etc. on board the US destroyer. In other words, the all-powerful Aegis system, now hooked up - or about to be - with the defense systems installed on NATO’s most modern ships was shut down, as turning off the TV set with the remote control.
The Russian Su-24 then simulated a missile attack against the USS Donald Cook, which was left literally deaf and blind. As if carrying out a training exercise, the Russian aircraft - unarmed - repeated the same maneuver 12 times before flying away.
After that, the 4th generation destroyer immediately set sail towards a port in Romania.

American sources have reported the Ruskies have some sort of cloaking technology. It was used recently in Syria where a no fly zone was created by the Russians. When politely warned by a Russian jet, a squadron of Israelis turned tail and flew home.
Goodby to "the most powerful military the world has ever known." Good riddance. Goodby to the Unipower.
Someday soon, China may foreclose and repossess the U.S. Navy.
