The McCain is equipped with the Aegis missile defense system, which has been touted as a possible counter to any North Korean missile launch. If it is out of action after Monday's collision, it would be at least the second of 10 Aegis warships based in Japan to be unavailable for deployment.

How in the hell are so many of our ships getting in collisions these days at all? Isn't aegis enough to prevent anything bigger than a seagull from getting within range of our ships without getting shredded? How are things like tankers "sneaking up" on our ships. I can kind of understand how something like the Cole incident happened where it was a tiny rubber dingy filled with explosives, but I've been sailing in the Cape many times and you can see the "Toyota hauler" coming from miles away day or night. How are our warships colliding with massive civilian ships at all? --- http://i.imgur.com/4fmtLFt.gif http://s1.zetaboards.com/sba/ ~there's always free cheese in a mousetrap. ...

Exactly, either we have some super incompetent people controlling these warships or someone is directly interfering with them. If they were random ships that be one thing, but our Aegis ships? I see a pattern here and i hope our military notices it and puts a stop to it. --- i7-5820K 3.3GHz, Asus X99-DELUXE, Corsair H110i GTX, 850 EVO 1TB, EVGA GTX 970 4GB FTW ACX2.0, Corsair 760T, EVGA 850W, Orion Spark, Proteus Core, Benq BL3200PT ...
