We are just seeing an increasing level of incompetence within Western militaries. We are reaching Looney Tunes levels now. Incidents like these are only going to embolden countries opposed to the ZOG system.
Quite frankly, Western naval power has been rendered totally obsolete with the development of hypersonic missiles and drone warfare. These warships are using missiles worth millions of dollars to shoot down cheap drones and are sitting ducks for the hypersonic missiles that Russia has developed.
