Hopefully, that includes a couple of Los Angeles class subs, which could put the entire Black Sea fleet on the bottom in 4 hours max.
During the 80s, I worked around some sub types. Their term for the Russian fleet was "target-rich environment". I doubt that’s changed. Ask the crew of the Kursk. |

What? No aircraft carriers? |

I’d be very interested to know the following:
What’s going on at Incirlik? Increased activity?
What are the Turks doing? Have they moved units back to the Georgian border?
Probably not going to get answers to those questions, but when I have some time I think I will google just in general about Turkey-Georgian relations, and how Turkey handled the crisis in Georgia diplomatically. |

Transit of the Bosphorus is controlled by the Montreux Convention, which bans passage of aircraft carriers and capital ships http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreux_Convention
This treaty is a way to keep the Russian fleet mainly in the Black Sea, so the United States has no interest in violating it and provoking a dispute with our NATO ally, Turkey, in the process. |

The US never signed the Montreux Convention. However, we abide by it volentarly.
The Russians did move an aircraft carrier through the straits, by redefining it as an "aircraft transport" or some other such lie.
Putting a carrier in such a small area is probably not a good idea, anyway. |

"Move, counter-move - the nature of "great power" power struggles."
Right. Next move is the Russian air force starts making high-speed passes over the ships. Then the ships start to light up their targeting radars to discourage it. Then ...etc.
Let us hope the Georgians or other parties don’t complicate the game. |
