Pictures of Philly
Crossposted from The Stupid Shall Be Punished:Just got these pictures of USS Philadelphia in port in Bahrain after her collision with M/V Yaso Aysen. In this first picture, looking aft from the sail, it's clear that the merchant rode up on Philly's deck:

Here's a picture from the dock looking at the starboard side; note the damage to the fairwater planes:

I expect the Navy will be posting high-res versions of these pics on their website very soon...
Staying at PD...

It looks (hopefully) possible that it missed the towed array. That would be nice....
Gotta love HY...damage looks mainly superficial (SHT scraped all to hell). I bet the WEPS is echoing Jeff's wish that it missed the TA...
Did the CO get relieved?
