We don't refuel from bulk carriers, purpose built military ships. My old ship did once take on fuel from a Japanese tender once though.
Better pic, from the damage on the starboard fwd quarter it certainly doesn't seem like much maneuver was made to avoid, presumably would have been turning to starboard in most situations.
As for fancy radars, life at night in such areas is often excitingly enough done under EMCON or emissions control conditions meaning no radar to tell the world where we are. Sometimes no lights either. Then you rely on a junior guy mad at the world in general, Navy in particular to tell you that one part of the sky is a bit blacker than others.
I was on a ship in a collision. First go to EMCON. Then secure aft lookouts due to jet engine test ops on the fantail. Secure from flight ops. Start doing reactor drills to include crash stops. P.S. Forget to tell cruiser trailing you that flight ops is done, they can stop trailing you as plane guard. Anyway, there is now a CVN-71 class out there, it's about 8 ft shorter and sports one less CIWS mount than a Nimitz class. 
The cruiser was worse for the wear, new bow for it.
Yup. I'd just gotten off the 10-2 watch down in EOS (where we control the reactors and main engines from), and was back in berthing JUST falling asleep as drills started. The ship starts shaking due to going to all-back-full from flank-ahead, the 'collision' alarm goes off, and I thought to myself, "Okay, now the guy who leaned on the alarm comes on the 1MC and tells us all to disregard the previous alarm..." - and the ship shudders and heels up from the port-aft corner. Reportedly, about 5-10 seconds before impact, one of the lookouts on the maneuvering circuit called out a "Popup contact."
Damage was into the tens of millions for each ship, both
TR and
Leyte Gulf; we lost a CIWS and sponson, as well as a damaged poppet on one of the main-engine steam chests, rendering that engine incapable of low-speed control. That was the engine I was throttleman on for drills and the ORSE inspection a couple of weeks later, of course, leaving me unable to match turns on the other 3 shafts until they got to 50 rpm.
Leyte Gulf ended up with about a 20' gash in her hull a few feet above the waterline, and had to head for port. We did not. Fun times...
