"The first contact with a foreign submarine lasted for several days, and at that time it was a record for the Navy for the duration of tracking," Alexander Brazgun, a technician of the hydro-acoustic group of the PANATA "Panther", said.

Sergei Starshinov, the commander of the Shchuk(a) Division...Earlier told about how during the unique operation "Pike" reached the American bases and left their area, left undetected. ■

Starshinov is the commander of the Akula-class fleet in Gadzhiyevo, which is at Murmansk, close to the northern tip of Norway.

Starshinov's interview about the Shchuka (Pike) sub's patrol to the E coast US Navy base was pulled yesterday.

But a screen shot was saved:

"This is our objective. To come and go undetected". He said the sub did not violate the American maritime border.

Correct me if I'm wrong, our record of tracking Russia's stealthiest sub was 51 days back in 2009.

Russia clearly sees submarine warfare as a priority.

At least they think they were undetected. Keep dreaming boys, you’ll sleep better.

He said the sub did not violate the American maritime border.

And he claims he approached our base undetected? LOL!

We've probably got photos thru a porthole of him peeing in the toilet...........

This is from a Russian propaganda news source.......

Even if unclassified, some things are better left unsaid.

I doubt that they passed through the G-I-UK SOSUS line “undetected”. Not to mention the “snoopers” that are posted outside their maritime borders.

They can claim that they “tracked” our boats, but that’s probably we wanted them to be able to track our boats in order to record acoustic signatures of their boats.
