Russia (bbabo.net), - In the incident with the US Navy nuclear submarine near the Kuril island of Urup, the frigate of the Pacific Fleet "Marshal Shaposhnikov" acted as a sentry: he informed the intruder that he had been detected, and when he pretended not to hear, Russian sailors presented convincing evidence.

- It's as if you were on guard and saw the intruder. The first "shot in the air" is the transfer of information to the submarine that it has invaded the territorial waters of Russia and is in a dangerous position, military expert Dmitry Litovkin told Zvezda.

Next, the Russian sailors made it clear to their American colleagues that they knew the exact location of their ship.

- To do this, grenades are launched from the bombing installation. They show the submariners that they were, in fact, overlaid with red flags and, if they do not make any decision, the next step will be a direct defeat of the object, ”Litovkin continued.

The US submarine did not wait for the next step: having fired a self-propelled simulator as a decoy - so frightened an octopus hides behind a cloud of ink - the submarine went into neutral waters as quickly as possible.

Recall that the intruder was discovered by anti-submarine aircraft and a submarine of the Pacific Fleet, which worked out in the area of ​​​​the Kuril ridge just the search for and destruction of enemy submarines.
