Russia’s secret war in the waters of British

In an article, the British media described the ielligence measures attributed to Russia to obtain information on the British Navy and submarine, according to ISNA.

According to the Sunday Times, recely found in the waters of Britain, sensors are believed to have been used by Russia to spy on British nuclear submarines. The British army described the discovery as a poteial threat to national security, but has not yet declared it publicly. A number of these devices were discovered on the coast, while others have reportedly ideified by the British Navy.

According to the report, the devices are thought to have been installed by Moscow to collect information about the four British Wangard submarines carrying nuclear missiles. One of these submarines is always prese at the sea, and its mission is to impleme the British Permane Infrastructure Program.

During a three -moh investigation, the Sunday Times spoke to more than five former defense ministers, senior armed forces and military experts to find out how Russia took advaage of its unique abilities in the underwater war against Britain.

Return to the hidden battles of the Cold War

Senior military figures have compared deep -sea technology battle with the US -Soviet space competition during the Cold War, saying that Britain is aware of Russian power, but the question is whether it can offset this backwardness.

For the first time, more than 5 British Navy diving and mining forces have been on the Proteus ship; Forces that are skilled in ideifying, recovering, and destroying enemy ammunition in the seafarers will be an iegral part of the ship’s operation. “British underwater infrastructure has faced an unprecedeed threat from Russia, this long -standing enemy,” the report said.

According to sources in the British Navy, Russia never stopped investing in submarines that patrol io the dark oceans of the world after the Cold War, and today it is the only coury with a fleet of specialized submarines for war in the sea and espionage. These submarines are more capable of NATO and British submarines.

According to the report, Russian submarines can sit on the sea bed and cut cables with their mechanical arms, put explosives, or install hearing on optical fiber cables. They are supported by four larger submarines called the “Mother’s Submarine” that allow the fleet’s confideial move to anywhere in the world.

Russia has other capabilities. Three senior British defense sources claimed that before the Ukrainian war began, there were “reliable information” that showed that the Russian oligarchbi -owned clouds might have been used to carry out underwater ideification operations around the UK. Some of these ships have openings called the “Moon Pool” that allow deep and diving ideification equipme to deploy or restore.

War

The British media considers it to be the fragility of British energy supply by claiming that the explosion was carried out in Russian rolling gas pipelines with Russian ierveion; A coury that now supplies about one -fifth of its energy from the marine wind farms.

The electricity generated by these turbines is transmitted to land via underwater cables. Oil and gas transmission lines are also vital to the UK, especially those who transmit gas from Norway. These lines can be easily cut if explosives are installed by Russia.

“If you cut these lines, you have lost that source of energy – and in wier and peak consumption, this can be serious,” says one senior military commander. Another official adds that a coordinated attack could lead to the “collapse of the global electricity network” in the UK.

The Iernet cables that connect the UK to the rest of the world are covered with polyethylene plastic and are only a few ceimeters thick. These cables are easily ierrupted and often their position is publicly recorded. Although naval sources say cutting these cables will only be in the most severe type of problem attacks, the main concern is those cables that transmit bank data through the Atlaic Ocean and play a vital role in the performance of Western financial markets. Satellite backup systems will not be able to manage the enormous amou of information that passes through these cables every second.

On the other hand, what is deeply concerned about British military forces is Russia’s ability to male, infiltrate and destroy vital military cables around the world. “There are cables whose position and existence are not public,” says one senior official. “The Russians also have the ability to cut off military cables.” The Sunday Times claims that a sample of Russian efforts to infiltrate these cables has been recorded in year 6.
