The Russian military department began preparations for laying a transarctic communication line in the interests of fleet and coastal forces, report News.

The Arctic is “stitched” with fiber optic cables




A new fiber-optic line will begin in Severomorsk, pass through Anadyr, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky and end in Vladivostok. It will expand the operational management capabilities of the Russian Navy. The cables will be in the area of ​​responsibility of the two fleets - the Northern and Pacific.

“The line of length 12,7 thousand km is conditionally divided into two parts - the Arctic and the Far East. The length of the first will be about 5,7 thousand. Km, the second - 7 thousand. When laying the line equip segments of several types: non-broadcast, with underwater repeaters and with laser pumping to enhance the luminous flux. The application of one technology or another will depend on the relief and hydrogeological situation. A prerequisite for the equipment used and the optical fiber is resistance at extremely low temperatures, ”the newspaper writes, citing the Ministry of Defense.

In real time, it will be possible to monitor the operational situation from Norway to China. If stationary hydroacoustic complexes for underwater lighting are connected to such a line, then an object found, say, in the Arctic Ocean, will immediately become known in Vladivostok, Severomorsk and Moscow. Such a telecommunications system will seriously increase the effectiveness of land and fleet management,
told the publication of military expert Dmitry Boltenkov.

For underwater work, special cable vessels of the Volga and Vyatka class will be used. They are currently being completed at the Zaliv plant in Kerch. According to preliminary data, the Volga is scheduled to be commissioned in 2019 year, Vyatka - a year later.

          Look at the terms 2019-2020 and if there is no shift as always to the right, then there is no money, then something went wrong, then they will start laying the cable at the end of the 20th and beginning of 2021, how much they will pull the cable when they surrender, then only God knows request Well, as for who knows, does not know, so whoever is supposed to, he knows where our cables are laid and where their cables are laid.

          And enemy intelligence only obtains information from an Internet? Before you post data, you need to get it from somewhere. And if this data has already gone beyond those who are supposed to know about it, then they will be known to adversaries even without placement.

      And then they will not know that we are laying the cable. They will puzzle why this vessel cable-laying machine unwinds some cable in the Arctic. They will think for a long time, but they will never guess. Secrecy is certainly needed, but everything needs to know the measure. So that there is no situation that has been mentioned here many times. When foreign military magazines were under special clearance because there are photographs and the alleged performance characteristics of Soviet technology that are secret.

        We have enough of our enemies. A few days ago, in the Yaroslavl region, a fiber optic plant that worked on defense orders was cut off for debts to a gas supplier. The plant is stopped until the debt is paid. Did he prepare products for the Arctic?

            I think that in this case both of you are right. Maybe both the first and second situation, or both at once. Ehehe, as the huntsman Kuzmich said - "in Russia, there are a hundred years in reserve." And I.A. Krylov noted - "the helpful d * p * k is more dangerous than the enemy."

      With wired lines you can listen. Remove from them with the help of external sensors. With fiber optics, this is much more difficult. You need to crash directly into the cable, which will be immediately noticed ..

        "that will be immediately noticed" - Almost YOUR TRUTH ... Almost ...
        Read on the Internet a story about the American IvyBels project. In the framework of this project, Americans from special submarines stuck to two underwater copper cables of the USSR Ministry of Defense in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk (if memory serves, the MKM-1 and MKM-2 cables). History of about 70s. It also tells how these listening “suckers” were discovered (by accident ...).

      You are tormented by listening to optics, especially if the communication channels are encrypted hi
      And attempts to remove from the fiber are detected quite trivially.
      The enemy can have only a destructive effect (damage) on the fiber optic link.

        You can take a signal from a fiber in several ways:
        1. By analogy with SORM (implementation in conjunction with the agro-industrial complex Sormovich, Omega, etc.). Those. in the gap of the optical line with the help of splitters the signal is removed in both directions.
        2. The fibers are cleaned and bent, an optical signal is taken at the bend.
        Both methods allow you to remove the optical signal, but do not allow access to the channel (especially if it is encrypted). If the traffic is not encrypted, then you will simply receive a bunch of packets / frames (anyone who knows satellite fishing will understand) lol
        With any of the methods, these effects are detected by a trivial simple reflectometer, not to mention the communication lines of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Security Service, the Ministry of Defense and other special services - there the lines automatically control the parameters of the transmission medium, and any effect is displayed almost instantly with the corresponding reaction. hi

      In the GDR, all Soviet lines were tapped.

      It certainly was, and how to read:
      In London on December 15, 17 and 18, 1953, secret joint meetings of representatives of the Central Intelligence Agency of the United States and the Secret Intelligence Service of Great Britain took place. It was decided to lay a tunnel to the communication lines of the Soviet troops and the communication lines of the GDR. The meeting was attended by Deputy Head of Division "Y" George Blake, who was one of the most valuable agents of Soviet intelligence [2]. Blake handed over the minutes of top-secret meetings to S. Kondrashev, the acting KGB resident in London. When in Moscow they received his report [3] on the tunnel, the task of ensuring Blake’s security became central to the leadership of the KGB. It was decided that the Soviet side would pretend that it did not know about the operation of the Western special services and would transmit secondary information and misinformation via cable [4].

      It took almost a year and a half to create a tunnel, install equipment, and connect to a communication cable. Tunnel construction costs totaled $ 6 million. On May 11, 1955, the CIA began to continuously listen to talks between Soviet military and East German ministers. A total of 443 thousand negotiations were recorded, of which 386 thousand were Soviet and 75 thousand were East German. They formed the basis of 1750 reconnaissance reports [5].

One bourgeois from the NSA said that all traffic in the world is 98% boys and girls from the picture, and less than 0.5% is worthy of information.

    There is a big fear that Asian migrant workers will be laying the line, instead of optical fiber they will be given telephone "noodles", money will be stolen almost all, and then the person responsible for the construction project will be put under house arrest for a short time.

    The underwater gasket is:
    - Survey work;
    - The project;
    - route;
    - Availability of equipment;
    - Availability of cable vessels and apparatus / auxiliary vessels for:
    A: Gaskets / recesses;
    B: Subsequent maintenance;
    B. Repair.
    (not always the same thing).
    - Technical staff for such work !!!!!!! Previously, they attracted the military (in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk), during the sunset of the USSR - adversaries from Italy, France, Great Britain.
    - Favorable ice conditions!
    - Availability of ports / bases with spare parts warehouses (including cable stock) for ships along the cable route ...
    - The issue of the ship’s regime in the “standby readiness” and response to troubleshooting - and IT'S ALL SECRET for me, especially in the winter.

    At such lengths, as a rule, the cable is laid according to the principle of festoons (in the Baltic, for example, there is such a connection).
    If so, then it is necessary to provide for completely capital construction of coastal stations with all the "flowing in and out."
    And most importantly, why ??????????????
    The current network infrastructure in the Russian Federation (fiber, with redundancy !!!!) allows you to perform this same monitoring on-line "right now", which is the place to be.
    Paved, fake news.
    I recall a similar PolarNet project. Safely closed.
    And most importantly: "Where is the money, Zin?"

    About time for laying the cable. If you do not dig in, then laying the cable with a vessel with a dynamic positioning system (under ideal conditions up to 5 knots (approx. 9 km / h), if you need to dig a trench, then depending on the soil, the depth of the trench and the equipment used (underwater an excavator (trainer) an average of 40 to 300 meters per hour, using a plow up to 2-3 km / h) digging a trench 1-1,5 km / h, falling asleep 2-3 km / h. Having a distance of 12700 km can be calculated ( taking into account the work of two vessels), the answer will be very rude, but we will guess the order, this is only laying, without additional equipment.

      And if a cable break under the ice ??????????
      Icebreaker call ?????????? !!!!!!!! ??????
      Of course, local sofas and Khsperdy will say: "And then !!!!!!!! Give an icebreaker !!!!!!!!!!!!."
      But those who did not come across on the sofa, but in practice with these works, will say many unflattering words ... Specialists in this area (and there are not so many of them !!!!) will understand me and know what work is on the coastal section of the route cable and what equipment / technology is required for this.
      By the way, where to buy a cable planiruetso ????? In the Russian Federation, such a cable of this level is not produced yet. Alcatel? Huawei? TyCO !!!!!!!! ???????? !!!!!
      There is something in the Russian Federation, but "not the right coat." Not so far.
      And who will build and maintain coast stations?
      PS Transtelecom had (and probably has) a short cable between the mainland and Sakhalin through the Tatar Strait. Oh and hemorrrrho was when closing the gaps. I even had to put the radio relay on the buoy, according to the stories of techies from Trans. Specialists will understand me ...
