Ukrainian media write about the Russian submarine "lost its speed" near Denmark
Russian nuclear-powered missile submarine cruiser (APRK) of the North fleet "Eagle" of project 949A "Antey" lost speed off the coast of Denmark. Ukrainian media write about this with reference to the report of the Royal Danish Navy.
It is alleged that the Russian submarine "lost its speed" on July 30, 2021, allegedly two miles from the Danish city of Aarhus, located on the country's coast, after which it continued to drift at a speed of 1,5 knots. The reason for the stop is not named, the Russian submariners refused to help the Danes.
After some time, the submarine is said to have been approached by a large anti-submarine ship (BOD) of the Northern Fleet "Vice-Admiral Kulakov" and a rescue tug "Altai". As the Danes who watched the actions of the Russian sailors reported, preparations were made to tow the submarine, but it was not needed, since the submarine continued to move first on the surface, and then going under water.
Nuclear submarine missile cruiser (APRK) of the Northern Fleet "Eagle" project 949A "Antey" participated in the Main Naval Parade, having arrived in Kronstadt in the first decade of July this year. Along with him came the nuclear submarines of the Northern Fleet - the Vepr multipurpose nuclear submarine (NPS) of Project 971 Shchuka-B and the strategic missile submarine (PRKSN) Knyaz Vladimir of the Borey-A project.
After the parade, a detachment of ships of the Northern Fleet, which included the Orel APRK, set off for the inter-fleet passage to the place of permanent deployment.
