British nuclear submarine HMS Talent "peered" at the maneuvers of Russian ships and hit an ice floe

257
British Edition Mail On Sunday writes that HMS Talent, the atomic submarine of the British Royal Navy, received serious damage. It turns out that the crew of the British submarine conducted an operation to "track Russian ships." “Tracking”, apparently, was so fascinating that the crew did not pay attention to another object located in the waters. This is a large ice floe, which HMS Talent faced.

The collision occurred at the moment when the crew of the submarine at the last moment tried to send HMS Talent under the ice floe. It was not possible to escape from the impact of the cabin on the ice object, which resulted in damage to the British nuclear submarine, which was damaged, according to estimates of British experts in the amount of 0,5 million pounds sterling (about 750 thousand dollars).

British nuclear submarine HMS Talent "peered" at the maneuvers of Russian ships and hit an ice floe


According to the British media, a hole with a diameter greater than 2 m appeared on the wheelhouse. According to some sources, the incident could have occurred in one of the Arctic seas, where British submarines monitor the maneuvers of Russian warships.

After the accident, the engineers found a violation of the integrity of the layer of so-called acoustic tiles. HMS Talent will go through repair work at a British shipyard.

The HMS Talent submarine was built in 1988 and commissioned in 1990. This is the third British boat with the same name for history underwater fleet United Kingdom.

    This is a large ice floe, which is what HMS Talent collided with.

    The British Defense Department has denied a Mail on Sunday report that the British nuclear submarine HMS Talent collided with an ice floe while tracking Russian warships. However, the military admitted that the submarine incident took place last year.

    Did they rent it backwards? Did you park in a dark yard? There's a dent in the back of the wheelhouse. In short, I can’t believe that this boat ran into an ice floe.
    Nowhere do they lie more than in fishing and in the submarine fleet.

    Russia's greatest enemy is not the United States, but the British Crown. The British Queen, in addition to Great Britain, is the head of fifteen more countries. These are Australia, Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Grenada, Canada, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Jamaica. In fact, the queen controls all branches of government - legislative, executive and judicial. And finally, the monarch is the Supreme Ruler of the Anglican Church and can appoint bishops and archbishops (that is, the head of not only temporal, but also spiritual power, which does not exist anywhere in the world, even in Iran). It was the British crown that was directly involved in the drug trade for at least two centuries (this is for those who have forgotten about the “Opium Wars”).

    In fact, such damage is not uncommon. Because ice floes do not make noise, therefore, in passive mode they cannot be detected, unless on very large ice floes and ice fields at the edges a lot of all living creatures squeak, scream, etc. Ours also fought periodically. Gremykhanians felled themselves, here is one of the Pacific BDRs after walking in the Chukchi Sea.

    I agree, but on our ships a smoking room does not cost 0,5 million pounds.

    A new site suitable for landing has been identified on a drifting ice floe in the Arctic

    Moscow. 5th of April. INTERFAX - A reconnaissance group of specialists from the command of the Airborne Forces, together with representatives of the CSTO CRRF and the Expeditionary Center of the Russian Geographical Society, carried out the necessary measurements on one of the drifting ice floes in the area of ​​89 degrees north latitude.

    “During the event, the most suitable limited landing site for landing was determined, called “Dome,” Lieutenant Colonel Evgeny Meshkov, a representative of the Press Service and Information Directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense for the Airborne Forces, told Interfax on Sunday.

    He noted that the new ice landing site on a drifting ice floe, in the immediate vicinity of the North Pole, has a minimal number of hummocks, cracks and polynyas.

    “The event is being carried out by Russian paratroopers and contingents of the CSTO CRRF in cooperation with the Russian Military Transport Aviation and the Expeditionary Center of the Russian Geographical Society,” added the representative of the Ministry of Defense. laughing

    A big ship gets a big ice floe! The commander of the ice floe with the call sign "Sniper" has been promoted.
    The crew of "Maryata" urgently purchases fenders and old tires.


    It’s better to say differently about the Anglo-Saxons: “A big ship has a big hole in it.”

    We need a “fighter” of uninvited guests in our Arctic waters like the “Mackerel,” but on a new technical basis. Then they can be made into 50-60 corps, which will put an end to the Virginias, Wolves, Moose and Nuts.
    Dynamic characteristics like Lyra, the depth of the Fin, the speed of the Anchar, the weapons of the Ash. A dream - and that's all!

    It’s time for us to develop faster icebergs so that they can reach Florida and Okinawa under their own power after melting, and also periodically dive under water and float up.
