on a related note according to the Sun there is a Russian submarine lurking around the North Sea apparently tracking a Vanguard SSBN.
They had a picture of the real Akula also know as the Typhoon SSBN and I was thinking, they have got the wrong Akula...they must be meaning the the Shcuka B - Akula SSN.
Now when they say North Sea do they mean the bit between Scotland and Norway or do they mean further north as I though a Vanguard would transit to the north easter atlantic and then far north closer to the ice cap.
Anyway interesting times.
