How will this help the US and her allies better evaluate the capabilities, or gather data off of the Akula (assuming it is an Akula based off of the photo) during these exercises?

Conversely, how much data could the Akula pick up on Nato warships etc?

Old enough to take a gunshot for the Motherland, but not old enough to take a ***shot from a horny subsimmer?

Would love to know the context of that foto.
The kid in the background looks about 8 or so.
Maybe a promo photo with kids or something?
I reckon that girl wouldn't be 18. If she was, then i'd be mega surprised.

That's a little... too vulgar if you ask me. Maybe I'm sensitive but common

When did "The Russians are Coming" originally come out anyway? some time in the 60's I assume.

I saw it for the first time back in maybe 1984 on VHS when I was a kid but I know it is a bit older than that.
