How to spy on the Russian Navy... For free!

First, open google earth. Type in Polyarny. Look around the place, and you will see several Alfa, Sierra, or Akula submarines around the place! Then, go to Severomorsk, and you will see the bulk of the Russian surface fleet, including the Battlecruiser Pyotr Velikiy. Then, to Severodvinsk, to see the aircraft carrier Admiral Gorshkov, soon to join the ranks of the Indian Navy, and all of the Typhoon class SSBNs.

And now to the German port of Eckenförde, to see the 1st Unterseebootgeschwader of the Bundesmarine, and across several oceans to Garden Island, Western Australia, to see half of Australia's submarine fleet.

Yeah but the problem with Google Earth is knowing what date the pictures were taken.

If you use Google Earth you can choose between different years. If you want a little treat, go to Guam on the 6/7/2006.
