"Have you ever lost the Severodvinsk?" "I'd rather not comment on submarine operation's to that specific level of detail!" In other words... YES!

“From what I have seen of our Russian allies during the war, I am convinced that there is nothing they admire so much as strength, and there is nothing for which they have less respect than weakness, especially military weakness.” —— Winston Churchill, Fulton, Missouri, 5 March 1946

A Russian sub travelled on the surface, in plain sight, through the North Sea from Russia’s northern naval bases. A succession of NATO warships kept a watchful eye on it, waiting for it to submerge.... it didn't.
At least not until it reached Libya. It then headed east across the Mediterranean, then slipped undersea, quiet as a mouse.

Then, out of the blue a series of cruise missiles tore through the air towards targets around Syria’s besieged city of Palmyra.

He’s very careful with his words. The last thing that the US wants to do is admit that it can track Russian subs, as that would only lead them to building a new class that’s even more difficult.

I'll translate to you what this general just said: "Give me more money! More MONEY!"

[spartaknumerouno]

the payload of one of these submarines is capable of destroying half a continent and all they are worried about is high speed cables. lol

[commandomkz]

One thing history has taught us is that Russia is very advanced in science and aerospace technology.

I'm here to talk about russian subs, but I'm not at liberty to talk about russian subs

The Cold War will never truly end. It only gets colder over time. Right now as we speak, Russian and American Submariners are deployed underwater on their respective boats, drilling for the Nuclear Apocalypse. The tension between our countries is lessened since the Soviet Union dissolved. However, our needs to have the tactical and strategic advantages over each other will never dissolve.

I remember when google earth first came out I found two of their Typhoon class docked at Severodvinsk.

If Russia didn't have their nuclear weapons and ballistic submarines, we would already have WW3 long time ago.. Strong Russia is needed by the world to keep the balance of power and therefore peace!

Love to both US and Russia from Europe!

[MrDredd]

I'll neither confirmed or deny we have lost track of a Russian submarine!!🤔😳😲😖

[monstanoisebomb]

How dare the Russians sail the seas like the US the cheek of it

[indieguruge]

I’m not at the liberty to talk about anything… I’m just here to show my face and nod and shake my head and deny everything…

[putochingarkabrona]

speaking of presence US is everywhere lol

[Razumist]

hi from Russia...we would very much like our countries to be friends

To lose a single Russian submarine in the Atlantic is a tragedy? Look at it from the Russian point-of-view. The threat you posed us in the Cold War and even up to today is absolutely no less than the threat we posed you in the Soviet period (not any more, we are no longer Soviet and no longer seeking world domination, unlike you). We, too, seek to defend ourselves, and have frequently found ourselves on the back foot in acoustic technology. So don't feel too panicked if we occasionally get one up on you. We don't want to destroy you, we just want to protect ourselves from your demonstrable aggression. Long story short, we feel about you pretty much the same as you feel about us. But, for the most part, we don't care and, I suspect, neither do you.

[unemiryune]

Oh, is it about how they tracked a submarine that wasn't even hiding and couldn't do that for several days? xd

[ShadrachHowie]

This sub is off the coast of California right now. How do you like it?

Russian submarines are very quiet, Until their first maintenance period. Usually about six months. After that.
They are not so quiet.
