Titolo: Russian subs stalk Trident in echo of Cold War

i russi giocano sporco nel nord atlantico...indicativo questo loro nuovo 
crescente interesse per l'area...perlomeno dai tempi della guerra 
fredda...sarebbe questa la 'distensione' di Putin??

Russian subs stalk Trident in echo of Cold War
Russian submarines are hunting down British Vanguard boats in a return to 
Cold War tactics not seen for 25 years, Navy chiefs have warned.

A specially upgraded Russian Akula class submarine has been caught trying to 
record the acoustic signature made by the Vanguard submarines that carry 
Trident nuclear missiles, according to senior Navy officers.
British submariners have also reported that they are experiencing the 
highest number of "contacts" with Russian submarines since 1987.
If the Russians are able to obtain a recording of the unique noise of the 
boat's propellers it would have serious implications for Britain's nuclear 
deterrent. Using its sophisticated sonar, the Akula would be able to track 
Vanguards and potentially sink them before they could launch their Trident 
D4 missiles.
The Daily Telegraph has learnt that, within the past six months, a Russian 
Akula entered the North Atlantic and attempted to track a Vanguard. The 
incident has remained secret until now.
It is understood that the Russians stood off Faslane, where the British 
nuclear force is based, and waited for a Trident-carrying boat to come out 
for its three-month patrol to provide the Continuous At Sea Deterrent.
While patrolling in the North Atlantic, there are a limited number of places 
the Vanguard is permitted to go and it is thought that the Akula attempted 
to track it on several occasions.
Navy commanders are understood to have ordered a Trafalgar-class 
hunter-killer submarine to protect the Vanguard. A recording of the Akula 
was made by the Trafalgar submarine's sonar operators and has been played to 
The Daily Telegraph.
"The Russians have been playing games with us, the Americans and French in 
the North Atlantic," a senior Navy commander said.
"We have put a lot of resources into protecting Trident because we cannot 
afford by any stretch to let the Russians learn the acoustic profile of one 
of our bombers as that would compromise the deterrent."

Il mondo gira Curz.
Quando erano gli USA a fare stalking al Kursk eravamo in un'altra era.
Mi pare ovvio che i russi si facciano la noise form dei sub avversari,
forse che gli altri non fanno lo stesso?
