The Russian military discovered and successfully captured secret American equipment.
Secret equipment was found a few kilometers off the Russian island of Urup, apparently abandoned in a hurry by the crew of a U.S. Virginia-class nuclear submarine that was discovered in Russian territorial waters on February 12.
According to data obtained by the Avia.pro news agency, we are talking about a special device that actually saved the crew of an American nuclear submarine from being destroyed by Russian anti-submarine aircraft and ships of the Pacific Fleet. We are talking about a sonar countermeasure device, which was fired after the Russian side used some kind of weapon against the submarine.
According to media reports, the device shot down by the American nuclear submarine subsequently sank, but was successfully discovered by the Russian military. It is known that the device is intended only to counter an attack and does not represent any kind of weaponry.
Experts note that the technology used in the target simulator is not so new, but the equipment lost by the American nuclear submarine may well help the Russian military modernize its weapons in order to avoid losing targets in the future.
