Ping, Dragartist, thank you for the information.Not wise of the existence of the book.

With the information I have located which are the buoys, though the document is not said which is one of them (type 300.. ???).

In this case the Nimrod it was not patrolling an area, was going in traffic to a WP and the throwings of the buoys were spread in the time and to an alone buoy.

I have mas doubts of the documents but though they are classified, understand the situation.

Thank you.

Pingdit or some crew member of Nimrod, if it is possible to speak.

In the disqualified documents that I investigate of the epoch of the Cold War, a Nimrod detect between a fishing fleet of the Warsaw Pact an emission band G(NATO) corresponding, according to the classification, to a concrete radar of the NATO. Logically after investigating a submarine there did not exist the presence of any warship in the area.

Could Soviets AGIs "disturb" the electronic sign to create this frequency and to be deceptive to the sensors?.

Thank you again.

Javier.

As you will see from 'Jane's Weapon Systems' publications, some old Soviet submarines and AGI's carried the same radar fit.

A lot of very probing questions about some very sensitive operations. We may, hopefully, have the capability to conduct those ops again one day. Too much information?

JG, submarines have been known to use the cover of fishing fleets for many years. This was done during WW2. There is of course a problem with a submarine intruding unknown into a fishing fleet - nets.

Javie, just Google "Tracsvan" and apply some thought.

Thanks to all for the "awkward" answers. Sun Yellow very good the link I understand what you say, but … … half / half.

To finish, if someone feels curiosity by what I am investigated, nicely I can share the information that I arrange (docs and maps). We speak it for deprived.

Thank you very much to all.

But don't hold your breath!

Just because the UK no longer conduct MPA operations doesn't mean to say that our allies don't! People really should remember the old security line - "Need to know".

A Valkenberg, over 30 years ago, one of the Dutch middies asked how we found submarines.

I explained the field, LCL, LCD, Hi-Fix. "No, no", he said "How do you know where to sow the field?"

Ah, that was the question not withstanding John Pack and THAT Panorama programme :)

The UK STILL conducts MPA ops. We just use Allied MPA to conduct them with! :oh:

Cold Deep War
 

PN If you mean the Cold Deep War with Tom Mangold I was part of the crew that spent a week with the Panorama team in July 77. Lots of things were revealed in that programme I seem to remember. Anyone know if there are copies of it still around?
