Russian warships heading for British waters including aircraft carrier and submarine
Images taken by a Norwegian surveillance plane reveal a Russian submarine, destroyer and aircraft carrier – complete with fighter jets and helicopters – passed Scandinavia’s northern shoreline yesterday.
The vessels were apparently travelling in international waters as they made their way to the Mediterranean, where they will bolster Russia’s involvement in the war in Syria.
They were spotted by a Lockheed P-3 Orion surveillance aircraft near the remote island of Andoya.
