Royal Navy film in which a Soviet Krivak Class frigate is located by an RAF Nimrod maritime patrol aircraft. The Oberon Class diesel-electric submarine HMS Odin (S10) is detailed to intercept and gather intelligence, including close-up photos of the Krivak's rudder, propellers and hull below the waterline.

I was a fore-endie on Osiris and Orpheus and remember doing this on a Kresta and a Krivak, would've been '79/'80. Definite pucker factor!!!

The balls it must take to do this....actually its the sheer professionalism that is humbling.

I was on ODIN for "part 3" then Canada trip 1979 / 1980. REM Ilett ( SKIPPY) Started collecting ex equipment when OTTER was scrapped in mid 1990s...now a "control room / motor room " walkthrough....was originally in Norfolk, but now at the old north school house, EDAY , ORKNEY and open to public free of charge. Moaned like everyone,....but wouldnt have missed it for worlds. left the RN to spend 6 months on the canals...then return to RN...but never did as i worked the last full time Commercial Narrowboats. I have long memories of ODIN and still have my kit and instruction books and loads of photos. my job was radio and radar, my watchkeeping was in the motor room. The commanders of ODIN at that time were the well known... Lt Com ISH Richards...then Lt Com R Stevens. I wish everyone all the very best....and OSCAR....are you still there ????.............cheers everyone. mike ilett (skippy)

@@BurroughWolf Hi, Yes ..He left Odin to go to Splendid which was building at Barrow....we did a refit there afterwards and he was around at that time. He was supposed to be one of the best skippers and i remember someone saying that if there was another war....its a good job he is on our side. ....but you are right....he didnt tolerate slackness. Wishing you all the very best. Mike ilett.

This was incredibly interesting to someone who was in the Royal Marines at this time. I know that technology and the very nature of submarines has changed but the skill level involved here is seriously impressive. Thanks HP

Did my parts 1 &2 at Dolphin in 1978 and once assigned to a boat, underwater looks would be part of our bread and butter. Always a tightening of the pucker valve doing this.

I worked on HMS Odin, and some of her sister ships, back in the early 80’s at Rosyth. SSN/SSBN’s also.

Old friend of mine was serving aboard HM submarines at that time and through much of the 80's. Even 20 years ago he still wouldn't talk about much of what they did a couple of dozen years before.

@@spowie11 - Hey buddy - Great boat, but my term in Navy was during the mid 70's. So many cut backs I exited stage left in 1978 during fireman's strike. Navy paid £33 a week, but got a civilian job at £105 a week. Skipper Lt Robinson. My LEM was Bogie McKnight who used to train me to operate the motor switchboard by hitting knuckles with wooden ruler. Many other ship mates - wonder where they are now ?

@@Hants_Prints Unfortunately I don't although it might have been around Easter as it big thing at school but I was very young. I'd certainly appreciate it if you could. It was a bit of a Boy's Own playground in that part of the world, with our Sunderland flying boat, HMS Warrior and Chieftain and Leopard I tanks trundling all over the place, not to mention all the forts and castles and the old dockyard to play in.

Wouldn't Soviet SONAR have picked them up?

@robwilton9539 22 күн бұрын

Only in active mode. In passive mode the sub would have the cover of the noise from the ship they were under. The irony is that active sonar is very rarely used as it gives one's position away.

Just look how far the UK has fallen! Today the RN would be lucky to have 2 SSNs on patrol! They would rather spend money on putting illegals in Hotels! This video reminds us that we were once a strong professional force that could protect our shores! When they scrapped Nimrod we went 11 years without marine patrol aircraft!
