Russian Navy maneuvers in English channel today
Great images of Russian and Brit naval ships and aircraft at the link. Worth it for that alone if you like that sort of thing.
ROYAL Navy warships will “man-mark” a menacing Russia fleet that is preparing a pincer move on the English Channel, the MoD has said.

Eight Russian vessels led by a aircraft carrier are heading down the North Sea and are expected to pass through the Dover Straits tomorrow morning. And they are expected to link up with two more ships there, meaning TEN heavily-armed Russian ships will be operating just miles from the British coast.

The drills are being observed by both the Royal Navy and a Norwegian vessel as they head down the North Sea. The Russian Northern Fleet is being stalked by two British warships, while two corvettes heading to Britain through the Bay of Biscay are being tracked by HMS Dragon.
