Soviet frigate Storozhevoy the ship what inspired Tom Clancy for his book "The Hunt for Red October"

Frigate Storozhevoy was the Soviet Navy 1135 Burevestnik-class anti-submarine frigate(1). NATO reporting name of this class of ships is Krivak(2). This ship was "famous" because the political officer leads the mutiny on that ship. That mutiny was lead by political officer Valery Sablin(3) on 9 November 1975.

That man attempted to escape from the Riga harbor. and sail to the Leningrad, where the political officer of the crew wanted to agitate the rebellion in the Soviet Union and make the new revolution. The political officer locked the captain of Storozhevoy in the cabin, and then sail away from the harbor.

One thing was remarkable. The Tu-16 bombers (4) what the navy sent to destroy Storozhevoy couldn't lock on their radars to that ship, and that caused that those bombers couldn't launch their anti-ship missiles to target. The reason for that was probably the ECM-system of Storozhevoy, which denied the aiming of those missiles. That thing was translated as deny to follow the command, and that was a serious situation.

The political officer executed next year from the rebellion, but other crew members released and their career in the navy was ending. The result of that case was that the naval political control and the KGB thought the possibility "what if the mutiny was happening onboard of nuclear missile submarine?". The mutiny on board the warship is always a dangerous situation.

And the thing that made the Storozhevoy-case more dangerous is that the rebellion was lead by the political officer, who was responsible for the security of those vehicles. The role of a political officer of the navy is to listen to the problems of the crew, and then find out the plans, what might danger the Soviet system. And in nuclear submarines, another key for firing the missiles is in the hands of political officers.

The reason why the mutiny ended was that the navy (or KGB) took contact with the crew, who laid down their armament and allow special forces entry to the ship. The fact is that in this case also western nations would use force. In theory, the political officer planned that he would drive that ship to Sweden, but then he denied that idea because he was afraid that the Swedish coastal artillery would sink that ship. After all, they suspected that Krivak attempted to attack that country.

The case of frigate Storozhevoy was remarkable. That thing made the Soviet Navy make reestimation about the political control of the nuclear forces. And that thing caused the unique design of the "Typhoon-class" submarine(5), where the nuclear missiles are forward of the command center, and the reactors are behind that room. This means that during mutiny the crew cannot take the control of the nuclear missiles and engines at the same time.

But that case caused the slowing of the nuclear submarine projects of the Soviet Union. And there was probably something, that was hidden from somebody. Was something that came outside affect Valery Sablin? Was he targeted with some kind of psychological systems? Those systems could be subliminal or flash images that put in the films that displayed to the crew?

The fact is that Sablin was the only man, who was convicted in this case, and he was executed in the next year. Why the KGB or Navy were so hurry about that person, but pardon other men? There were executed people for lighter reasons than mutiny in the Soviet Union. And then another thing was, how Sablin thought that he could establish rebellion in the Soviet Union by using that frigate? Was he simply in psychosis?

Or was there something, what only Sablin knew? Was that thing some kind of acoustic weapon, what was hidden in the missile tube of that ship? Was Sablin thought that there was some kind of infrasound system in that frigate, what he thought to use in his plan? Or was he simply a maniac, who thought that he was reborn Lenin? The man who knows the answer is dead. But the case of Storozhevoy gave Tom Clancy the topic for the book "The Hunt For Red October".

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering. The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands. Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal. Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...

Facebook and dominance of the media.

The position of Facebook is dominating and that causes concern. Facebook is a well-known and commonly used service. And that thing causes that the information is starting to pile up in that service. That information contains data that we might want to hide. Facebook is a network-based service that can use for many purposes from marketing to intelligence. Facebook was down and the thing cost about half a million dollars per hour to that service. That shutdown has shown how dominating that service has been growing. Facebook is a powerful tool. It can use to track the networks of people. Artificial intelligence can show the network map of the people who are using that service. The data that travels between certain members of the network can show how often those people are contacting each other. There is a lot of criticism against Facebook but the fact is that everybody is using that thing. The attitudes toward Facebook are conflicting. People are criticizing that service ...

The networked Internet connects the world under one umbrella.
