US military aircraft "hunt" for Russian submarines in the Mediterranean

An American P-8 Poseidon aircraft hunted for Russian substrates in the Mediterranean.

This afternoon, the resource Avia.pro obtained information that an American military aircraft was again seen near the coast of Lebanon and Syria. We are talking about the US Navy P-8 Poseidon aircraft, while it has not yet been possible to establish for certain whether it is a reconnaissance version of the aircraft or an anti-submarine aircraft.

Experts do not exclude that the American military aircraft could search for two Russian submarines, which had previously gone to the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea, but so far nothing is known about their location, which could cause great interest in the United States.

Moreover, it is noted that during the flight near Russian military bases, the crew of the American aircraft turned off the transponders in order to reduce their visibility for civilian-type identification means, however, given the fact that the re-activation of the aircraft's transponders was carried out an hour later, the search operation Russian submarines, as well as the reconnaissance operation near Russian military bases was short-lived.

It should be clarified that since the beginning of this year, American aircraft have increasingly begun to appear next to the Russian military bases, which indicates serious provocations.
