What are the naval and geopolitcal implications of the planned sonar network in the Arctic?
I think that this is pretty big, and makes sense of a lot of the special submarine projects in Russia. Am looking to help write a follow-up article(s).
Seems to involve placing sensors with self-contained nuclear 'energykapsules' on the ocean floor under the arctic.
In Russian: http://izvestia.ru/news/623040 <not much detail and emphasizes the satellites rather than the sea floor sensors but I think that's just journalistic bias
I've also linked it to the SHELF system and ATGU (self=-contained nuclear generator). My research focusing on one of he subs involved, Belgorod: http://www.hisutton.com/Spy%20Subs%20-Project%2009852%20Belgorod.html
