Sputnik: Mystery Sub Snapped Off Finnish Coast

An unknown submarine was captured on camera, sailing off the coast of Finland, local media reported Monday.

The picture was taken by a fisherman on board a Finnish trawler in international waters southwest of the capital Helsinki. The fisherman, who asked not to be named, said the sub was 800 meters away and heading east.

“Submarines use certain types of signals when they are surfaced and, moving closer, we could clearly see its silhouette,” he added.

WNU Editor: The picture was taken in international waters off the coast of Finland .... but it shows how close these subs can come when they surface.

Update: The Latvians are also spotting subs near their "waters" .... Latvian Military Claims to Have Spotted 2 Russian Warships, Sub Near Border (Sputnik).
