Submarine incident off Kildin Island

The Submarine Incident off Kildin Island was a collision between the US Navy nuclear submarine and the Russian Navy nuclear submarine B-276 ''Kostroma'' near the Russian naval base of Severomorsk, on 11 February 1992. The incident took place when the US unit was engaged in a covert mission, apparently aimed at intercepting Russian military communications. Although a majority of sources claim that the American submarine was trailing her Russian counterpart, some authors believe that neither the ''Kostroma'' nor the ''Baton Rouge'' were able to locate each other before the collision.
== Background ==

Following the 1991 fall of the Soviet Union, uncertainty prevailed among the US intelligence community about the attitude of the former Soviet forces, especially those strategic assets that remained under Russian control. The US government tasked the US Navy to continue to keep a close watch on the main bases of Russian nuclear submarines to monitor developments.〔Sontag & Drew, page 586〕 During the cold war, this kind of submarine surveillance was known as "Operation Holy Stone"; submariners nicknamed the program "Operation Pinnacle" or "Bollard".〔Reed, page 1〕 Author Jeffrey T. Richelson maintains that "Holy Stone" continued unabated, and that the 1992 incident was part of the operation.〔Richelson, Jeffrey T. (2008). ''The US intelligence community''. Westview Press, p. 234. ISBN 0813343623〕 This intelligence gathering included tapping Soviet submarine communication cables, recording the pattern of noises from Soviet submarines, and observing submarine-launched ballistic missile tests.
