	The Komsomolets Disaster
		Komsomolets means "member of the Young Communist League." She was launched in May 1983 in Severodvinsk, a closed Soviet city on the Barents Sea with the world's largest shipyard.
		Komsomolets, of the Soviet Northern Fleet, is cruising at 1,250 feet below the surface of the Norwegian Sea, some 100 miles southwest of Bjornoya (Bear Island) and 200 miles to the north of the Norwegian mainland.
		Komsomolets' after ballast tanks are not equipped with kingston valves that would close under water, and her pressure hull has been breached.

	Soviet submarine K-278 Komsomolets - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		K-278 Komsomolets was the only Project 685 Плавник (Plavnik, meaning "fin", also known by its NATO reporting name of "Mike"-class) nuclear-powered attack submarine of the Soviet Navy.
		Project 685 was tasked with developing an advanced submarine that could carry a mix of torpedoes and cruise missiles with conventional or nuclear warheads.
		In 1993, Vice Admiral (ret.) Chernov founded the Komsomolets Nuclear Submarine Memorial Society, a charity to support the widows and orphans of his former command.

		As a result of an onboard fire, Komsomolets sank on April 7, 1989, at a depth of 1700 meters in the Norwegian Sea, 180 miles to the south of Medvezhy Island.
		The main purposes of these expeditions are the research of ecological situation on the wreck and in her vicinity, detailed study of the distortions of the body, and monitoring of the conditions inside of the bow part of the submarine, where two torpedoes with nuclear heads are located.
		The Komsomolets wreck is located very close to the continent and lies in an area of Norwegian industrial fishing, which is one reason for concern regarding the future.

	CNS - Komsomolets: A Disaster Waiting to Happen?
		The sinking of the Komsomolets is only one in a series of accidents involving the Soviet fleet of nuclear-powered submarines and ships.
		By tonnage and speed, the Komsomolets is within the range of the latest US attack submarines of the Los Angeles-class.[1] The Komsomolets was built and based near Murmansk and was designed, according to a Soviet Navy officer, to test technologies, materials, and operations at great depths.
		In April 1989, the Soviet Navy indicated its intention to raise the Komsomolets.

	imr - 'Komsomolets' — the sunken nuclear submarine in the Norwegian Sea — a possible environmental problem? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		A Komsomolets Foundation has been established consisting of the Russian constructor of the submarine, a Dutch salvaging consortium and some environmentally oriented parties.
		The goal of this foundation is to get international financial support for its plans to either salvage the submarine totally, to salvage the torpedo part or to seal off the torpedo part of the submarine.
		Radioactive components in the wreck which may be dissolved and spread in the water masses, include cesium-137 and strontium-90.

		After crash of Komsomolets a number of issues emerged: if radioactive pollution was possible, if plutonium and other radioactive substances could get into water, who was to blame and what to do.
		The submarine sank in the EEZ of Norway.
		Komsomolets was the primary objective of the CSUA, but the committee also had to deal with all radioactive and chemical items dumped in the sea.

	ACP - Lubitel-2
		The Komsomolets was manufactured from 1946 to 1951 in a quantity of 306.743 (according to LOMO; Princelle mentions a figure of 25.000 and Ryshkov of 28.000 -- more than a factor ten lower).
		The model A is sometimes marked "Model A" on the viewfinder hood, and is distinguishable from the Model B by its mechanical frame counter, as opposed to the red window in the B model.
		Gradually or not, in 1949 (according to factory data, although this would mean a two-year overlap with the Komsomolets, which I think is unlikely), the Lubitel saw the light.

		Subsequent to the WTEC panel's visits, in August of 1993, Fish 103 was involved in three dives to Komsomolets, during which time the ROV penetrated the first compartment of the stricken submarine, operating there for a total of 5 hours and recording 4 hours of video.
		This fish was used to investigate the wreckage of the Mike class submarine Komsomolets, which is lying on its side in 1,400 m of water.
		The Komsomolets nuclear submarine was obviously the genesis of this capability.

		Analysis of the mass media in 2001 did not reveal any hard evidence of the media outlets’ involvement in the propaganda of xenophobia or of proactive opposition to it.
		Having analyzed the probable causes of the bombings and their impact on inter-ethnic relationships, the paper came to the conclusion that this was essentially a war between destroyers and creators, between order and chaos, and that religion was used as a cover to mask the real background of the events (6).
		The paper also voiced its concern over the growing activities of another radical movement, “For God’s Power.” The members of this group believe that a Jewish conspiracy is at the core of all of humanity’s current problems (12).

	Handling of disaster may tarnish Putin
		But the government's handling of the incident is likely to dent Putin's standing with the military, which has been one of his biggest supporters.
		The government's conduct has prompted the news media and the public to recall Soviet-era disasters, when officials were more preoccupied with keeping information under wraps and shifting blame than helping victims.
		In 1989, the Komsomolets submarine caught fire and sank off Norway, killing 42 of the 69 sailors aboard.

		They were apparently made between 1946 and 1950, and although Princelle suggests the Komsomolets is an exact copy of a 1937 Brilliant I have yet to see a Brilliant identical to any of the Komsomolets I am aware of.
		The Komsomolets that Princelle lists has a simple 3 speed shutter of a similar appearance to that of a Voigtlander Brilliant V6 shutter.
		The opportunity to add the improved Voigtlander Brilliant viewfinder hood was not taken, and the Lubitel, like the Komsomolets has the simpler V6 style hood.

		However, the second round of that election came in the immediate aftermath of the major hostage crisis at a Moscow theater, and "Moskovskii komsomolets" commented on 27 September that the Kremlin might have turned a blind eye to the numerous campaign violations during that poll out of considerations for stability in the region.
		Shondzhiev told "Moskovskii komsomolets" on 23 September, following the Elista protest, that the Kremlin supports Ilyumzhinov because "the central authorities do not want another [source of] tension in the North Caucasus" in the wake of the hostage taking in Beslan, North Ossetia, last month.
		In the cases of both Tatarstan and Kalmykia, there seems to be unexpected support from local political elites for Putin's proposal to eliminate the direct election of regional-administration heads.

		Yumashev reportedly told the journalists that, were the siloviki in Putin's inner circle to prevail, it would lead not only to a redistribution of the country's financial flows and zones of economic influence, but as well to changes in the ideology of the country's leadership and its domestic and foreign policies.
		The newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets, which reported Yumashev's comments, itself claimed that the battle "for control over financial flows" within the presidential administration and the cabinet between the Yeltsin-era holdovers and the St. Petersburg ex-KGB group had reached a new stage.
		Moskovsky Komsomolets and a number of other media also gave significance to a report aired earlier this week on the Moskoviya television channel that a leading Family member, Kremlin administration chief Aleksandr Voloshin, had tendered his resignation (Moskovsky Komsomolets, Nezavisimaya Gazeta, November 28; Izvestia.ru, November 27).

	Moskovsky Komsomolets Publishes "insider" Account Of Hut Activities - Eurasia Daily Monitor
		On July 19, 2004, the Russian newspaper Moskovsky komsomolets published a sensational article entitled, "200 Days of Jihad." The author of the article, Svetlana Meteleva, is a special correspondent who claimed to be sharing her "insider" observations regarding the activities of Hizb-ut-Tahrir, the Islamic Party of Liberation.
		Currently members of this party, who arrived in Russia from Central Asia (Meteleva says she was recruited by Uzbeks), are actively engaged in propaganda activities and working to attract as many supporters as possible.
		This is precisely the scenario that members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization had in mind during their recent summit in Tashkent, where they inaugurated the Regional Anti-Terrorist Structure, which is intended to facilitate information sharing about terrorism.
