The U.S. Coast Guard monitored a Russian intelligence ship that sailed near the coast of Hawaii last week, the service announced Wednesday night.

The vessel was identified as Vishnya-class intelligence ship Kareliya (535), according to the Jan. 11 video released by the Coast Guard. Satellite photos from Jan. 10, reviewed by USNI News, show the Russian vessel coming as close to 40 kilometers, or approximately 25 miles, within the Hawaiian shore.

The Coast Guard continues to monitor the ship, Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh said during a press conference Thursday. The Pentagon did not know why the Russians sailed the ship near Hawaii, but Singh noted the “precarious timing.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The carrier I was on went through a Russian "fishing fleet" off San Fransicko in 1973 at 43 knots.  The intelligence people in it got quite a ride. :th_10444:
