Is this whole situation just a smokescreen to divert atention from something bigger far away/nearby, or just a show of force by Russia?

I think it’s just a response to all of the NATO military exercises going on in Europe. Putin’s way of saying, “I can do that too”
“Thanks for the audio signature and intelligence, Kazan” – The Virginia Class boat underneath it.
Need to sail them out of range of Ukraine before they join Moskva as another artificial reef. Have to spin it publicly so it looks less pathetic. Largest combatant ship in the flotilla is a *frigate*. Really not the flex Putin hoped it would be.
