內容簡介
1975年,駐泊在拉脫維亞首都里加的蘇聯北海艦隊“警戒”號護衛艦(為“風暴海燕”級大型反潛護衛艦,北約代號“克里瓦克”級)未經司令部允許,擅自啟錨,離開拉脫維亞首都里加附近的達烏加維河灣駐泊地,向連線里加灣和波羅的海的伊爾賓斯基海峽方向駛去。
從該艦上成功逃出的一名軍官游回里加海軍基地匯報了情況,原來是“警戒”號上發生了暴亂,負責政治工作的副艦長(相當於政委)維克多·薩布林海軍少校,指揮一夥同謀,逮捕了艦長,制服了軍官,武裝奪取戰艦,準備叛逃至瑞典。
波羅的海艦隊護衛艦、飛彈艦、海軍航空兵及部署在波羅的海地區的空軍前線轟炸航空兵,緊急出動,從空中和海上兩路攔截、追殺叛逃的軍艦,一場驚心動魄的海空聯合攔截和追殺行動就此展開。。。。。
薩布林為何要叛變?倉促應戰的蘇聯海空軍能否控制住局面?本書將為您詳盡解開。
For those who don’t recall, Tom Clancy’s novel The Hunt for Red October told the story of a vessel of the Soviet navy, under the old communist regime, that tried to defect to the West. The Last Sentry provides readers the true story behind Clancy’s premise by recording events that occurred aboard the Storozhevoy, a Krivak Frigate that tried to change the old Brezhnev-era Soviet Union, as it sailed from Riga in Latvia, then a Soviet satellite state in the Baltic. Some individuals in the Soviet KGB, Communist Party, and the West believed that the ship and its crew attempted to defect to Sweden, but the truth, as always, is a bit more complex.
In 1975 the ship’s political officer, Valery Sablin, the third-ranking officer in the Soviet naval hierarchy at the time, had become so disillusioned with the party and Premier Leonid Brezhnev in particular that he decided to launch a revolution from within by sailing the Storozhevoy into the Baltic and broadcasting a manifesto to persuade the Soviet populace to overthrow or change the regime. As authors Gregory Young and Nate Braden describe quite clearly, he was influenced by the revolutionary behavior of Russian naval officers who mutinied in 1905 after the disasters of the Russo-Japanese War. The most remarkable part of the story is that a political officer—not one of the other ship officers—decided to mutiny. During the takeover, a select group of enlisted and warrant officers locked up the captain and tried to sail out of Riga harbor, into the Baltic, and then on to Leningrad. Most Western readers will be disappointed to learn that Sablin had to no intention of going to Sweden but that he wished to instigate radical change in the Soviet Union by overthrowing Brezhnev. The KGB executed him for his role in the mutiny.
Young, a Naval Postgraduate School student, managed to unearth the facts of these events with the help of recently released Soviet-period KGB documents. Up to that time, most of the details of the mutiny had remained unknown, and reports of the incident in the open press were wrong. So-called experts could only guess at what had happened. Even the Swedish intelligence service, which possessed excellent intercept facilities, could not pierce the fog surrounding the events.
Unfortunately, The Last Sentry does not provide sufficient information about Soviet life during the Brezhnev years, which would allow readers to understand the circumstances in which Sablin reached his difficult and heroic decision. Nevertheless, historians and analysts should find this Cold War text useful to their reevaluations as more facts about that era emerge. And, of course, it is a must-read for aficionados of Tom Clancy.
