00:00What's your understanding of what the Yantar is doing on the edge of British waters?
00:05Well, the Yantar is becoming a familiar visitor to shores off Britain.
00:12It's a specialist intelligence vessel.
00:14It's a highly capable surveillance platform which can look at the seabed.
00:19It can analyse. It can map.
00:22It can also put little drones down to actually look at what's going on on the bottom.
00:26It's also hoovering up all sorts of electronic emissions.
00:30It can intercept signals, intelligence, communications, things like that.
00:34And so if you've got a radar operating, for example, then it'll pick up all the characteristics of that radar.
00:39It'll listen to mobile phone calls. It'll listen to all sorts of unguarded communications.
00:44It's a prime intelligence resource, and we've known it for a long time.
