Suspected Russian tracking device found by scuba divers

A team of litter-picking scuba divers have recovered what is believed to be a Russian tracking device off the Welsh coast.

Divers from Neptune's Army of Rubbish Cleaners (NARC) discovered the object on 15 November during a routine dive in the Skomer Marine Conservation Zone, off Wooltack Point in Pembrokeshire.

The team initially assumed the device was part of a navigational marker, but later suspected it resembled a sonobuoy - an acoustic monitoring device, often used to detect submarines.

An independent defence analyst said he was "confident" the recovered object was an imploded Russian RGB-1A sonobuoy.
