**Nuclear Submarine**
Highly likely that the Russian Navy has deployed a nuclear-powered submarine to the Mediterrean. This may be an AKULA class attack submarine, but is unconfirmed.

**Cruisers**
Both SLAVA Class cruisers active in the Mediterrean are believed to be west of Crete. They are Marshal Ustinov from the Northern Fleet and Varyag from the pacific Fleet. One was visible on satellite imagery recently.

**Other Combatants**. Admiral Grigorovich frigate , and the Buyan-M class corvette Orekhov, in Eastern Mediterrean.
They can both carry 3M54T Kalibr (SS-N-27 SIZZLER) or P-800 Oniks (SS-C-5 STOOGE) Missiles anti-ship missiles. They can also carry land-attack cruise missiles.
