How Russian submarines altered 1971 Indo-Pak War

Just like the intricate alliances and power plays in Game of Thrones, the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War was shaped by surprising alliances and bold moves! Fifty-two years ago, the nuclear-powered USS Enterprise from the US 7th Fleet was en route to the Bay of Bengal to intervene in support of Pakistan. The US aimed to halt the Indian Army’s advance into East Pakistan (now Bangladesh). Although no explicit orders were given, the USS Enterprise’s mission could have included attacking Indian military bases. However, the Soviet Union (Russia today) alerted India to the potential US intervention. In response, the Indian Army sought volunteer pilots willing to take drastic measures. The Soviet Navy Chief, Admiral Gorshkov, made a strategic move by ordering a Soviet SSGN submarine to reveal its presence to a US reconnaissance satellite, showcasing the Soviet presence. This bold action deterred the US Navy, prompting the USS Enterprise to redirect towards Sri Lanka instead of the Bay of Bengal.
