In this episode, we examine a hypothetical naval escalation based on the 16 June 2026 incident 20 miles south of the Isle of Wight, where a Russian Navy Admiral Grigorovich-class frigate reportedly fired warning shots toward a civilian vessel. We explore how a full-scale conflict might unfold if tensions escalated further.
Using a realistic war game simulation in Sea Power, we model a rapid Royal Navy and RAF response, including F-35B Lightning II and Typhoon FGR4 jets armed with Paveway IV precision bombs and Brimstone missiles. At sea, a Type 45 destroyer deployed from Portsmouth is joined by Type 23 frigates from Devonport, capable of launching Naval Strike Missiles.
Could UK forces intercept and neutralise the Grigorovich-class frigate before it withdraws? This scenario breaks down detection, response time, and strike capability in a modern maritime engagement between UK and Russian naval forces.
