The incident off the Kola Peninsula was a collision between the US Navy nuclear attack submarine USS Grayling and the Russian Navy nuclear ballistic missile submarine K-407 Novomoskovsk on 20 March 1993. The incident took place when the US unit, trailing her Russian counterpart, lost track of Novomoskovsk. By the time the Grayling located the other submarine, the distance of only a half-mile made the collision unavoidable. This occurred just a week before the first summit between American president Bill Clinton and the president of the Russian Federation, Boris Yeltsin
