It's Red October after Sean Connery gave it to the West ?
 
I think it's having its magnetic signature wiped clean?
If I remember right, all subs have to be put in a 'cage' of live electric cables like that every once in a while to get rid of any magnetic charge that may have built up in the hull when at sea.
De-magnetizing makes it harder for enemy sensors to detect them when they're submerged.
 
And the winner POS gets a fantastic 1 month trip under the Atlantic in this great submarine...
