the Second October Revolution of 1976

i saw year ago a TV Doku about

USSR Battleship crew attempt to start second Octobert Revolution in 1976

but attempt failed and ther Leader was executed

got some more Information about this ?
(nothing on Wiki or with search engine)
 
Thanks a lot, CanadianGoose

had Valery Sablin a Chance ?
his plan was to take a missile frigate the Storozhevoy, then move from the Gulf of Riga to Leningrad,
from where he would, by radio and television, recount the sins and hypocrisy of the Soviet system and demand reforms.

this sounds more like The Battleship Potemkin
But the Storozhevoy has 1x4 SS-N-14 Silex ASW missiles and 2x SA-N-4 SAM Missile systems (40 missiles)

This event was the inspiration for Tom Clancy's first novel The Hunt For Red October. In fact, Valery Sabin's mentioned in the book.
