Is this the one that changed its name and flag to Russia while underway (very illegal), and got a RU submarine escort?

Yes. Though both name changed and registering the ship under Russian flag is legal under international law of law of the sea. And by that law, only the country under which flag ship is registered under have jurisdiction. So only US broken the law here.
