TSAMTO, August 3. On August 3, a conference call with the leadership of the Armed Forces was held at the National Defense Management Center of the Russian Federation under the leadership of the head of the military Department, Army General Sergei Shoigu.
In the thematic part of the conference call, two issues were considered.
The first concerned the implementation of the state contract for the repair and modernization of the heavy nuclear missile cruiser (TARK) "Admiral Nakhimov".
According to the Minister of Defense, the work is being carried out at the Sevmash enterprise as part of the implementation of the state defense order. Upon their completion, the Russian Navy will receive a ship equipped with powerful strike weapons, the most modern anti-aircraft missile and anti-submarine complexes.
