The diesel-electric submarine Kolpino is currently in dry dock at the Sevastopol Marine Plant. By February 1 next year, its repair will be completed.
This was announced during the International Maritime Business Forum by the acting General Director of the enterprise Oleg Nesterets, writes TASS. At the end of October - beginning of November 2021, the frigate Admiral Makarov will be put into dry dock, which is subject to scheduled repairs.
As Oleg Nesterets added, all operations will take a year. He noted that repairs in a dry dock cost the customer much cheaper than in a floating one. And the company has two dry docks for repairing ships up to 150 meters long and up to 25 meters wide.
Kolpino is a diesel-electric submarine of the 636.3 Varshavyanka project. It was built in St. Petersburg at the Admiralty Shipyards enterprise. It has been in service with the Black Sea Fleet since November 2016. It carries Kalibr-PL cruise missiles. The autonomy of swimming is 45 days. The crew consists of 52 people.
