TSAMTO, November 9th. The frigate Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Gorshkov made the transition from the main base of the Northern Fleet – Severomorsk on the Kola Peninsula - to the city of Severodvinsk on the White Sea to continue the testing program of modern sea-based weapons.
During the passage by sea, the ship's crew improved naval training and prepared for the upcoming tasks.
At the end of October, the frigate "Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Gorshkov" in the training grounds of the Northern Fleet in the Barents Sea practiced anti-aircraft missile firing at sea and air targets with the new complex "Poliment-Redut". Also, the crew of the ship conducted joint training with the personnel of a separate ship's anti-submarine helicopter regiment, providing night flights of Ka-27 helicopters to the deck of the frigate during parking in the Kola Bay.
For reference:
The first-rank frigate Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Gorshkov is the lead ship of Project 22350. This is the first combat ship of the ocean zone, fully designed and built in modern Russia. The ships of this project have great modernization potential, including as carriers of promising sea-based weapons.
Currently, two ships of the project 22350 are operating as part of the Northern Fleet missile ships compound: "Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Gorshkov" and "Admiral of the Fleet Kasatonov", the press service of the Northern Fleet reports.
