With the arrival of the B-268 Velikiy Novgorod and the B-271 Kolpino in the Mediterranean at the end of August, the new submarine fleet of the Russian Black Sea Fleet will soon be complete. Once they have joined the Pontic Basin, these submersibles will join the other four units of Project 0636.3 already present in the 4th Submarine Brigade of the Black Sea Fleet. By counting the B-871 Alrosa (Project 877V), Russia will then have 7 classical submarines (SSK) operational in the Black Sea. Apart from their missions in the Pontic waters, officials of the Russian Navy have stated occasionally in recent years that these SSKs would also be required to carry out patrols in the Mediterranean. What will it really be ?

The resurrection of the Russian submarine in the Black Sea

The Black Sea fleet now has "organically" 6 SSKs from Project 0636.3; diesel submersibles designed by Rubin and built in St Petersburg by the Admiralty shipyard. These SSKs are known to the general public since December 2015, the B-237 Rostov-on-Don fired a salvo of Kalibr cruise missiles on targets in Syria. At the time of writing, the B-268 Velikiy Novgorod and the B-271 Kolpino crossed into the Mediterranean, and the Russian navy had already suggested that they could also implement Kalibr shots in the framework of the " a military operation conducted by Moscow in Syria. However, within a few days, no more than a few weeks, they should join the Black Sea and Sevastopol, where the Russian SSK are stationed, pending the commissioning of the new Novorossisk naval base at the end of the decade. In addition to the B-871 Alrosa (which underwent repairs to Sebastopol's Ship Repair Plant No. 13), the Black Sea fleet will have six new SSKs to operate mainly in the closed waters of the Pontic Basin.

Apart from the Turkish navy, which has SSK type 209 (while waiting for type 214) equipped with American torpedoes Mk 24 (Mk 48 for the future type 214), Russian submarines have hardly any competitors in the Black Sea. The Montreux Convention (1936), which governs the crossing of the Turkish Straits (Bosphorus and Dardanelles), forbids access to the Black Sea to the submarines of non-neighboring states in the Pontic basin. If the Russian Kilo would be qualitatively superior to the Turkish 209 type (thanks in particular to their weak acoustic signature), the torpedoes which equip them would be less reliable than those of American bills, embarked on the Turkish submarines. However, with their Kalibr missiles, Russian SSKs can reach from their Black Sea naval bastion any target within a radius of 2,500 kilometers. In addition, the anti-ship missiles SS-N-27 (3M54E Klub), making these submarines formidable weapons of prohibition, particularly adapted to the maritime maritime environment.

DepPM Rogozin: after infrastructure upgrade / construction of new dock (to be completed by 2020) far-eastern Zvezda shipyard will be capable of building 115,000 ts aircraft carrier

It is unlikely that Russia will be building an aircraft carrier of 115,000 tons and it will certainly not build any aircraft carrier soon but it is good to see that investments are being made.

CsKNMfr.jpg


Algeria is going to buy over 300 Russian-made BMPT-72 Terminator-2 tank support combat vehicles (TSCV), the Algerian media outlet Menadefense reported on September 9.

According to the report, Russia and Algeria signed a deal on delivery of Terminator-2 TSCVs in 2016 and Moscow will deliver the ordered combat vehicles in 2017-2018 to the Algerian military.

Algeria is going to use Terminator-2 TSCVs in order to support T-90SA main battle tanks bought from Russia earlier. Now, the Algerian military uses technical vehicles equipped with Kornet ATGM launchers and ZSU Shilka self-propelled, radar guided anti-aircraft weapon systems for this task.
