Within the final phase of the state tests of ship hardware, the ship fired cruise missiles of various types were at naval target positions. The ship’s crew also completed a missile deployment test.

Due to the stormy weather expected in the next few days, the frigate will stay at the Belomorskaya naval base of the Northern Fleet. When the weather conditions are fine again the ship will continue hardware tests in the White Sea.

These are powerful frigates. The second, the Admiral Kasatonov, has also been launched and is outfitting.



The Russians desperately need 12-16 of these to replace the older Sovremenny and Udaloy destroyers.

07/04/2016 - MOSCOW (Sputnik) -
Su-34 fighter-bombers that participated in the air operation launched by Russia in Syria, will be modernized and will carry more weapons, reported the Russian Deputy Defense Minister Yuri Borisov.



"We plan to modernize the aircraft and provide it with more weapons," Borisov was quoted by the press office of the Ministry of Defence said.

The military said that the Su-34 "enjoys high demand in the Army (* Air Force) and has an excellent future."
In 2008 the Russian Ministry of Defense ordered 32 Su-34 fighter-bombers and in 2012 ordered 92 more planes.

So the Russian Aerospace Force would receive 124 of these planes by 2020.

"The aviation plant in Novosibirsk should assemble 14 aircraft Su-34 a year, but works to plan ahead and order is likely to be completed before the deadline," said Deputy Defense Minister.

In late September 2015, Russia launched at the request of an air offensive Damascus in Syria to stop the advance of terrorists Daesh (or Islamic State, outlawed in Russia).

The operation lasted five and a half months, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense, helped stop the supply of arms and ammunition to the radical, closing the main oil traffic channels and eliminate thousands of jihadists.
