The Diplomat American edition published an article about the Russian underwater fleet. According to analysts attracted to the writing of the material, the Russian Navy strengthens its capacity and is already a serious problem for NATO.
Observers illuminating military topics for The Diplomat, analyzed the possibilities of the fighting flotilla of Russia. The authors of the American publication pay attention to the fact that the Russian Federation continues to be a state with one of the largest bases of the naval forces. After the collapse of the USSR, the army equipment has undergone a number of modifications, optimizing and expanding the possibilities of weapons, equipment and technical means.
One of the main "Kozrei" of Russia today is a navy with its base of submarines. Analysts of the publication called the submarines of the Russian Federation "Pearl in the Crown of Combat Pelfons" of the country. They emphasize that the revival of the submarine fleet began with the arrival of Vladimir Putin. Thanks to the initiatives of the president, funding was increased and the reformation of this industry was carried out. The focus on naval forces allowed in 2010 to invest in their development the greatest shares of the budget of the Ministry of Defense. By the way, in 2015, the costs associated with the protection of the country from hypothetical opponents were directed about 90 billion US dollars.
Improved submarines of the "Warsyanka" were improved by the Russian Navy, the Balance of the Russian Army currently consists of eight such vessels. Also drew specialists from the United States to the submarine "Borey". It has optimized stealth features, and also can move the Bulava ballistic warheads. In the current year, the Russian Ministry of Defense intends to lower two more unmanned submarines with Poshidon nuclear missiles. Such a flotilla potential of the Russian Federation can be extremely problematic for NATO troops and their allies, if they are decided on confrontation with Russia.
In addition, the introduction of the "Caliber" impact missile missiles, which have a possibility of long-range action, is of great importance. Their use in case of conflicts will completely change the rules of the game. Now Russian military engineers are experiencing a hypersonic missile "Zircon", which will expand the offensive possibilities of flotilla. The use of guns during combat operations in Syria convinced the whole world in the enormous potential of the Armed Forces of Russia.
