The Russian Defense Ministry is completing the construction of the final three submarine berths in the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk (930 miles south of Moscow). According to a RBTH source in the military-industrial complex, the Black Sea Fleet’s new base will host six Varshavyanka class Project 636.6 submarines.
“Currently, three of them are already in the city’s harbor – the Rostov-on-Don, Novorossiysk and Stary Oskol,” the source said.
“Each submarine is equipped with underwater torpedoes to combat surface ships and Kalibr missiles, which have demonstrated their combat power in Syria, including the ability to hit targets at a distance of up to 2,500 km.”
