Pacific Fleet's corvettes train to destroy ships and aviation in action in the Sea of Japan

11.04.2024

The corvettes of the Pacific Fleet Sovershenny, Gromky, and Hero of the Russian Federation Aldar Tsydenzhapov have conducted joint artillery firing in one of the sea ranges in the Sea of Japan.

According to scenario, the corvettes' of the Pacific Fleet were alerted after 'enemy' detachment of ships were detected in the Sea of Japan. The Pacific Fleet's corvettes took the course in the designated area to suppress the activities of the mock enemy.

As the detachment approached the 'enemy ships', it detected the take-offs of the enemy's deck helicopters, which were destroyed by the A-190 artillery system.

The enemy then attempted a retaliatory strike, but due to the coordinated actions of corvette crews, preemptive artillery fire was inflicted on the enemy ships. The personnel also staged passive radio-electronic interference to train repelling a missile attack.

The exercise ended with AK-630M artillery fire against mock floating mines dropped from mock enemy ships.

Sea shields were used as surface targets during the manoeuvres. The event was held in accordance with the Pacific Fleet's training plan.
