US one decision changed the balance of power in the Sea of ​​Azov

70

The situation on the Sea of ​​Azov is not changing for the better for Russia. At one step, the Pentagon dramatically changes the balance of power in favor of Ukraine. The USA will deliver to Kiev at once 16 combat boats of the Mark VI type, and this is not some sort of decommissioned junk.

Last April became is known about the intention of the Ukrainian authorities to open a naval base on Azov in Berdyansk. The base was called "East", under it new berths, warehouses, barracks and administrative buildings are being built. It will serve up to 500 people. Initially, it was reported that two-thirds of the 12 boats of the Azov flotilla of the Navy will be Ukrainian-made, and the rest are Mark VI American patrol boats. But now in Washington they decided to sharply increase the number of their small vessels.



“Mark VI” is a modern development, the United States intends to get them in the amount of 48 pieces, and NATO allies are also very interested in them. For the conditions of shallow Azov, this boat is almost perfect. Its displacement is 72 tons, the speed reaches 48 knots. The small ship is heavily armed: two automatic 25-mm gun mounts Mk 38 Mod 2, as well as six 7,62 mm and 12,7 mm machine guns on turrets. In addition, after modernization, small-sized missiles of the AGM-176C Griffin B (Block II) type can be installed on new boats. And this is serious: despite the relatively modest size and short range, these missiles represent a real danger not only for Russian patrol boats, but even for small warships. In the conditions of the Azov puddle, the American Mark VI as part of the Navy can, if necessary, do things.

The first boats will arrive in Ukraine this year, and the full contract will be completed by 2022. Its amount is 600 million dollars, under the contract, training of Ukrainian crews and technical support. Small boats can be easily transported to Berdyansk by land. Together, all this means a new headache for the Russian Defense Ministry.

Yes, “Mark VI” is not like our Black Sea Fleet, but the problem is that its ships are not based on Azov on a permanent basis. The Black Sea Fleet and the Caspian Flotilla are actively engaged in supporting operations in the Mediterranean, supporting our group in Syria. The safety of the Sea of ​​Azov is guaranteed by patrol boats and patrol ships of the Coast Guard of the FSB of the Russian Federation. Russia will have to react to the appearance of an additional threat from Berdyansk by transferring forces from other important sectors, and these resources are not unlimited.

Ultimately, apparently, it will be necessary to create a separate Azov flotilla in order to stop the threat from the "East". In just one step, the Pentagon sharply increased the military spending of the Russian Defense Ministry. And after all, there is no guarantee that the further militarization of the region will stop there.

It should be recognized that the current situation, like the “Kerch Breakthrough”, is a direct consequence of the decisions of 2014. Then, Berdyansk, and the strategically important Mariupol, and Ochakov, where the NATO military base is being built, and Odessa, where American warships are constantly visiting, could, if not become part of Russia, be under its actual control. But what has not been done is not done. Now we have to disentangle, paying an ever greater price for this.

    How how!??! But how?? CATER can affect the balance of power at sea ????? laughing What can they do. Attack the Azov flotilla? And yes, it is. From the Black Sea to the Azov Sea in May 2018 !! about 40 boats, combat boats ", including boats of the FSB and the Ministry of Defense. Also, two small missile ships were deployed to the Sea of ​​Azov (which left in 19, but on constant rotation there). Oh yes, there is still a full" 4th army "with coastal complexes and So, the question is - what can "patrol boats"?

      Yes, like that. Don't you know that a boat can even change the tactics of warfare at sea. Study the attack by an Egyptian boat on an Israeli destroyer. Nobody and nothing there, naturally, changes tactically now. There is only saturation of the water basin of the Sea of ​​Azov with ships hostile to Russia. And this is a reason for a political game. And military affairs are directly related to political capabilities. So? Ushakov? And your victorious release, warming the souls of the uramarginal public, will anger them next time with tactical capabilities at the base of the Ukrainian flotilla. Learn to think globally. Not as a tactician. As a strategist. Greetings from "Toll!" laughing
      It was necessary to take all the coasts of the Sea of ​​Azov in 2014. And now we would not even blame it. Do you agree with me, Ushakov? bully

        You rave, dear, in your global thinking, the strategist of you is the same as me, a 100kg ballerina. Especially enchanting is the comparison of the MRK of the project 183-P with 2! 2 tons! RCC P-15 on board with a boat carrying small-caliber artillery and rackets with a theoretical range of up to 20 km)), against 40 and BG 480 against 5,9 kg))). So they will change the balance that the difference will be at the level of statistical error. But global school-strategists-alarmists are an occasion to shout - polymers are lost.

    Yes, how can one not recall the words of W. Churchill:

    If a country chooses shame between war and shame, it will receive both war and shame.

    There is still some kind of "grain of truth" in them, although this was said about the "Munich Treaty" back in 1938, and not about the modern - "Minsk" ...
    Such nimble and super-armed light combat boats (as if specially designed for the shallow Azov Sea with its general deep-water fairway from Taganrog to the Black Sea in view of the Ukrainian Berdyansk) and in such a number are not at all caricature self-thrusts - absolutely non-navigable " "a very important" piece of toilet bowl) ", trying to unauthorized" break through "under the Crimean bridge.
    Moreover, if the banderopeteks soon cut the Crimean Isthmus with a navigable canal and from this the sabotage boat base in Ochakov "will leap out with new colors" in the Azov Sea ... defenders of the insurgent Donbass!

        hi Very much Dear comrade Oyo Sarkazmi, you, perhaps, also reason, like our "virtually belligerent" Russian (and some transcordon emigrants from the ex-USSR) colleagues, who "patriotically" gave me disadvantages for the common reasons expressed ?! wink
        But who of the Kiev Maidan authorities will declare war on Russia in an explicit way, who will decide on such suicidal recklessness ??! winked
        And if there is no "official war", then some kind of "tanks" or "attack aircraft" (even if not "three or four", but, at least, one!) will "cover with the amount of explosives" Berdyansk IN VIEW (Dear comrade, my Site Moderator, "correcting the spelling of comments", I beg your pardon for the grumpy edification, is written in this case separately, since-IN VISIBILITY, AND NOT IN SEE, for example, the prevailing circumstances! hi ) the shores of which the general navigable fairway dug in the bottom of the Sea of ​​Azov passes, or "sink in one fell swoop" in the Berdyansk (Ochakov) base ~ 16 high-speed combat boats "Mark VI" and the n-th number of support vessels ??! winked
        All these sabotage boats were "granted" by Washington to their w / banderoholuyam in order to carry out "mosquito bites" in PEACE TIME - pirate provocations against Russia in the waters of the Azov and Black Seas, directly off the coast of Crimea, contributing to the escalation of anti-Russian "tension" in the Azov-Black Sea pool!
        And how the Fashington "Goebbelsuchs" know how to "inflate" such sea and land provocations in their favor, I’m not telling you, the "concerns" of the Russian Foreign Ministry are innumerable, and the "world community" will be convinced by the "non-human media" that this is all " Russia has attacked "! request
        Even the banderopiteks themselves with a mortgage charge will explode one or two of their boats with unsuspecting bad crews to blame the Russian Navy for this!
        How the "Maidan authorities" "pity" their sailors, already well, it was clearly seen from the last incident near the Crimean bridge - they did not feel sorry for them at all, they were just annoyed that the Russians had not killed anyone then and not a single "ukrodreadnaught" had been sunk, not It turned out that Giblets crowed about the alleged "bloody aggression of Russia" and demonstrated "on the international platform" bloody pieces of the boat hull (Ze will already do this)!
        These boats are easy to maneuver (including by land and by air - "Mriya" and "Ruslans" are still at the disposal of the banders!) Between the waters of the theater-passage under the Crimean bridge they do not need!
        Now it will be much harder for the defenders of the DNR coastal borders, since the advantage in combat boats for Bandera Nazis will be provided!
        The fact that the Crimean Isthmus will soon be dug by a navigable canal and the Anglo-American submarine-sabotage Ochakovskaya naval base will dominate the base of the Crimea, if the "Maidan power" lasts longer, this is not going to grandmother-Washington and London is necessary for military reasons!
        What the British are capable of in underwater sabotage actions, they have successfully shown back during the Second World War and since then they have never disbanded or "reformed" destructively (unlike the Soviet and post-Soviet Navy), they have only multiplied the traditions of successful operations!
        And now they are also enriched with experience and the Ochakov base of Soviet underwater saboteurs!
        So, in the absence of adequate opposition from Russia and the Russian Navy, the trouble with the Anglo-Americans and their Banderonazi servants in the Azov-Black Sea region near the Crimea is coming many times more - "don’t throw hats”, alas!
        You need to take it seriously and react, as far as possible, preventively, and not, already "in fact" of another anti-Russian provocation, to express "ridiculous" concerns in a victim-diplomatic way! request

          Respected beeper! Russia somehow inadvertently expanded the powers of the Investigative Committee and the Russian prosecutor's office in Eastern Ukraine. And the criminal crimes committed by citizens, military and non-military, of Ukraine, on the territory of Ukraine, somehow more and more often become the cause of arrest. Some kind of artillery major. Some functionary of the Right Sector. Some kind of ex-official. Well, Ukraine is tired, but there is no money for Poland. We went to Voronezh, Belgorod, Moscow. And crouched. Of course, there is a chance that they will be traded, but in the case of sabotage against Russian citizens, there are more chances to get 25 years old than to be exchanged. After the service, the sailors will go to the merchant fleet. On the Don, Volga, in the Novorossiysk shipping company. There’s simply nowhere to go.
          As for sustained strikes, Israel in Syria also shows the admissibility of such tactics.
          And the noise ... We appointed the President of the United States, all Turners and Murdochs were let down on us - is this hot or cold? People are foreign, let them give what they give.

            hi This expansion of powers of the Russian IC pleases, dear Oy Sarkazmi!
            At least some threat, someday, to answer for their anti-national war crimes (they are - without a statute of limitations!) A little worries punitive "heroes of the ATO", I know such "volunteers" from neighbors who now simply do not go to " earnings "in Russia - they have enough of their" military pension ", a very preferential payment for housing and communal services and the morale in the Donbass.
            It is a pity that the cases of a descendant of war criminals are almost isolated, but you yourself admit this ?! request
            With the punitive officers (many with families) of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the "dobrobats" who had a good rest in Crimea, as well as the "sbushniki" who did not know what they were doing on the peninsula, in previous years they had to return home from the South Coast - after the "passage" of the Russian border crossing to the Ukrainian side, they did not they are encrypted (they are not afraid of us, their frightened compatriots, they can always kill a Ukrainian citizen and declare that the murdered was a "separatist" and attacked a "hero" - for this they have no punishment, only honor and encouragement, only Yesterday my neighbor, who had a lot of "zarobitschivat" in Russia, boasted how easy it was to kill local civilians in the Donbass and that he did not mind repeating, but he, "avatar", is not taken now "on a contract"!) because they have and require travel privileges, including those from "Crimean carriers"!

              In principle, you, dear Oyo Sarkazmi, like some other Russian colleagues, "go away" from sad realities into self-deceiving "light" theorizing - "yes we, yes we have, ..."
              But so far, alas, nothing of this, "a tough response from Russia" is not and is not very much "foreseen", since the Russian (as well as the Ukrainian!) Bourgeois "top" keeps "hard work" from the overseas hucksters and is under the supervision of Washington "common people "!
              Although, of course, President Vladimir Putin, as a true Patriot of Russia, is trying to do something good, but he is a "galley slave" in his, mostly pro-American, entourage! request
              It is not a fact that whoever succeeds him as President of the Russian Federation will be at least the same Patriot of Russia as he will be able to act more freely and decisively against anti-Russian provocateurs!
              The fact is that our Russian Spring, with its anti-oligarchic slogans and demands to nationalize the "grabbed" National Soviet Property, the desire to unite with Russia, helped to stifle the Russian authorities, recognizing the legitimacy of the Kiev coup, supplying fuels and lubricants, spare parts and transferring irrationally " returning "to their Kiev colleagues" in business (we remember the Russian plenipotentiary, a molded partner and friend of Bloody Giblets!) "serviceable weapons and military equipment," forgotten "- left by the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Naval Forces of Ukraine in Crimea (and this is at the beginning of the Banderonazi offensive and on the hottest days battles in Donbass!)!

          A war, or a serious military conflict in which Ukraine will lose another Crimea, or several of them, can begin without Ukraine declaring war on the Russian Federation, for example, by shelling the Crimean bridge, or another Bandera dirty trick. Putin will not be able to forever turn a blind eye to the fishing trawlers stolen from the Russian Federation, otherwise the voters in the Russian Federation will very often start to ask him very uncomfortable questions and look at him as the last ... and he has a rating today and is so much lower than 60%, and that’s the officially announced figure ... the real one is even lower ... So, Vova will simply be forced to besiege the Bandera hamlo by the power of Russian weapons ... otherwise neither the people nor the army will understand him ...

    Sergey, you forget only one thing. ALL Ukraine is located in the zone of defeat of cruise missiles of the Russian Federation, Ukraine’s air defense systems are still Soviet-made and it has long been without licensed maintenance and modernization, and most of them are without any repairs at all, and judging by the air defense systems of Ukraine left in Crimea, there is often nothing This is scrap metal. The missile boat base of Ukraine on the Sea of ​​Azov is destroyed by the Russian Federation with one missile strike. The same Iskander has a range of 600 km, Iskander-M is already 2500 km ... I'm not talking about everything else ... for example, about the new Onyx-M supersonic anti-ship missiles with a range of 800 km ... and the non-upgraded missile had 300 km range ... To destroy all of this Bandera herd, you need only an order from the Kremlin!

    The problem is not that the author has a trash heap in his head .... And not even that while Putin was "asleep" in 2014 (shta?), The author stormed Berdyansk from the couch ....
    The problem is that there is nothing of this .... No boats, no contract, no base, no money ...
    There are Mriy ...
    And when two "superboats" (this is not Mriya) with a displacement of 80 tons fall into the Sea of ​​Azov, the impact on the course of events and expenses of the RF Ministry of Defense, this "steep step" of the Pentagon and the ruins will have the same as a bauble on the wrist of a hippie girl with the inscription "pis ", on the result of his street fight with a gang of Lyuber ...

    In practical terms, attempts to attack Russia or strike at Russian military facilities will mean for Ukraine a complete geopolitical catastrophe and the loss of its statehood.

    Bullshit is complete. Firstly, on the screen of a modern radar it will be visible for 30 miles. Secondly, the firing range of a 25-mm cannon is, well, a mile, well, maybe a little more. A return fire from 76 mm, and even more so 100 mm - many times further.
    And in general, to fight on a PATROL boat against real ships - it seems not a very healthy idea.
    They may also try to capture another steamer at sea. A tanker with diesel fuel is a sweet deal. But it’s also dumb, the decision-makers from Rosneft will come to Kiev, and Zelensky will be hanged for such jokes on the balcony for such jokes.

    Nobody takes Azov seriously since the mid-60s. It is viewed from all sides, completely shot through. Tactical aircraft can fly wherever they want without refueling. But - O horror! The Americans are going to put coastal boats. How scary to live.
    PS The only purpose of all this, if the delivery takes place at all, is to provoke our Navy to a tough response in case of provocations from Ukraine. It's unavoidable. Then the United States will have a "legitimate" reason to keep its fleet in the Sea of ​​Azov. It will be small. One, maximum - three destroyers with cruise missiles and missile defense. But this will already be unpleasant.

      There is one question. How will the Americans patrol the Sea of ​​Azov? The Sea of ​​Azov is not considered an international sea! And it is considered the sea of ​​coastal states! If one state does not agree with the deployment of the fleet of the third state. This fleet cannot be deployed! Otherwise, it will be destroyed! Russia is not China, we’ll give a damn!) When they asked the American billionaires, the United States was ready to risk New York or Washington for the sake of Kiev and Warsaw. In response there was deathly silence ...

    And how much will the maintenance of these boats cost?
    After all, even the last Ukrainian should be clear that the Americans will not allow them to serve these pan-leg boats. And serving Americans is expensive.
    Does Ukraine have a lot of money?

    I see in this all the frivolity of the talk that the Americans will deliver something. And money? Whether there is money or not, that is the question. There is no money in an independent one, which means that the question disappears by itself. Americans without money give nothing to anyone, especially Ukraine.

      First, friends must be made and created, which for today the government of the Russian Federation by its actions only loses. Secondly, it is dangerous for Ukraine to start military operations with the Russian Federation, that Ukraine will lose a lot in a military conflict. Thirdly, it is necessary to end the military confrontation with Ukraine and with increasing victims and hatred of Russia: by joining the DPR and LPR to the Russian Federation, or surrendering to Ukraine under autonomy ... Surkov (a Jewish mother) unleashed a war between Slavic neighboring peoples and it is time to end the unnecessary bloodshed harmful to the future of both nations ...
