The Russian squadron is approaching the area of ​​​​the exercises of the US Navy in the Mediterranean

22

On Thursday, January 27, a group of three Russian large landing ships of the Northern Fleet entered the Mediterranean Sea through the Strait of Gibraltar: Olenegorsky Gornyak, Georgy Pobedonosets and Pyotr Morgunov.

The ships joined the Baltic Fleet large landing ships already in these waters, which entered the Mediterranean a few days earlier: Korolev, Minsk and Kaliningrad. Thus, the Russian squadron of six ships is approaching the area of ​​​​the NATO exercise "Strike Neptune-22", which involves an aircraft carrier group led by Harry S. Truman. According to Pentagon spokesman John Kirby, NATO military maneuvers will last from January 24 to February 4.




Meanwhile, on January 21, Russian ships of the Pacific Fleet, together with the Iranian and Chinese navies, took part in the development of common measures to counter piracy and rescue on the waters during the CHIRU 2022 exercise in the Arabian Sea. On the Russian side, the Varyag missile cruiser, the Admiral Tributs large anti-submarine ship, and the Boris Butoma large sea tanker were involved in the operations.


After joint exercises, the trio of Russian ships is heading for the Mediterranean Sea towards the ships of the Northern and Baltic fleets already there.

    Cool picture. Judging by it, they threw the Germans forward into the embrasure. Don't you feel sorry for them?

      So no one will shoot. They will disperse on their right sides, or maybe they will raise signal flags

    On Thursday, January 27, a group of three Russian large landing ships of the Northern Fleet entered the Mediterranean Sea through the Strait of Gibraltar: Olenegorsky Gornyak, Georgy Pobedonosets and Pyotr Morgunov.

    The article was published on January 31st. That is, the information is outdated by 4 days. Moreover, the media have already written about the passage of ships through Gibraltar. In four days, ships can travel about 3 km. It looks like there is no more recent information, but the information strip needs to be filled with something. Here comes the junk. Yes, this is the level of modern "journalism".

      Well, just in 4 days, the BDK reached from Gibraltar to Sicily, what don't you like?

        There is nothing about Sicily in the text.
        In the picture, if we consider it informational, only the first three have approached Sicily, and the second three are 300 km away from it.
        And thirdly - to the western part of Sicily - about 2000 km from Gibraltar.
        In fact, the ships must be in the Greek area.
        But the authors of this news needed to oppose our ships to NATO ships.
        Although it is clear that there is no opposition. This is the third article where they are trying to escalate the situation in the Mediterranean.

          Ships can be anywhere. Even where shown in the picture (although it is not known how fresh this picture is). We can only guess, based on the continuity of movement, the shortest route and a certain speed.
          Show where the ships are, MarineTraffic could, but the ships of the Navy / Navy are not reflected on it. If the squad had a tanker using AIS, then there would still be a chance to track the location. As a result, we can only believe (or not believe) messages.

          It's getting closer and closer, that's a fact. The rest is up to us to figure out.)

            The fact of the matter is that there is only one fact - they passed Gibraltar. Outdated information that has already been published.
            And then even more ancient information Meanwhile, on January 21, Russian ships of the Pacific Fleet, together with the Iranian and Chinese navies, took part which has also been published.
            The article is empty, but the intention of the authors is clear. Pump up. To put it mildly, I do not approve of such articles and such authors.

    Did these BDK sail there as targets? What will these old galoshes do to an aircraft carrier group?

      don’t worry about your own, they won’t be beaten) The BDK detachment has its own tasks that have nothing to do with the AUG led by Truman

      The carrier group will not do anything to the BDK group.
      If they are not suicidal.

        I got it! BDK at night covertly swim up to the AUG, remove the sentry, and boarding. Striped vests worn over the head, a terrible massacre, fighting bears, blood purchased in bulk from a farm in Nevada ... Airplanes that did not take off are kicked into the sea. The last frame - against the backdrop of the setting sun, two helicopters over a sinking aircraft carrier do not stand up and collide to the sobbing of the pilots, because we will die anyway - there is no gasoline, and the Russians are all around.

      American old galoshes go so much that they rusted and took a photo against the background of Russian painted ships, not a single rust.

      Yes, this carrier group was given to you. BDK is a transport that either delivers or picks up cargo that is not under the control of customs control. And the escort ships are very serious.

    After the exercises, it is necessary to occupy the territory of the English bases in Cyprus to drive the British out

    They must go under their own power to Odessa. And there - straight up the stairs - to Deribasovskaya! To the beer... laughing Their girls are waiting there: Marusya, Roza, Raya ... And the GRU resident - Vasya the Shmarovoz! lol

    The picture is nicely drawn. And I remember the "hot heads" sneezed on the radar - there are hundreds of them, sir!
    Military transport floats past the destroyer. And then another destroyer, past an aircraft carrier... My tail is already tightening. Why do you seriously want to take AUG transport workers? Can we send fighting beavers and radioactive mosquitoes?
