Improved.

This is coolbert:

Russian submarine force the Black Sea on the move. Russian navy their contribution to the Ukraine Conflict continues with vigor. Black Sea a sideshow of the war but still relevant.

"Russia puts 5 submarines to sea from Sevastopol media reports"

"Five submarines out of seven in the Black Sea Fleet of Russia have put to sea from Sevastopol."

From Ukrayinska Pravda [Ukrainian Truth] dated 30 JUNE 2022. Tip via yahoo.com

Source: Krym.Realii [online portal focusing on the Crimea, part of Radio Svoboda’s Ukrainian service]

Details: "According to the publication’s correspondent, two Project 636.3 Varshavyanka submarines [improved Kilo class] from the 4th Separate Submarine Brigade are in the Southern Bay of Sevastopol. The submarines are berthed on the eastern shore of the Bay."

"The Russian Black Sea Fleet reportedly has 6 Varshavyanka [Improved Kilo class] Project submarines . . . It also has one Project 877B [Kilo] Paltus submarine, the Alrosa."

"According to Krym.Realii, the Alrosa left for sea trials on 28 June after an 8-year overhaul at the 13th ship repair plant of the Russian Black Sea Fleet. The submarine moved away from the shipyard’s berth in Kilen Bay and, after passing through the boom gate, entered Sevastopol’s outer anchorage."

"For reference: Varshavyanka project submarines carry Kalibr cruise missiles.  The Alrosa can also carry this type of missile after modernization."

As was observed before 24 February the Russian navy was reinforcing the Black Sea fleet, warships transiting the Bosphorus/Dardanelles/Hellespont prior to hostilities in the Ukraine commencing. Preparing for war, were we comrade!

BLACK SEA FLEET SUBMARINES NOT INTERESTED IN ENEMY FLEET ACTIVITY. NONE OF WHICH HARDLY EXISTS BUT SMALL WATERCRAFT. SUBMARINES THEIR MISSION FIRING BATTLE-TESTED KALIBR CRUISE MISSILES AT INLAND TARGET AS DESIGNATED.
