      In essence, the composite body is almost eternal. It is not afraid of corrosion, water salinity, and I think the material does not get tired, like metal. At the same time, it is much simpler to upgrade or generally reorganize during modernization such a case than metal. Well, the repair of a fiberglass case is much easier than metal.

        Regarding the repair and modernization of such a building, everything is exactly the opposite! A piece of metal will be welded in any dock, and this fiberglass can only be repaired at this factory (if they can), I am silent about modernization. Yes, and it looks like a miracle, as if from the 60s sailed.

      What kind of pimpochka? What the hell out of the minesweeper is over-maneuverability? Wait, the Kazanka-MB will be lowered for 120 wooden ones. Here we’ll talk.
