Because of the Russian fleet. Britain announced the strengthening of groups in the North Atlantic

27
The United Kingdom Department of Defense has decided to strengthen its naval group in the North Atlantic. To such a decision, the military department came, according to the head of the Royal Naval fleet (Navy) of Great Britain Admiral Philip Jones, due to the growth of Russia's military potential.


Because of the Russian fleet. Britain announced the strengthening of groups in the North Atlantic


In an interview with Sky News, the admiral said that the strengthening of the British fleet grouping in the North Atlantic is a response to the increase in Russia's military capabilities. He noted that ten years ago no one could have imagined that Russia would revive its navy. The potential of the Russian fleet is impressive, Russia is clearly investing in the development of its fleet and is conducting research and development work on the planning and construction of new ships.

The main task of the reinforced grouping of the British fleet, according to the admiral, will be the protection of underwater communication lines, which carry up to 97% of world traffic, including financial transactions. According to Jones, the Russian fleet has technologies to detect and destroy such lines. The admiral said that "once Russian ships go to the North Atlantic, it means they are exploring the possibility of damaging communication cables."

    They say that midshipmen of the Federation Council suddenly began to offer from under the floor a large number of fiber optic cable at low prices. The English spies have been wary.

      hi ... They have destroyers, they don’t want to work in the south Yes ... So they drive north, closer to the base ...
      ... announced reinforcing grouping in the North Atlantic

      ... One of the most advanced warships of the Royal Navy was forced to abandon the mission to the bay after the accident. HMS Diamond had problems with a propeller that could not be secured at sea, despite the efforts of the sailors on board. The Type 45 destroyer, worth £ 1 billion, was deployed two months later. Now he is about to join the five other Navy destroyers in Portsmouth due to maintenance, a shortage of sailors, and problems with an engine that overheats in warm water.

        At least with fire extinguishers, everything will be in order - in each TA there is a “fire extinguisher”, plus a supply on board. And a “first aid kit” is also available, with the title of starley or drop. laughing And so yes, Britons have problems.

    There are vice admirals, rear admirals. There is a country next door where there are bulk admirals without a fleet. And here is a vivid example and .....- admiral without a head.

    From a sick head to a healthy one? NATO and the Britons, in particular, are doing everything to ensure that Russia modernizes and increases the amount of funds, and then panic.

    Well, the Russian Navy is also far from in a bad light now. Compared to the Soviet Navy, these are now pathetic remnants. But how many Boreev are there? three ? The Americans have the same type of Ohio class of 18 pieces. About surface ships it’s better not to even compare. We drive three unfortunate frigates across all seas and oceans. Yes, we can compete with the fleet with a single country with the same small island of Great Britain, but in general with the NATO bloc led by the USA there is a very large advantage on their side and the submarine and surface fleet
