    Something our sworn partners frequented ...

    It is necessary to create a sanatorium in Cuba for crews of strategic submarines.

    - vitamins, sun, sand, warm sea, rum, cigars, local prostigospodi in assortment.
    - officially in Cuba there is no Russian nuclear weapons. But in fact - here’s a boat moored at the pier
    - infrastructure, moorings, rembaza, sanatorium need object air defense and special forces cover on land and sea
    - the meaning in the "European" missile defense is immediately lost
    - Americans will immediately begin to quiver and look for opportunities for dialogue with Russia

    Sanatorium ... just a sanatorium!

    So peaceful, but so scary!

    I’m not sure that any of the words used above is not obscene in VO.

      Strategic submarines can shoot at least from the pier of their base, they will still get the adversary.

        It’s not a matter of where our boats can shoot from, but that the Americans constantly see them in Cuba. These destroyers of theirs can launch axes from the Mediterranean Sea, but, after all, they climb into the Black Sea, to Odessa.

        And the crews will have a good rest in Cuba. One crew came to rest - the second, having a rest, goes home.

          that the Americans constantly see them in Cuba.

          This is a bad idea for strategic submarines. Their main advantage is stealth. It’s better then the scheduled demonstration flights of Tu-95M bears near Alaska or to Venezuela, Cuba. This is another matter.

            Well, why? Not boats with ballistic missiles, but boats with "Caliber". Flight time is short, even from the Cuban pier to launch. It's a first strike threat, by the way.

            hi

            And the crews of "Bears" need to rest under the tropical sun. The more they are in front of the Americans, the better.

      Americans for such an idea will give a peace prize. They will not need to arrange surveillance of the missile carrier, he will drop by himself and let himself explore. The Americans will quickly bring equipment to Guntano. Even the blockade of the island as last time will not be organized.

        And now the better? Remember the famous photograph of three missile carriers at one berth in Severomorsk right away? (out of 4 acting at that time). Here the Americans do not need to learn anything. With one tactical warhead, 40% of the entire nuclear weapons of Russia can be carried out.

      For the Yankees, it's a routine .... boring! They don't even demand "glory" for themselves, unlike naval cousins! Otherwise, they could, they could, call it an "impossible" task, which they "bravely" completed.

    The main thing is that all this does not come down to the war with the States, nobody needs it. But in vain they climb into the Black Sea, apparently this is an answer for the Crimea and probably for Syria. One thing is good, the bias towards a unipolar world is over. Although the United States is our ally, the world needs a balance, and preferably without going into the "hot phase".

      Shaw can I say here? Do the Russians want war? Of course not. But the "Adrian's shaft" from which the United States needs to get out to its half of the globe, turned out to be already in the Black Sea. This is bad. It is unlikely that it will be possible to go back to the initial ones without losses.

    When moving to the location of the fifth US fleet in Bahrain on the night of August 11-12, 2012, the USS Porter destroyer collided with the Japanese oil tanker Otowasan flying the Panama flag in the Persian Gulf near the Strait of Hormuz. As noted on the official website of the US Navy, the ship’s ability to move independently has not lost.
    Maybe he’s lucky and he will find his next tanker in Sredzezemnoy. In Chernoy it is not necessary, otherwise we will collect oil later. feel

    I have a purely personal question ... did you manage to destroy all the WWII mines ... or you never know where one or two pieces were lost somewhere, so by chance on the route of a missile destroyer, or if they suddenly pass by, the skin shrinks ... I I'm just worried about the paint of an American ship, do not think anything bad.

         On the RPKSN pr.667-A, the D-5 missile system was installed with a firing range of up to 3000 km. and only with the underwater launch of R-27 missiles in the 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 mode, that is, after the launch of every 4 missiles, it was necessary to do anew prelaunch preparation! On the RPKSN pr.667-AU, the D-5U missile system was installed with a firing range of up to 4500 km. and only with the underwater launch of the R-27U missiles in the 8 + 8 mode, that is, after the launch of every 8 missiles, it was necessary to do a new prelaunch preparation! Therefore, these projects COULD NOT SHOOT from a surface position from the base, and since the firing range was INSUFFICIENT to hit targets, it was necessary to leave the base, deploy to the ROP (RBD) from where the reach of targets was ensured. But rpkSN pr.667-B, -BD, -BDR, -BDRM as well as pr.941 were carried and those who remained in the ranks still carry COMBAT SURVEY IN THE BASE, since they can use RO both from surface and from underwater position, and the range of their missiles is enough to reach targets on the territory of ANY of our potential enemy !!!
