Polish media: the Russian Navy conducted rocket fires in response to Warsaw's decision to build air defense frigates

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation announced new exercises of the Bastion coastal anti-ship missile battery. In Poland, it is believed that the Russian Navy conducted rocket firing in response to Warsaw's decision to build air defense frigates under the Mechnik program.

They write about this in an article published by the Polish Internet publication Defense 24.

According to the scenario of the exercise, the Bastion complexes of the Baltic fleet carried out missile strikes on the detected group of ships of the imaginary enemy.

The Polish media note that in the event of a military conflict, the Onyx anti-ship missiles, which, in addition to other equally formidable ammunition, are equipped with Russian anti-ship systems, may become the most dangerous for future Polish ships. After all, they, writes the Polish media, are capable of attacking targets at a supersonic speed of Mach 2,6 at a distance of up to 600 kilometers.

Polish readers in the comments were skeptical about this assumption. Some of them do not consider it necessary to create Polish air defense ships at all, since, in their opinion, the airspace over the Baltic is well controlled aviation NATO.

Do you really think that the Russians imitated the death of our ships, which do not exist and probably will not be for a long time? And why do we need "anti-aircraft" frigates if NATO has an overwhelming advantage over the Baltic Sea?

- writes one of them.

In which case, any threat will be eliminated by F-35 fighters.

- echoes him another.

Another reader noted that Russian coastal complexes are already in service, and there are no Polish "anti-aircraft ships" yet.

It would be worth thinking what appeared earlier: "Bastion" or "Swordsman". It turns out that these are our air defense frigates are the answer to the Russian "Bastions".

- said the Pole.

But the most original was the commentary of the reader, who gave his forecast in the event of a Russian-Polish armed conflict.

In the event of a war with Russia and Belarus, most of the mobilized Poles will go over to the side of the Slavs.

- he considers.

Did you read something on the rocket?

[Thrifty]

Yes, let them build, then we use cats, that is, ready-made "swordsmen" and we will practice, even if they pull up their f35, the more goals we have, the more interesting it is. ..

[mitroha]

if NATO has an overwhelming advantage over the Baltic Sea?

Of course, it will depend on the tension of the conflict, but the overwhelming advantage in the air is well offset by strikes on home airfields

The chairman of the Armed Services Committee of the US House of Representatives, Adam Smith, called the fifth generation fighter Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II a rat hole, Popular Mechanics reports.
According to the Democrat, this aircraft should be replaced with others. The chairman of the committee noted that the Pentagon should cut costs for the F-35 Lightning II. “I want to stop throwing money into this rat hole,” the politician said.

I wonder what frigates they were going to build if the patrolman "Gavron" could not build for more than 10 years?

[white.eagle]

They began to build Gavron when everything indicated that the risk of war in the region was zero, because Russia would be weak and therefore non-aggressive for a long time. But in 2008 it became clear that Russia is not abandoning its aggressive policy. Thus, after the Russian aggression against Georgia, all plans to limit the military potential of Poland lost their force. So the Gavron-corvette project without the possibility of protection from air attack turned out to be meaningless, funding was limited, and the ship was built in the form of a patrol boat. New analyzes have shown that cruise missile submarines and frigates with strong anti-aircraft weapons are needed. But when it turned out that the potential of aviation and ground forces also needed to be increased, the purchase of the F 35 and the construction of new artillery systems for the fleet did not have enough money. So this frigate is just a propaganda of the Polish government.

[carstorm 11]

Who was the aggression against?) Georgia? These are the ones who started killing our peacekeepers? Are we aggressive? Seriously? You haven't confused the cause with the investigation? Because of these countries, like Georgia or Ukraine, sooner or later such a war in Europe will begin that will not be enough. And when the smoke disappears in 30 years it will reach the most stubborn for what, millions of lives will no longer be returned. The Poles can pout their lips as much as they please, but the fact that in the first hour of this war nothing will remain of it is an indisputable fact. And why should they do this, they themselves do not know

[Tagan]

"If something happens, any threat will be eliminated by F-35 fighters."
Here it is ...
Thank you, at least they didn't remember about Bayraktars.

[boris epstein]

Well, the United States will gladly shove 90 cars to the Poles, which England refused.

[ss-n-22]

The last missile firing of cruise ammunition at the BF was at the Liepaja range in 1992. I shot at the delivery of the industry "Persistent", after which they fished for a long time the rafts shaved off on the starboard side. Since then, cruise missiles have not been fired at the BF - nowhere.

[Oden280]

They shoot in the Black Sea. There is more room

[Konstantin Gogolev]

We sleep and see how to capture the Kingdom of Poland. Don't worry - our missiles, on the contrary, are designed to protect you from the intervention of other NATO countries after your voluntary referendum will return to our Evil Empire.

Polish media: Russian Navy conducted rocket firing in response to Warsaw's decision to build air defense frigates

I didn't remember myself, who will remember you ???

[Mountain shooter]

Has it come to Poland that it is just a victim in any serious turmoil between Russia and Europe? She's just the first "under distribution" ...

[rocket757]

So the local people, even though they didn’t put on pots, were told about the skakuas long ago and thoroughly according to the way of thinking and wishful thinking.

[Invoce]

made me laugh ...

[Growlers]

The Polish media are clearly in a hurry to fulfill someone's order. Directly the megalomania can be traced ... Soon any sneeze in Russia will be associated only with Poland

[Constanty]

What the hell. Warsaw's “decision” is nothing more than pious wishes that may come true in years (a, probably, will not come true). What is the essence and reason for such a response from the RF?

[XXXIII]

Poland needs to subscribe to the channel of the Ministry of Defense. There are exercises every day, probably because Poland decided something.

[Hermit21]

Schizophrenics seem to be able to find relationships with two unrelated events.

[Alien From]

Many birch friends think about themselves!

[Holsten]

I really liked the last thought in the article. The main thing is to motivate the guys correctly - we will return to Poland the original Polish cities of Kiel, Bremen, Copenhagen. At the same time, the Czechs hint at the great Bohemia with its capital in Vienna. It was not me who came up with the thesis: the more absurd the lie, the easier it is to believe in it - what if it's not a lie?

[Zaurbek]

If the launcher fires Onyx, it can fire with "caliber", who knows?

[Pavel57]

Build air defense ships, then realize that they are useless and build new ones.

[iouris]

Better to test nuclear weapons.

[Prisoner]

Megalomania in Poles is not cured. It is interesting how their servility to the Anglo-Saxons and their fear of the German is so combined with this mania. Theme for the thesis however.

If you threaten to use nuclear weapons, then indicate the purpose of the burial place of the German OM at the bottom of the Baltic Sea.

[sharp-lad]

The uselessness of Poland and the Baltic states of Russia does not mean the uselessness of the Baltic Sea!

[Pavel57]

Threatening does not mean fulfilling the threat.

[sharp-lad]

Threatening with those that are really ready to use! Otherwise, there will be a banderomaidanuty circus.

[Ugochaves]

Hospidyayaya, they are already pushing their elbows in the competition to whom Russia will attack first. Here Ukraine is leading by an unconditional margin, in 2nd place with varying success of Tribalts and Psheks, and 3rd place is shared by tired Vikings, Norgs with Swedes. I hope you mentioned everyone?

[Zaurbek]

Ukraine and Poland are competing in whom the US will invest finances .... Poland is winning so far.
I don't know who will fight from the Poles ... they are all working in Europe. In their place are Ukrainians and Belarusians.

[Ugochaves]

Well, if we consider it as a beloved wife, then yes, the psheks proudly twist their backs

I do not know who will fight from the Poles ...

Well, what kind of army the Poles have, well, they will scrape together "dobrobats" for help.

[Zaurbek]

They will not miss the repetition of the 90s ...

[Kuzmitsky]

The winner of the competition for the title "The First Victim of Russian Aggression" received a solid monetary prize, so they are trying.

This is how it relates generally to nuclear weapons. And you need
