Commander-in-Chief of the Navy: Russia can create squadrons in the Indian and Pacific Oceans


Russia can create naval squadrons in the Pacific and Indian oceans on a permanent basis. About this in an interview with the TV channel "Star" said the commander in chief of the Russian Navy, Admiral Viktor Chirkov.

V. Chirkov recalled that stories The USSR Navy already had experience when fleet there were squadrons in the Pacific and Indian oceans. According to the admiral, if necessary, the leadership of the naval forces "will offer the government and the president to create operational formations there on an ongoing basis."

V. Chirkov also said that the group that the Navy will create in the Mediterranean Sea will consist of 5-6 ships, which will be managed through the command of the Black Sea Fleet.

Recall that at the beginning of the week, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu announced the need to form in the Mediterranean Sea an operational connection of the Navy on an ongoing basis.

      Russia can create naval squadrons in the Pacific and Indian oceans on a permanent basis. Admiral Viktor Chirkov, Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy, said this in an interview with the Zvezda TV channel.

      Enough ships, don’t worry.

        Comrades, let’s guess what ships, submarines can enter (meaning type and class) into squadrons in the Pacific and Indian Ocean?

            Can you explain. Create "to create naval squadrons in the Pacific and Indian Oceans on a permanent basis." And the Pacific Fleet is no longer considered a permanent basis. Or did they decide to sell the Far East, and in exchange for this they get one port for the Pacific squadron. Which will display the flag on the Pacific and Indian oceans. Or all the same, the commander-in-chief does not know which fleets are under his command. Or are they so small that they cannot be called a fleet. ????? Or maybe Chirkov fell into insanity and thinks that the year is 1885 ??? Or was it not Chirkov, but a man like him who misled the journalists ????

              I'll try to explain! The Pacific Fleet is responsible for interests in the Pacific Ocean, but in order not to drive the entire fleet, operational squadrons of 8-10 ships + 1 or 2 submarines came up (correct if I'm wrong). They change each other for a certain time.

                And before that they didn’t? I dare to upset you in the interests of Pacific Fleet includes the Indian and Pacific Oceans. For this, 2 OCEAN fleets of Pacific Fleet and Northern Fleet were built. On an ongoing basis, there were 2 operational units covering the Mediterranean Sea and parts of the Indian Ocean. The Pacific Fleet bases were in Cuba, Vietnam, etc. What is an operational squadron I know.

              In 1967-1971, four operational squadrons were formed in the USSR Navy with the following areas of responsibility:
              5-I operational squadron - the Mediterranean Sea;
              7-I operational squadron - the Atlantic Ocean;
              8-I operational squadron - the Indian Ocean and the Persian Gulf;
              10th operational squadron - Pacific Ocean.
              By 2005, they were all disbanded.

              Comrade Mechanic, the original text was as follows):
              The grouping of the Russian Navy in the Mediterranean Sea will consist of five to six ships. According to RIA Novosti, this was announced by the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Admiral Viktor Chirkov, speaking on March 17 on the Zvezda TV channel.

              According to him, "up to five or six ships should be permanently in the Mediterranean Sea, control should be carried out through the command of the Black Sea Fleet. The group will be based on ships of the first rank, that is, frigates and cruisers. In addition, it will include support ships. ", - the agency notes.

              Now there is a coordination of documents regulating the work of the connection and the organizational and staff structure of the group.

              Admiral V. Chirkov also said that "if necessary, the naval command will propose to the country's leadership to create on a permanent basis operational ship formations in the Pacific and Indian oceans - following the example of the Mediterranean," RIA Novosti reports.

              The commander-in-chief noted that "while there is a need to create such a connection in the Mediterranean, and then - depending on the situation."

    I do not understand, but in the Pacific Ocean, that there is nothing (rhetorical since I live in Primorye). The Pacific Fleet of Russia, as part of the Navy and the Russian Armed Forces as a whole, is a means of ensuring Russia's military security in the Asia-Pacific region.



    To accomplish its tasks, the Pacific Fleet includes strategic missile submarines, multipurpose nuclear and diesel submarines, surface ships for operations in the ocean and near sea zones, naval missile, anti-submarine and fighter aircraft, ground forces, and parts of land and coastal troops . .

Although no militia was renamed the police and Cherkov would rename the fleet to "naval squadrons". Glamurninko so "Commander of the ESCADROY" or "OPERATIVE compound". And not the commander of the fleet, the fleet of which is incomprehensible to them.

For 70 years, from the composition of the fleet’s ships, they have been creating operational units on an ongoing basis to demonstrate the flag at a certain point in the world's oceans and support political decisions of the country's leadership. The fleet needs to be updated in service are the elderly without dock repair. The fleet will soon sink by the pier itself. Already there are no slipways, no docks, no factories that will be able to fully ensure the complete repair of ships

    Expert opinions

    Experts were skeptical of the "oceanic" plans of the Navy. So, the chief editor of the magazine "National Defense" Igor Korotchenko told Izvestia that to deploy groups in the Pacific and Indian Oceans on an ongoing basis, Russia is not within the power, and there are no military and geopolitical tasks for them now. But the appearance of the future Mediterranean squad of ships, which, for example, can fight piracy in the Horn of Africa, is very likely. True, he certainly will not be able to compete with the Soviet fifth squadron, which at different times totaled 30-50 ships, Korotchenko believes.

    An expert of the Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies agrees with him. Vasily Kashin. It is possible to solve the problem of presence in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, but only by removing resources from some other areas and significant stress, he said in an interview with Vzglyad newspaper. According to him, surface ships of the Russian fleet for the most part were built in the 1980 years and are now "knocking out the rest of the resource", which means the military should speed up programs in this area.

    Among Russia's foreign partners, there are many rather unstable, developing countries, the expert says. Therefore, our country needs to have a small, but effective naval force, which can stay in remote corners of the World Ocean for a long time and solve tasks such as, for example, mass evacuation of Russian citizens from the combat zone

      So I am not some kind of "expert" or "editor-in-chief" ... I am not even a member of the editorial board ... I just served in the navy, saw different places and different people and without any ANALYSIS OF STRATEGIES AND TECHNOLOGIES, even without such great authority, like Igor Korotchenko, I will simply say - it is too early for our commander-in-chief to think about creating "squadrons" in the Pacific or Indian Oceans ... If only the Pacific Fleet is reduced and turned into a squadron ... Maybe this means?
      And yet, gentlemen ... the army and the navy are just getting up off their knees, but I've heard so much lately about all these "institutes" and "centers" ... Young mods are sitting in the TV box, judging by the clever expression on their face in the army did not serve, and broadcast their analyzes and forecasts. It is interesting to know - who gives money for the maintenance of these pseudo-scientific idlers?

    The Commander-in-Chief of the Navy decided to be like Mr. Zhirinovsky. He wanted to wash his boots in the Indian Ocean, this one to create squadrons from nonexistent ships there.
    Instead of this shameful chatter, he would rather tell when, finally, Severodvinsk, which has been under construction since 1993, will enter the fleet.

    I have an eternal question - why aren’t they upgrading and rebuilding a Peter the Great and Moscow-type cruiser, are there still canned destroyers and much more that could be sent to the Indian, Pacific Oceans and the Mediterranean Sea, without losing the combat effectiveness of the country itself? It is both faster and cheaper, and in my opinion, they will not come up with anything better than these ships for a long time.

    In my opinion a real idea.
    Look two years ago in the Mediterranean, the single calls of our ships. A year ago there were already groups, by the end of the year our ships were almost always there. This year already plans for a permanent squadron.
    Indian Ocean - there are always a couple of ships on the fight against piracy - here you have the basis of the squadron there. The fight against piracy is a prelude to large naval forces.
    Pacific Fleet - the core of the future squadron was correctly noted on the Mistral approach (we will not argue about its merits and demerits).
    The second recent trip of officials to Vietnam and "sounding the soil" about Komrani.
    Third, the need to take into account the geopolitical plans of the United States, which are increasingly casting a glance at the South Asian region, and they openly talk about it.
    And in general, for all fleets, new ships are approaching, you can scold shipbuilders, but a new one is under construction and I think this construction will go on schedule.
    So, again, the idea is real.
