Landing boats for the Russian Navy are built in the French Lorient and our Yaroslavl
The construction of four landing craft is led by STX Lorient. According to the plans, the Russian side should receive all four boats by the end of October of the current year. While construction is proceeding without failures, and the only thing that can prevent Russia from getting landing craft CTM NG, these are general economic sanctions that the US stubbornly imposes on the European Union against the Russian Federation. About the reasons why France will not be able to fulfill contractual obligations to Russia, President Hollande argued not so long ago.
The other four landing craft of the same type will be delivered by the French side in the second half of next year.
If we talk about the technical characteristics of these boats, then
the maximum stroke speed of the CTM NG reaches 20 nodes, the length of 27 is m, the width is 7 is m.
June 18 in France (Saint-Nazaire) is awaiting the arrival of Russian crews for training sessions on Mistral-type ships.
Russian Navy receives landing craft and domestic production. So, yesterday (5 June) the landing boat “Michman Lermontov” of the 21820 “Dugong” project was launched.
It was assembled at the Yaroslavl Shipyard. In July last year, the landing craft of a similar project, called “Denis Davydov”, was launched.
