Ships of the Caspian Flotilla in Volgograd

Driving along the embankment, stopped and took photos.

Makhachkala (flight number 163) - a small artillery ship of project 21630 (code "Buyan") of the "river-sea" type, designed to strengthen the surface forces of the Caspian flotilla in the near sea zone and in river sections.

There was also a TSS 10750 project with a landing craft of the 1176 pr.



And a couple of 1204 artillery boats:

All this beauty took part in the celebration of Victory Day. And today we also managed to pofot calmly - as they say, at the pier.

A little off topic, but on time: all Black Sea sailors on the Day of the Black Sea Fleet! Seven feet under the keel!

[NEXUS]

The people, fleet and army are one! It has always been like this in Russia.

[KasDS]

Of course, I am not a connoisseur of ship armament, but it seems to me that the tank tower stands in the bow of the artillery boat ???))))

Quote: KasDS

in the bow of the artillery boat the tank tower is standing ???)

That's right. From PT-76.

[KasDS]

Wow, unexpectedly ...

[Taoist]

Mutually, mutually ... ;-) Just at the Black Sea Fleet and served ...

[kvnvolga2008]

Thanks to the Caspian sailors for visiting our city!

[Teberii]

Come to us on the day of the Navy, parade, salute.

[g1v2]

And here in St. Petersburg on the pier BDK Korolev, IPC Urengoy and a submarine Vyborg are. Swam past - inspires. By the way, he sailed past the Diamond - it looks like they will pass the patrol ship to the border guards the other day. At least the weapons are all installed, the ship is painted, fresh inscriptions are applied. Plus, they are definitely already the next floating crane for the Navy.

[Stalker.1977]

I join in the congratulation !!! And on the topic, it’s a pity in the vicinity not everyone can see, and our beauty is a terrible force !!!))))

[Yuri from Volgograd]

Yeah, even the photo shows washed asphalt on the pier (
By the way, I don’t understand why the parades are held along Mira Street, and not along the promenade. In the World only 3 - 4 thousand can normally look at the event, and on the embankment 100 - 115 thousand. Apparently the parade is held for show, and not for the townspeople. And it’s a pity, I really wanted to take my boys there.
They didn’t get into the sea battle either, they opened the center, they didn’t succeed.
All attention was paid to Mamaev Kurgan.

[Taoist]

Parades in general on the Square of the Fallen Fighters have always been ... ;-) However, the tradition. Well, the center on such days is best on the tram ... Then you will definitely get there. My family, regardless of the weather, walked as usual ...

[Volga Cossack]

the beauty! the artillery boats with pt-76 towers always pleased me.

[viktorrymar]

But I'm waiting for everything, when Volgograd regains its proud name STALINGRAD.
Thank you for the photo.

[Taoist]

9 May it was Stalingrad. Officially.

[stonks]

I envy the author - I like to look at the beautiful warships.
In childhood, I happened to visit a destroyer, climb on it both outside and inside.
Even in the tower and in the shell cellar visited.

[Taoist]

The author actually served on the Black Sea Fleet and "climbed" the ships almost from childhood ... But not to love ships ... in my opinion it is impossible.

Sleepless eye piercing
Radar beam lay on the screen ...
Here we are again in your arms
They came, Great Ocean.
In a turbine screen and howl
Ball steel flickers ...
Although we are made for battle
We are silent sea pity.
Again stress alert
The ship will swing on the wave ...
Like on a blade in Arabic script
Salty stroke on the armor.

[Taoist]

"Makhachkala" May 9 ...

[drlalex]

There 3R-14UKSK still stands under Caliber or Onyx, which makes these ships even more wonderful :)

[silver_roman]

But don’t the buoys have a universal launching mine with the Kyrgyz Republic? Am I confused ...?

[VohaAhov]

To the author: a small mistake came out. The side number of "Makhachkala" is 015, but the serial number is № 163
