      As far as I heard Uranus E - has a range of up to 260km, ...
      130 km - these were the very first modifications of uranium and they are no longer supplied for export to Vietnam, since 2009 of the year only Uranium-E with an increased radius of destruction has been delivered to Vietnam ...

      This is important because the French exosets, which are so loved by developing countries around the world and primarily rivals of Vietnam, have an order of magnitude smaller range from 50 to 180 km

        case in the Gulf of Tonkin. who came up with the United States to start the war in Vietnam. having this could be arranged in reality. but the United States, knowing about this, would not have started such a provocation sooner, but something else.
        It’s not worth anything for Amers to bring down their skyscrapers, they did it from the war with Spain and the incident in the port of Cuba. Oops. it seems they even had something earlier

        http://www.ktrv.ru/production/68/650/63/ нет, 130км. Иначе Вьетнаму нужно было бы еще и самолеты ДРЛО покупать и спутники

        As far as I know, the X-35U is not yet mass-produced, so yes, the range is 130 km.

      Meanwhile: the Zvyozdochka ship repair center presented the DRK-2015 propeller-steering column at the Neva-1200 exhibition. The first phase of the assembly and testing workshop under construction, in which domestic propulsion and steering columns will be assembled, will be commissioned before the end of this year.
      “In connection with the implementation of the import substitution program, all ships and ships built in Russia will be equipped with domestic propeller-steering columns. Before that, we bought them in Germany, Finland and other countries. Now we will produce and offer them for export ourselves, ”said Alexander Bobretsov, head of the advertising and information department at Zvyozdochka TS.

    When, finally, will our fleet begin to receive modern corvettes and frigates?
    It’s time for the comrades in Kaliningrad to hurry.
    Yes, it’s high time to decide on domestic ship engines.

    And why, in fact?! Our Vietnamese comrades defend their borders with our weapons. Do you want to protect the Vietnamese borders? There are more urgent and important things than the defense of Vietnam can do without us. But in the Middle East we need other ships and another technique is hot there !!!
