        CSTO have indicated their presence off the coast of Syria.

        who for example? Armenia or Kyrgyzstan with Tajikistan? Except for swimming or fishing trawlers. Only then will they have to be rescued and evacuated.
        It’s like in a joke about the Romanian army, I do not remember verbatim, but the point is that if the Romanian army comes out on our side, we will need 10 divisions to save them from complete collapse, and if it comes out against us, then we need 10 divisions, to break them, so it makes no sense what Romanians will decide. The same can be said about Armenia, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Kazakhstan also does not have a fleet, and Belarus is even less so.

        As I expected, under the pretext of exercises with the Indians, the Varyag would join Moscow. But a very important point is that the destroyer Bystry is coming along with the Varyag, which will strengthen the anti-submarine defense of the group, given that Turkish submarines are "roaming" nearby ...

    Everything is correct. The constant presence of our naval grouping is necessary so that there is no temptation for any members of the "coalition" to threaten Syria from the sea.
    And the Turks will calm down a little, given that the Varyag, as well as the Moskva, has an air defense system. And "Moscow" needs to rest after a busy service.

      Reef export option. The rocket is simpler and the detection tools are weaker.

      Yes, in general, I don’t understand where the infa about the reef standing on Varyag comes from? .. from the building there is a normal S-300F, which the Fort was standing with, why would I put an export (trimmed) version on it?
      it also has a radar with headlamps, which gives advantages to the detection of low-flying targets, well, in range too ..

      Everything perfect is beautiful! This also applies to weapons. Ships, planes, machine guns, pistols, rifles. Even the warheads of the warheads - when I first saw the Governor, then at first glance I looked away to the side, involuntarily. Something in the outlines is predatory and elegant, creepy and beautiful. And all this intensifies when you imagine what kind of power inside the shell is napping. Then he got used to it, of course.

      Sorry hi , Prussian.
      When the First World War broke out, in Bucharest for a long time and painfully they wondered who to join, so as not to miscalculate. The Entente and Germany also could not decide what the Romanian army is: a gift or a punishment? Kaiser Wilhelm asked the opinion of the chief of the General Staff Moltke, and he answered with soldier bluntness: “We don’t care, Your Majesty, on whose side Romania will enter the war. If ours, it will take 10 divisions to save it from defeat. If it is against, the same 10 divisions will be needed to defeat it. ”

      Helmut Johann Ludwig von Moltke (Moltke the Younger, German: Helmuth Johannes Ludwig von Moltke; May 25, 1848, Mecklenburg - June 18, 1916, Berlin) - Count, German military leader, colonel general, quartermaster general, chief of the Field General Staff of the German Empire, is known for defeat in battle on the Marne in 1914, which changed the course of the war on the European front in favor of the Entente.

      Hurry to have "Ustinov" completed the repair and its strengthening.

      The missile cruiser Marshal Ustinov, undergoing repair and modernization at the Severodvinsk enterprise Zvezdochka, has begun mooring tests of individual systems.
      In the course of modernization on the ship, in particular, new radar stations (radars) were installed. The cruiser received the Podberezovik three-coordinate early warning radar and the Fregat-M2M station with phased array antennas optimized for detecting low-flying targets. The new radars were installed to replace the MR-600 "Voskhod" and MR-710 "Fregat-M" radars, which were part of the MR-800 "Flag" radar system installed on the ship during its construction.
      The ships of "Zvezdochka" and contractor organizations have started mooring tests for individual systems of the ship, mainly for the mechanical part.
      The ship, which began work in 2011, is due to return to the fleet in 2016. It was previously reported that the cruiser will be handed over to the fleet before the end of 2015. request
