At the same time, the report stresses that "the Russian fleet is now controlled by a new post-Soviet generation of officers."

“Starting with the 2000s, as the situation in Russia stabilized, (Moscow) focused on renewing the viability of its armed forces, including the navy,” indicates report author George Fedoroff. “The previously suspended construction programs are now moving towards completion, and new projects are starting to allow the fleet to be completed with submarines and ships of the 21 of the 20th century.”

The publication notes the fact that the document "repeatedly mentions the Caliber missile system", the spread of which "will allow the Russian fleet to seriously expand the possibilities for deterring and destroying enemy targets."

        Unfortunately, “it’s not over yet,” and if oil is still so cheap, it can be adjusted in the direction of reducing defense costs, and the savings will simply be eaten by the social sector. And this, unfortunately, is one of the possible scenarios for the development of the situation ... pah-pah.

          Yes, there is such a problem even without the development of its own industry, but for the time being, the military-industrial complex is managing to stop and transfer technologies to other sectors, and then there will be less dependence on oil.

          - Oil "flooded" since about 2005. This allowed Russia to quickly pay off its debts and raised the bar for ordinary citizens.

          And that’s it. From the word - at all. The Liberasts folded their paws: apparently they thought it was forever and reports about how awesome everything was in Libya and Syria, and there was no need to talk about the Saudis overwhelmed by television.

              That is, the author points out that "limited", that is, with less effort and expense, significantly influence international issues. Like from the Caspian we'll knock on the Mediterranean, or from many other places we can knock on the door.

      What are you happy ??? You just don’t understand how budget sharing works. If tomorrow, intelligence releases a report stating that, for example, no threat comes from Russia or China, they will immediately cut back on military spending. So in most cases, all these intelligence reports that go to the press are for domestic consumption and for congress to scare the scary Russians so that they don't start cutting back on military spending.

        Andrei, you consciously or not exclude such a component of increasing the combat effectiveness of the fleet as the modernization of the ship’s composition. The new filling and weapon systems make these ships quite competitive.
        Well and then, the corvette, armed with Caliber, is inferior to missile EM in seaworthiness and navigation area, and is not inferior to it in the power of wearable weapons.
        In general, the fifth point, the Amy feel that they are on the eve of a grand schucher: the PRC is building carriers, and may turn to us for weapons of destruction. And we will not refuse! And we ourselves are already approaching the line when we begin to build ships of the ocean zone. There are difficulties, of course, but they are surmountable. The start of construction of the AVU since 2019 is already being promoted. Anaerobic Viburnum on the way, The Leader matures, Borea and Ash-tree are slowly building ...
        In short, wait and see!

        And no one argues, that is why we are not building aircraft carriers, and the submarine fleet is based on submarine submarines of the Varshavyanka project with “Calibers” that can carry a nuclear charge. The sobering blow of the Caspian Flotilla was also produced by small rocket ships, not very expensive. If possible, they upgrade or use unfinished cruiser hulls. Tu-160 was also rescued from under the Ukrainian guilyatine, though not all.

      or the fact that a significant part of these "waste" is our own fuel for which we were paid with the condition of further export
