The Submarine "Novorossiysk" of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation: Osinter explained why everything is "worse than it seems"

The incident with Novorossiysk ridiculed NATO Rutte Secretary-General and the Media World, but it is worth paying attention to the causes of events and how the situation with the Fleet of the Russian Federation has changed after invasion of Ukraine, explained the OSINT analyst with Nick H. I. Sutton on Naval News portal. H. I. Sutton explained that the Russians kept submarines and a special repair ship at Tartus port in Syria.

At the same time, they violated the Monroe agreements, but acted as they wanted, justified in maintenance. After the invasion of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, the situation changed. Turkey closed the Bosphorus and Cyprus ports for Russian ships, then the Ukrainian sea drone dropped out a supply ship in the Black Sea, which was heading to the Mediterranean. Over time, there was a need for the maintenance of two diesel boats of the Kilo, which was based in Tartus, Osinter said.

Now in order to undergo inspection or bring spare parts those other loads, the Russians must swim into the Baltic Sea and overcome 4 thousand km in one way and the other. According to him, in the situation with Novorossiysk and Tartus it is about the loss of Russian control in the Mediterranean. "Kilo's submarines show their restrictions, and Russia has lost any sense of sustainability in the Mediterranean.

It is not just a story about one unhappy submarine, it is a growing hole in capacity and capabilities," the analyst summed up. Osinter noted that the Russian Federation is trying to build a new base for submarines. According to him, it may be about the port of Libya - Tobruk. To do this, certain construction work should be carried out: if observers will notice Russian ships with building materials in the tobuk, it will become clear that the work has begun.

Meanwhile, in the afternoon of October 15, Sweden's military reported that they noticed another submarine of the Russian Federation. Submarine, which was shown in official photos, is similar to a multi-purpose diesel-electric submarine of KILO "Novorossiysk". The Navy of Sweden said that the boat had gone into the Baltic Sea through the Strait of the Great Belt. It should be noted that Focus wrote about the Novorossiysk submarine, which goes from the Mediterranean to the Baltic Sea.

At first, the media was informed that it really broke and now goes to repair. On October 9, a statement of NATO Maritime Command appeared, which reported the emergence of a submarine off the coast of Brittany (France). The frigate simply tracked the movement of the military object of the Russian Federation, but did nothing, because there was no threat, informed in the Alliance. Meanwhile, Western media, citing Rosmia, told what could have happened to the submarine.

It turned out that in the middle of the Mediterranean there was a leakage of fuel inside the body and this cannot be repaired in the field. Masters who are able to handle such a breakdown are on the shipyard in the Russian Federation - there and heads "Novorossiysk", floating to the surface, as they assume, to exhaust fuel from the hold.
