Duel on Baltic: Two Russian submarines fired at each other with torpedoes

Military observers noted that Russian submarine maneuvers in the Baltic Sea occur against the background of increased tensions between Russia and NATO countries. The Navy of Russia recently conducted a training duel with the participation of diesel-electric submarines "Novorossiysk" and "Dmitrov" in the Baltic Sea. According to the TASS news agency, the Novorossiysk Crew made a torpedo attack during the maneuvers with the use of a practical ammunition (without a warhead).

It is reported that Submarin crews have worked out combat maneuvering, evasion of enemy attacks and the daily and combat organization of the internal-border service while performing training and combat tasks. After the torpedo launches, the crews continued planned combat training in the Baltic Sea. Analyzing the event, The Eurasian Times said that studying in the Baltic Sea occur against the background of increased tensions between Russia and NATO countries.

Recently, Russia has tried to change the maritime border in the eastern part of the Baltic Sea, which caused a new wave of tension in relations with NATO. Although significant damage was caused in the Black Sea by the Russian Fleet, the Aggressor country continues to increase power at the expense of its underwater forces. This became apparent when the Kazan atomic submarine visited Cuba to participate in planned military exercises in the Caribbean.
