Russian Warship Movements Through Turkish Straits (Part 7)
28 Apr 2013
The excellent and always well-informed Black Sea News website reports that the two Ropucha class large landing ships of the Baltic Fleet 102 Kaliningrad and 110 Alexander Shbalin have returned to the Russian naval Base Novorossiysk together with the tanker Dubna of the Northern Fleet.
The Kaliningrad and Alexander Shbalin have left Russia in mid April and I had the impression that they were heading back home as Alexander Shabalin is supposed to be attending Rouen’s L’Armada event. But apparently they had to do one more round trip to the Mediterranean.
So this is the latest tally of Russian warship movements
