The Russian Kashin class destroyer Smetlivy smoked her way to the Mediterranean on 19 September 2015. She was build in 1960’s and is the first of class of warships that uses only gas turbines for propulsion. At the same time the buoy tender KIL-158 was returning the Black Sea and both ships passed each other on Bosphorus. KIL-158 had a short 10 day deployment to the Mediterranean.

The Yug class survey, research and intelligence gathering ship Donuzlav made her south bound passage through Istanbul on 20 September 2015.

In last two days we have observed 3 Ropucha class large landing ships passing through Turkish Straits. Novocharkassk made her southbound passage while Azov and Tsezar Kunikov returned from their Mediterranean deployment.
