The new Project 22350 frigates of the Russian Navy (VMF) will become an effective means of protecting water areas. The warships are capable of becoming effective means of defense, according to Peter Suciu, a columnist for The National Interest (TNI).
The fifth Project 22350 frigate, the Admiral Amelko, was launched on August 14. The ship, which is called the "sea terminator," will become the first representative of the series capable of carrying up to 32 cruise missiles.
