The crew of the large anti-submarine ship Admiral Tributs of the Pacific Fleet conducted comprehensive tactical exercises in the waters of Peter the Great Gulf, focusing on practicing elements of searching for and destroying mock enemy submarines. The event was carried out as part of the annual combat training plan for fleet formations.
During the exercise, the ship interacted with the crew of a Ka-27PL helicopter from the naval aviation branch of the Pacific Fleet. The aircrew detected an underwater target using a dipping sonar station and then passed the submarine's coordinates to the ship. After that, the mine-torpedo combat unit crews conducted training fire with anti-submarine weapons against a mock enemy submarine in simulation mode.
A Project 636.3 Varshavyanka diesel-electric submarine, part of the Pacific Fleet's submarine forces, served as the target for practicing ASW tactics. The exercise confirmed the crew's readiness to carry out missions as part of mixed-force groupings and also refined interaction algorithms between shipborne and aviation anti-submarine warfare assets in the coastal zone.
