Technical maintenance and repair of four innovative electric vessels of the "Moscow 1.0" project have begun at the Moscow Shipyard. This was announced by Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin.
Specialists are checking the operability of propulsion and steering systems, which ensure the movement and maneuvering of equipment on the water.
Rapid response boats have already been serviced at the shipyard. Small vessels patrol the waters of the Moskva River, the mayor added.
Sobyanin explained that previously the carrier independently serviced the electric fleet outside the capital. Thanks to the commissioning of the Moscow Shipyard, it was possible to speed up the work. Now the technical inspection of ships takes a minimum of time, he summarized.
