Missile boats R-29 and R-297 of the Pacific Fleet carried out combat training tasks in Peter the Great Bay. The sailors practiced sailing and conducting combat by a single ship, including scoring artillery fire at naval, coastal, and aerial targets simulating the forces of a mock enemy.
The crews performed electronic launches of the Moskit cruise missile at a mock enemy ship. Thus, the complete algorithm for using the complex was worked out, with the exception of the physical launch of the missile. The format allows you to check the readiness of systems and the coordination of calculations without expending the resource of ammunition.
At the same time, training sessions were held to fight for the ship's survivability on the move: the crews practiced actions in case of simulated damage. At the roadstead, the sailors trained anti-sabotage defense and repelling attacks by strike unmanned aerial vehicles.
Boats of Project 12411, which include R-29 and R-297, remain carriers of supersonic Moskit missiles. Their participation in the exercises confirms the maintenance of the combat readiness of this class of weapons in the Sea of Japan.
