A detachment of ships of the Pacific Fleet, consisting of the corvettes "Sovershenny" and "Rezkiy" (Project 20380), with the support of Ka-27 helicopters, conducted artillery fire in the South China Sea. This was reported in the press service of the fleet.

The sailors fired at naval targets simulating a mock enemy ship from A-190 universal ship artillery systems. They also hit enemy unmanned boats and drones using large-caliber machine guns.

Pilots of Ka-27 deck helicopters carried out reconnaissance flights and discovered a target simulating a submarine. The crew of the corvette "Rezkiy" used anti-submarine weapons. The maneuvers ended with training in the fight for survivability of ships.
