The division of landing ships of the Baltic Fleet, including "Denis Davydov", "Michman Lermontov" and "Lieutenant Rimsky-Korsakov" (project 21820 "Dyugon"), as well as landing ships of project 11770 "Serna", took part in a planned exercise. This was reported in the press service of the Baltic Fleet.
The crews of the ships conducted training on loading military equipment from the shore, after which they transferred and landed it on the coast of the Baltic Fleet's marine training ground. Then the sailors performed maneuvering elements in the conditions of "enemy" fire.
In order to create an environment as close as possible to combat, the landing craft maneuvered at the highest possible speeds - more than 30 knots.
The Baltic sailors also fired at surface and air targets from large-caliber Vladimirov tank machine guns (KPVT), the fleet's press service summarized.
