The russian Navy has increased the number of Kalibr missiles on submarines from four to six. The spokesman for the Ukrainian Navy, Dmytro Pletenchuk, announced this on the air of a telethon.
Thus, it is reported that there were no changes from the enemy in the sea area, the russians did not withdraw additional ships, although the dispersal of the naval forces was in Novorossiysk.
"There is now one carrier - a submarine. As you can see, the statistics now look a little different. Previously, you saw a submarine with four possible Kalibrs, now there are six possible missiles," he said.
According to the spokesman, the russians decided in this way to increase the combat capabilities of the carriers in order to strike.
"The main type of boats that the occupiers are currently using are submarines, because it is safer for them. And given that this type of carrier is mostly at sea, I remind you, they have three of them in the Black Sea Fleet, all of them are Project 636, except for another submarine Alrosa, but it is not a carrier. It performs a patrol function more, but when they have carriers at sea, they are usually submarines, so most likely they decided to increase its combat capabilities in this way in order to have more opportunities to strike," Pletenchuk explained.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the aggressor country russia, as of 06:00 a.m. on Friday, April 18, had not deployed its warships to the Black and Azov Seas.
There were also no enemy ships in the Black and Azov Seas from April 7 to 17.
