The P3 aircraft found Stealth Submarine of the Russian Federation "Mozhaysk": what does the submarine in the Baltic

The presence of a Russian submarine in this class is part of a broader scheme of deployment of the Russian military fleet. At the same time, the Baltic is a critical area for NATO naval operations. NATO Maritime Command has released the image of a Russian submarine B-608 "Mozhaysk" of the Project 636. 3 "Warsaw".

As reported by Army Recognition, Submarine revealed a P-3 Orion patrol aircraft in the Baltic Sea, which indicates a constant monitoring of NATO forces of Russian maritime activity in this strategically important region. It is noted that submarines of this class are known for their steals and advanced technologies, which makes them significant assets for Russian naval operations.

Analysts believe that the presence of B-608 "Mozhaysk" in the Baltic Sea is part of a broader scheme of deployment of the Russian Navy, which is closely monitored by NATO forces. At the same time, this submarine will eventually become part of the Pacific Fleet of the Navy. The submarines of the project 636. 3 are equipped with six torpedoes of 533 mm caliber and can carry up to 18 units of weapons.

They are capable of running different types of torpedo type 53, including variants with wired guidance, such as 53-39Pm. From the rocket weapons, the submarine is capable of using the winged rockets of the Kalibr-PL complex, which are released from the torpedo apparatus and are intended for damage to surface, underwater and ground purposes.

"The trip of B-608" Mozhaysk "from the Baltic to the Pacific, probably will continue to arouse interest and close attention of both military analysts and strategic planning professionals," the authors of the publication write. The Baltic Sea, which is a critical area for both NATO and Russia, continues to remain the center of military surveillance and strategic displacement. The presence of B-608 "Mozhaysk" in the Baltic Sea reflects the strategic and geopolitical considerations of Russia.

The proximity of the Baltic Sea to Western Europe and NATO member states makes it a critical area for the Russian Federation in terms of the security of the western borders and the projection of force. And in this context, submarines, which have a secrecy, play an important role in the patrolling of these waters, providing strategic access to key maritime routes and balanced by the growing NATO presence in the region.
