Problems on the Navy and MIC: Why do Russians change the names of submarin

As an example, experts are given by the Kronstadt submarine, on which the Russian Federation has "caught" a plate called "St. Petersburg", probably for "masking" of fact that on this submarine still continue small work, even after input. The Russians change the names of the submarin, probably in trying to "mask" the fact that underwater ships still need refinement. This was reported in the Defense Express.

Experts noted that on January 31, 2024, the Navy of the Russian Federation adopted a diesel-electric submarine B-586 "Kronstadt" of Project 677 "Lada", introduced into the Northern Fleet. However, according to the newspaper, after the "pompous ceremony" input into the output of the fleet, this underwater ship did not leave the shipbuilding enterprise "Admiralteis Ships" in St. Peterbus. Subsequently, the Cronstadt submarine was grabbed a plate called "St. Petersburg".

The publication believes that, probably, the Russians have done so to "mask" the fact that small work is still underway on this submarine, even after formal input into the system. The experts noted that earlier the name "St. Petersburg" carried another underwater ship of the project 677 "Lada", which was in a "suspended" state. Back in April 2023, the Russians declared their intention to write off "St. Petersburg", because this boat was cheaper to dispose of than repair.

But now, according to analysts, confirmation because the Russian Federation has started to dispose of this submarine - there is no, instead there is a statement that this underwater ship is simply "brought to the reserve".

"However, this whole story with the substitution of submarin names is quite indicative in terms of attempts to" bake "such a problem - Russian ships instead of a" analogous "submarine have handed over a problem ship that needs to be finalized, and the Navy leadership of the Russian Federation was simply" closed Eyes, "the report said.

As experts add, the Russians declared that the submarines of the project 677" Lada "will become the first in their fleet to have an air -independent autonomous power plant, which will allow for a long time to be underwater. However, it came out. "Diesel-electric submarines, which took a very long time. For example, the completion of" Kronstadt "lasted 16 years.
