Russian warships carried out routine training drills in the White Sea to escort and protect a convoy of ships, the state-operated TASS news agency reported on Sunday. The exercises, as per the Russian Defence Ministry, included standard combat training procedures.
During these drills, two small anti-submarine ships, Onega and Naryan-Mar, undertook operations to manage the usage of combat weapons and radio-electronic warfare equipment in scenarios of attacks from both air and sea.
The previous day, the Onega and Naryan-Mar completed training and combat missions aimed at repelling a hypothetical air attack, TASS quoted a defence ministry statement. As part of the air defense exercise, the warships fired at simulated air targets using anti-aircraft missile systems and naval cannons.
