A complex target position, simulating a detachment of landing ships from a fictitious enemy, was successfully hit by Kalibr cruise missiles and Granit missiles at a distance of about 170 kilometers. According to objective control data, the combat exercise was successfully completed, and the missile weapons used once again confirmed their inherent characteristics and high reliability.

To ensure safety, the missile firing area was closed in advance to civilian flights and aviation. The combat exercise was conducted by ships of the Kola Flotilla of heterogeneous forces of the Northern Fleet, demonstrating the fleet’s responsiveness and effectiveness in joint operations.

The Barents Sea is a marginal sea of the Arctic Ocean, located off the northern coasts of Norway and Russia, and divided between Norwegian and Russian territorial waters.
