But anti-ship missiles in an environment where you are the only ship around are pretty nonsensicalOriginally Posted by Khathi
IIRC, they still are designed with foundations for them, so they could be armed on a short notice. After all, to be able to use your nuclear icebreakers as auxiliary cruisers is always an asset. Now imagine putting a couple of sets of containerized Club missiles on the deck — an instant icebreaker CGN!

Then you can go down to meet other ships if you want..But anti-ship missiles in an environment where you are the only ship around are pretty nonsensical
It's very important for the Russian soldier to be sexy.
I'll repost the video I picked somewhere in the OT&H section, just to depict icebreaking and cargo operations on ice.

Thanks for the answer, but it doesn't make any sense! I do have ushanka- problem is - can't hear a **** with it and it feels like i am wearing a dog on my head. Can't even imagine what is like with helmet on it.
What about helmet winter liner, jack pyke and polar balaclava? Works well in -25 with old PASGT and MICH.
And i bet it's even cheaper to make all them than a posh ushanka as that i only spent 20 euros for that stuff(without military discount). Plus it's much more better too - don't need to have a big kastriulia. Poor soldier with that helmet has a bigger profile than t-90.
That is some very expensive stuff. Things I mentioned above should be a must..
And can someone translate
"шлем для защиты лица" what in hell is it? Face helmet..????
Face protection helmet.
Ermak and Krasin names sound like a song from childhood. My favorite child book were "Sedovtsy" of Konstantin Badigin, about "Georgy Sedov" vessel, stucked into ice and has spent the winter 1938 in Arktika alone, untill icebreacker "Josef Stalin" released itErmak

Krasin 1916 built

LLS "Caesar Kunikov" is the flagship of "Blackseefor" with participation of Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey.

Not really. A summer suit (rightmost) costs, IIRC, some 1920 RUR or ~$64. Three more suits (rain suit, soft shell suit and extreme cold suit) will set you back maybe some 300 bucks more. Throw in a fleece jacket and windbreaker, and two sets of thermals, and you'll get $500-600 for the full set. Certainly more expensive than old ХБ, but much, much better. Have you ever tried working in cotton long johns in -30? Not a pleasant experience by any stretch. BTW, a modern synthetic socks and balaclava (which you can roll up into a beanie hat) are included in the set.
That's just an officialeze for balaclava. This means that you can roll and stretch is whatever you want, but normally it would cover your face.
Still not convinced by the parsley camo though.
Just saw a transit column of various TELs (St. Petersburg, probably some parade rehearsal or whatever) and noticed something never seen before by me - Tochka-like vehicle with something large covered on it's "hump", looked like a bigass radar turret or Pantsir assembly. Couldn't photo it, and google didn't yield anything either. What's that could be?
