    Have you heard about the new landing ship supposed to be called ADMIRAL GREN ?
    PS : I am not even sure of the name spelling, sorry .
    Yes, The IVAN GREN is in construction. Expected to be the first of a series. No further details available yet.

    From memory: only two ships have the Kh-35 URAN at the moment. They are the destroyers SMETLYVYY and the frigate TATARSTAN. 2 other ships were also equipped with the system for a while (a KRIVAK class frigate and MATKA class hydrofoil) but the missiles were later removed.

    The Navy is not very keen on the Kh-35 URAN as they have more capable missiles like the MOSKIT and CLUB.

    In addition the Kh-35 is available as an air launched version and a coastal defense version (the BAL-E system).

    Does anyone know the name of the mysterious small launcher/mortar seen at 1:37 in the vid? I'm having a tough time finding its listing among the ships's armaments.

    Podpolkovnik Mark Yevtyukhin was an inspirational leader who displayed selfless courage in the face of countless waves of Salafi Jihadist scum. His picture is the second down on the first column on the left in the image above. Rest in Peace, soldier.
