All carriers of Caliber cruise missiles of the Russian Black Sea Fleet, except for one, are moored to the shore in the occupied Crimea.
As of December 1, 13 out of 14 ships capable of launching long-range cruise missiles were not at sea, but were in port. Two of the two Grigorovich-class frigates, three of the four Buyan-M frigates, four of the four patrol ships (one of which has been anchored on the canal for more than three weeks) and four of the four improved submarines are moored to the shore. American OSINT researcher MT Anderson wrote about this on Twitter with reference to satellite data.
According to him, the Russian Black Sea Fleet has 14 ships and submarines that are capable of launching long-range cruise missiles.
Meanwhile, the head of the Nikolaev regional military administration, Vitaly Kim, reported on December 2 that the aggressor had brought a large number of ships of the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation into the Black Sea. However, only one ship has Caliber cruise missiles on board – their number is 12 pieces.
Recall that OK Yug stated that the ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in the Black Sea are collecting intelligence data in preparation for possible missile strikes on Ukraine.
