“The construction of 6 diesel-electrical submarines (project 636) for the Black Sea Fleet is under the control of the Main Navy Command. “Novorossiysk” and “Rostov-on-Don” submarines were put into service in 2014. The flag was hoisted at “Stary Oskol” submarine this month. “Krasnodar” submarine will join the Navy by the end of 2015,” said the Commander-in-Chief.

Two more submarines of project 636 “Kolpino” and “Veliky Novgorod”, which are planned to be put into service by the end of 2016, are now under active phase of construction at the “Admiralty Shipyard”. When these submarines will reach Novorossiysk in 2015-2016, it will be able to speak about the rebirth of the Black Sea Fleet submarine forces.
