"The
first berths have already received the new-generation submarines Novorossiysk,
Rostov-on-Don and Stary Oskol," Tashlyk said. "The naval base will be able to accommodate up to seven same-type or promising diesel-electric submarines," he added. According to the department’s head, the design of the pier is unique as its basis is formed by inclined drilled piles with a length of up to 50 meters depending on the depth and a weight of 20 tons. "All parameters are record-breaking for Russia. The total length of the protecting structures is almost 2.5 kilometers [1.5 miles]. They have been built at depths of up to 27 meters," Tashlyk said. "All these structures have been ranked 5th in the rating of the longest and deepest hydro technical facilities of the same type," he added. © Copyright 2016 TASS. All rights reserved.
