The Russian army launched a missile attack on the Ukrainian central city of Vinnitsa. However, this time, the Ukrainian army's Harpoon anti-ship missile was completely blocked and ineffective. In itself, the target of the shore-based version of the Harpoon anti-ship missile is to intercept Russian warships launching missiles close to the Ukrainian coastline.
But this time, the Russian army did not dispatch surface warships but directly dispatched submarine , using submarine-launched caliber cruise missiles to attack targets in Ukraine. The Russian Kilo-class submarine has a maximum displacement of 3126 tons when underwater, a submarine speed of 18-20 knots, a diving depth of 300 meters, a maximum diving depth of 450 meters, and a sea self-sustainability of 45-60 days. In addition to being able to launch torpedoes , and can also launch cruise missiles to strike ground targets.
Now, the Harpoon anti-ship missiles aided by the United States are completely ineffective. The Harpoon anti-ship missile looks very melancholy when looking at the vast sea! There is absolutely no way.
Of course, relying entirely on conventional submarines launching limited cruise missiles still cannot destroy Ukraine's military potential. However, the target of this attack was called the Officer's House, which seemed to be a military target. However, the full name of this place is "Officers' Home Concert Hall", and the building next to it is the "Life Home Memorial" building, which is mainly filled with various small companies, restaurants, cafes and small clinics. In the middle of the square is a commemorative sculpture made by MiG-21 fighter jets.
In fact, this kind of thing has exposed Russia's lack of in-depth reconnaissance capabilities. Russian missiles are indeed very powerful, but the Russian army lacks high-precision reconnaissance satellites, ground reconnaissance early warning aircraft and other university reconnaissance and monitoring equipment. Many times, the actual power of the missile cannot be fully utilized.
Just like in the battlefield of Donbas, and Seamas can suppress the tornado. The Uzbek Army's version of the Haimas, which has a tornado with a range of more than 70 kilometers, exceeds the Tornado rocket launcher in terms of ammunition load and explosive power. However, now, just a few Haimas outperform hundreds of Tornado rocket launchers.
Whether modern weapons can exert their power depends not just on comparing the range, explosion power, and armor thickness. Otherwise there is no explanation why the Seamus performed better than the Tornadoes.
The biggest difference between Haimas and Tornado is that Americans have more and more advanced synthetic aperture radar satellites and various reconnaissance satellites. It can monitor Russian military-controlled areas from space and search for and discover important Russian military targets. Then, there was the record of Haimas destroying more than 30 Russian ammunition depots, command posts, military depots and anti-aircraft missile positions in more than a week.
The Russian army does not have such battlefield monitoring capabilities, so the tornado rocket launcher can only wash the ground against the Ukrainian army positions on the front line. All kinds of intensive fire coverage are carried out, so the range, power and precision strike capabilities of the tornado are not brought into play.
In the maritime battlefield, although the Russian army is turning the Sea of Azov into an inland sea. However, Poland said that NATO is gradually controlling Baltic . In this regard, Zakharova pointed out that the Russian army will deploy military forces in the Baltic Sea if necessary. Zakharova said that the Russian military will not allow NATO to control the Baltic Sea.
The Russian army wants to control the Sea of Azov and the Baltic Sea at the same time. The main force of the Russian army Baltic Fleet is stationed in Kaliningrad . The main task is to cut off NATO's maritime supply lines.
Unlike Ukraine, whose navy is equal to Mongolian navy , the Russian military can firmly control the Sea of Azov. The overall situation in the Baltic Sea direction is indeed very unfavorable to Russia. Especially as Sweden and Finland join NATO, the Russian Baltic Fleet has actually been surrounded. The poor Northern Fleet is even worse.
In order to maintain the strategic balance in the Baltic Sea, the Russian military can control the sea transportation line from Russia to Kaliningrad through the Baltic Sea. Recently, the Russian military has dispatched three more nuclear submarines to the sea area.
Peter the Great of Russia was born and fought with Sweden for twenty years. He defeated Sweden and established an outlet to the sea in St. Petersburg before Russian power entered the Baltic Sea. After hundreds of years of fighting, Russia will never give up the Baltic Sea. However, how to control the Baltic Sea when the enemy is strong and we are weak at sea is an important issue for Russia.
