Russia launched a new ship with "Caliber"
At the Zelenodolsk plant named after A.M. Gorky in Tatarstan, a solemn ceremony of launching the serial small rocket ship of Project 21631 took place, which was given the name “Grad” by order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Admiral Nikolai Evmenov.
“Project 21631 ships have actually proven their high efficiency while operating in the Navy. Their characteristics have been tested in practice. The expanded serial construction of Project 21631 small missile ships has made it possible to significantly strengthen the potential of the surface forces of the Navy, which today honorably carries out tasks of any complexity,” the Russian Navy Commander-in-Chief said in his congratulations.
The event also included the traditional breaking of a bottle of champagne on the side of the ship by the “godmother”, as well as the awarding of the best plant workers who have made a significant contribution to the development of shipbuilding production.
Small rocket ships of Project 21631 are being built at the Zelenodolsk plant named after A.M. Gorky since 2010. According to the developer, they are multi-purpose ships and are equipped with the most modern weapons.
Currently, nine units of this project are successfully performing their assigned tasks in the Russian Navy.
