Ever since the United States provoked the conflict in Ukraine, the situation in Eastern Europe has been full of powder kegs. In recent days, the leaders of Germany and France have tried to extinguish the fire and cool down the crisis in Ukraine, but the United States has not been moved, still rendering the false news that "Russia is about to invade Ukraine".
At a time when American politicians are wandering around intensively carrying out anti-Russian propaganda, the United States and its allies have quietly launched military operations, the United States has successively increased troops to Poland and Romania, britain has also sent manpower to Eastern Europe to deal with potential conflicts, and NATO has also driven aircraft carriers to Russia's "doorstep".
The United States, France, and Italy sent three aircraft carriers to carry out "multi-carrier combat exercises" in the Mediterranean, and the US aircraft carrier "Truman", the French "Charles de Gaulle" aircraft carrier, and the Italian "Cavour" aircraft carrier formed a rare deterrent three-aircraft carrier formation, and the spearhead was directed at Russia. In addition to the United States, the lineup of three aircraft carriers can be taken out, and it is already a rare opponent in the world. Therefore, during training, the three aircraft carriers also posed multiple shapes for reporters to take pictures, which will become "sugar-coated shells" for pressure on Russia in the future.
But the fighting nation is not a vegetarian, seeing NATO come up with a luxurious three aircraft carriers, Putin also showed three cruisers, also in the Mediterranean sea military exercises. Generally speaking, ordinary cruisers lack firepower to be compared with aircraft carriers, and it is completely humiliating to try to use cruisers against aircraft carriers. However, Russia did not come up with ordinary cruisers this time, but the "aircraft carrier killer" -- the "Glory Class" cruiser developed by the former Soviet Union in order to restrain the US supercarriers, and the prestige of the red giant beast once shocked the ocean and made the US aircraft carrier fleet sleep and eat.
The Glory class ship is 186 meters long, the full load displacement is more than 11,000 tons, the maximum speed is 32.5 knots, the ship is fully equipped, can be described as armed to the teeth, the most domineering is its side of the 8 twins a total of 16 P-500 "basalt" heavy supersonic anti-ship missiles, anti-ship missile performance can be described as "perverted". Although it is a product of the Cold War period, time has not worn down its fierce combat effectiveness. Although it is difficult to directly confront the aircraft carrier, but there is a real conflict, these three Glory-class cruisers are enough to make the U.S. military drink a pot.
In addition to the strong Russian style and strong combat effectiveness, these three Glorious-class cruisers also have extraordinary meaning for Russia. At that time, the Soviet Union developed this model precisely to "work together against NATO aircraft carriers", which can be said to be the bottom card of the former Soviet Union. Over time, these three cruisers have become one of the strongest fighting forces in the hands of the Russian army, and they are also Russia's housekeeper treasures. Unfortunately, as the last cruiser developed by the former Soviet Union, the Glory class ships were somewhat untimely, not only failed to complete their mission, but also became the last sunset with the disappearance of the red giant, and it was not until recent years that it ended idle.
Although the Glory-class cruiser is not the most effective of the Russian military, the three warships together are still full of deterrence, and the assembly of three cruisers in the same area is the first time since the establishment of the Russian Navy, which shows that under the pressure of the United States, Putin has made up his mind to fight back.
In response to the crisis, Russia has also laid out around Ukraine to deal with potential conflict. Last month, Russia had already sent more troops to Belarus, while a few days earlier Putin had ignored U.S. warnings by sending six Russian landing ships into the Black Sea to point a straight finger at Ukraine's weakness. Upon arrival at Sevastopol Naval Base, these six fully loaded amphibious landing ships will greatly enhance the Amphibious Landing Combat Capability of the Black Sea Fleet.
At present, The Ukrainian heavy army is concentrated in the northeast, the defense in the south is useless, and the Ukrainian navy is weak, it is difficult to launch an effective attack, if the Black Sea Fleet encounters the Ukrainian Navy, it is bound to be a crushing and decaying crush. As long as Putin is determined to solve the Ukrainian problem, there is no reason why it cannot be solved.
The Russian army is fully capable of besieging Ukraine from the north, east and south, this time Putin took out the "strongest family foundation" of the former Soviet Union, and also made it clear that Russia will never compromise with NATO, even if the NATO aircraft carrier lineup is luxurious, the momentum of the fighting nation is not lost at all, and if you want to show off your might in the Mediterranean, the United States is almost meaningless!
