As America(NATO) continues with the threats, (300)Russian marine forces land in the heart of Europe

Greetings,

189870795As the threat of more sanctions come from Washington, and while  NATO’s war rhetoric becoming more belligerent and louder, Russia is quietly demonstrating power projection to all involved parties without the bluster of media and propaganda. They are showing Europe and NATO that they could easily invade the very heart of NATO/Europe if they so chose to do.

krus Look at where Kaliningrad lies and this shows you that Europe better be more careful in their threats and rhetoric!!!!

(RIA Novosti) – More than 300 marines of the Russian Baltic Fleet conducted a training assault Friday on the coastline of a hypothetical aggressor in the Kaliningrad region, the fleet’s press service said.

“We are practicing suppression missions on fortified coastal settlements of a hypothetical aggressor using naval firepower, landing operations on an unimproved shore, as well as warfare tactics with amphibious assault forces,” the statement said.

In the near future, the soldiers are to finish their exercises and complete the combat training missions for marine and airborne training. Their final examination in combat training will be participation in battalion-level tactical exercises.

In addition to the marines, about 20 military vehicles are involved in the training, as well as several landing boats and the Mordovia, a Zubr-class air-cushioned landing craft, the world’s largest hovercraft design.

The Zubr-class hovercraft are designed to transport military equipment along with airborne units and to discharge troops on unimproved shores while providing suppressive fire. The ships are also equipped to lay mines.
