Northern Fleet ship crews drilled sea-borne landing on the shore of an Arctic island captured by an “enemy,” the Fleet’s Press Service reports.A squadron of combat ships led by an antisubmarine warfare ship, Severomorsk, held tactical exercises on Alexandra Land, an island in the Franz Joseph Land archipelago, drilling a sea-borne landing on an unequipped coast. The Northern Fleet force had to win back a jumping-off ground occupied by illegal armed groups and ensure the landing of an assault party.According to the Press Service, a group trained to fight underwater sabotage forces reconnoitered the terrain in a post-landing raid, whereupon Severomorsk fired its AK-100 guns at the aggressor’s positions and a Kamov Ka-27 deck-pad helicopter airlifted a unit of Marines. After they organized on-shore positions, an assault landing ship, Alexander Otrakovsky, approached the coastline and landed two-section all-terrain vehicles with Marines on board and a UR-77 self-propelled mine clearing rocket system that made a passage in the minefields.
