SAINT-PETERSBURG, 22.02.2017.

In the water area of JSC «Admiralty Shipyards» (which is integrated in United Shipbuilding Corporation) were conducted training exercises of the marines of the Navy’s Joint Training Center for release of a ship conventionally captured by sea pirates. The training exercises were arranged as a part of scheduled training of the marines for carrying out missions onboard the Navy’s ships within anti-terror groups.

In the course of the training, the marine unit practiced the landing elements on a suspicious vessel, checking of its main deck, erections and indoor spaces as well as release of the ship from sea pirates. Besides, during the training the marines drilled the components of anti-terror defenses of a stationing site.

Tugboat «Vladimir Beltsov» of JSC «Admiralty Shipyards» with deadweight over 400 tons and length of 25 meters was designated as the vessel, captured by the pirates. The choice in favor of JSC «Admiralty Shipyards» as a ground for carrying out of the exercises was contributed, to a large extent, by availability of up-to-date shipboard personnel and required infrastructure at the enterprise.
