Russian Missile Corvette ‘Tsyklon’ Moors in Sokhumi
On September 29, a Russian missile corvette ‘Tsyklon’ has reportedly moored in the Sokhumi port of the occupied Abkhazia region. It is officially designated to participate in the “victory and independence day,” events scheduled for September 30.
At the port, the missile ship was reportedly met by the representatives of the local and Russian occupation authorities.
Tsyklon is one of Russia’s newest warships, a Karakurt class corvette, which was reportedly built in occupied Crimea and joined Russia’s Black Sea Fleet this summer. It is equipped with Pantsir-M (NATO: SA-22 “Greyhound” naval variant) air defense system and a launcher for eight Kalibr (NATO: SS-N-30A) cruise missiles.
