ST.PETERSBURG, February 9 (AVN) - The Russian Navy plans to make an order for designing a floating jet mine for coastal waters, an informed source of the Gridropribor R&D institute told the Military News Agency.
The mines of this type are better protected from anti-mine weapons and thus can better protect naval military bases.
It is possible to set these mines either from ships or from submarines.
The Gidropribor R&D institute and the Morfizpribor institute are expected to receive this order.
