NATO blocks Russian fleet in the Baltic Sea, pressure is growing

The Russian Navy is facing increasing challenges in the Baltic Sea as NATO and its new members try to block Russian ships. Sweden, which joined NATO in 2024, has deployed a new anti-ship missile, the RBS 15 Mark 3, capable of hitting Russian ships in St Petersburg and Kaliningrad, writes defence analyst David Axe in an article for The Telegraph. “Sweden will receive a significant capability increase with an anti-ship missile featuring a more advanced target seeker, increased range and a larger warhead,” said Görgen Johansson, a Saab executive. The RBS 15 Mark 3, which is radar-guided and has a range of up to 190km, can attack ships and land targets. Combined with sensors on land, in the air, on the water and underwater, the missiles effectively block Russian warships from accessing the Atlantic Ocean. The Russian Navy is facing pressure from more than just Sweden. Sweden’s growing anti-ship missile arsenal was less threatening to Russia before the latter widened its war on Ukraine in February 2022 and drove Sweden, once NATO-leaning but formally neutral, into the transatlantic alliance. Sweden joined NATO in March 2024. Its neighbor Finland, also a former neutral state, had joined 11 months prior. Other Baltic countries have significantly beefed up their defences. Estonia has purchased Blue Spear 5G missiles with a range of 200 miles, while Latvia has acquired Naval Strike missiles. “The chosen weapon system will form the cornerstone of Estonian naval defence for decades to come,” said Jüri Saska, commander of the Estonian navy. With NATO expansion and the addition of Sweden and Finland, the Baltic Sea has become one of the most challenging regions for the Russian Navy. This calls into question its ability to effectively operate in a conflict with NATO. Axe writes that it remains an open question whether the Russian Navy can resist in the Baltic Sea if tensions with NATO escalate into open warfare. İt is noted that NATO’s expansion in reaction to the Russian attack on Ukraine has made the Baltic Sea an extremely hostile place for the Russian navy. And it’s growing even more hostile with every missile Sweden and its fellow NATO members deploy. http://youtube.com/kanal13az/join - click here and support Kanal13 monthly for distributing more videos and independent journalism http://t.me/kanal13tv & https://bit.ly/37BVMqU https://www.youtube.com/user/kanal13az?sub_confirmation=1 https://bit.ly/2Rs6MB3 #lastminutenewsfromukraine #kanal13ukraine https://bit.ly/2V19Fdy Click here and just subscribe to Kanal13 - https://www.youtube.com/user/kanal13az?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/KANAL13AZ/join *ATTENTION: If you woul like to contact with US please, write to +49176 75077516 WhatsApp ▌▌►Website: http://kanal13.tv/ http://www.facebook.com/tvkanal13 https://twitter.com/Kanal13Az https://www.instagram.com/kanal13.az Click & Subscribe to the main youtube Channel © KANAL13 [ Azərbaycanın ilk peşəkar internet televiziyası ] The First Internet TV of Azerbaijan Tags: #Ukriane, #Russia, #Putin, #Putler, #Russian invasion of Ukraine, #Zelenski, #Kiev, #Kyiv, #Kadirov army, #Kadirov, #Kherson, #Bucha, #Kharkiv, #Ukrainian pilots, #vagners, #Russian tanks, #NATO, #drones, #Moscow, #Kreml, #war victims #Ukraina, News, The Washington Post, waPo Video, Washington Post Video, Washington Post YouTube, a:politics, aid, biden, putin, s:Politics, support, t:Other, Ukraine, war, fact check, news coverage, Donald Trump, news, wp video, forbes, nytimes, newspaper, media, journalism, Ilham Aliyev, Baku, Azerbaijan, Israel, Gaza, Palestine, Tel-Aviv, Garabag, Karabakh, football, ronaldo, messi, brian tyler cohen
