MOSCOW, July 19 (RIA Novosti) - The Russian Pacific Fleet will start
receiving new warships in 2014 for the first time since the collapse
of the Soviet Union, the fleet's commanders said.
"Rather large-scale deliveries of new equipment, new warships to the
Pacific Fleet will start in 2014," Rear Admiral Sergei Avakyants said
in an interview with Rossiya 24 television on Thursday.
Avakyants emphasized the fact that the fleet received a new warship
last time in 1991.
According to the Russian military, at least one of the two
Mistral-class helicopter carriers, being built in France for the
Russian navy, is intended for the Pacific Fleet, which has already
prompted concerns in Japan.

Steregushchy-class corvettes are being built for the Pacific Fleet
at the Amur shipyard in Russia's Far East with estimated delivery
in 2014-2015.
In addition, one of the first Borey-class ballistic missile submarines
will be put in service with the fleet after the much anticipated
commissioning by the end of 2013, according to the Russian Defense
Ministry.
The Pacific Fleet currently consists of the Varyag missile cruiser,
four Udaloy-class destroyers, a Sovremenny-class destroyer and
dozens of submarines, including five Delta III-class ballistic
missile submarines.
