In this handout video grab released by the Russian Defence Ministry, the Aleksin third rank small anti-submarine warship takes part in planned exercises of the Russian Baltic Fleet involving 3,000 military personnel, 20 warships, around 25 aircraft and helicopters, and up to 70 units of military and specialised equipment to defend their bases in the Baltic Sea, Russia. The Russian drills will test the readiness and capabilities of the crews of the fleet's ships to solve anti-submarine tasks at combat training grounds, work out protection against unmanned boats, and conduct practical artillery firing at sea and air targets, the defence ministry said on May 27.
