SOVIET SEA POWER TODAY COLD WAR ERA RUSSIAN NAVY CAPABILITIES 80434

Made by the U.S. Navy at the height of the Cold War, this film observes current Soviet naval forces and attempts to assess their global reach and strategy. By this time, the Soviets had achieved the world's largest submarine force, and supplemented it with state-of-the-art anti-submarine weapons including the helicopter aircraft carrier Moskva, which is shown in the film. Also shown are various other vessels, including Russian PT boats, Kashin class guided-missile destroyers, and Soviet nuclear submarines capable of firing nuclear ballistic missiles. A brief history of the Soviet navy is presented under Lenin, Stalin and Kruschev, and its aims assessed. The film notes that the current Soviet navy must be assessed not only in terms of warships, but for its omnipresence throughout the world in the form of the fishing fleet (used to gather intelligence) and merchant marine. Shown in the film are Soviet cruise ships, oceanographic research vessels and submarines, nuclear submarines, and ice breakers. Also shown is footage of Stalin, Lenin, Red Square, the 50th Anniversary of the Russian Revolution parade in Moscow, and more.
