Fartøyet passerer i dag sørover langs norskekysten og fikk besøk av et norsk fly. (Red;)

The Russian Navy's first Project 22350 frigate, the Admiral Gorshkov, has set out on a deployment armed, in part, with new Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles, according to officials in that country. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu announced Gorshkov's deployment during a ceremony on January 4, which he said would see the warship sail in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and the Mediterranean Sea. Despite this reported operational deployment, details about Zircon remain limited, including its exact capabilities or its true developmental state. Regardless, Russia at least wants everyone to believe it is now operational and at sea on one of its most advanced warships.
