Launches Russian K-300P Bastion-P And Kalibr Cruise Missiles From Crimea Towards Targets.
Video footage claiming to be from Crimea shows Russia launching a series of cruise missiles from land and sea-based platforms at targets in Ukraine. Launched were P-800 Oniks and Kalibr cruise missiles. First time to a Russian vessel fire so many of these missiles in succession. Interesting is that the P-800 initially is a anti-ship cruise missile that can also be used against ground targets. Missiles to take a 90 degree turn. There's a new image of this rocket. The Moscow Times said in an online article in 2015: "Each Kaliber missile launched from Russia's Caspian flotilla cost 1.2 million dolars". One of the commenters said that the Russian Ministry of Defense said that Russia had used over 1000.
