Kalashnikov combat boats - BK-10 and BK-16.

Rossiyskaya Gazeta recalled that the figures inThe names of the boats indicate the length of the vessel in meters. These boats are produced mainly for the Russian Navy, but they have recently begun to be supplied to the Russian Guard. Also BK-10 and BK-16 are sold abroad.

Boats are used to quickly deliver troops and support the landing with fire. For this purpose, the BK-10 and BK-16 have machine guns. It is reported that ideally the boats should fight in pairs.

For example, the heavier and better protected BK-16will approach the coastline first. At this time, the faster BK-10 will jump out from behind its “back” and deliver the first group of military personnel to land. They will ensure the landing of the second group from BK-16 under cover.

The video showed the speed characteristics and maneuverability of the boats, as well as their operation in blackout mode.
