Belesarius Posted May 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Brazilian River monitor, entered service in 1938, still serving. " Entering service in 1938, the Brazilian river monitor Parnaíba is the world's oldest warship in active service. Displacing over 700 tons, the ship has a draft under 6' (1.6m), enabling her to cruise the many rivers and coastal estuaries of Brazil. Parnaíba is armed with a 76mm gun as well as smaller weapons including two 40mm bofors, six oerlikon 20mm, as well as two mortars.

Parade is over (both naval and air parts), some photos were taken during parade and some more after (several ships were just "parked" in the middle of Neva river). Currently drinking in Burger King with friend, will post photos when get back to home. Lord_James and Laviduce 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted July 28, 2019 Report Share Posted July 28, 2019 So here is my "report" from St.Petersburg parade of the Navy Forces during Navy day. I made it in 3 parts - first is intro, second is parade and 3rd part is shots of ships after parade was done and majority of crowds around Neva river went home, so photos from 3rd part are better. Part 1, "Intro". One of maps with possibly good observation places. I wanted to get to 3 or 4 through subway station on the left part of screenshot (on the Green line), but my companions convinced me to use Admiralteyskaa and get to place near 2 or cross the Dvortsoviy bridge to 1 or 3. We ended up near point 5 because bridge was already closed and path to the left was filled with way too many humans. Admiralteyskaya subway station, around 10:09. All escalators were working in one way to get as much people out of subway station as possible. Amount of people was higher than during rush hours in weekdays. Spoiler On the way to Dvortsovaya quay. View from our place without zoom. Kind of bad, with all those peoples in front. Will try to post edited photos in part 2 as much as possible. Bridge is open, parade will start soon, after Putin's speech that we didn't heard or saw, kek. Before that a salvo of cannons announced start of parade. Cannons were located on the other side of river from us, near Petropavlovskaya fortress, shockways were pretty strong and shot sounds were very loud. Probably TV crew was in this Kamov, as this helicopter was doing circles around parade. Part 2. Main parade. Cropped number of photos, some ships were so small that making photos of them from my place would have been useless endeavour. Lol, this is what majority of my photos looked like. Spoiler Part 3 - Repositioning to get to first rows and best views! After Navy Aviation ended their part parade was over and people started to go back to subway stations and bus stops. We used that moment to make better photos and move to better places to look at other ships we didn't saw (near point 3 on map) Spoiler Even god damn orchestra was in the way, haha. A lot of Police and Rosgvardia personal was involved in blocking some of streets around main crowd. Flanking attempt was a success! And photos of rest of ships (2 ships and 1 sub) Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Scolopax, Lord_James, Beer and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoooSeR Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Part of St.Petersburg parade took place near Kronshtadt - basically an island in the Gulf of Finland that worked as defence line and Navy military base for our city. Chinese ship participated, BTW. Spoiler 2 more photos from parade inside of city. Spoiler Lord_James, Belesarius and Laviduce 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
