Russia's newest submarine, the Magadan, fired its Caliber off the coast of Japan.

The diesel-electric submarine Magadan, the newest submarine in service with the Russian Navy's Pacific Fleet, frightened the Japanese military with its unexpected cruise missile launches. The Japanese military failed to detect the Russian submarine in time, as the launches were carried out from under the water. This was a complete surprise for Japan's air defense systems.

Launches of Russian cruise missiles from under the water are training. As part of the latter, the launched missiles hit targets in the waters of the Sea of ​​Japan and on the coast, fully confirming the readiness of the Russian submarine to carry out the assigned combat missions.

“The first missile successfully hit a sea target - a target shield that imitates a surface ship of a mock enemy. The second missile hit a coastal target at the Surkum tactical field in the Khabarovsk Territory at the estimated time. The firing range was more than a thousand kilometers., - according to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

However, the Japanese air defenses, put on full alert due to missile launches by North Korea, could only detect missiles already in flight, which came as a complete surprise to the Japanese military.
