Before the beginning of the war, the Black Sea Fleet had 275 ships and vessels, of which only 74 were combat units, including patrol boats.
Before the war, the publication The Insider wrote that in the Black Sea before the invasion, Russia had six diesel-electric submarines, six large surface ships, including a missile cruiser, 36 other ships and auxiliary vessels in the Black Sea zone. In January 2022, under the pretext of exercises, six large amphibious ships of other navies entered the Black Sea.
