Liverpool, Merseyside, UK, 26th May, 2013. The Russian ship Vice-Admiral Kulakov at the 70th Commemoration of the Battle of Atlantic part of the Liverpool Waterfront Event. The Battle of the Atlantic was the longest continuous military campaign of the Second World War and was pivotal to the overall success of the allied forces.
The Vice-Admiral Kulakov was commissioned in 1982 and was on combat duty with the Northern Fleet until March 1991, when she was retired for repairs that lasted more than 18 years. The ship returned to the Severomorsk base on December 7, 2010 and is to return to active duty. [1] On 5 January 2011, a fire broke out in one of the ship's mess-rooms. It was reported to be caused by a short circuit. The damage was minimal and did not reduce the combat effectiveness of the ship.[2] On 3 September 2011 the destroyer conducted the first underway landings tests for the new Ka-52K helicopter.
