RusNavy.com is the only large host available in English containing information about Russian Navy. This host is created to provide the popular information about Russian Navy and recent scientific information, concerning marine research and technologies all over the world.

During more then three centuries of battles and naval campaigns under the standard of St. Andrew, the Russian Navy experienced periods of expansion as well as periods of decline and ill-preparedness. Nevertheless, Russia’s fleet preserved its leading position in the military and political history of the country. With the exception of the Hungarian campaign of 1849, Russian seamen were in essential part of Russia’s military strategy from the time of Peter the Great onwards; not infrequently Russia’s land forces won wars as a consequence of its naval victories. The successful naval campaign at Gangut, Chesma, Hogland, Vyborg, Tendra, Kaliakria, Korfu, Athos, Navarino and Sinop vindicated the maintenance of a powerful fleet.
When Russia’s fleet suffered defeats at sea, Russian seamen also served in the army and constituted a formidable ground force. The struggle by Russia’s marina forces in the land battles at Sevastopol and Port Arthur were no less valorous than were the naval campaigns at sea.
Writing detailed accounts of their travels, Russian seamen and naval officers explored and charted the world’s seas, adding over four thousand Russian place names to the world map. Long expeditions by naval squadrons and the maritime display of the nation’s colors in a peacetime made Russia influential throughout the world; successful campaigns at sea strengthened the position of Russian diplomats abroad.
The new Red fleet assumed control of the Imperial Navy’s glory, ships and seamen. Owing to their continued service, the Navy managed to preserve a surprising number of the traditions and procedures of the Imperial’s fleet, and continuity in succession underlay the Soviet Navy’s outgoing strength. Soviet Navy had successfully been displaying USSR’s sea power all over the world since 1919.
Following decades of soviet rule, the sky-blue cross of St. Andrew once again flies over the ships of the Russian Navy, serving to link past and present.

We have been working in a host for ten years tried to collect historic, publicist and research materials, both private and official sources connected with Russian NAVY and naval forces from other countries. We are ruled by simple and clear principles such as democracy, independence, patriotism, actuality and interest priorities. Every visitor can find a lot of information about History of Russian Navy, Education, Museum exhibitions, relevant Science researches, list of friendly organizations and Web sites, etc. We have good abilities to translate all materials from Russian into English language and back. Some articles or themes should be translated without any request. We are looking for enthusiastic visitors make a support with interesting stories, research materials, pictures or other subjects in marine themes. Would you like to join us in wardroom or messingspace, or participate by yours photos, stories, and points of view – you are welcome!
