French warship will visit St. Petersburg during IMDS-2011
29.03.2011
As is expected, French naval ship will pay business visit to Russia's maritime capital to attend the 5th International Maritime Defense Show since June 29 till July 3, 2011.
So far it is uncertain which exactly ship will call at St. Petersburg.
Arrival of French warships at St. Petersburg to take part in IMDS seems to become a tradition. French Eridan class minesweepers M644 Pegase and M650 Sagittaire participated in IMDS-2009 and aroused great interest of experts and visitors. Traditional hospitality and kindness of French mariners were fully uncovered – the ships were open for public almost all the time.
