The fleet is commanded by Colonel Potapov Aleksandr Valerievich and carries 482 officers and crewmembers on board.

The visit is intended to intensify bilateral defence cooperation between the two armies and the two navies in particular.

During their stay, the naval officers and crewmembers plan to lay wreaths at the city’s monument for war martyrs and heroes, pay courtesy visits to leaders of the municipal People’s Committee and the High Command of the Naval Region 3, and visit several tourist attractions in Da Nang and the surrounding provinces.
