VLADIVOSTOK. Oct 22 (Interfax-AVN) - A unit of the Russian Pacific Fleet's ships, including the large anti-submarine ship Admiral Vinogradov, is making a port call in Busan, South Korea, which hosts the Kormarine-2013 international shipbuilding and marine equipment exhibition, a Pacific Fleet Staff spokesman told Interfax-AVN on Tuesday.

"The large anti-submarine ship Admiral Vinogradov, being accompanied by the medium sea tanker Irkut and the tow ship Kalar, entered South Korea's Port Busan today in order to take part in the international marine equipment and weapons exhibition," he said.

The ships sailed out of their base in Vladivostok on October 19. Their deployment, which will last for around two months, includes port calls in Myanmar and South Korea.
