The frigate Tag is at sea for performance trials in its second long journey into the Baltic Sea since the start of the trials, which are proceeding according to schedule, Mikhailov said.

The frigate's power plant is being tested. Other equipment and weapons will be tested in further trials. Live firing will be practiced and the deck helicopter crews will practice take-off and landing maneuvers, he said.
The Tag is to be handed over to the Indian Navy in late 2011, Mikhailov said.
