The Russian Ministry of Defense has released as series of pictures depicting a counter-sabotage “exercise” where terrorist frogmen attack one of their North Fleet submarines’ support infrastructure. Some of which are right out of your favorite over-the-top ‘80s action movie.

Guns up! The frogmen in the picture above are toting seldom-seen . They fire self-contained rocket-like 5.66mm X 120mm dart cartridges, 26 of which ares stuffed in those huge banana magazines.

On guard and on patrol! Russia’s MoD says the bazooka the guy on the bow is carrying is a rocket-propelled grenade launcher called the VP-61 “The Duel” and is capable of stunning swimmers within a few hundred meters of detonation. It is also probably one hell of a “fishing rod.”

The Russian MoD also mentions that anti-terror exercises will be a regular occurrence at its military bases in 2016. Hopefully they all include awesomely corny pictures like these.
