Plus, they are short range so within easy striking distance for air launched cruise missiles.

Russia should put some USKS on river barges. Much cheaper.

The marine brigade took under the protection of the Black Sea gas producers.

Patrolling of the Black Sea area, where Russian gas production platforms are located, is assigned to the 41st Guards Brigade of Missile Ships, Izvestia reports.

According to the command of the Black Sea Fleet, the ships of the 41st Guards Brigade started round-the-clock protection of the fields of the state-owned company Chernomorneftegaz. Rotation of crews is held every 2 weeks. Small anti-submarine ships and rocket boats are involved in patrolling. Previously, this task was being handled by the Coast Guard of the FSB border troops.

Hole wrote:There are already hundreds of tugs in service for that purpose. No need to build them. The barges could be moored most of the time. A floating missile base.

Hole wrote:Nope.

If you put cruise missiles an barges camouflaged as transports for coal or timber or put containers with Kalibr missiles onto river container ships or freighters and then let the enemy know what you did, he would have to monitor all river shipping in Russia. Which would be nearly impossible to do. The enemy would still try it and spend billions and billions.

You could also build a few barges with silos without putting missiles in them. Or reload missiles from one to another. The enemy would still have to treat any barge or freighter as an important target which he had to attack. You could lay a trap and deploy air defence assets in the near of this fake or empty targets.

In the meantime your real assets could attack the enemy.

Cancel the purpose-build barges. Just use the containers on river ships.
