The Kamchatka Military Flotilla (Russian: Камчатская флотилия, romanized: Kamchatskaya flotiliya) is a flotilla of the Russian Navy.
On December 14, 1849, in accordance with the Decree of Emperor Nicholas I, the Okhotsk military flotilla was transferred to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky in Kamchatka. Thus December 14 became marked as the celebratory "Day" of the flotilla/NEGTF.
Formed in 1945, the Kamchatka Flotilla of diverse forces was reorganized during the 1960s;[citation needed] on 15 October 1979 the Kamchatka Flotilla was formed (or reformed).[1] In March 1998 the Northeastern Group of Troops and Forces was created from the Kamchatka Flotilla. It was based on the Kamchatka Peninsula and had responsibility for a coastal zone of the Pacific Ocean. On April 30, 1975, the flotilla was awarded the Order of the Red Banner.
The Kamchatka Flotilla's forces in 1988 included the 173rd Anti-Submarine Warfare Brigade (Ilicheva Bay, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka); 114th Coastal Defence Brigade; 182nd Submarine Brigade (Krasheninnikova Bay, Kamchatka Oblast); and the 104th independent Hydrographic Ship Battalion at Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka.[1]
Until 1 June 2002, the 22nd Motor Rifle Division of the Far East Military District was located on the peninsula. It then became the 40th independent Motorised Rifle Brigade. In September 2007 it became the 40th Independent (twice Red Banner) Krasnodar-Harbin twice Red Banner Naval Infantry Brigade.[2] This situation lasted until March, 2009 when it became the 3rd Naval Infantry Regiment, and later the 40th Naval Infantry Brigade.
