Talk:Coast Guard of Georgia

Renaming the Article
The Georgian Navy does not exist for almost 2 years now, so this is why I moved the page from Georgian Navy, to Georgian Coast Guard!!

Missile boat sunk?
There are press reports today that Russian naval vessels sunk a Georgian missile boat which tried to attack them. Any confirmations? Sv1xv (talk) 05:23, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

I am not going to belive such reports until Russians present real evidence - or Georgians confirm it. Even if something was sunk it could have been some other vessel. --Kurt Leyman (talk) 12:46, 11 August 2008 (UTC)


 * On August 9 2008 Tbilisi was reported to have been hit by gunfire and sunk by Russian fleet's units off the Abkhazian coast when allegedly entered a Russia imposed 'security zone' along with four other vessels. Russian Navy spokesman Igor Dygalo confirms sinking of a Georgian boat, Lenta.Ru, August 10, 2008''
 * I see refelence page, but there is no reference to "Tbilisi". There is only foto of this vessel and it is not enough to mean, that this vessel sunk. Possibly the author of this page don't have any other foto of Georgian missile boat. See also this page. It is doubtful whether "Tbilisi" sunk or not.--122.18.175.93 (talk) 14:55, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

More Georgian craft sunk 2008-AUG-13?

Dioskuria IS sunk, together with most of the Georgian navy. See the video at http://censor.net.ua/go/offer/ResourceID/92815.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.77.5.188 (talk) 06:53, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

After the war / current status
The "After the war" section is sourced only to militaryphotos.net forum. This is not a reliable source. However, the current constitution of the navy is very important info, especially in the light of Georgian sea blockade of Abkhazia, and the threats of naval conflict. Someone please find a reliable source for this. Offliner (talk) 16:25, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

No worries. As of early 2009 there is no Georgian Navy. What remained after August 2008 has been merged with the Georgian Coast Guard.Федоров (talk) 07:02, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Renaming
The article was renamed without consultation, which is against the spirit and the policies of Wikipedia. Another option would be to have separate articles for the former Navy of Georgia and for the Coast Guard of Georgia. However, if everybody agrees with renaming, the content must be modified to reflect the new name. SV1XV (talk) 04:56, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Number of Island-class ships
The current number in the list - 4 - is definitely a mistake. If you watch the links, you will see, that "additional ships, donated in 2018" - in reality are the same Ochamchire and Dioskuria, which are mentioned as donated in 2016. As I understand, the decision was made in 2016, but ships came to Georgia in 2018. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.244.159.124 (talk) 08:01, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
