Media: British aircraft "demonstrated presence" over Russian ships in the English Channel

The aircraft of the British Air Force made a low-level flight over a group of Russian warships during the passage of the English Channel, reports RIA News post The Times.

“Two Tornado bomber fighters were sent to demonstrate presence over Russian flotilla“- the newspaper writes.

In addition, British aircraft carried out "high-precision imaging of the passage of Russian ships in the waters of the English Channel." As the newspaper notes, citing the British Defense Ministry, the photographs “will allow us to see what is on the ships” and also “determine their draft”.

Recall, a group of Russian ships led by the aircraft-carrying cruiser Admiral Kuznetsov, October 15, began a campaign in the areas of the North-East Atlantic and the Mediterranean Sea. The passage of ships through the English Channel caused a real stir in the British press - reports about their progress were published almost every hour.

And the black smoke from the chimney, is it a smokescreen to interfere with aerial photography? ))) It's strange that the "green" or some other rainbow ones were not connected to express their "concern")))

Yes, they troll their own population, if every hour you remind "Russians are coming", then you can raise military spending to the joy of the military-industrial complex and forget about your own falling living standards ... and then show with your finger that Russia is to blame.

"Two Tornado fighter-bombers were sent to demonstrate their presence over the Russian flotilla."

The newspaper’s correspondent also took a selfie with one of them.

If I'm not mistaken, the photo (selfie) shows a "tornado hunter" who captured himself against the background of a tornado, not an explosion. And in the case of a tornado, you have to close your eyes and shout into the microphone so that the words can be heard.

Well do not tell! Not every day our AUG passes off the coast of the UK.

the photographs “will allow us to consider what is on the ships”, as well as “determine their draft”

1. They saw and confirmed only the on-duty couple Su-33 on Kuznetsov's deck.
2. Draft is maximum. After all, the BS are loaded in full, to the eyeballs.
But in detail they took pictures of RTV, because each new antenna, even whip, is the new combat capabilities of the ship.
At one time, for the sake of a mockery of ours, a couple of spherical caps were hooked on a superstrike ... There was a lot of excitement! Their scout boat, hung with photographers with "telephoto cameras for a kilometer," just did not climb onto the flight deck. And so, even under the spun, he managed to slip through. We thought that we had accidentally moved ... And the helicopter was hanging with video equipment - you could reach it with your hand.
Now they are modestly, about 300 meters away. And then "on the fly". Somehow not even serious, even ... one might say - offensive.

[Stabilization]

Sailing across the English Channel, the Russian fleet staged a very frank demonstration of force, according to Sky News correspondent David Bowden. According to him, the aging Soviet-era ship Alexander Kuznetsov, which was refitted last year, is the only Russian aircraft carrier that makes an impression, given that the United Kingdom has no armaments at the moment

[sir_obs]

The power plant does not have enough power to reach the design speed. At a speed of 18 knots and more, the unit operates in an overload mode, the power boost occurs due to an increase in the pressure of the fuel supplied to the boilers. At the same time, the "ancient" automatic equipment of the hydraulic type does not always provide a corresponding increase in air supply in a timely manner. Hence - intense smoke, the operation of the boilers at the limit modes

[sir_obs]

Smoke at "Kuzi" is a congenital heart defect. Even "pre-conception", if I may say so. The design of the power plant almost unchanged he got from the "Kiev", despite the fact that the displacement increased by more than one and a half times (the standard was 30 thousand tons, it became 46), and the power was from 182 thousand hp. raised to 200 in total. That is, Kuznetsov's boilers always work normally "overload".

[Strength]

Judging by this armadillo of the beginning of the 20th century, here the Britons needed to send airplanes, there would be a good plot for Hollywood. Maybe a historical film would have been shot.

[smith7]

The excitement was probably caused by the fact that, in general, the British were convinced with their own eyes for the first time in 25 years that the Russians at least know how to walk on the sea. At the same time, once again intimidate the townsfolk and justify the "anti-Russian" budget. Let them rejoice that this time they passed by.

[Orionvit]

Actually, it is not the first time that "Admiral Kuznetsov" has plowed the waters of the English Channel, it is just that now the status of Russia is at a slightly different level, therefore there is so much attention. And the international situation, thanks to the efforts of Western "partners", has been pushed to the limit.

1 landing ship (Sir Galahad (English))
1 landing boat (Foxtrot 4) [15]
24 different helicopters
10 Sea Harrier and Harrier GR.3 aircraft [16]
In addition, 3 destroyers, 2 frigates, 1 landing ship received “serious damage”.
But the enemy, in addition to the subsonic Exoset with a missile range, did not have anything else There is such a notion of Pyrrhic victory, but in fact it was she ...
And the cost of the destroyer has become equal to the cost of anti-ship missiles, and it’s weakly aaabenka, beating near, with a slow speed, unlike our line of long-range and supersonic aircraft carrier killers

You may be right, but there are doubts. The ship hardly moves. Here is a photo in which the ship is moving at a decent speed, it can be seen from the cut wave from the stem, but there is no smoke either, the "exhaust" is almost transparent, and in the photo in the article there is practically no such wave.

And here is another photo of the simply standing "Admiral", i.e. it does not follow any course, and smoke is like a smoke screen. But in practice this curtain does not save from aerial photography. Will he smoke like that for several thousand miles? Most likely there is some kind of malfunction on the ship, the ship is standing still.

There is such a signal - "I am following my course". Moremans know

And here is not the “Admiral Kuznetsov”, but the USS Freedom LCS – 1, a native of the United States, breeding couples in San Diego Bay.

Black smoke at the start of diesel or turbine engines often causes not weak buhurt in the Western press. “Well, how are we going to show our star-striped (or whatever) flag to the Swedes?” To which the admirals honestly declare: "Be calm, we’ll go to Stockholm in full steam, without smoke!" But, as they say, anything happens.
But when driving in the open sea and at full speed - black (blue, white) smoke is, unfortunately, a sign that the ship's propulsion system suffers from one of the following sores: it eats and fumes oil, evaporates completely inappropriate water or he "drinks", no matter how himself, excess fuel, throwing soot into the sky.
In this case, often this option of the appearance of black smoke is precisely due to the fact that the admirals are squeezing out of the car at full speed, giving the engines in fact an enriched mixture and causing the appearance of that same black smoke from the ship’s pipe.

On Kuz are ordinary steam fuel oil boilers. In addition, characterized by low performance. Hence the smoke. Seen fuel equipment is buggy.

Fuel oil is the lowest fraction of oil distillation, then asphalt, as the lower fraction contains the maximum amount of non-combustible substances, which cause soot formation, etc. Also, modern omnivorous engines can simply refuel with crude oil, taking into account fuel consumption, the price matters. And the newly-arrived experts on steam boilers and diesel engine systems that emerged from the cesspool became more active when Kuzya found himself 200 km from the Buckenham Palace

[Flatter]

Incomplete combustion leads to the fact that fuel particles are deposited on the inner surface of the boilers and burned on it, and not in the air, which changes the conditions of heat transfer, reduces the service life. Therefore, they try to avoid such conditions. When burning fuel oil, sulfur dioxide is emitted, forming sulfuric acid, and even with such soot ... Why is it needed.

You are right about weakness, but you see it not at all there. Our weakness is that:
-when Russia decided to defend its interests at a remote point on the planet, it turned out that it did not have much strength and, most importantly, financial means, including financial. And our management understands this very well.
- For a long time it was possible to rely on Soviet reserves and use them to the fullest, now it is clearly clear that this time is over. And again, our leadership saw this, as can be seen from the desperate efforts to design and launch new or modernized weapons.
We urgently need to build up a military grouping near Syria, especially its air component. We need an aircraft carrier there, not just yesterday, but the day before yesterday. And since we can count them with the help of one finger of any hand, there is only one way out, let's "Kuzya" "not barn, but calf".

Easy prey ”- this is the approximate tone and level of comments of“ experts ”. They seem to be trying to hide their fear, inspired by "Admiral Kuznetsov," behind the attacks on the smoke screens. He, like most Soviet warships, looks aggressive, impressive and at times more dangerous than American.
Foreign users make fun of the strong puffs of smoke that the cruiser emits into the air. The federal news agency talked with an expert about why such a reaction is philistine and why this behavior of Kuznetsov is the norm.

As an option, it is assumed that some of the planes and helicopters from the Khmeimim airbase will fly to the T4 airbase, where the runway is being repaired and expanded. And the planes from Kuznetsov will work on Latakia and Aleppo. Again, training of our sea flyers in combat conditions is also needed.
Russian Aerospace Forces are preparing an airfield near Palmyra for massive attacks on ISIS
The Russian Aerospace Forces have already built a new runway at the T-4 airbase in the eastern part of the Homs province to increase the number of sorties against ISIS terrorists.

No, that won't work. In addition to the aircraft themselves and, accordingly, the pilots, it will be necessary to transfer the technical staff for servicing the aircraft various technical vehicles ammunition carriers firemen, again the base must be guarded, this will require soldiers to provide air defense bases, and so on .. Do not forget, by the way, the transportation of ammunition for this aircraft and food supplies to the convoys with which along the way can be fired by terrorists means they also need protection from our soldiers and other problems.
All this will be ready on the aircraft carrier; it will only need to deliver ammunition for supplying fuel and other means that can be delivered to it by armament vehicles, while the personnel, except for the pilots of aircraft or helicopters, will not risk their lives directly on the territory of Syria.
