"Comet 120M". The first passenger ship from Kalashnikov launched

First in stories the passenger ship launched the Kalashnikov. More specifically, the passenger ship was launched at the Vympel shipbuilding enterprise (Rybinsk). The company is a part of the Kalashnikov concern.

This is a high-speed hydrofoil Comet 120M.

The press service of Rostec cites the statement of the general director of the Rybinsk shipbuilding enterprise:

This is an important project for the company, opening up a new direction of our work - the construction of civilian vessels. The construction of five Komets is planned in the near future, and the Ministry of Industry and Trade has supported us in this. In total, we intend to place on the Black Sea about 20 units. By 2025, the civilian product line in our order portfolio should reach 30 percent.

The first “Comet 120M” will serve passengers on the route Sevastopol-Yalta. It is assumed that the first passengers will be able to use this type of maritime transport as early as next year. Engaged in such transportation will be created by the company “Sea-speed passenger transportation”.

The glorified Valentina Tereshkova, the first female cosmonaut, became the “godmother” of the first 120M comet.

From the message Rostec press service:
The designer of the new vessel is the Central Design Bureau for hydrofoil vessels named after them. R.Ye.Alekseeva "(Nizhny Novgorod). The RT-Chemcomposite holding, which supplies the glazing for Comet 120M, takes part in equipping the ship. "Comet 120M" is designed to carry passengers in the coastal sea zone.

Comet 120M can take on board up to 120 passengers. The maximum travel speed is about 65 km / h. The ship differs from the Soviet version of “Komet” with increased comfort, the presence of a business class cabin and an automatic system for reducing the level of pitching and overload.

In the seventies and 80s, comets were built in Poti in the city of SSR, at the sea plant named after Sergo Ordzhonikidze! We walked along the entire Black Sea coast. It was very convenient. I sat in Sevastopol for several hours by sea and you are in Odessa. What were the peaceful, wonderful times guys ....... Here it is, feudal fragmentation .. The elite divided the country’s party, like a pie into pieces! Sold the people.

Disciplined communists and Komsomol members! Gen. Sec and his associates said it well! We believed them to be parties until a certain period. There was no leader ..Com. the party was unable to raise the people to defend their homeland ... I remember how the news of Sevastopol rejoiced when the GKChP happened. People congratulated each other ... And Moscow went for burgers, glass beads and vodka for barricades ... They had Boris Nikolayevich Yeltsyn ..

But 8-10 Onyxes will easily pull. Distributed launch system of the Kyrgyz Republic. On a group of such Comets, even a radar is not needed. The main thing is to deliver in a short time a dozen missiles on each to the launch point and, on command, launch in the right direction. But the control center and the equation will be occupied by others, up to the UAV. Is anyone there unhappy with the Straits Agreement and the Montreux Treaty?
"Welcome!" Oh, how we will be guests "happy ..."

Get involved with drugs. More than 73 tons of missiles hung on a 30 ton boat And lousy seaworthiness and range for a warship

In childhood, on the "meteor" often Samara-Kazan and vice versa. Famously. I did not like the noise and smell of solariums. Hopefully taken into account, fixed something in the layout.

Why remember them, come to St. Petersburg and ride a comet for how much money is enough. The problem is that tea is not ekranoplan.

[Slovak]

It’s like in the Soviet joke about the “peacefully working tractor”. I remember that there were also not weak weapons

[donavi49]

Only when there is no excitement. If a little storm - then the priest.

[Vlad.by]

Seaworthiness up to 4-5 points. At such a wave at a speed almost without pitching.

[Black_Vatnik]

Soon he will ride on “Kalashnikov”, dress in “Kalashnikov” and there are “Kalashnikov”. And when will they assemble a new machine for the army? The trend however is capitalism.

[groks]

If the Saudis do not want to buy, then maybe never. For capitalism.

[Black_Vatnik]

As far as I know, Arabs do not claim to new AKs, but to “hundreds” under 7.62.

[Settlement Oparyshev]

why do you need a new machine gun for the army? You don’t learn how to shoot on the old one? You don’t learn how to shoot on the new one. To shoot the enemy at the front, you need to fire 200 thousand shots. Resource AK 20 thousand shots. To shoot one, you need burn 10 automatic machines. So is it cheaper to burn new ones, or "old" ones?

[Black_Vatnik]

I may not need to, but is that the point?

You are somewhat mistaken
Abortion is a last resort.

In order to shoot the enemy at the front, 200 thousand shots must be fired.

Are you serious? Or you need to shoot only in this way:
Or maybe this is the amount of burned cartridges in the company? Otherwise, what is the reason for having small arms in battle in general. While you shoot the enemy - he already hangs around you and asks: "Amnnado cartridges?"

[Settlement Oparyshev]

They shoot exactly the same way, otherwise the sniper will blow Bosko. In the shooter, am I not really, but is it the essence? Will you learn how to shoot from the old AK, the new one somehow will not be needed. Another thing to AK is a "smart" sight. This is really needed, unlike the new AK. Do I understand correctly?

[ProkletyiPirat]

Quote: p-k Oparyshev

All right, you need not a new AK, but +100500 modification kits for warehouse AKs in order to provide them with a picatinny rail and new sights. And to buy normal machines in small batches for MTR and special forces.

That's right in the photo, 90% of the fire of the rifleman is suppression or barrage fire or misses, because if you count "the number of spent cartridges \ number of enemies killed = many thousands of rounds."

[verner1967]

maybe he’s right? A co-worker has long been telling, according to the memoirs of his grandfather, this is exactly how they shot at the Second World War from PPSh. I did not believe, and now more than once in a modern photo and in reports I saw.

[Vlad.by]

Relax. If you shoot at a white light because of the parapet, then a million is not enough. However, more than 20 million lives on the fields of the last world left. And even if only a tenth fell on the shooter, which I doubt, then AK is a super weapon. Lord, do not bring you to the line of fire.

[donavi49]

Well, earlier it would be Rybinsk. Now Kalashnikov bought the plant and became Kalashnikov, although the same people produce it as before. Similarly for UAVs from Kalashnikov, they are made by the same Hall.

[rruvim]

Good news. On old comets went (as a passenger), an unforgettable experience. The main thing is that there would be a series, and not two or three pieces.

[Dezinto]

I flew to Poland in such a childhood ... a cool ship.

[210ox]

Well, let's say bluntly, not on this one. On the Comet it’s more likely the previous generation of everything. A similar ship ..

Hmm ... Well, the article states that the new Comet was developed jointly with Alekseev’s Design Bureau ...
But what kind of development is it still carrying out - I don’t know ... But - most importantly - it exists ... So, it’s busy ...

[Just a man]

The right economy is when industry, infrastructure, technology develops with money earned in Russia, and a chelsea club or yacht is not bought for a billion dollars. It's a shame of course that those positive moments in the restoration and development of our country over the past 10 years, this is only a small part of our capabilities and potential. A huge percentage of our wealth is simply stolen, is often trivially robbed and taken abroad.

[cedar]

Great news. The main question: - "What will be the serial production of these wonderful ships?"
I would like to see them on Lake Baikal ...

[Doliva63]

So they said, it seems that 20 pieces are planning, and we’ll see what happens.

[SpaceCom]

Well, if other enterprises of the military-industrial complex will produce such “high-tech civilian products,” I’m only FOR! Just not the pots!

[Tatar 174]

What do you offend pots? Pans are also needed, I’m looking for everything and I can’t find unbreakable and lightweight pots such as nested dolls in a rectangular shape with lids.

with all due respect to the pots, it is not at the rank of serious enterprises in the military-industrial complex to produce those same pots !!

[Dedall]

And I have several pots of the Upper Salda Combine. They say that they no longer release. What a pity, the quality is amazing! But if you want Chinese nasty things, then please.

[In100gram]

Quote: SpaceCom

Just not the pots!

Probably not just pots. Pans are also needed, but you cannot load all the power with them. Yes, and to use the potential of a high-tech enterprise to produce only pots, it will be greasy. Partial conversion requires planning, such as the State Planning Commission. But it is not yet visible on the horizon. All talk about the "hand of the market." There is no such hand, it doesn’t happen, they passed in the nineties.

[verner1967]

Did we have a market in the 90s? There was a bazaar, but there was no market.

[Karayakupovo]

At one time, a hydrofoil vessel near Kostroma overtook me near Kostroma in 85-87, which before that had overtaken Voskhod (about 60 microns per hour) at a speed of 90 km / hour. Russia is returning its benefits!

[Vita vko]

Handsomely. But it’s time to already do ekranoplans began to do for passenger traffic.

[san4es]

... Judging by the architecture, the past project of the Rocket resembles more

At "Comet", "Meteor", "Colchis" and "Sunrise" felling is closer to the nose

[Petrol cutter]

Well so it is necessary to see, that ahead however. In the cabin of "Sunrise" I sat. It was a deal.

[padded jacket]

Very nice before hydrofoil ships, we “ran” along all major rivers quickly conveniently, however, very noisy in the cabin.

[Eugene Besfamilny]

Something I do not remember the loud noise in the cabin. Although I’ve repeatedly visited both the "Rocket" and the "Meteors". That shook pretty on a relatively high wave - yes.

[padded jacket]

Quote: Eugene Besfamilny

Now I don’t remember on the “Rocket” or “Meteor” sailed from St. Petersburg to Peterhof in the aft cabin, the noise is very strong when it was comfortable in the bow cabin.

[Radikal]

The first "Comet 120M" will serve passengers on the route Sevastopol-Yalta

In Soviet times, the "Comet" from Yalta and went to Yevpatoria.

[Filxnumx]

I watched on TV, great news. In Crimea, it would still raise the production of "Rocket" as in the Soviet years. And what is the new organization: Kalashnikov Concert? A trifle, a typo, but it catches your eye.

[Petrol cutter]

"Rocket" is a very ancient project. He was engaged in our factory FPO "Sea". Since then, a lot of water has flowed, the last more or less fresh steamer of this class was the “Voskhod 2M”. M-marine option. I do not see galactic-scale problems to restore its production. Here the problem is to have a customer. And so, the first workshop stamped them in batches.

[Petrol cutter]

"The company is part of the Kalashnikov concert."
We still have not a concert, but there was talk of a transfer of the building. Yes, I heard about it at a large gathering in the conference room of our factory. Speaker Director T. Zachinyaev! (The surname itself says a lot). It is likely that according to his agreements, our plant will build a couple. Or maybe he won’t. In any case, these are very distant prospects. Since the production capacities (main and reconstructed) are occupied by defense orders-MRK 22800, all the main workers went to Pella, and who will build the Comet 2.0 is a big question.

[Awaz]

Comets used to sell abroad. In Greece, they definitely ran and somewhere in Oceania, like Indonesia also had a small fleet of such units. Until now, no one has really learned how to make cruise ships. It is necessary to develop this and there will be a market.

[Vlad.by]

Look at Peterhof on the pier what is this undeveloped park. Although, it's time to build a shift. It's right!

[weksha50]

It's nice to read positive news at night ... Suppose, it seems, there is nothing special - think, 5 new Comets were planned to be released ...
And how do you think, after what devastation of the end of the 80s and 90s, the beginning of the zero years, these new Comets appeared - so joyfully to the heart ...
To think over a mechanism for these Comets to be bought by Russian operators ... And it’s not only on the Black Sea that they can be used ... And the Baltic, and the Caspian, and ... even Lake Baikal ... Already now there seems to be enough tourists ...
It turns out - Kalash - he is on the water - Kalash ... So that the Comet would be as reliable, reliable and convenient to operate ...

Sanya, welcome According to Valdai, it’s clear that the felling is in the bow, while the comet’s is closer to the stern. What about the course review? And the second point is interesting - how about maneuverability at high speeds?

... Hello Seryog! ..
Plus / minus 10 - 15 meters, the review does not significantly change. Unless of course you have to squeeze through a minefield or fishermen on rubber and other boats
... And handling is like a car: the higher the speed - the less handling. But such vessels (on wings) quickly stop thanks to a reverse gear

[Svarog51]

Thank you, Sanya That's exactly what I wanted to know about.

Unless of course you have to squeeze through a minefield or fishermen on rubber and other boats

[TsUS-Air Force]

Hooray!!! God will give the fleet to be reborn! I come from that childhood when on the republican routes in the 90s they still walked along the Volga in comets and meteors

[Lycan]

Looks great, hh!
There are proposals for printers to prepare blanks and ink for travel.
If, with the participation of these high-speed vessels, a passenger traffic flow of 10 hours per day is organized, I think that 2-3 years will not end the passengers. And during this time, the costs will be beaten off twice.

[Achtaba1970]

From Akhtubinsk to Volgograd and back (150 and 150 km) on the Meteor. Noisy and stank in the aft cabin, but in front it was very quiet and cool in the summer.

[Normal ok]

Ah, once “Comets”, “Missiles”, “Colchids” ran around the Black Sea according to a schedule, like trams. I myself did not use it once. In the 90's, they sold everything to Greece, Turkey and much more.

I'm damn glad that this high-speed mode of transport is returning to our lives! Yes, and the product is beautiful, it's a pleasure to see! Hooray !!!
