Icebreaker "Ilya Muromets" headed for the Barents Sea

The new generation icebreaker Ilya Muromets, which conducted the stage of state tests in the Baltic, went to the Barents Sea to the place of permanent deployment in the North navy, the official representative of the Baltic Fleet Roman Martov said.

The icebreaker "Ilya Muromets", who left Baltiysk (the main naval base of the fleet), will make an inter-fleet crossing about 2000 nautical miles to the permanent location in the Northern Fleet

- he said, noting that during the stay the crew of the icebreaker replenished stocks of fuel, water and food.

Ships and sea aviation The Baltic Fleet was provided with state tests of the icebreaker. During the tests, the sailors checked the operation of the aviation complex, ship helicopters made more than 100 landings on the deck of the icebreaker in various weather conditions in the dark and daytime. Also tested the towing capabilities of the icebreaker.

The new-generation icebreaker Ilya Muromets was laid on the Admiralty Shipyards 23 on April 2015 of the year, launched in June 2016 of the year. The icebreaker will be used to support the activities of the Arctic grouping of the Russian Navy. The length of the icebreaker is 85 m, the width is 20 m, the draft is 7 m, the speed reaches 15 knots, the ice penetration is 1 m. The crew of the icebreaker consists of a 32 man, reports TASS

That would be all nothing but he does not pull in appearance at the epic hero ....

Handsome Ilyusha! Seven feet under the keel. Do you need a view or an essence? But the essence is that we with such Ilyusha unprepossessing are the first in the Arctic and this is forever!

And remember, everyone probably read how our pioneers of the Arctic walked on wooden ships, discovered lands and straits, crushed them in the ice, wintered there, but walked. And now they go and will go because our Arctic is ours and there is nothing to do there different stripes and "Ilya Muromets" will guard our Arctic.
PySy: Emotionally, of course, but it can and is worth it, because it is a positive event.

what will he protect her with? plain appearance? at least put a gun!

The captain has a gun in the safe.

[Svarog51]

Roma Well, what are you still bloodthirsty. Well, why does he need a gun? Scare polar bears? And just in case of fire, Katran is based on it. You, as an aviation specialist, should know what kind of apparatus it is.

[novel66]

I'm not bloodthirsty (maybe a little) I'm fair. since it’s military - be armed, the Katran is not bad, but the gun should be, as I mentioned earlier, at least for salutes

[Svarog51]

Well, if it is necessary, then it is necessary. Or maybe we use a rocket for salute? Well, the one in the hold?

[novel66]

it’s not necessary, otherwise the salute

[Svarog51]

Oh yes! Not for that our Arctic coast was cleaned, so that all sorts of crap there. Look, maybe they should, well, so that they did not have to salute anymore. Consumption - one rocket and no curious personalities.

[novel66]

and am I bloodthirsty? and then, okay, what a Norwegian - figs with him (well, I don’t like them), and after all there are large countries,

[Svarog51]

Well, I'm inadvertently But it is necessary to drown so that they do not have time to croak. And there is no body, no business. The Arctic - harsh conditions.

[cannabis]

If you type in the search engine "Russian seven", then there will be pictures with atomic icebreakers that can easily reach the North Pole with a knock. This is beauty and power!

The icebreaker of project 21180 Ilya Muromets will be the only representative of this project ...

On June 10, 2016, it was announced that the Ilya Muromets icebreaker will be the only ship built for this project, and efforts will be directed towards the construction of ships of projects 23550 and 03183.

But, there is hope that the series will continue under the project 21180M ...

In April 2017, information appeared that the series could be continued with the construction of two icebreakers of the modernized, cheapened project 21180M, with less draft (river-sea), a length of about 75 m and a displacement of about 4 thousand tons

Universal patrol ships of the Arctic zone of the ice class of project 23550 - A project of fundamentally new ships, combining the qualities of a tugboat, an icebreaker and a patrol ship. The ships of this project can go in any navigation zones - from tropical to arctic, breaking the ice up to a meter and a half thick.

The arsenal of this project is very interesting ..

1 × 100-mm universal gun A-190
The missile complex "Club-K" (2 × 4 missiles of the type 3M54, 3M14 or others)

[Going]

There is such, but judged not by sight, but by power and deeds.

[Vadim237]

It is more like a tugboat - an overgrowth is similar, but not like an icebreaker - it’s good for rivers.

[faiver]

these are the same associations ...

This tug is capable of breaking ice for a minute ...

[Vadim237]

Well, just on the Yenisei, Lena and Ob in the winter meter ice will be.

[Veteran]

At the mouth of the Yenisei in winter, the ice thickness reaches 2,5 meters. And meter-long ice in the Arctic is one-year-old weak ice.

Global warming is coming. Soon, ice can be cracked there on foot.

[Veteran]

Global warming, say ... on foot ... Listened to fairy tales. The long-term ice of the Arctic Ocean reaches a thickness of 4 m. Therefore, only atomic icebreakers are now under construction as many as 3 units, with the ability to go through even such ice, and a new super-powerful Leader is being planned, which they also plan to build 3 hulls. They will form the basis of the Russian icebreaking fleet by 2031. Try, replace them with an ice pick.

[Svarog51]

Yuri Alekseevich, I welcome you Yes, do not pay attention, a colleague just joked about warming. With our northern maritime borders, icebreakers need a lot of all classes. There is work for them all year round.

[Veteran]

Greetings, Seryozha! Received. It was just that somehow too often they began to neglect the ice cover of the Arctic Ocean, in particular, its thickness, suggesting that such icebreakers as I. Muromets could easily disperse all the ice in the Arctic. This icebreaker is for port support of ships and crossings on weak annual ice.

[Svarog51]

I guessed, Yuri Alekseevich. Are icebreakers sort of “ice classes” divided?

[Veteran]

Yes, of course. Icebreakers proper are classified according to 4 categories: Icebreaker (ib) 6, 7, 8, 9, which are distinguished by their work and ice operations, continuous movement in ice and power on shafts. I. Muromets belongs to the ib6 category, which is characterized by ice operations in port and port water areas and in freezing non-arctic seas with ice thicknesses up to 1,5 m, and continuous movement in a continuous ice field up to 1 m thick. These "Arctic" icebreakers begin from class ib 7. There is also the concept of an ice class vessel, 9 categories (classes), but these are not icebreakers.
Ice is also classified by thickness: perennial> 3 m, 2-year> 2 m, thick 1-year 0,7 - 1,2 m, thin 1-year <0,7 m.

[Svarog51]

Yeah, now more or less clear. I was still in school, read about the Litke icebreaker, that it was impossible to send him to the Northern Sea Route at that time. But after years of age, I vaguely remember that story.

[Veteran]

The amazing fate of this icebreaker, or rather, an icebreaker, as it was classified by 100 years ago. He cracked the ice with a narrow stem, then expanded the passage with his nose. But he was very lucky, although luck, as a rule, is the skill and experience of the captain. He was the first to go through the Northern Sea Route through the way in one navigation, in 1934, i.e. it can be considered a pioneer of the NSR. Happily escaped defeat from German aircraft and submarines during the war years. But even in 1917, he sank in the North, stumbling on a rock, but he was raised.

[Svarog51]

If I had a detailed article on VO, it would cause a lively interest in the history of the ship.

[Veteran]

Seryozha, I fulfill your wish. I sent the article "Icebreaker" Litke "- the history of the ship and ship" to the editor.

[Svarog51]

Yuri Alekseevich, thank you very much. I will look forward to it.

Sanya What about the situation with search and rescue equipment? In the north, well, you can’t do without it.

... Without him everywhere For all, the standard + helicopter set

[Veteran]

Seryozha, he is not a search engine or a lifeguard in the narrow sense. This is a m / f icebreaker - a tugboat - a patrol ship. It can carry out towing operations, extinguish fires, transport cargo, collect spilled oil products. To do this, he has ship and special equipment. The first includes a cargo crane with load capacity of 26 t, a loader crane with load capacity of 2 t, a winch. To the second - a runway for receiving a helicopter, boom dl. 400 m for the collection of petroleum products, m / f production boat of booms, 2 monitored water gun barrel, fire pump. In the hold he can load 500 tons of cargo, and take refrigerated containers onto the deck on an area of ​​380 sq.m. Additionally, 50 can take on board people, for example, rescued from ice floes or from another vessel.

[Svarog51]

Got it, thanks a lot.

[Herculesic]

The main thing is that he arrange the fleet!

[jonht]

For different purposes, different ships ....
This icebreaker seems not to be planned for piloting, but to ensure our interests in the Arctic. Perhaps the provision of navigation in the area of ​​the fleet base and patrol service in difficult ice conditions ....
We will start the service, we will find out everything .....

The new generation icebreaker Ilya Muromets was laid down at the Admiralty Shipyards on April 23, 2015, and launched in June 2016.

in a year... everything would be so ... dreams, dreams ...
