The commander of the Northern Fleet congratulated the crew of TARKR "Peter the Great" on the anniversary of the ship

Today in Severomorsk commander of the North fleet (SF) Vice Admiral Vladimir Korolev, Deputy Governor of the Murmansk Region Igor Saburov and Chairman of the Northwest Bank of Sberbank of Russia Alexander Govorunov congratulated the personnel of the Peter the Great heavy nuclear missile cruiser (TARKR) on the 14th anniversary of the rise of the Naval flag and presented valuable gifts to particularly distinguished crew members of the ship.

“The cruiser“ Peter the Great ”is one of the most powerful ships of the Russian Navy capable of performing tasks at any point of the world’s ocean,” noted Vice Admiral Vladimir Korolev in his speech. “I am very pleased that the most experienced specialists who entered the first crew of the ship and are teaching today a worthy change of professionals are still on the ship.”

From the moment of launching the cruiser passed tens of thousands of nautical miles, repeatedly took part in trips to the far sea zone, crossed the Atlantic and Indian oceans. In 2009, the crew of the ship, fulfilling the task of ensuring the safety of civilian shipping in the Indian Ocean, prevented the seizure of the Ocean Diamond cargo ship.

"Peter the Great" - the fourth in a row heavy nuclear missile cruiser of the third generation of the series 1144 "Orlan". The cruiser was laid in 1986 on the stocks of the Baltic Shipyard, and in 1998 it became part of the Federation Council. Currently, it is the world's largest operating non-returning attack warship. Its main purpose is the destruction of enemy aircraft carrier groups. It is the flagship of the Federation Council.

If only they had done something for the ship by the birthday, then they would have had no price at all.

And what is modernization? This is something for the ship! - Electronics, weapons - in general, the filling is changing to the latest. As far as I know - he has already passed it - or just about - will pass.
A couple of these - that would be yes!
It is currently the world's largest active non-aircraft strike attack ship. Its main purpose is the destruction of enemy carrier groups - Oh, I’d like to live from such words!

plans for rearmament 2020 provide for the introduction of all 4 available ships of this type in the Navy

rearmament plans

It is reported that on all "Orlan" will change the electronics and weapons to more modern. Moreover, their main Granit strike missile systems will be replaced by universal ones capable of firing both long-range cruise missiles with nuclear warheads and anti-submarine missile torpedoes. The basis of ship's air defense will be missile systems created on the basis of the famous S-400. After that, the service life of the ships will be extended to 2030-2040.

Great news!!! "Peter the Great" is a cool cruiser, I would even say: "Best in its class!" A real "aircraft carrier killer". Congratulations to the entire crew on this event! God grant that we only have more such ships and, most importantly, without breakdowns.

[esaul]

Here is just something quieted down with the project of modernization of the rest of our existing "Orlans" into universal missile cruisers (and we, besides this, it seems, have three more units), something calm ... Maybe they changed their minds or canceled this idea ? Who knows - respond.

[altman]

Now design documentation is being prepared for the modernization and repair of these cruisers .. the core has already been unloaded from Nakhimov ..

War Herald writes
Resuscitation of rusty heavy nuclear missile cruisers is a waste of huge money for the sake of empty sovereign vanity. The country decided to allocate 2020 trillion rubles for the rearmament of our rusting Navy until 5. And this is good. As it turned out, the Ministry of Defense decided to master a significant part of this astounding amount simply and with taste - to throw them into the modernization of the three long-standing heavy nuclear missile cruisers (TAKR) of Project 1144 Orlan, turning them into the most powerful missile carriers in the world. And this is bad. Why? Http: //army-news.ru/2011/09/vmf-rossii-kogo-my-pugaem-atomnymi-orlanami/ (this article is more detailed here)
Here's more info from the same wavelet messenger

• First of all, about the plan of the military, which the journalists scouted. Of the four atomic giants laid down at the shipyards in Soviet times, only one is in service today - Peter the Great, serving in the Northern Fleet. Alteration will be to his three huge brothers - the cruisers Admiral Lazarev (formerly Frunze), Admiral Nakhimov (formerly Kirov) and Admiral Ushakov (formerly Kalinin). The last two are awaiting a decision on their fate in Severodvinsk. Admiral Lazarev has been upholding in Strelok Bay in the Pacific since 1999.

• And what will cost the reanimation of the three rusting TAKRs to Russia? I believe that there is no complete idea on this subject even in the Ministry of Defense. If only because in nature does not yet exist, for example, the ship's version of the S-400 anti-aircraft missile system. Yes, and expensive land samples of this system are built by the industry per hour on a teaspoon. In two years, the army received only three divisions.

• However, do not hesitate - the cruisers will have to ditch a significant part of the very 5 trillion that Prime Minister Vladimir Putin recently promised to allocate to the fleet until 2020. After all, not even for modernization - for ordinary repairs, for example, of the cruiser Admiral Lazarev, according to 2008 estimates, about 7 billion rubles were needed! Today, this figure has certainly increased significantly. And modernization is generally a waste of a different order. There were reports that up to about a billion dollars apiece.

• Is it worth going to them? Isn’t it better to throw money into the construction of fundamentally new ships in the ocean zone? For example, frigates of project 22350, which are being built with grief in half at the Severnaya Verf shipyard in St. Petersburg. The first of them - “Admiral Gorshkov” - was launched last year. Four years after the bookmark! His transfer to the fleet, scheduled for 2009, is constantly being postponed. Accordingly, the price is rising.
I myself would really not mind, but reconstructing is always more expensive than building a new one, it’s all dismantling, everything is taken out. to paint everything. to cook, equip, and it’s not a fact that money is not stolen. The opinion of the naval is interesting here.

[Just_patriot]

In. The article is overgrown with pictures.

God forbid that we only add such ships, and most importantly without breakdowns

The modernization of Admiral Lazarev and Admiral Nakhimov has begun.

Move in front of this life!

Here's another lesson for some to criticize Putin as the "enemy" of the People ...
where the government spends money .... Direct participation of the Sberbank of Russia ... This is for all Haim ... a hint ...

Yes there is nothing to learn - there is NO brain! There is only greed, greed and anger. All!
In the USSR, such as those treated, they were sent to fresh air for 10-15 years. For physical work, for nature, so to speak.
They say - they came out - so healthier and you will not find!
Immediately all the nonsense disappeared completely.
It is strange - that here on such articles - they just do not have a single one. Only on custom ones. About which they vkurse beforehand - where to gather and at what time. This is where they mess around. And here - they - have no chance.
Everyone on +!

What can I say, join congratulations

[Igor]

Petya should be modernized using the "Stealth" technology, otherwise it is very big.

[snek]

It will be cheaper and easier to build a new one than to try to make this colossus invisible.

[Tiberium]

Peter the Great is the pride of the Russian fleet! We cannot do without it. Congratulations to the crew on a holiday.! Always peaceful swimming.

Modernization of Admiral Lazarev and Admiral Nakhimov has begun

There was also a nuclear reconnaissance and electronic warfare ship at the Pacific Fleet - "Ural" it seems - "Project 1941" Titan "(NATO classification - Kapusta), the largest surface ship in the USSR and Russia with a nuclear power plant (NPU)" ... In his fate may have changed?

[saturn.mmm]

For Nechai To my deep regret, I would like to inform you about the fate of SSV Ural. In 2010, the Ural nuclear reconnaissance ship was sent for disposal to the Zvezda shipyard in the Far East.

Well, why the only one? Cruisers of project 1144 "Orlan": Admiral Lazarev, Admiral Nakhimov, Kirov, Peter the Great.

[Russian sniper]

Now only "Peter the Great" is active. "Admiral Nakhimov" for modernization. In 2015, they want to transfer it to the Pacific Fleet.

[Bat1stuta]

and I join in the congratulations
ship of course handsome!

It is already built with the use of Stealth technologies, and the fact that it is large will spit once and will not seem a little.

[Per se.]

"Peter the First" sounds powerful, perhaps the rest of the ships in the series would be better renamed "Rurik", "Ivan the Terrible" and "Stalingrad" (or "Joseph Stalin"). I heard that the sailors are superstitious about the name "Admiral Nakhimov", and the series would have come out "in the subject" to "Peter the Great".

[altman]

The names of course are powerful .. but .. there was no ship with the name "Ivan the Terrible" even in tsarist Russia, this says a lot .. I'm afraid that "Stalingrad" will be unacceptable for about the same reason .. But "Rurik" and " Andrew the First-Called "quite normal names for" Boreyev "

[Per se.]

Yes, perhaps, "Andrew the First-Called" head "Kirov" would be very suitable. As for the "Rurik", it is a pity that they did not call the ships by this name for so long, his battle with the Japanese was compared to the feat of the "Varyag".

[balamut_x]

without air cover it’s just a big target, and we don’t have a full-fledged aircraft carrier
