BDK "Peter Morgunov" will be launched in May 2018

The large landing ship (BDK) “Peter Morgunov”, which is being built for the Russian Navy at the Yantar Baltic Shipbuilding Plant, is scheduled to be launched in May 2018, the shipyard’s press secretary Sergei Mikhailov said, TASS reports.

In the second half of May, the BDK "Peter Morgunov" should be launched

- He said, adding that the transfer of the Navy ship will take place, as planned earlier, in 2018 year.

According to Mikhailov, the "paratrooper" finished the year 2017 with the closing of the first technological stage - the end of the ship hull assembly assembly, and in 2018 "large-scale work is expected, including the aggregate replacement of the main engine." The interlocutor explained that, according to experts, "the most complicated operation is carried out in order to eliminate the problem with the control of the ship, which was revealed during the tests of the head BDK project 11711 - BDK" Ivan Gren ".

All this work should be completed by the end of April so that the ship could be launched in the second half of May. "

The large landing ship of the 11711 "Peter Morgunov" project was laid at the Yantar PSZ in Kaliningrad 11 in June 2015 of the year, currently it is on the stocks in the pre-launch position.

The ships of this development project of the Nevsky Design Bureau have a displacement of 5 thousand tons. The ship holds 13 main tanks, 36 armored personnel carriers or infantry fighting vehicles or 300 paratroopers. It is possible to deliver to the destination a reinforced company of marine corps with standard equipment and land them on pontoons brought with them. The armament of the ship consists of six-barreled automatic guns with a caliber of 30 millimeters, two transport and combat helicopters Ka-29 are based in deck hangars.

Well, the results of modernization were not long in coming.
Please correct the error in the header: this is not a large anti-submarine ship.

[Giant thought]

This ship will be built much faster than the lead Ivan Gren, which undoubtedly pleases, it is only a pity that the series of these BDKs is already ending with the next ship.

and rightly so, we do not need such unsuccessful ships at all! for a long time it is time to let out new ... UDC ...

[Berkut24]

for a long time it is time to let out new ... UDC ...

Here the problem is "bifurcation." In the Syrian Express, the main work was not carried out by the BDK, but by the old Turkish dry cargo troughs. Purchased for a penny on the verge of write-off. They did not go for long, but they completed the task. Therefore, obviously, in the future it is necessary to build a truly UDC, but on a par with them, it is also necessary to lay cheaper and simple bulk carriers for the Navy, with the simplest defensive weapons from pirates. In which case, give bulk carriers to the escort unit at the guard level.

The machine consists of units, assembly units and parts. A unit is a complete assembly unit that performs a specific function and has its own characteristics. For example, a gearbox.
In this case, apparently, it makes no sense to change the whole machine, and only parts of it - the units - are being replaced.

In relation to the internal combustion engine, the engine block is the unit - all rotating and oscillating nodes of the crank mechanism and oil supply are combined here. Auxiliary (peripheral) units are a generator, a servo pump, a starter and an ignition system (If for car ICEs).
So the machine itself is a pure unit, so the question is "how to understand:" aggregate replacement of the main engine "?" - very much the place to be.

ett still need to see how they will do it, otherwise it will turn out anti-airborne, like to spread rot

[cormorant]

Well, just a couple more of these to lay ... Do not brake, we consolidate the success ...

[Russia]

Typo. Antisubmarine would also be nice, we are waiting.

Diesel locomotives of the Kolomensky Zavod still cannot provide ship quality engines. The sea ship is still not a diesel locomotive, although diesel locomotives must sometimes back up.

[donavi49]

In general, yes. The crankshaft was broken on Gorshkov - now they understand who is to blame for the naval or factory marriage. But they at least have a perspective in the form of D500. Maybe by the 22-25 year a relatively modern diesel engine will get to the fleet.

But the 56 cylinder high-speed “masterpieces” from the Star do not shine with the resource in 8000 watches. Under Khrushchev - it was still normal (when the engine was done), but today its efficiency, the periods between maintenance / bulkheads - just a stone age.

[Omskgasmyas]

It seems the connecting rod broke on Gorshkov. Although the crankshaft could suffer.

[Lexus]

It’s kind of small and kurguzy, but as they say,

fishless and cancer

Meanwhile, China is already building a full-fledged UDC, according to the type and dimension of Wasp.

[Romario_Argo]

while we still have the plan of updating the IPC (20380, 20385 corvettes), MRK (22800, 21631), Watchdogs (22160), Frigates (11356, 22350), Minesweepers (12700), Scouts (18280), BDK (11711), Guide , Sea and Raid tugs, Tankers ....
and only then, when we spin up, we will proceed to the UDC, destroyers (22350M) and aircraft carriers ...

[Lexus]

corvettes 20380, 20385

Does Poliment Redut work?

22800, 21631

With Chinese diesels?

22350

One is brought, another is being built. It's enough?

12700

Idem.

22350M

This is a frigate. While in the "wet" dreams.

[Romario_Argo]

systematically load our shipyards with orders for a decade, so that you don’t have to issue pans later and give them your salary

This is not so difficult, given the construction and commissioning of Ivan Gren.
However, in 2018 I do not believe in the surrender of Morgunov. Will they let them down in the second half of May, will they complete, form, and populate the crew, conduct mooring trials, land and land fortifications and landfills in 6 months? Even in the absence of serious comments - a fantasy for our shipbuilding.
