What does the Syrian Express carry?

Photos of the ship "Kyzyl-60", following to Syria, appeared on the Web. On board are Ural-4320 all-terrain vehicles.

The photos were posted on Twitter by a Turkish blogger who tracks ships through the Bosphorus Strait.

“Military experts say that cars are painted in sand color. Previously, this was hardly noticed; the equipment was in the green camouflage that was familiar to us. Cars "Ural - 4320" are currently among the most popular in Syria. They are used to deliver personnel, ammunition, military equipment ", - writes Messenger of Mordovia.

Machines are also used as artillery tractors. They are equipped with a variety of weapons, including anti-aircraft guns of various calibers, including 100-mm.

Caravans are coming, and the dogs are barking! We will give them a “chemical attack” to hell! Now they wish ..

One thing pleases, finally not the BDK. Enough to ruin their resource, useful for business. There are barges.

[seti]

But the ship itself is extremely shabby. I note that we carry out long-term transportation of a wide variety of goods. Why, why not designed and used for its intended purpose, a vessel like a container ship or a marine self-propelled barge with a large capacity and carrying capacity. Approximately 20-30 000 tons. On it at a time you can bring a huge amount of the necessary cargo and not chase these dwarfs performing unusual work.
The BDK were echoed, the Turkish bulk carriers too. And the conclusion is obvious. Auxiliary ships for roughing are needed. There is a Bay plant in Kerch - this is his profile.

Help to get started

A civilian dry cargo ship of Chinese construction, designed to carry general cargo. The vessel is equipped with two lockable sliding steel covers with dimensions of 19,31x12,60 m and 25,95x12,60 m with a height of 8,14 m. The dry cargo ship can also be used for container shipping - the vessel's capacity is 327 containers (20 feet ). The dry cargo ship "Tong Xing" was built at the Jiangsu Yangzijiang Shipyard (serial number 3271), Jianying, China, in 1996. Renaming of the vessel: "Tong Xing" until January 2004, "F. Camellia" until October 2008, "Messenger K" until December 2010, "Avatar" until February 2014, then "Smyrna". The vessel "Smyrna" under the flag of Vanuatu (IMO: 9149952, MMSI: 577212000) with home port - Vila port, owner - Troy Shipping & Tourism, Istanbul, Turkey, was purchased by the Russian side from the owner in 2015. Joined the Black Sea Fleet in early autumn 2015, with the renaming of "Kyzyl-60", home port - Sevastopol.

Those. not so old, a proven workhorse. Judging by the time of purchase, it was specially purchased for the Syrian express, its condition should not be judged by the unpainted case, it was bought not for girls with low responsibility, but for business. The time will come to paint. Well, they didn’t give us the nonsense Mistrals to pick up, which the Express lacks so much and which many have blamed for, so we had to urgently overlap what is. There’s nothing to get to. Let people work at last and take Syria completely. There will be production on the shelf, there is oil, as in Kuwait, we will buy new bulk carriers and we’ll leave in socks from Versachi

So maybe it's time to get it back on track? There are big docks, they haven’t disappeared anywhere, and the equipment can be ordered at our special enterprises.
It is high time to establish the production of civilian products for shipping. And as for the political component. It’s time to lay down on someone else’s opinion.

[Seaflame]

And in the Crimea they will give to build? Large cargo ships are full of foreign components. Will they be delivered to the Crimea or will there be stories like with Siemens turbines again? I would like the "Bay" to be reborn ...

Lack of paint affects driving performance.

[seti]

It's not about painting. And in the amount of tonnage transported. We need to transport it a lot and after Syria there will probably be Libya or other goals / objectives. So special vessels of high performance are needed. Yes, and their purely civilian goods need to be transported.
These are jobs and new orders.

[stalkerwalker]

Then why was it worth remembering?

[seti]

Return to my original text. I wrote primarily for the tonnage being transported. A battered case is a statement of fact.
It is clear that it is important that the ship carries the necessary cargo and not how and how it is delivered. But you can make one or two walks and not 20 in a shorter time. And the main thing is to transfer all the overall cargo in one go at once and not in parts. With uv.

It is difficult to find a free tonnage capable of carrying heavy equipment, both in the holds and on the deck and the covers of the holds.
Ideally, these are roller skaters. But they are very expensive.
The second option is station wagons / container trucks. In this case, an unkilled steamer is required. And it is also desirable to have heavy cranes for unloading on an unequipped shore. Etc. etc.
Remember what MO purchased through intermediaries at the end of 2015? Killed Turkish bulk carriers - we then discussed this topic at VO.

[jjj]

Friends, please note that only sides above the waterline are shabby. And look at the deck of the superstructure very well covered with a primer. So, the boatswain team does not chew snot. And its sides are low, it is not convenient to paint in the gazebos on the go. In the parking lots, it turns out, no, but the crew does not mean idly staggering

It is possible to rivet catamaran-type self-propelled sea barges or the same rollers. All come to this one. I would like to see the Gulf return a big name and delight with quality products. Our Crimea. And since ours is then necessary to invest a lot of money in his factories, jobs are needed there, otherwise the people doing nothing is bad.

Please calm down! Everyone who needs to go there, don’t be nervous ... here are the links, there are ports of call, where you can see that the ships are on the Novoross-Tartus line and there is no need to make noise if not really in the subject ... Good luck!

[Vladimir 5]

In all large armies, such express transportations are carried out by leased container carriers, bulk carriers, and others from civilian companies. There is no need to strain and buy such carrier ships for the Russian Defense Ministry. These are temporary needs. In ten years there will be another hot spot, another type of transport may be needed there, maybe railway or air ... Even for NATO transportations our super-heavy planes of civilian companies (Ruslans) lease ... For a big war, these bulk carriers are unnecessary, because we will do not attack yet. and defend themselves, and overseas suppliers are not visible, and they will not be allowed to walk freely on the seas ......

[stalkerwalker]

Quote: Vladimir 5

In all large armies, such express shipments produce leased container ships, bulk carriers, and others from civilian companies.

This is an emergency method when it is required to transport simultaneously a large amount of cargo and l / s during the period of the military crisis. As an example, we look at the actions of the British army and navy during the conflict with Argentina over the Falkland Islands.
The richer countries have in reserve (on the sludge) canned vehicles bought "on the occasion" and reserved for the same emergency. As an example, I saw in the port of Houston at the pier of the US Navy a former skater of the type "Engineer Ermoshkin" (or its sistership), painted with ball paint and renamed to "Wheat". It was one of the most modern roller skaters in the NMP, built in the mid-80's. In addition to him, there were also vehicles equipped with arrows with a carrying capacity of up to 20-30 t. And it does not matter that they are built by 60-70's. They are always ready to transfer equipment to the desired region. And as part of the US fleet, there are a lot of tank landing ships and other auxiliary fleets.
The auxiliary fleet was with us. I saw in Murmansk several ships under the flag of the Navy of the USSR, originally built as a series of the Pioneer of Moscow type. Everyone saw this type of ship in the video, where an emergency bathyscaphe was launched from it when trying to rescue the crew of the Kursk nuclear submarine. But it was a long time ago. There are no others, but those are far away ...

[Alex08061968]

Yes, these gas turbines with an eye on the war and built, but ... the country fell apart, and they:After the collapse of the Soviet Union, all four Rocker went to Ukraine and were privatized. Not knowing how to dispose of honestly acquired property, their owners sold four huge handsome companies to Global Container Lines and Marianna Shipbuilding Ltd. In 2001-2002, three of them ended up in a scrap yard in India. The remaining "Vladimir Vaslyaev" joined the ranks of the US Navy.
High-speed transportation of supply is an excellent tool for warfare on foreign shores. A few days after receiving the order, “Captain Smirnov” would have lowered his aft ramp to the berth in the port of Tartus, and a hundred or two armored personnel carriers with armor heavily covered with paratroopers would slide down from it under the caressing Mediterranean sun. High-speed roller skaters can be successfully used for the delivery of important cargoes - several C-300 divisions may move instead of armored cars to the shore, for example.

IMHO, a quick and relatively inexpensive solution is to order ships from the Chinese and / or South Koreans. Our shipyards are loaded, but they are really inexpensive and well built. It does not mean refusing to develop its capacities, but if here and now it is a way out, IMHO.

Yes, yes, and some suggested that the Mistrals should carry it at all.

This is not a barge, but a self-propelled cargo ship. And they always carried special cargoes. I know for myself. And BDK is used where it is dangerous for civilian motor ships to appear.

Militants act surprisingly competently in the harsh conditions of urban battle, actively use rag barriers, stairs and sledgehammers to create holes in the walls.
The militants clearly protect people - they use shelters, they do not jump out, as before, in full growth.
This indirectly confirms the small number of them sitting in Yarmouk and its environs, and at the same time, unfortunately for the Syrian army, a good preparation, the process of obtaining which Yarmuk ISIS fighters have repeatedly posted on the Web
