US offers Ukraine to strengthen the frigates Oliver Hazard Perry

127
The US military attache in Ukraine handed over a letter, which was reportedly signed by representatives of the US Navy Command. The letter is addressed to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Stepan Poltorak, and in this letter, according to the press of Ukraine, contains a proposal to "increase the defense capability of the Ukrainian naval forces in the Black and Azov Seas".

US offers Ukraine to strengthen the frigates Oliver Hazard Perry




The materials of the Ukrainian media say that in Washington they allegedly offer Kiev, in the framework of military-technical assistance from the United States, to acquire American warships. We are talking about frigates type Oliver hazard perry... This type of frigate was built in the United States between 1975 and 2004. At the same time, the States were actively exporting these warships. Today they consist of fleets such countries of the world (in addition to the USA itself) as Egypt, Turkey, Poland, Taiwan, Spain, etc.

At the same time, the United States is going to "transfer" to Ukraine the most outdated modifications of these frigates, which have not undergone modernization.

The ships have missile weapons - Harpoon missiles, mine-torpedo weapons - Mark 32 ASW. The crew of the frigate - 219 people.

The offer itself is clearly related to the sale. Apparently, the United States made the appropriate conclusions from how Poroshenko cheerfully informed his compatriots about the acquisition of decommissioned coast guard boats (“Island” class). Now, apparently, they decided that on floating trash and on Poroshenko’s desire for self-praise you can earn more.

    I can't say anything about the American frigates, but their transfer will hit Ukraine's pocket hard, where they cannot repair their Saiga Dachny due to lack of funds. Firstly, trained crews are needed, and no one will retrain for free. Service and maintenance of weapons in order, and foreign "will cost a pretty penny," and Ukraine does not have its own weapons to equip frigates and is unlikely to appear in the near future. I see only one way out - to accept frigates from the United States, to trumpet the whole world about it that the Naval Forces of Ukraine is now a world ocean power, to show them to the people and put them somewhere against the wall, so as not to spend a lot.

          You know, at the beginning of the First World War, the Germans had such a cruiser "Emden". Lightweight and completely harmless against the background of any dreadnoughts. However, he managed to spite the British in the Indian Ocean. He drowned a huge mass of ships. True civilians and even often letting passengers and crews escape. But still.
          It is unlikely that in Banderland there is a captain who can match the captain of the "Emden" in adherence to the laws of war at sea.

      I can’t say anything about the American frigates,

      In 2004, during a visit to the Republic of Poland over a glass of tea, a Polish capraz told me about them. His assessment: expensive and useless, because the Yankees sold frigates with one ammo. And how to study without practical application - that is, a great secret. We decided to buy it "cheaply" from benefactors. So the cowboys broke such a price that the "panstvo" eyes looked out of their sockets. And he also complained that O. Perry does not hold the Baltic wave well. Well, this "washing board" is not indifferent to all our BODs, without sending greetings from the depths of their hearts ...

        Perhaps these ships are dangerous in the Black and Azov seas. The motive for the Americans is clear. Their rights to stay in the Black Sea are limited. The United States is clearly preparing for war. These troughs will distract us. Hope pleases: they will float on their own, or again self-pickup, whose crew will be, whether Ukraine will at least handle their maintenance. In any case, the United States, though rusty troughs, is pumping up the Wehrmacht for a reason. I would like to believe that for the sake of "fuck" my henchman

      This is a super successful mass frigate - for a specific purpose. Pull convoys from the USA to Europe = through wolf packs of Soviet submarines and single missile ships / planes.

      It carries 2 turntables with hangars and a large supply of fuel and lubricants. For comparison, this is the level of the Soviet BOD.

      At 70, he had the best air defense system. More advanced and long-range than Admiral Zozulya = on the same cruisers = only the USSR could only 4 the cruiser with Wave-M.

      And as shown by real action - the frigate is very tenacious. 2 Exocet caught and norms, after 9 months went to a new BS.

        2. Not everyone has hangars.
        Without an air defense system, this trough can sink even a single RTO in one gulp, not to mention our DBK. Aviation will be enough to cast it with iron from a height of 4-5 km

          So, I wrote about 70. It was an advanced ship at that time. wink .

          There are hangars at all - even at 7 (head) - I attached a picture. Now only relatively fresh ships that actively use the 2 helicopter have survived.

          SAM was removed on all Americans - because the budget for modernization was not broken. Turks, for example, did not take off, but paid for the modernization.

          Yes. So this is relevant for any ship of the Navy. As if the Sahaidachny his Wasp will be able to do something laughing .

Not a bad thing, the mattress doesn’t have one even though it has a displacement many times larger. Our Buyan and the Duet have both a small EPR and a Caliber with Onyx;) Therefore, Oliver has nothing to catch in battle with him except Onyx on board wink

            11356 has Shtil-1 and AK-630M air defense systems. Again there are Caliber or Onyx.
            With 22350 again did not hit. He is not at the Black Sea Fleet.
            As for aviation and the Sea of ​​Azov. And will Oliver go there with his draft? lol And what or who will prevent aviation from practicing bombing over the Black Sea if the independent Oliver provokes provocations in the region of the Crimean peninsula.

              What calibers and onyxes? Who will guide them? The radar station at Buyan is about the same class as binoculars. When AFAR and Pantsir are installed, there will be something to talk about. And Perry has modern Harpoons (if bought for 404) and a helicopter and radar (relatively good, they were installed on cruisers and aircraft carriers), for detecting brawlers and air defense ... AN / SPG 49 / 55B radar. There is a GUS.

              And what is there to understand, a ship with a displacement of 6500 tons, but no weapons. Mosquitoes shoot in favor of Uranus. Gus old, air defense / missile defense is the same ..
              So Oliver won't look like a whipping boy
              will pass with his draft

                I would not underestimate MR Buyan-M so much. These are one of the most combat-ready ships in the Black Sea Fleet now. The same RTOs Grad Sviyazhsk will not climb out of various exercises and campaigns, including missile firing at AIRFORDS and AIRFORDS. For target designation in the Black Sea Fleet there is a ZG radar. I also wrote about the small EPRED of our ship for a reason. Not the fact that the mattress frigate will detect it until it is too late. And for what air defense station of your vaunted Oliver will work? For the Ukrainian sailor with a slingshot? laughing Oh yes, I completely forgot, there is ONE Phalanx ONE Volcano too! lol Bending with a needle for a ship with a displacement of about 950 tons makes you laugh, and a trough with a displacement of 4200 tons with 1 ZAK is normal.
                About 1155. I thought you understood, it turns out not. These ships are not on the Black Sea Fleet, from the word ABSOLUTELY. Therefore, I see no reason even to dwell on their comparison. But if you still want to talk, as your favorite mattresses say, welcome! laughing
                I don't want to upset you and all Oliver's fans, but Harpoons, like the Standards, have not been on them since the early 2000s. There is nothing to launch them. Therefore, he will be a "whipping boy" for our 1155, and not only for him.
                Draft 3,5 meters belay Where did you get these numbers?
                7,7 meters do not want. Or do you offer to remove the gas and roll it next to Oliver in some sort of bulk carrier along the Sea of ​​Azov? lol

                  For target designation in the Black Sea Fleet there is a ZG radar

                  How long has it been a long time since the ZG radar began to give the control center? Maybe then leave 4-5 conventional "Containers", and remove the radar from all ships ... they (over-the-horizon) control 6000 km each request
                  Yes, on AWACS planes then the need will disappear ... Imagine how many babosikoff will be free! You can build dozens of aircraft carriers.
                  but Garpunov as well as the Standards on them have not been since the early 2000s

                  Both RGM-84 and RIM-66/67 are not worth it for another reason, financial ... Therefore, they began to write off the frigates. Returning the air defense system to its place, even with the old RIM-24, is not a problem, it will certainly be no worse than the Daggers, Shtil'i, Wasp and Harpoons will certainly not yield to Uranians, Termites ..
                  There is a radar station, BIOS is able to work with this, "storage" by the Yankees is not like the Ukrainians, in the open air. They will be de-canned and sold. It might even work.

    I wouldn’t jerk much, especially in the light of Volcker's statements about lifting the embargo on the supply of lethal weapons to Ukraine! Physically, the ships will be transferred on a free basis. What they write like there are no crews? That is, from ignorance. In fact, teams have been in the states for over a year, so by. What about obsolescence? Relatively fresh units of the late 80s and early 90s are offered. Since this class of ships is a universal in terms of air defense and air defense, Ukraine will first of all pay for the modernization of air defense, and the air defense there is already at the level. Considering that these ships were designed to accompany convoys in the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean, they have a sufficient margin of safety for service on the Black Sea for another 10-15 years. And given the fact that in the Black Sea Russia has in fact only Project 11356 ships on the move, then these boats will create a lot of problems. Kreacher Moscow can be safely attributed to a 4-5 year old because major repairs are needed. Make it in Sevastopol will not succeed, On the engines there is a real seam. Nikolayev will not be, Saturn skimps on responsibilities and carries a blizzard for 3 years, like we can, but in fact it’s not even at the exit for tests.
    P.S. The most important thing is that it’s URG frigates! And they are adapted to the standards of mattresses! If on two fingers, then the Americans will have all the objective information from their BIUS system in real time!
