BDK ChF "Caesar Kunikov" lost his turn during the exercise

The large landing ship "Caesar Kunikov" during the exercises in the Black Sea was towed to the base because of the resulting breakdown. On the morning of April 18, while traveling to the area of ​​Theodosia, the BDK lost its speed for technical reasons in the area of ​​Cape Chersonese.

According to preliminary data of the 775 / 2 BDK "Caesar Kunikov" from the 197 brigade of the amphibious assault ships of the Crimean Naval Base, it lost its course due to technical reasons in the area of ​​Cape Chersonese. The rescue tug SB-5 and the fire fighting vessel PZhS-123 were sent to the aid of the BDK. Next, the ship was towed 4 road tugs BSF to the place of the regular parking.

As stated by a military source, the cause of the breakdown was "faults in the steering group." It is reported that the malfunction of the BDK must be repaired within a few days, after which the ship will again return to the performance of combat missions as intended.

The large landing ship Caesar Kunikov is the eleventh in a series of thirteen ships of Project 775/2. It was built at the shipyard of the “Gates of the Midnight named after Bohateryw Westerplati” in Gdansk (Poland). He joined the Navy of the USSR in 1986. Designed for landing amphibious assault on an unequipped coast and the transfer of troops and cargo by sea. Able to transport various types of armored vehicles, including Tanks.

Main characteristics: displacement 4080 t, length 112,5 meter, width 15 meters, draft 3,7 meter. The speed of 18 knots. 6000 navigation range for miles at 12 nodes. Crew 87 people, including 7 officers.

Since 2015, the BDK "Caesar Kunikov" participated in the "Syrian Express", and in 2018, it was part of the permanent compound of the Russian Navy in the Mediterranean Sea.

Have you driven the ship on the Syrian Express? It's a pity, you have to put in for repairs.

[Vovad]

Just like the cruiser "Moskva" after the Syrian campaign, it lost its engine and since January 2016 it has not been sailing, it is impossible to repair it.

[loki565]

Yeah, if she’s standing at the pier all the time, she won’t break. But why is it needed then.

[vladcub]

As far as I know, the situation with "Moscow" is quite serious: those were Motor Sich engines, where is their replacement now?

[Bshkaus]

With "Moscow," as far as I know, the situation is quite serious

There is nowhere more serious, there is an opinion that in Sevastopol, repairs in the required volume will not pull, it is necessary to restore repair shops, and "Moscow" will not reach Severodvinsk because barked undercarriage.

[Lapunevsky]

If Moscow also remains in the joke for many years, then I won’t be surprised that the fate of the Orlanes will befall her - cut.

[maxim947]

another "call" on the need for large-scale modernization of this category of ships, or rather, their complete replacement. Only, unfortunately, there is nothing to change ... we all cannot decide on the project of landing ships, a large landing ship or an UDC, or an expeditionary ship, etc.

[Varreox.]

Yes, at least they should carry out maintenance and PPR as expected, and this would not have happened already.
Only now, by the way, do they even produce spare parts? Not at the expense of cannibalism, however, they were repaired, then they were built in Poland.

[maxim947]

It’s not at the expense of cannibalism that they can be repaired,

This is unfortunately a practice, albeit a small-town, but nonetheless ..
And this is naturally not from a good life, the number one task in such situations is the restoration of BG.

[vladcub]

In fact, "Caesar" and without the "express" was like not the first youth, and age makes ANYONE young. When was it overhauled?
Regarding the "Syrian Express", we are not driving the BDK out of a good life: there are no other ships in the Navy capable of delivering cargo, and the distance is

[Lapunevsky]

Why can't you drive cargo by hiring civilian cargo ships for this? I do not think that it will be much more expensive, taking into account the wear of the large landing craft and the subsequent repair from such "express trains".

[Fan-fan]

That’s what they did, they bought old and rusty pelvis all over the world in order to supply at least a little ours in Syria.
But in this regard, the question is to all those who, several years ago, when the Mistrals were not given to us, stated that we did not really need them, we would do better ourselves. Well, did they appear, showed their mind? Now many of you continue to say the same here. You do not have enough brains to understand that we have a complete shortage of any ships.
Putin, do you hear that - instead of investing money in American bonds, can you order a BDK in South Korea?
We survived with such power, to a situation where people are forced to tell them what to do.

[shark]

The resource is not eternal. Nothing terrible, of course, but such moments probably "grandfather" should foresee and warn

Dmitry, how many times have you taken thoughts straight off the tongue ... We are thinking on the same wavelength!
I wanted to write the same koment ..) I hope to repair it quickly and most importantly qualitatively .. Venezuela is waiting !!!!

morning began on the collective farm ...

[Greg Miller]

It is sad to say this, but we are already catching up with Ukraine in this matter ....

[max702]

Very well! You look at those who finally come upstairs that the question is transport a component of the fleet must be decided! There are opportunities, the same gas carriers and tankers are building and buying without any delay or delay ..
RS: I don’t need a classic BDK, but I need military transport for 20-30 kt of Ro-Ro type .. We already had such ships, if you raise the drawings, then for a year or three it can be mastered ..

[donavi49]

Even wealthy bourgeoisie use civilian projects or even redeem on the secondary and modify

[max702]

Strongly support !!

[bk316]

Strongly support !! good

Similarly, in general, any tools should be used as intended , and then soon we will transport cargo on the SSBN. And yes it is with us not only in the Navy, but such suggestions come to me to hammer in a clove with a microscope in a day.

[loki565]

An interesting option.

[Varreox.]

So after all, not the poorest USSR (anyway more powerful than the Russian Federation) did not just want to use dry cargo vessels as the basis of the Tapirov project.

[Bshkaus]

I agree, but I want to add, you see, it will begin to get to the patriots that objective criticism and voicing of real problems is not an all-out cry of the fifth column, but a sincere attempt to identify the problem and find a way to solve it.

[Paranoid50]

The rescue tug SB-5 and the fire-fighting vessel PZhS-123 were sent to the aid of the BDK. Then the ship was towed by 4 Black Sea Fleet harbor tugs to the place of the regular parking.

Here, at the same time, the tugboat crews also trained how to routinely resolve the emergency situevina. Teachings are so teachings.

[Corsair0304]

Yes. Active operation without proper routine maintenance .. Let's hope that they patched up, repaired and put into operation again.

[loki565]

Active operation, this is for bulk carriers that work for a year. And then I did some flights and baked. It's time to buy ordinary transporters, and not to drive these BDK

[morpogr]

Abnormal situation during the exercise as a new introductory. And as they say, "hard in learning, easy in battle."

[Cananecat]

Did Zumwalt not go near there? Maybe over what infection from him brought? )))

[knn54]

Strange, but in the course of the exercises, they practiced (including) rendering assistance to a ship in distress. It's just that the large landing ship Caesar Kunikov played this role.

[Thunderbolt]

I think it was a big mistake to supply Syria with paratroopers. A way out could always be found. As Gandhi said, if you clearly define the goal, then resources will always be found. But the money was buried in "sports holidays" for the whole world. And now the world is closely monitoring the state of our fleet. Because of one breakdown, it is wrong to draw conclusions, of course. But hammering in nails with a microscope was irrational.

[Nastia makarova]

Why should the world keep an eye on our fleet? Can't you see that everything is very bad

[Varreox.]

He probably meant by the world Ukraine - they’ll probably talk about this breakdown on TV in the evening.

[Nastia makarova]

Yes, he seems to be Russian

[Thunderbolt]

Quote from Varreox.

He probably meant by the world Ukraine

If NATO and China are partners for you. Yes friends, then of course Ukraine, where would you be without it. Comparing our fleet on the Black Sea with the Ukrainian and sleeps peacefully.

[Nastia makarova]

NATO does not overtake

[bobba94]

For reference. The service life of the Arlie Burke-class destroyers is 30 years. The large landing craft "Caesar Kunikov" was commissioned in 1986. It is necessary to build a replacement.

[Samara_63]

Sorry Mistral did not have time to get ...

[Nastia makarova]

And it’s good that it didn’t work out

[Samara_63]

Ogh, you would take a long trip to our BDK, to the subtropics, where there is nothing, where in severe dysentery it’s like a runny nose, in terrible living conditions, where a scratch without an antibiotic does not heal ...
I don’t like people like you, who in comfortable conditions ponder the fix knows what ... the girl you need to sit in the office of the Ministry of Defense

[Nastia makarova]

Do you like on a cruise ship?

in summer in the tweendek like in a sauna, ventilation is barely possible. Recommend

[Archivist Vasya]

Mistral - a project to cut the budget of the Ministry of Defense. We were delivered from them very on time. And do not poison fairy tales about non-healing scratches, unless a person has blood coagulation, but there is nothing for the army to do.

[bobba94]

Mistral did not cut the budget. Mistral is a completely different thing. Let us recall August 2008, remember what noise was made in the West, what threats were addressed to us, how they promised to send a combined NATO fleet to the Black Sea. And suddenly, in the midst of passions, a message appears that one of the leading countries in Europe, a NATO member, is selling combat assault helicopter carriers to Russia, the aggressor country. I remember the shock of the Western media, NATO generals and Western politicians. For the security of the country, these Mistral Zero without a stick, but politically it was a very good move.

[Fan-fan]

Mistral Zero Wandless

Do not disgrace yourself with your level of understanding of the situation in our fleet. We have almost nothing to carry goods to Tartus, and we won’t be able to help our friend Maduro at all.
If we had Mistral, they would help us a lot in supplying any of our bases in foreign seas.

[bobba94]

He is about Thomas, and he is about Yerema. It’s a disaster when the military begins to talk about politics. Starting from the school, they are taught to unquestioningly obey the orders of commanders and not get into politics. Big stars serve, they become big bosses, but everything is the same in the head .... The 1st column is marching, the 2nd column is marching. I’m not offended, I am like that.

[Samara_63]

By the way, we have a strange status with the Marine Corps, we must withdraw them from the coastal forces, this is actually expeditionary forces. The coastal forces in the USSR were different and had no relation to the Marine Corps ...

[Paranoid50]

Pah-you, well-you ... And I think something: familiar snot. That’s all, I’ve lost my mind, Vasily - he is a former blessed "lackey", yeah. And all because it was not for the Marines to stutter - I still said "in that life": do not touch !!!

In my opinion, our fleet comes with a kirdyk. The cruiser "Moskva" stopped for a long time, "Kuzya" was probably stuck forever, and now "Caesar" is in question. We brought the fleet "to the handle".

[rumpeljschtizhen]

I don’t understand, we don’t have transport ships? ..... why are we driving these BDKs (and so on, breathless) there are planned exercises that’s understandable ... but for so many years of operation in Syria ... you really can't buy Rollers civilian flag of the navy hoisted, marines ... and that's it ... chase it to syria

[URAL72]

Quote: vladcub

As far as I know, the situation with "Moscow" is quite serious: those were Motor Sich engines, where is their replacement now?

Complete nonsense. 2 turbines М70, and 4 turbines М90. Nikolaev plant "Zarya". Replacement is already in the series on "Saturn". How successful it is is the question.

[donavi49]

In the series on Saturn only M90FR. In no way to the 1164 - where the turbines of the past generation are used, completely different characteristics, sizes and even all sorts of underwater-output lines = they will not work. Just as they will not fit the BOD 1155. The only current storage medium for turbines is the 22350 frigate.

Yes, and why? If the turbine is not burned, and here it is completely in the melt - then everything is perfectly repaired. When it will be impossible to repair (as on Kerch, for example), then the ship will already fall apart. Especially the Atlantes - in the ideal case 1 a big repair for the Varangian and Moscow and then for cutting. Turbines still have a residual resource most likely.

A completely different point is that after it became impossible to repair turbines in the Dawn, there was a wild turn for turbine repairs. Moreover, some companies simply overwhelm the work - as was the case with the Undaunted when the contractor repaired the 2 turbine of the year and abandoned it (it only made it worse).

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

“How successful is it, the question is,”
Nothing. It will be seen there. The road will be overcome by a walker

[The leader of the Redskins]

It is a pity that the news of this nature is heard more and more often lately. And not only in the Navy, but also in the VKS, the army ... Apparently, something needs to be done, changed.

[Fan-fan]

Managers must be changed, and at the same time the one who appoints them.

[Journalist]

I cannot understand one thing - how did our ships, some of them still of pre-revolutionary construction, go to the Great Patriotic War, delivering goods, people and shells to enemy heads, suffering from bombing and lack of maintenance? And nothing. You read, for example, the history of the same cruiser "Red Crimea" and you wonder how this imperfect and long-suffering boat could endure so much on its "boards" ?! And here, in peacetime, as they say, out of the blue ...

[K-50]

Since 2015, the BDK "Caesar Kunikov" participated in the "Syrian Express", and in 2018, it was part of the permanent compound of the Russian Navy in the Mediterranean Sea.

And in 2008, as part of several RTOs, he participated in a naval battle with missile boats of Georgia as a flagship.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

And what? .. Butt-commander. Stick to the old man and the old man. The ship is at the dock.
The main thing is that he retired to Syria in good faith.

[Rzzz]

In the dock, why?

[DPN]

What was built during the Soviet era is no longer subject to restoration, since you ran into your little rooms on this and you can now find HREN spare parts.

[tolmachiev51]

Fleet specialists problem !!! Iron breaks - as prepared, it works. For 10 years, working on fishing vessels. Voyages of 6 months, the engine "died" only once, and this is provided that they work at full load 70% of the time.

[Awaz]

all equipment was killed in the post-Soviet era, when it was not monitored and fully exploited. Civilian ship owners are probably taught by bitter experience and do not save on fuel, oil or spare parts. Unfortunately, the devil knows what happened in the navy during the "timelessness". And it's not much better now. They save on everything they can and even cannot. And the technique is already ushatana ..

[Examenatornick]

and well you are not laughing? when a ship stalls in another country, it's just a feast of buffoons and here ... oh yes, that's a completely different case ... self-complacent excuses begin "Syrian Express .... ship age, etc. .... classic thinking urapatriotnoe if others, then joy if we have, then the circumstances are). We, as it were, wow, what !!! but the circumstances have developed like this. Healthy men and suffer as "women"

[Lapunevsky]

A little tough, but true)

[Hell_march]

drove the ship

[Lapunevsky]

It is high time to enter into contracts with civilian carriers by hiring civilian freighters to transport military cargo. And thus it is possible to help your civilian fleet financially, and to deliver goods without regard to the wear of the large landing craft and subsequent repairs. In addition, compulsory cargo insurance is a panacea for "unforeseen force majeure". And small warships and TFR can be sent with them as an escort, yet their repair is clearly cheaper. As a last resort, you can keep a platoon of marines or PMCs on such freighters for protection.
