American patrol boats arrived in Odessa for transfer to the Ukrainian Navy

97
The American Ocean Freedom container ship with Island class patrol boats (P190 Slavyansk and P191 Starobelsk) arrived for the Ukrainian Navy this morning in Odessa. New items have already been repainted by the sender in gray, and new board numbers and names are also applied in the USA.





An agreement on the transfer of military equipment was reached during the presidency of Petro Poroshenko. Island class boats were owned by the US Coast Guard, which is currently undergoing a large-scale technical upgrade process.

Discarded ships and vessels are sent to US allies around the world, primarily those who find it difficult to maintain order at sea on their own - for financial reasons. In particular, island-class patrol boats received, in addition to Ukraine, the security forces of Georgia, Pakistan and Costa Rica.

Novelties of the Navy carry only light weapons, more characteristic of a border ship than a naval watchman fleet. According to open sources, while serving in the United States Coast Guard, the arsenal of the Island consisted of a 25 mm Mk 38 Bushmaster automatic gun mount and two 12,7 mm M2 Browning machine guns. According to other sources, the armament from the boats was withdrawn.

          It would be cheaper, the resource of the engines must be saved! Interestingly, are they suitable or small targets for practical shooting?

            It is interesting that these laibs are intended for the OVR of the Azov and Black Seas, i.e. one unit for each water area. A hefty rich addition to the "great sea power". Now you can safely transfer the boxes captured during the "Kerch adventure" to the balance of the LDNR Navy.

If the armament is removed, then on the nose of some 23mm remote combat module + a similar remote installation from mounts above or behind (10 or 10 + km, so that at least something is), 12.7mm remote or manual installations on the sides turrets. A couple of extra guys with an RPG among the crew. With communication, etc. Aselsan will be asked, happy to install, because recently they began close cooperation with them in this area ..

      But someone once handed out weapons, delivered from the USSR to the right and left.
      During this period, the illegal transfer of military equipment and property of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the territory of the Russian Federation is also noted. In particular, in 1991, about 40 Yak-38 carrier-based aircraft were withdrawn from service, dismantled, loaded onto barges and sent to an unknown destination. In 1992, the search and rescue ship "Yamal" entered the raid of the Baltic Fleet (RF), however, it did not return to the home port in Ukraine and was not taken into account when the USSR Black Sea Fleet was divided in 1997.

      The same situation occurred with the BS-555 submarine, four Mi-8MT and Mi-14PL helicopters, which were transferred to Anapa and were not taken into account when dividing the fleet. In addition, 17 units of four-wheel drive floating transporter vehicles were relocated to Moscow; Five vehicles of radar fighting for their movement to Novorossiysk are removed from untouchable reserves. In February 1992, during planned training flights, six Su-24 aircraft, together with crews, ended up on the territory of the Russian Federation. Subsequently, the officers successfully served in Russia, and the aircraft were not returned.

      At least 50% of the military equipment and property of the former 98th Airborne Division of the USSR Armed Forces, which was deployed in Bolgrad, Odessa Region, were loaded onto 27 railway trains and transported to Ivanovo (RF). And already in 2014, the 98th Guards Airborne Division of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation took part in the invasion of Ukraine using equipment that Ukraine had once transferred to Russia.

      In addition to conventional weapons, Ukraine supplied Russia with nuclear weapons. So until May 1992, before determining the order of export, conditions and the amount of compensation for nuclear weapons, 2 thousand 883 tactical nuclear charges were transferred from the territory of Ukraine to the Russian Federation.

      Now the Missouri battleship begging, or there’s not enough scrap metal

      Yesterday, a major namesake inspired an opus about scrap metal.

      If you are a good sponsor
      By mistake or with a fool,
      Ile for the kindness of the soul
      Gave a couple of boats,
      That they should be ten years old,
      It’s a simple scrap
      Do not rush to lose heart!
      Try to get started
      Unscrew what is possible.
      Face impartially
      All cash rigging.
      Separate by composition
      All the "ferrous metal" and the whole "color metal".
      If something comes across
      From a fixed structure,
      That hacksaw
      Protruding parts
      Those made of copper
      An urgent need to saw off.
      After that "grinder"
      And, of course, a "gas cutter"
      Open the hull
      To lifting pieces.
      Gently and without haste
      Load everything into the wagons,
      What is being transported scrap metal
      Not forgetting about the anchor
      And about the anchor chain.
      After that send
      "Valiant" Americans
      SMS with a wish
      Happiness, Peace and Love
      To the simple-minded Ukrainians.
      And try of course
      Begging again-
      A couple of boats.
      And unprecedented "happiness"
      White-toothed smile
      It will illuminate your light path.
      Many countries live without a fleet
      Having no representation
      About the seas and ships.
      You have the same luck.
      Sea view since
      There are no significant problems
      Relax in the warm waves
      On sea bicycles
      On rubber mattresses
      Or even just swim.
      BUT ABOUT THE FLEET ABOUT YOURSELF FORGET !!!

    If the boats are transferred free of charge, that is, free of charge, then all other work is carried out only for the recipient's money. And if Ukraine did find money for transportation, then I haven’t heard about the similar transportation of the same boats for Georgia, it looks like Georgia hasn’t saved up money for this.

    Will there be a rally at launch ?! How was it at Peck? Ze will arrive with his retinue! They will push the speeches about how these troughs will help Nazalezhna defeat the Ahressor! And in the evening a binge, a sauna and other nishtyaks with American "partners" will wash a good deal, so to speak! laughing

      So it works! This ship has a lot of work and a small crew. In contrast to the 30-meter-high monuments of life-threatening power, where 18 sailors will run a marafet around the clock and polish all kinds of torpedoes there.

      It takes time to paint, and a day of idle time for such a ship is many, many thousands of bucks. I would say many tens of thousands even

    Will not change the balance of power. But the states are enthusiastically engaged in equipping the "Coast Guard" of Georgians and Ukrainians. First, ground radar posts and small patrol aircraft. The American military engineers built the base of boats themselves (as for themselves). In general, they are mastering the post-Soviet space at an accelerated pace.

    Well. And they said, how do they get there ?! That they will sink! .. That hat is all! .. And so they will reach. Everything was invented before us.
    And enough of the enemy to throw their hats. Short-sighted is the case.
    Of course, this will not change the balance of power, but to drink blood and * hemorrhoids * add these vessels more than capable hi
