Russian "Uranus" were on the corvettes of the South Korean construction

The South Korean corvette had a difficult fate: after serving for the good of his homeland, he ended up in Vietnam, where he was converted to a pennant due to the installation of the Russian weapons.

The initial appearance of the ship in service in the Navy of Vietnam

The Network posted photos photographing the ship under the number "20", with the KT-184 launcher, which is used for firing cruise anti-ship missiles X-35 "Uran-E".

Currently, the Vietnamese Navy has two ships of the Pohang type, which are classified as “submarine hunters”. The design of these ships is open for changes, which was used. Apparently, a similar modernization expects a second representative of this type. As BaoDatViet notes, this allows you to turn the Pohang into a "multi-functional ship with formidable power."

However, according to the publication, pennants equipped with the Uranus complex require the Harpoon-Ball radar - the main fire control radar. Due to its absence, the Pohang will have to receive target designation from other ships.

In addition to anti-aircraft missiles, portable “Needles”, means of ship protection [artillery] and hunting for submarines, “Pohang”, owned by the Vietnamese people, has a new powerful weapon that will help raise it to an unrivaled level

- writes BaoDatViet.

Really wanted a rocket ship? Strange decision. It’s the same as giving a blind man a shotgun.

[Elephant]

But this is better than nothing at all. And over time, they can put a radar, I think there will be enough space on the corvette for this.

[loki565]

It’s like to shoot a missile in that direction and hope that the GOS will capture the enemy))))

[Elephant]

Ship equipment control system "Uran E" weighs only 180 kg. and provides including generation of firing data at the target’s current location or at a pre-empted point, at a distance of up to 130 km.

[Vladimir_2U]

From a shotgun, you can shoot by ear. )))

[Astra wild]

Provided that the shooter has a fine ear, otherwise they will shoot anywhere

[Bar2]

the right way is comrades.

[bessmertniy]

The main thing is not to stop there! A small upgrade - and a small corvette turns into a powerful aircraft carrier!

[loki565]

It was easier and more efficient for them to buy RTOs like the Mirage, maybe with modernization. And this only fishing boats to drive.

[Elephant]

But nothing that Mirages is the development of the 80s, and the most formidable weapon on it is the P-120 Malachite in general from the 70s ?! But if, of course, look up, look up effective sales managers with us, then maybe ...

[loki565]

You have outdated information, now they are being upgraded and 16 uraniums are already being installed there

[Thrifty]

So, they gave the money to Russia to earn.

[Astra wild]

I would prefer that they buy ships from us, otherwise the main amount will go to SK

[Galleon]

Dear Astra, if only these ships were superfluous for us! You can't sell what you yourself lack. Remember MM Zhvanetsky: "Why are you stealing from a loss? Steal from a profit!" For this story, replace the word "steal" with the word "sell."

[Astra wild]

Galleon, even I know that Russia lacks good surface ships. I am attentive on the site. But I meant that they ordered something like: "Cheetah". There was information that in the Russian Federation they are building not expensive coastal corvettes "Gepard

[knn54]

Multipurpose corvette transferred to Vietnam as military assistance.

[Pavel57]

We had ourselves to take this ship from the Koreans.)))

[Astra wild]

So they have normal relations with South Korea if they buy ships from them. And the United States is not at all worried that SOCIALIST Vietnam will strengthen its navy? And why then did they object that capitalist Russia would strengthen its fleet? Someone will explain the logic to me, otherwise bad thoughts will appear

[knn54]

The logic is simple - the enemy of my enemy (in Vietnam, dislike of the Chinese has become a centuries-old tradition) is my friend.

[strannik1985]

Socialist Vietnam has tense relations with socialist China. The enemy of my enemy ...
They sell themselves (PLO planes), do not prevent the purchase of weapons from other countries, including Russia, and are not crushed by sanctions (Vietnam is now beneficial in terms of foreign direct investment).

[Ehanatone]

"Why then did they object that capitalist Russia would strengthen its fleet?"
Nothing about objections fsha
I can’t really say anything about our fleet, and what can we say about virtual reality - if they want to, then they will draw playful hands of artist-managers ...
But about the claims of our now pet-friendly friend of China, you can go on for a long time and interestingly, but the main theme now is this - rarely to which neighbor does the PRC have no territory

[Ehanatone]

"By the site administrator you were prohibited from leaving comments on this site"
Correct your buggy editor, it’s a shame for such a popular resource to have such a guano to fix it!

[Ehanatone]

There I wrote a lot of things about the friendship of peoples, but (see above) the FSE was lost in vain ...
I don’t want to restore, and I don’t remember anymore, to be honest ...

[askort154]

Vietnam is now for Russia - "and not a friend, and not an enemy, but ... so!
In 1978, an agreement was signed with the USSR on the construction of a military base in Kamrani for a period of 25 years. In a short time, a powerful base was built for the IMF and USSR Air Force. At the expiration of the term, the contract was not renewed. In 2014, Shoigu
visited Vietnam to restore the treaty. The matter seemed to move, but soon stalled, and then completely faded away. While we shoveled the "90s remnants"
we had no time for Vietnam, but the Anglo-Saxons took advantage of this, as they do everywhere, where the influence of the USSR left. The Vietnamese began to forget how the Americans sprinkled them with "chemicals", and quietly cooperate with them. Just as the Japanese forgave the testing of atomic bombs on them.

[Astra wild]

I know very well about the Japanese, but I thought that the Vietnamese remember the ideas of socialism. It seems that there are no ideological ones in the 21 m.

It is not known how much our South Korean would cost and how much Vietnam cost. And what can this we do not know. Whom will he drive or will not

So far, only ONE has been upgraded for the Russian Navy. In other countries, this modification is not yet available

Socialist Vietnam is now establishing ties with the United States. And if my sclerosis does not fail me, then the Americans will transfer some ships to Vietnam
