The fourth nuclear icebreaker of project 22220 laid in the second quarter of this year

The fourth nuclear-powered icebreaker of project 22220 of the Arctic type will be laid down at the Baltic Shipyard in St. Petersburg in the second quarter of 2020. This was reported by the press service of the enterprise.

According to the message, the fourth icebreaker will be laid at the Baltic Shipyard from April to June, the exact date has not yet been determined. Information about the laying of the fifth icebreaker has not yet been reported.

The fact that the construction of the fourth and fifth universal atomic icebreakers of Project 22220 will take place at the Baltic Shipyard became known in August this year, after the Shipyard won the bid for the construction of icebreakers. The plant is the only one that has the appropriate facilities and modern equipment for the construction of surface ships with a nuclear power plant.

The contract stipulates that the first icebreaker must be delivered to the customer no later than December 20 of 2024, and the second - no later than December 20 of 2026. Thus, after the delivery of the last production ship, Russia will have the five most powerful nuclear-powered icebreakers in the world for this project.

At present, the lead nuclear icebreaker of project 22220 Arktika is preparing for delivery at the Baltic Shipyard in St. Petersburg; transfer to the customer is scheduled for May this year. In addition, the Shipyard is completing the completion of the first and second serial icebreakers of this project - Sibir and Ural. The deadline for the completion of Siberia and the Urals is planned for 2021 and 2022, respectively.

A feature of the 22220 project icebreakers is the use of variable draft using ballast tanks. Double-deck ships can operate both in deep water and in shallow water in river beds, overcoming ice up to 3-meters thick without losing speed.

The main power plant of icebreakers includes two "Rhythm-200" reactors with thermal capacity of 175 MW each. Its main advantage over other similar installations lies in its compactness and economy, as well as energy-efficient integrated layout.

Well, then the "Leaders" will be laid in the Big Stone.

It’s just not clear how ice will be cleaved from the superstructure?
This refers to the front part - a sort of designer excess with inclined surfaces.

I think that they thought up this nuance. Therefore, it has such a form

Perhaps, in the end, without this excess, it will go into construction.
The purpose is completely unclear. Airships, what is there to launch inside?

Probably, there is a heating and ice cleaning system, but these are my speculations.

The best system is the lack of such a bandura at the very top.
If I worked in the tropics - no questions!
In the north, icing is just the norm! Forever!
Well, how many deck crew are there? Man 10-15?
To make heating? On ... why? Maybe just do not put such a decoration?
Still somehow managed.

Do you understand dear ...
My curiosity is somewhat professional.
I am a ship modeller, and besides an engineer. CCM on models of copies of civil courts, 3rd place in Russia in 1966 and 68 and 2nd place in 1980
So I know the design of various vessels brilliantly.

Of course you have. The reactor is pretty hot, so there is no problem with heat, it is often not known where to put it.

Honor and praise for such high school results. I have no doubt in your knowledge, but it seems to me that since you built your models, science and technology have gone far ahead. And I think that such a superstructure is not out of the idle beauty of design. there is clearly a practical component based on the use of modern technologies and materials. And everything was taken into account. Personally, I am also interested and curious - what it is, how the service is carried out and what is under it.

[Sergey S.]

It could very well be ... Due to being late, changing equipment. postponement, lack of funding ...

my speculation

Faithful conjectures. It is more convenient for a comrade to see ice and snow blocks from the deck and mechanisms, than from the top of the superstructure, on which the snow will not fall, because strong winds sweep it away. people inside are more comfortable to work with. A large sail due to this will not hurt them, it is not open water but ice. In our ice, only such units work.

Heated roof will do. It will melt itself

Do you think that this process will be carried out on the latest icebreakers as on the Ermak icebreaker - with crowbars and shovels? Have you thought about the fact that a nuclear power plant should be enough to simply heat this part of the ship? Indeed, with such a configuration, it is much easier than heating all these decks, stepped superstructures and railings, as on ships of the classical scheme.

In any case, it will not do without it.
Excessive heat from the reactor is more than useful for the screws. It just leaves to warm the water overboard.
I just don't understand what exactly is located under this "decoration"?
Well, in the end, am I entitled to curiosity?

So, do you think crowbars and shovels are ours? Is logic inaccessible to you, or did you decide to portray the troll here? The power of the reactor is sufficient to heat the superstructure. Even aircraft have enough generator power for the anti-icing system. Why do you think you need to warm water overboard? This is generally some kind of madhouse.

Of course you have. And I have. It’s just that from my experience of staying in the ice I say so. It would be possible to close the stern, but there is a helipad and a towing arch. So no matter how.

It's just that the author of the article knows how to count only up to three. From the fourth, his account began a new one.

[orionvitt]

How so, what is the next nuclear icebreaker? And if you listen to some particularly competent liberal "specialists", it turns out that everywhere is devastation, nothing is being built, nothing is working. Widespread poverty and dullness. And nuclear icebreakers come from somewhere. And the richest country in the world, with its Arctic ambitions, nervously smokes on the sidelines. Probably they hope that they will not master the Arctic, but buy it as always.

[Thrifty]

Or maybe expand that series to 8 units? ??

With the withdrawal of the Soviet icebreakers from the composition, I think they will introduce new ones, and most likely this project will be massively increased.
The fight for the Arctic has just begun ... by the way, the big question is what will happen to the Antarctic.

[KAVBER]

More icebreakers, good and different, and most importantly, our relatives

Big factory, a great thing is being done there!
We will rejoice with all the employees of the enterprise.

Icebreakers - Good deed, let it be!

".. became known in August of this year .." - the article seems to have been published today, but it is January ..

[Mihail2019]

The maxim "Russia will have the five most powerful nuclear icebreakers of this project in the world." - just smells like some National Geography.
Firstly, Russia already has the most powerful icebreakers in the world, and by no means of this project.
Secondly, the most powerful icebreakers are atomic.
Thirdly, except Russia, no country has nuclear icebreakers.
And then from this "curve" phrase, one might think that there are some other countries in the world that "have powerful nuclear icebreakers."
I’m talking about: how a skillfully constructed phrase can pretty much diminish the advantages of an opponent in the eyes of the townsfolk. It seems they didn’t lie, but the accents set up very characteristic.

[Mihail2019]

And I was banned by the administrator for criticizing the expression "Russia will have the five most powerful nuclear icebreakers in the world of this project." ..

[Mihail2019]

I wrote about the presentation of the material .. He was offended.
Please inform us about the reasons for the "ban"!

[Samaks]

"Shipyard won the tender for the construction of icebreakers."
for what tender, if "The plant is the only one who has the appropriate capacity and modern equipment for the construction of surface ships with a nuclear power plant."

[Mihail2019]

And the news is good! I was in Yamal - I saw "Vaygach", albeit from afar, but at work: how dashingly he spilled on solid ice, just beauty!
And once again I saw from the air, one of those of the "Arctic" class, recognizable at a time, especially since in childhood I glued a plastic model of the "Arctic". I won't lie, but the superstructure was red, not orange - it was walking in thin ice, behind it was some kind of "truck" in the wake, well, I didn't see anything further - I saw what I was lucky to see through the window of one side.

[Old26]

By the way, is the name of the fourth already announced or not?
