Russian warships accompany the pipelayer "Academician Chersky"

The Russian pipe-laying vessel Akademik Chersky, capable of completing the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline, will pass from the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea, accompanied by Russian warships. It is reported by the web resource EurAsia Daily.

The portal came to this conclusion by studying data from navigation portals and messages from the Russian Ministry of Defense. Reportedly, Academician Chersky changed course from Sri Lanka to the Suez Canal, but stood on the island for several days, after which it turned off data transmission.

According to the data of navigation portals, the pipelayer approached Sri Lanka on March 3, after which he changed the route to the Suez Canal. However, the ship stood at the island for another three days, and on March 6 it simply turned off the automatic identification system (AIS). On March 4, the Baltic Fleet patrol ship Yaroslav the Wise arrived in Sri Lanka, which on March 6, after replenishing supplies, sailed back to the Gulf of Aden on an “anti-piracy” shift.

Moreover, at the same time as the watchman, a pipelayer also came out, who, under the cover of a Russian warship, could safely pass into the Red Sea and the Suez Canal. It is noted that when passing through the Aden Strait, ships traditionally turn off the AIS so as not to “shine” on pirate radars.

Meanwhile, it became known that after the "Academician Chersky" a large anti-submarine ship of the Pacific Fleet Admiral Vinogradov arrived in Sri Lanka, which, apparently, unofficially guarded the ship on the route from Nakhodka to Sri Lanka.

It is assumed that after the Akademik Chersky vessel passes the Suez Canal, a warship from the permanent group of the Russian Navy in the Mediterranean will take on its escort. Allegedly, the ship goes to St. Petersburg with the call to Kaliningrad.

Earlier it was reported that the Akademik Chersky vessel is the only Russian vessel capable of completing the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline without involving foreign companies.

On October 12, 2000, at 11:18 local time, at the portside of the USS Cole (DDG-67) a monstrous force struck an explosion that made a 9-by-12-meter hole in the skin. Tearing the "tin" board of the destroyer, the shock wave and the hot products of the explosion spread through the internal compartments of the ship, destroying everything in its path.

What is the relationship between AIS and radar? AIS operates in the VHF range, within direct radio visibility. Not connected with the radar in any way! This device simply broadcasts information about the vessel: Home port, destination port, cargo, crew, shipowner, course, speed ... ... everything that is stored in memory. And in turn, displays the same information about the surrounding vessels in the reach of the signal. And .. what does the radar have to do with it?

The horizon line seen by a person standing at the coastline at sea level is at a distance of 14 km. Then the Earth begins to round off (the school course of geography for the fifth grade (the Soviet school is meant). Consequently, the radar hits at least this distance. But generally more. For example, the ancient radar "Lotsiya" for small ships hits up to 16 miles (1 nautical mile = 1852,5 meters) And some ancient "Naiad" was beating like that up to 60. That is, much beyond the horizon. Ask where infa? Well ... for a number of years this was my work))

You forgot to indicate at what height the radar itself is located and what is the height of the ship from which the radar signal is reflected - not at sea level, that's for sure, if you are talking about 60 km.

[Rzzz]

The "Naiad" and "Pechora" have a 12 kW transmitter and an antenna a couple of meters in size. And the modern yacht radar, the smallest, has a 2.4 kW transmitter and an antenna of 30 centimeters. But, it is true, modern low-noise circuitry allows us to make devices with much better sensitivity. Let's say the coast fights off 15-20 miles, if it's high. The standard lake buoy is visible from 2-3 miles.
I also had such a job for many years. True, I never found a live "Naiad", I used "Mius" and "Pechora-2" only in practice. And when I was working on my own, I most of all looked at the Bridgmaster screen of the latest series, released under the Decca brand. That was a great device! Powerful, sensitive, large antenna - he showed the entire Ladoga Lake in a circle on the ultimate scale.
