The frigate Admiral Gorshkov begins the second phase of testing the hypersonic Zircon

Tests of the latest Russian Zircon hypersonic missile from the surface ship continue. According to TASS, citing two sources in the defense industry complex, the head frigate of project 22350 Admiral Gorshkov has already reached the sea ranges of the North fleet for conducting second test firing a hypersonic missile.

According to agency sources, the frigate went to sea for test launches, which will take place over the next two weeks. Sources also noted that an extensive test program for the Zircon from the Admiral Gorshkov was planned for 2020, the ship was supposed to make up to seven missile launches, but the tests had to be moved due to the coronavirus.

On Saturday, Gorshkov sailed from the Belomorsky Naval Base for a second test launch of the Zircon missile. The timeline has moved significantly - the second launch was originally supposed to take place in mid-spring

- the agency quotes the word sources.

It is not known how the Zircon tests will be conducted further, and there is also no data on the timing of the launch of the rocket from the submarine.

Recall that the first tests of the Zircon hypersonic missile from the surface ship became known at the end of February this year, when news agencies reported the launch of Zircon from the frigate Admiral Gorshkov at one of the Northern Fleet’s naval ranges in the Barents Sea. It was reported that a rocket launched from a ship overcame more than 500 km and hit a target located on the shore. It was clarified that the first launch was carried out in January.

As you know, to launch the Zircon missile, the 3S-14 universal ship’s firing complex (UKSK) is used, designed to fire the Caliber and Onyx. Currently, UKSK 3S-14 is equipped with all new ships under construction, as well as undergoing modernization. In addition, the UKKS is equipped with multi-purpose submarines of Project 885 Ash.

This is good news. No, even so - very important news. Shooting at sea targets is the hardest, most difficult thing. The target is mobile, moves quickly, shoots at the attacking missile, finally! You should get this "Zircon". "Zircon" should be ... deadly and indestructible. And let the adversary strain ...

2) Any system of destruction of a sea target flying at an altitude of less than 10 meters is practically indestructible. Hypersonic or subsonic.

True, we always hooked the BOD to it and, 10 minutes before the time "H", pressed it point-blank with the entire onboard RES! Even the navigation radars fired on the maximum scale ... Aviation also made its own contribution to the overall REB. Perhaps the most significant ... Then Amsk satellites "Ferrets" appeared, and it became necessary to select a window in the flight schedule ... Many products were tested at the Feodosia test site. Now this is not possible yet.

It seems to me that "Zircon" rises above 50 km during flight, and all its launches and launch trajectories are warned in advance so that the early warning system does not perceive friends as a ballistic missile launch, and for some reason all secret launches take place in Kazakhstan, on Sary -Shagan, I don't know, the sky there is clear, without clouds, maybe the satellites have an uncomfortable orbit?

Here I disagree a little, they do not notify about the launches of anti-ship missiles, but there is an exit of the missile launcher into near space, and even at a speed of no MAX, this may well be considered as a launch of a ballistic missile, it will not be far away, the early warning system is both ours and the United States sees the entire globe , and the size does not matter, the torch at the start is much smaller, but the speed and altitude are straining, and if you remember the "Tempest", an intercontinental cruise missile, not warning is fraught with big problems

No, this is already the 4th. The third reconfigured the ship M / S Eger. The new main ship, which is the fourth ship named Marjata, has a home port in Kirkenes, and M / S Eger has a home port in Harstad.
M / S Eger is a remodeled version of the third ship Marjata, which was decommissioned after the commissioning of Marjata IV in 2016.
And here is TTX Marjata IV:
The reconnaissance ship (RZK) Marjata (Maryata) of the Norwegian Navy is designed to collect, analyze and process information about the underwater, surface and air conditions, including in the Far North (mainly it is monitoring the activities of the Russian armed forces in the Arctic region). In addition, it can be used for hydrological work and scientific expeditions.
The RZK hull was built in Romania, and the afloat completion was carried out by the head contractor, Vard Langsten in Norway. In addition, some of the special equipment was installed on a ship at the US CIA base at Camp Perry, Virginia. Honningsvag, Norway is based.
The total displacement is 5000 tons. The length of the RPK is 126 m, the width is 23,5 m.
The new reconnaissance ship is the fourth in the Norwegian Navy, bearing the name "Maryata".
Adopted in 2016 year.

So SPRN here is not the case. The area is closed and a notification is given, here you can agree, but there is no place for an SPRN to be

It's hard to say how reasonable she is. The whole world had a more organized gradation of warships EMNIP missile boat - corvette - frigate - destroyer - cruiser.
The Soviet classification split this system into several more. In addition to the RCA, MRKs appeared, which, according to the western classification, passed as a missile corvette (URO corvette). Then the IPC appeared - which corresponded to the western concept of a corvette, a ship that was supposed to provide anti-submarine defense. EMNIP in the near sea zone. Next, the "damned imperialists" followed a frigate - a ship that carried out anti-aircraft and partially anti-submarine defense of the convoy. We now have a ship class. which turned out to be "non-systemic" and was .... let's say, it is not clear what. This is something in between. This is not the TFR in its pure form (the last of which was Project 50. This is something called the BOD, which in various years were classified as either the TFR or the BOD. The displacement ranged from the displacement of the destroyer to the displacement of the cruiser. Moreover, if the western ships This class most often carried also anti-ship weapons, that most of the BOD is only anti-submarine, while having a cruising displacement. create ships that could work exclusively in pairs - BOD pr. 1155 and EM pr. 956
So it's hard to consider our ship classification system reasonable. Of course this is my IMHO

Alas, not everything is clear here either. BOD project 61 had a maximum of 4300 tons, which is more than the EM project 56. Other BODs had a displacement comparable to cruising. No wonder that the same "Jane" attributed certain BODs to the class of cruisers in terms of displacement, when in terms of armament they did not even reach the strike weapons of destroyers.

Then came the IPC - which corresponded to the western concept of a corvette, a ship that was supposed to provide anti-submarine defense.

In fact, initially the corvette in the European Navy was not called a PLO ship (it was in WWII) but a missile boat with a helicopter - that is, it’s just an analogue of RTOs in function (shock) but not in the composition of weapons

This is not the TFR in its pure form (the last of which was Project 50. This is something called the BOD, which in various years were classified as either the TFR or the BOD.

The problem is that the imperialists had one and very specific task for the frigate - air defense / air defense transport connections in the sea / ocean, which required a rather large but not too heavily armed ship. But we had much more tasks - here, and the protection of coastal shipping, actions in the near and in the far sea zones - that is, in general, different ships were required. Therefore, those that were very small and only under PLO were IPC, which is larger - TFR, and that for operations in the far sea zone - BOD.

Quote: Old26

ships such as "Udalaya" and "Chabanenko", having essentially a similar displacement, one is a destroyer in armament, the second is a BOD. And the point was to create ships that could work exclusively in pairs - BOD pr. 1155 and EM pr. 956

It is not a matter of classification. It was believed that a pair of 1155 and 956 will cope with their tasks better than a pair of universal ships like "Adams", or whatever. That is, here we made a fundamental decision to build different types of ships in approximately the same displacement. You can discuss how the right decision was, but since it was made, it would hardly be right to put them in one class.

a solid-propellant rocket burns out very quickly very quickly, especially with such a rocket size. For example, the 1st stage of the Topol rocket engine operates for 2 minutes. At the same time, EMNIP weighs 26 tons and has a length of 9 meters. The engine of a cruise missile, that is, a rocket on which a motorized hypersound is implemented, can only be direct-flow
