"We monitor our sea around the clock": the Finnish Navy showed the use of a torpedo

30

The Finnish naval forces are gradually undergoing modernization, which should give them the ability to fight enemy submarines.

In particular, the existing anti-submarine defense systems receive new weapons systems. The use of a torpedo from the Swedish company Saab was recently demonstrated. The footage, laid out by the military department, shows the work of the boat "Hamina", during which he tried to hit a simulated submarine.



Apparently, we are talking about testing the 400 mm torpedo Tp-45. An agreement on their temporary use was signed with Sweden in January 2018. The weapon of this type should close the gap in the Finnish anti-submarine defense before the start of deliveries of the new NLT torpedo, also known as the Tp-47 (expected in 2023-2025).

The use of the Tp-45 indicates the completion of the modernization of at least one Hamina-class boat (there are 4 of them in total, they form the core of the Finnish Navy), which had not previously specialized in ASW. In accordance with the Paris Peace Treaty of 1947, Helsinki was actually prohibited from having torpedo weapons.

Ensuring navigation and protection of our territorial waters is the main task of the Navy. We monitor our sea around the clock, every day of the year

      Yes, it was decided to add peppercorns to the title of the article, in the text the main thing is "the protection of our territorial waters", because they have their own terrorists and from this comes "our sea", meaning their own sea zone. But the hype will be caught, wait the Finns will be erased into powder in the comments)))

        If so, it is info manipulation. At least indecent. But wait, how it is written and what was meant by saying "our sea" are two big differences. Therefore, this is an official statement, they perfectly understood what they were writing. Therefore, you are already manipulating here.

          Don't worry so much.

          Original, in Finnish:
          "The coastal fleet continues to develop new weapons."

          Finns have nothing to do with the title of the article on VO.

    So how is it? The sea has not disappeared, the water is salty? With the Navy, at least everything is clear
    boats like "Hamina" (there are 4 of them, they make up the core of the Finnish Navy)

    Boats are power recourse
    I just thought, now they often show how drones work on tanks, guided ammunition like 22 kilograms. If you use 2 or 3 pieces for a boat, what will happen? Will he sink?

      If you get into the wheelhouse or mast-tower with a radar (and this is possible with accurate missiles), then it will be disabled.
      Drowning is more difficult.

        Assuming the bursting effect is not less than a 76 mm projectile, hull penetration, shrapnel in the crew, engines, fuel ignition - you are an optimist, however.

      Hardly. Why would he drown?
      It will either burn out or be guaranteed to be incapacitated.

      So, only a little remains: to successfully use a weapon on it and clean up the consequences of this use.

    I am commenting. Finland is integrated into NATO. NATO is an organization for the colonization of the USSR.

      Finland is colonized by NATO. The USSR has not been colonized for 30 years. Tribaltic, Georgia, Ukraine have been colonized. They will not go any further.

        I remember they banned me for Finland (they had a movie about national heroes who repulsed the 1944 offensive), I said that a person was being strangled with both hands and Leningrad was strangling not only Hitler but also the Finns. I read one Western questionnaire - the Finns have the most negative attitude towards Russians, like the Balts.

    Now it will be possible to officially nominate the US fleet for the protection of this state.

      The Paris Peace Treaty forbade Finland to have submarines, PLO weapons, etc., but Finland refused to fulfill this treaty in 1990, when the restrictions were lifted from Germany. In short, you can't understand them, we read here, we don't read here))). Everyone somehow made up
