Was it possible to save the destroyers of Project 956? Need to!

What's better? Photo for memory…

... or a real combat ship in service?

The fate of the Project 956 destroyers in our Navy today is no secret to anyone who is even slightly interested in naval issues. But even in the chaos of the post-Soviet years, everything could have gone differently. There have been positive examples of how these ships were kept in service.

From an interview with the commander of the North fleet Admiral G. A. Suchkov, 2004:

At Sevmash, we repaired the Fearless destroyer. For three years, in debt. The plant went to meet us, and we will pay off with it during this and 2005. But we have a destroyer.
And in 2000, the destroyer Rastoropny was delivered for repairs at Severnaya Verf in St. Petersburg. More precisely, they put two, one of which was quickly written off there, and they plan to return Rastoropny to us already in 2010. Despite the fact that in Severodvinsk the cost of repairs rose to us at 280 million rubles, and at "Severnye Verfy" - 470 million rubles. Who is behind this?

Today, the Fearless destroyer is named Admiral Ushakov and is the only running destroyer in the Northern Fleet.

Could other ships have been dealt with in similar ways? Nobody even checked this.

Kicked horses are shot

Two very illustrative examples that very well describe the difference between the approaches that were actually shown in our country, and others, not ours.

Example № 1:

Kaliningrad, May 13, 2018 / TASS /. Sea tugs of the Baltic Fleet have driven the destroyer Bespokoiny from Baltiysk, the main base of the Baltic Fleet in the Kaliningrad region, to Kronstadt, where it will become a floating exhibit of the Patriot Park's marine branch, Fleet spokesman Roman Martov told reporters on Sunday.

The destroyer "Restless" in the "Patriot" park in Kronstadt ...

To understand all the shame and shame of what happened, it is necessary to emphasize that in order to extend the service life of the ships of the USSR Navy, the service life of main cable routes is very acute, i.e. year the ship was built. At the same time, all large anti-submarine ships (BOD) of project 1155, missile cruisers (RRC) of project 1164, which are in the Navy's combat composition, have a service life longer than the destroyer "Restless", which entered the Navy in 1992 and was sent to the fleet. No comment.

By the way, the former commander of "Restless", Rear Admiral VA Tryapichnikov, is now the head of the Naval Shipbuilding Directorate.

As of today, three Project 956 destroyers remain formally (in a very problematic technical state) in the Navy's combat composition: Rapid in the Pacific Fleet, Admiral Ushakov in the Northern Fleet, and Persistent in the Baltic (does not go out to sea).

31.03.2018/25/2. The flagship of the Baltic Fleet, the destroyer Nastoichivy, is XNUMX years old. In the near future, the ship's crew is preparing to go to sea to work out the elements of the course task (K-XNUMX). In the naval ranges of the Baltic Fleet, the crew of the "Nastoichivny" will have to carry out artillery and rocket firing, conduct air defense exercises, and also work out anti-submarine missions.
Department of information support of the Baltic region (Kaliningrad).

However, the "Persistent" could not get out into the sea ... "Restless" went to the park. Actually, the very presence of destroyers in the Baltic Fleet (as well as the “crowd” of corvettes) raises the question of the adequacy of the operational planning of the Navy for its intended purpose, because even without questions (without an answer) of combat support, these ships can be hit right at the berths by long-range enemy artillery.

Destroyers of the Baltic Fleet in Baltiysk. Waiting for Polish shells ...

Example # 2. In 2019, the upgraded (since 2015) destroyer of Project 956E "Hangzhou" of the PLA Navy entered sea trials (instead of the beam launcher of the Shtil air defense system, vertical launchers of the HHQ-16 air defense system were installed, the HHQ-10 air defense system launcher appeared, instead of Anti-ship missiles "Moskit-E" deployed new anti-ship missiles YJ-12A). The second destroyer Fuzhou is undergoing a similar upgrade.

Taking into account the deployed PLA Navy "ship conveyor", the attitude towards the ships of Project 956 (two projects 956E and two projects 956ME) is indicative.

Four PLA destroyers (projects 956E and 956ME)

The Chinese have a fundamentally caring attitude even to old ships (an example of which is our first destroyers of the very problematic 7U project, which for a long time were part of the PLA Navy, and now some of them are preserved as a monument), but the question and the meaning of the article are not in them, but in the Russian Navy.

Was it possible (and was it necessary) to preserve and modernize the destroyers of Project 956?

If it turned out to be an extremely expensive modernization of Marshal Shaposhnikov and other much older and more problematic ships of Project 1155, then with regard to the 956 destroyers the answer should have been "yes." Yes, not all ships, but only the newest.

But nevertheless, such modernization did not take place.

Often this is "blamed" for the steam turbine (PTU) main power plant (GEM) of destroyers.

The alleged problem of a steam turbine main power plant

In 1995, the author heard the phrase "the horses are being driven to shoot" in the previous heading at the 7th operational squadron of the Northern Fleet in response to a question about the reasons for the extremely difficult technical condition of all the destroyers of the squadron.

Before falling down with my heart, many of our destroyers managed to run very, very many miles. For example, the operating time of the boilers of the head destroyer "Sovremenny" at the time of putting into repair (decommissioning) was about 25 thousand hours for each boiler. An even more striking example is the destroyer "Otlichny", which passed 8 miles in 150 years of active operation (for comparison: Peter the Great had only 535 miles on the lag in 17 years).

In the course of combat service in 1986 in conditions of high water and air temperatures, "Excellent" effectively won the race against two gas turbine ships of the US Navy KR URO CG48 Yorktown and EM DD970 Caron.

"Excellent" takes fuel from BMT "Ivan Bubnov" in the Mediterranean Sea, 1986

The examples given show that the matter was not in the reel after all ...

Yes, in the situation of the 90s. the issues of operation of ships with steam turbine installations at high parameters arose very acutely. It is acute both in the training of personnel (especially in the urgent service), and in the repair and water treatment. Alas, the Navy used, to put it mildly, not all of its capabilities.

For example, in the 90s, a lot of nuclear submarines with an unexploited resource of active zones and power plants were withdrawn from the Navy. And nothing prevented the "boiling" of feed water for steam-turbine surface ships with a guaranteed supply of their needs. As a matter of fact, they did this on submarines (with a destroyed coastal supply system), a "unit" (submarine) was started up in order to provide the rest of the nuclear-powered ships with high-purity water.

Given the large resource of the zones of decommissioned submarines, this did not require any additional costs for the fleet. However, not a single such case is known for surface ships, as if our submariners and surface watermen served in different fleets ...

We are not the only ones who can smoke. In the photo, the frigate LCS of the US Navy (with a gas turbine power plant)

Yes, the use of a boiler and turbine plant on a modern warship is an outdated solution. But quite working! And due to production reasons at the time of the decision. Production reasons for the problematic issues of the main power plants of ships, our modern shipbuilding tasted to the fullest. Especially after 2014, the time of the actual loss of the Ukrainian enterprise Zorya-Mashproekt (gas turbine units and gearboxes). The issue of not only new ships (projects 11356 and 22350), but also the possibility of operating previously built ships with gas turbine installations (projects 1135, 11540, 1155, 1164, 1166) has become extremely acute. Continuation of active operation in that situation BOD project 1155 simply "killed" their resource.

Was it technically possible to restore the destroyers' KTU (last hulls)? Yes, of course: the steam turbine units themselves had a very significant resource, and problematic boilers could be replaced with modern KVG-3D (as for the Indian aircraft carrier Vikramaditya), with the replacement of fuel oil with diesel fuel. There was free money in the country in 2014 ...

Moreover, such a decision would have prompted an adequate repair and modernization of the TAVKR "Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Kuznetsov". In the current reality, with the traditional triviality of the Navy, they decided to "save money" by replacing only 4 emergency boilers ... left 4 others (old), decided not to replace fuel from fuel oil with diesel. A year later, they decided to change all the boilers, but the first 4 were already purchased for fuel oil. I had to take 4 others with fuel oil ... Accordingly, with the entry into the Navy of "Kuznetsov" we get a situation when the ships of the same formation use different fuel. Given the Navy's tanker problems, this is an amazing solution. Save on matches!

At the same time, there are unreliable statements that supposedly these ships are so outdated that their modernization does not make sense. It's worth dealing with this.

Problematic TTZ and weak air defense

TTZ for the design of a fire support ship for the landing of the Navy issued to the Northern PKB in 1971. That is, initially these were artillery ships with the main task of supporting the landing. In the process of development and creation, the project received high-speed and anti-jamming anti-ship missiles Moskit and the M-22 Uragan collective defense air defense system (however, very controversial in terms of the concept of construction).

At the same time, the ships had a single surveillance radar, extremely weak anti-submarine weapons and a single helicopter in a movable hangar, which, taking into account the displacement, which had increased to "cruising", raised questions ...

The detection of air targets was provided by the general detection radar "Fregat" (hereinafter in the series - "Fregat-M" and "Fregat-MA (2)"), which was also the target designation radar of the M-22 "Uragan" air defense missile system (with the provision of "illumination" for passive radar homing heads of missiles (PRLGSN missiles) assigned to defeat targets with special radio searchlights). A serious drawback of the ship was the presence of only one surveillance radar (moreover, the decimeter range, which is not optimal for detecting low-flying anti-ship missiles) and the absence of a CIUS.

Radio searchlight illumination "Nut" and TV set target tracking SAM M-22.

The lack of only one radar was corrected only on the latest ships of the series, which were exported to China, by installing a radar for the Positiv command module and two combat modules of the Kashtan near-line anti-aircraft complex (ZKBR) with artillery and missiles.

The destroyer and the main threat. From the air ...

However, Russian destroyers had problems with air defense, and very serious ones.

From the memoirs of the officer of the Missile and Artillery Armament Directorate of the Navy, Captain I Rank V.K. Pechatnikov:

The concept of building a complex with no means of tracking the target nevertheless prevailed, or rather, it was pushed by shipbuilders: they just had to place light and small-sized illumination projectors and did not have to rack their brains with placing an additional location of the complex. This circumstance has always been the subject of rejection of the complex by the naval structures. To be honest, at first I did not see a big sin in this, being a native of the winged theme, where launching towards the target, even in the absence of any contact with it, was a common thing. Then, however, when it became necessary to introduce a new missile 9M38M1, and later its subsequent modifications, these funds became simply vital, but the logic of building the system no longer allowed them to be built in painlessly .... but the lack of its own target tracking stations in the complex ... then became a big stumbling block.
In addition, the lead ship of Project 956 "Sovremenny" was launched, which should have been armed with the M-22 air defense system. We reported to the commander-in-chief of the Navy that, by changing the ideology of building the complex in order to fully use the capabilities of the rocket, we can freeze the program for building new ships for 4-5 years. Having found out that even under the previous ideology the complex is 5-6 times more productive than the existing "Volna-M", the commander-in-chief decided to leave everything as it is with subsequent modernization.
If I knew then that there would be no more upgrades, perhaps they would agree with the delay or partial arming of the ships ...
According to the plan, we had to take the air defense system into service until 1980, in which the Sovremenny destroyer had already surrendered to the fleet. Of course, we did not have time: the complex did not want to shoot down low-altitude targets. In addition, one feature came to light: firing a salvo of cruise missiles coming from one direction sharply reduced the likelihood of defeat. The main parameter of the TTZ was practically not met. The missile seeker, opening at the top of the trajectory, began to direct the missile to the energy center of the targets and only as it approached it switched to tracking the nearest target ... But since the concept of further upgrades had already been adopted, they decided to leave everything as it is.

Conclusions on the combat effectiveness of Project 956 destroyers

The strike complex with the Moskit anti-ship missile was great. True, for carriers such as an airplane or boat. Alas, for a ship of almost cruising displacement, an operational missile system was openly requested, with an appropriate "long arm" (range).

Launch of anti-ship missiles "Moskit" by the destroyer "Bystry" (Pacific Fleet)

To characterize the artillery capabilities of the ship (two highly automated AK-130 artillery complexes) for the main purpose, it is best to quote an ex-officer of the Pacific Fleet (on the Courage forum):

In 2000, they practiced a war in the seaside direction with the 5th army. The groundmen spent a week building a company stronghold. After receiving the control center from the correction post, after 5 minutes, horns and legs remained from the ROP. The shooting was carried out by pr. 956 board 778 2 AU AK-130, the rate of fire is maximum. The ROP was at a distance of 3 km from the coast. The minimum firing range was 20 km. The chief of staff and chief of artillery of the army were delighted.
The ship is given 5 minutes to apply an artillery gun against a coastal target, while it continuously moves in an anti-artillery zigzag, shoots and jamming.
Regarding the range, I agree (not enough), but there is little comfort in the fact that it is hard for coastal artillerymen to shoot at a maneuvering target, which is able to dump you almost 3 tons of land mines in a minute ...

Well, anti-submarine weapon (4 torpedoes SET-65 in two twin-tube torpedo tubes and RBU-1000 for anti-torpedo protection) with the sickly GAS Platina was frankly weak.

DTA-53-956 torpedo tubes for SET-65 torpedoes.

RBU-1000

The only helicopter for a ship of almost cruising displacement was also not a source of pride (though the larger project 1164 RRC had the same).

At first glance, the conclusions for the 956 project are devastating.

However, if you look closely, it becomes obvious that the 956 is just one of the examples of serious conceptual shortcomings of literally all 3rd generation ships of the USSR Navy (in the most striking form this manifested itself in the development of the next generation destroyer, with devastating criticism by the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy S.G. Gorshkov. organizations of the Navy).

SAM "Fort-M"? Several examples of not always successful shooting them.

For exercises (with practical rocket firing) 2011:

According to "Varyag", for him RTOs started up 2 RM P-120 The "Fort" air defense missile system did not work, whether it works or not, it is difficult to say, it was possible to let a cloud of RM in Feodosia, when it was tested on the Azov BPK, personal opinion is ambiguous, although coastal work perfectly.

That is, we see serious systemic problems of the Navy, in which the shortcomings of individual projects are a special case.

Obviously, these problems had to be solved comprehensively (and the task is quite technically solvable) on the scale of the fleet, and accordingly the issue of "problem projects" is in the plane of their optimal modernization.

Export alternative

In the conditions of practically "zeroing" of the naval shipbuilding program after the December 1991 event, export became the salvation for the domestic shipbuilding. Moreover, it began with the supply of large surface warships of new projects back in the USSR, for example, the construction of a series of Project 61ME destroyers for the Indian Navy.

In the early 90s. A program for the creation of export frigates of Project 11356 and Indian destroyers of Project 15 (with significant Russian design assistance and the supply of combat systems) began to be implemented at domestic shipyards.

Launch of SAM ZKBR "Kashtan" by the frigate Talwar project 11356 (first series)

The Indian customer harshly raised the issue of including an effective collective defense air defense system in the composition of these ships, while the export "Rif" (our "Fort-M") obviously did not pass under weight and size restrictions.

As a result, on the basis of the Uragan air defense missile system, on the basis of a promising groundwork and plans for its modernization, in a short time, an actually new Shtil-1 air defense missile system was created, initially with a beam launcher from Uragan, and later with a new vertical launcher for new missiles with increased range 9M317ME (first presented abroad at the EURONAVAL-2004 show).

Advertising leaflet for air defense missile system "Shtil-1" with UVP NPP "Start" (Yekaterinburg)

Here it is necessary to note the creation by the St. Petersburg "Meridian" of the BIUS "Requirement" series for the ships of the Indian Navy. This work began in the late 80s. (that is, even before the start of work on projects 11356 and 15), had several stages and ultimately led to the creation of a "maximum" version of the BIUS "Requirement-M" for Russian frigates of project 11356, ensuring the use of incl. SAM with active radar seeker (ARGSN).

Subsequently, on the basis of the "Shtil-1" groundwork and a vertical-launch missile defense system, the Chinese Navy was already created (with large Russian participation) the HHQ-16 air defense system.

The total number of foreign ships with the Shtil-1 / HHQ-16 air defense system is impressive.

Indian Navy:
- 3 destroyers of the Delhi class, pr. 15, built in India, entered service in 1997-2001. - two single-girder launchers (48 missiles);
- 6 frigates of the Talvar type, pr. 11356 (construction of the series continued), built in Russia, entered service in 2003-2004. (the first three) and in 2012-2013. - one single-girder PU (24 missiles);
- 3 frigates of the "Shivalik" type, pr. 17, built in India, entered service in 2010-2012. - one single-girder PU (24 missiles).

Chinese Navy:
- 4 destroyers of project 956E / EM, built in Russia, entered service in 1999-2000 (first two) and 2005-2006. - two single-girder launchers (48 missiles);
- 2 destroyers of 052В type, built in China, entered service in 2004, - two single-beam launchers (48 missiles);
- 30 frigates of the 054A type, built in China, have been commissioned since 2008 (4 ships under testing + 2 under construction) - WPU of the Chinese version of "Calm" - HHQ-16 (32 missiles).

A total of 48 ships of the Indian and Chinese navies.

Note: the far border of the affected area is different for various modifications of the "Calm" and can be 24, 32 and 50 km

A modernization that never happened

The beginning of 2014, a coup in Ukraine. The Russian Navy receives a "knockdown" in the form of a refusal to supply gas turbine power plants for new ships and repair old ones. At the same time, the sharp exacerbation of the military-political situation sharply raises the question of the real combat effectiveness of the armed forces and the Navy (Navy ships).

As mentioned above, replacement of boilers and repair of KTU, while ensuring proper operation, made it possible to actively and intensively operate the repaired destroyers (including in the far and ocean zones).

At the same time, new equipment, weapon systems made it possible to revise the entire concept of Project 956 with the creation of effective multipurpose ships in the process of modernization.

The presence of serial air defense systems "Shtil-1", radars ("Fregat-MA" and "Positive"), BIUS "Requirement" made it possible to dramatically increase the efficiency of the ships' air defense. In the situation of 2014, it was completely completed and had significant reserves for the modernization and development of the air defense system, with eliminated the shortcomings of the Hurricane. Do not forget that in 2014 the new air defense system of the Navy "Poliment-Redut" (Project 22350 frigates) was in a state that was very far from combat capability ...

The problematic issue was short-range air defense systems. All proposals of the industry in this area (SAM "Redut" with SAM 9M100, "Tor-FM", "Pantsir-M") had some serious shortcomings (more details: "Corvettes that will go into battle"), but drawbacks to be solved.

Taking into account the unambiguous priority of radio command control systems for short-range air defense systems, the optimal solution would be comparative tests of the Tora-FM and Pantsir-M, developed on the initiative, on various ships of the Navy, followed by a decision on their results. In this case, one could be sure that "Shell" and "Thor" would have a significantly different, much more effective appearance and capabilities today.

Removing the main task from the ships - fire support, made it possible to obtain multipurpose ships on their basis with the replacement of the AK-130 stern artillery mount with the UKSK missiles of the "Caliber" and "Onyx" complex (3x8, as in one of the development variants of the 956 project).

Ut and aft gun mount AK-130

One of the options for the development of Project 956 with the UKSK for "Caliber" and "Onyx" (instead of the aft AK-130) and 4 combat modules of the ZKBR "Kortik" (with the removal of the "Mosquito" launch complex)

In the stern of it, the towed active-passive GAS "Minotavr" normally stood up, while the broadband GAS "Platina-M" made it possible to ensure joint work with the BUGAS "Minotavr-ISPN". That is, the composition of hydroacoustic means is obtained close to those envisaged for the promising project of the Navy 20386. In terms of the capabilities of detecting submarines, such a composition of hydroacoustic means unambiguously surpassed the SJSC Polynom (due to the use of a lower frequency range), except for the bow sector, but it was easily compensated by the joint work of a pair of ships.

Of course, the 53 cm torpedo tubes had to be changed to the "Package", and this was absolutely real.

It is of interest to compare such a frankly "budgetary" modernization of a destroyer (technical could have done a lot better) with the modernized BOD "Marshal Shaposhnikov" of Project 1155 ("Defective modernization of" Marshal Shaposhnikov ").

Modernization of the BOD "Marshal Shaposhnikov". Photo: https://forums.balancer.ru/

Table. Comparison of the hypothetical version of the modernization of the destroyers of Project 956 and BOD of Project 1155 ("Marshal Shaposhnikov"):

It is easy to see that the modernized multipurpose 956 looks much more balanced and more armed than the modernized 1155 project. Option "956 mod", with the replacement of only one SAM (ie 36 UVP SAM "Shtil-1"), but the placement of the second helicopter, while viewed more preferable.

It must be emphasized that technically, such a modernization was absolutely real, all the specified weapons were serial, there were no problems with supplies. Accordingly, "Burny", "Bystry", "Admiral Ushakov", "Persistent" and "Restless", and possibly the newest one at the Pacific Fleet "Bezboyaznenny" (1990), could find a second life. At the same time, the destroyers from the Baltic clearly needed to be removed, with the formation of homogeneous ship formations at the Northern Fleet and Pacific Fleet.

That is, for relatively moderate costs (the obvious cost of such a modernization is much less than what happened at Shaposhnikov), the Navy could get in 2017-2018. 5-6 relatively modern and fully combat-ready "first ranks" with the possibility of their maximum active use (including in the far and oceanic zone) for 10 years (until 2027-2028). Unlike ships with gas turbines (projects 1155 and 11540), new boilers and a significant resource of the PTU made it possible to walk intensively without convulsive counting of the remaining power plant resource.

Time, alas, is gone

And if the fleet is still trying to save the ships of the project 1155, then the destroyers have already put an end to them. Time for their modernization has been lost. Taking into account the fact that a series of new ships of Project 22350 has already started, there is no sense in investing in these old ships today. If we hypothetically assume that a decision will be made now, then its implementation, taking into account the specifics of budget financing, will begin no earlier than 2021, ship repairs will take 3-4 years (in fact, much more), i.e. ships will come out of this repair with modernization in the years 2024-2025 ... Moreover, the newest 956 was adopted by the Navy in 1993, i.e. at the time of 2024 he will be 31 years old. Ten years after an average repair is at least 41 years for the ship, but this already requires an unambiguous replacement of the main cable routes (which dramatically increases the cost and terms of repair).

A completely different situation was in 2014, when, with a timely decision, 4-6 destroyers could actually get a second life, and a very active one. Even "Burny" (in the Navy since 1988), leaving the factory in 3 years (2017), could well serve for another 10 years, until 2027, without any large-scale replacement of trunk cables. And this is even more true for the five newer ships ("Ushakov" ("Fearless"), "Persistent", "Fast", and possibly "Fearless").

Main lessons of the 956 project

First. The Navy needs, if not the most innovative, but actually working and effective technical and tactical solutions. The pursuit of a crane in the sky often ends with a broken trough.

Second. At the forefront of the development and use of the fleet should be real combat effectiveness.

Third. In a situation when the fleet sends relatively new ships to the park, the society has a logical question: haven't our admirals played with ships? Requiring huge funding for new ships of the Navy, is it capable of ensuring their normal operation, modernization during service and effective use in battle?

A decent death for ships

Well-deserved, efficient and well-served ships must go to patriotic parks. Ships that you can be proud of, like, for example, the Smetlivy TFR. This ship is really a part Stories (with a capital letter) The Soviet Navy, the great confrontation of the Cold War.

The same thing that was done with the destroyer "Restless" is stupid, not funny and shameful. At the same time, a worthy result of the service could be found for him.

Utilization of Project 956 destroyers in SRZ-35, settlement of Rosta

And this is not cutting into needles, but, for example, testing modern weapons of the Navy on it. And as an example here, we, alas, the US Navy, which does not just use old ships as targets, such firing has a pronounced research character, all reports on which, of course, the US Navy is tightly secret (with a minimum of details for the media).

US Navy SINKEX trials with the sinking of a Spruance-class destroyer

Such events have not been carried out in our fleet for many decades, despite the fact that new anti-ship missiles with a sharply reduced mass of warheads are being adopted for service, the issues of the real effectiveness of which on large ships are acute.

Last thing. Two fresh photos.

Two destroyers of projects 956E (modernized) and 956ME in the exercises of the Eastern Fleet of the PLA, October 2020 (source: "Live Journal" dambiev).

And the "newest" destroyer of the Pacific Fleet "Bezofaznenny" (adopted by the Navy in December 1990). "Fearless" at the last pier (October 2020).

Only one and older "Bystry" remains in the PF combat strength.

Do we draw any conclusions from all this? The question is open ...

[prapor55]

It's sad that, as always, the guilty won't be found.

[And Makarov]

But many who have made sabotage decisions are now "in positions", and not only in the Navy.

[Severok]

All pests, criminals from the authorities, traitors to the country's interests are always heard by the official media, always after another act of betrayal they receive orders and promotions. The most important pests are Putin, Medvedev, Nabiulin, Siluanov, Matvienka and others who have settled in Moscow as a legion. And it will not work to uproot this Caudle without a national movement, and yes, without violating the laws that they wrote so as not to get what they deserve, it will not work either.

[Charik]

and what to look for them, there they are all in directors and on TV

[antivirus]

to sit until retirement, and there the grass does not grow at least.
And the grass grows and the pension drips, and 956 is no longer needed

[mark1]

It was possible to save, but no one was going to save, openly sabotage activities were carried out. Let us recall the destruction of "Sharks", the leasing of boats of the 971 project, "Bark, drawing up completely unreal shipbuilding programs, such as 30" Ash "and, as a consequence, the curtailment of the construction of the same 971st Ave," Uran "," Onyx "," Caliber "- all these Soviet developments (yes, and the" Caliber "legs from Soviet times) were tightened as much as possible when put into service.

[Dante Alighieri]

There were a lot of options for upgrading the 956. In the presence of inclined versions of the ZS-14, welding work in general could be minimized, limiting itself to only embedding Calm cells. But upstairs it was not interesting, but some Mistral is another matter. And this despite the fact that, if desired, from the same Krechetov it was possible to make quite a decent UDC. True, they had already been sold by that time ...

As for the GEM, I would like to argue with the author about how truly modern the KVG-3D, implemented in the former Baku (Vikramaditya), are. Yes, at the end of the 90s - the beginning of the 2000s, it was quite a good option for introducing automation and converting the KVG-3 boilers already mastered by the industry to a new type of fuel, which made it possible to improve their technical and operational characteristics quite well. However, science did not stop there. In our country, the next generation of boilers of this type, KVG6, KVG6M and KVG6M-1, also operating on diesel fuel, but having even higher quality indicators and an even greater degree of automation, was developed, which made it possible to further reduce the impact of the notorious human factor. The only drawback of these units is their high cost, which is typical for all new solutions. However, as they "enter the series", the price tag for these products would have been further sequestered, and therefore ultimately (provided that during the modernization of esm. 956 and Kuznetsov, preference would have been given to these boilers), the total cost of the boilers was 15-25% (as advertised by JSC SKBK) would have exceeded the cost of a similar order for KVG-3D. Considering the need for parallel modernization of the assembly line by the enterprise, this does not seem to be such a huge amount. And most importantly, this is all that this enterprise has always been and continues to be on the territory of Russia, and therefore, in the conditions of inaccessibility of the power plant and gearboxes of Ukrainian production, this could become a real panacea for our fleet until the start of serial production of new ships of the ocean class (the beginning of which we still have not seen).

ps Today, the cruisers of project 1164 are in dire need of modernization, but no progress has been observed in this direction either (Marshal Ustinov does not count: he was essentially reanimated, radio equipment and jamming equipment were updated, however, there was no change in the composition of weapons, even target illumination radar 3P41, has not been replaced by a modern phased-digital analogue). So, I'm afraid that the entire Soviet legacy to one degree or another will have to repeat the fate of the esm. 956.

[KCA]

"Caliber" is a Soviet "Granat", naturally, modernized and with the possibility of using conventional warheads, "Granat" was only under the TABC

[Borik]

It is a pity that the destroyers were good. But the 90s without proper funding hit them very hard. And the main thing that killed this type of destroyers was the boiler-turbine installation. Perhaps if there were decent funding for the fleet, then a certain number of ESM 956 would have served until the twenties. And with the modernization it is also 10-15 longer.

And yet, the author here was a little mistaken with the destroyers that the USSR transferred to China in the 50s. He writes that Project 7U destroyers were transferred to China. But it never happened at Pacific Fleet 7U. So, the destroyers of Project 7 were transferred to China.

What is typical for such "yellow" publications is confusion in terms of "displacement" and "gross tonnage" (gross tonnage). Gross tonnage is measured in register tonnes. For example, Alisher Usmanov's yacht Dilbar has a gross tonnage of 15000 tons, a displacement of about 4500 tons, and a cost of $ 600 million. At the same time, the Russian frigate 22350 of the "Admiral Gorshkov" type has a displacement of 5400 tons, and costs 450 million dollars. The largest yachts in the world are owned by the sheikhs of Saudi Arabia, but their navy has nothing larger than American-built frigates. In general, such comparisons are nonsense. Yachts are needed for luxury, and warships are for war. 1 Soviet-built missile boat can sink the world's largest and most expensive yacht.

[Doccor18]

I can not calmly look at the rusting ships, which still walk and walk ...
Of course, it was necessary to upgrade the destroyers of the 956 series. And for this, since in the 90s there were no funds, it was necessary to put the ships in safe storage. It would also cost money, but not the same as in operation.
And in the fat-rich 2000s, it was possible with 10 of these combat units to be brought into combat form. With the replacement of the air defense system, the demolition of the aft AU and the construction of a helicopter hangar ...
But we are vigorously disarming ...

[tlauicol]

IMHO the very concept of heavy supersonic missiles has spoiled many ship projects for many years. As a result: limited ammunition and autonomy, modest air defense capabilities. In the narrowness, the island area and on bl. there is little sense in the distance, but it has not been decided for long distance.

[timokhin-aa]

It was at 956 that both anti-ship missiles were without fanaticism, and their reconnaissance systems for attacking NK were more or less at the level. On the NK attack, the ship was more than good.

Well, my dear Alexander .... since you are the author's confidant, you will have to write to you.
After reading to ...

In a situation when the fleet sends relatively new ships to the park, the society has a logical question: haven't our admirals played with ships?

There was no point in reading further. The article, like most of Maxim's articles, is an ordinary political profanation, which has nothing to do with the problems of the 956 project!

the operating time of the boilers of the head destroyer "Sovremenny" at the time of putting into repair (decommissioning) was about 25 thousand hours for each boiler. An even more striking example is the destroyer "Otlichny", which passed 8 miles in 150 years of active operation (for comparison: Peter the Great had only 535 miles on the lag in 17 years).

For example, Maxim licked this from the forum in the livejournal, but on the same forum the problems and the impossibility of further exploitation of the "Sarychi" are described in detail ... alas, we have a fight with embezzlers admirals, not with problems! By the way, Peter had a mileage of 18 thousand miles in 2015 ... but what does it matter ...

[Per se.]

Do we draw any conclusions from all this? The question is open ...

What conclusions should be drawn? The sad topic of the article on the destroyers of Project 956, but it could have been written about the boats of Project 941, in general, for many ships of our fleet.

To complete the 70%-ready Varyag (aka Riga until 1990), the entire USSR was required, as Chernomyrdin was told, the Chinese took the ship as much as
The Far East was completed without the USSR. This is from the category when a willing person is looking for opportunities, and not a desire for reasons. The Chinese found opportunities, the new government in Russia found reasons.

Reasons were also found for abandoning the Admiral Lobov (aka the Ukraina cruiser). Reasons were found to sell Admiral Gorshkov to the Indians, and, initially, for nothing, in addition to the MiG-29 deal. All this is accompanied by a bacchanalia in the media about the uselessness of aircraft carriers and, in general, the "land" nature of Russia.

Nevertheless, all these are consequences, and the reason is the surrender of the country to capitalism, and, accordingly, to the owners of this already world system. And no illusions are needed here, it is impossible to live in capitalism and be free from its laws, no matter how our bad guys in their new bourgeoisie cheeks in ostentatious "butting" with their masters. These laws were not written for the good of the colonies. A simple example, the eternal lack of money in our "poverty-stricken" Ministry of Finance, where our Central Bank, by law, cannot lend to its government. Therefore, - "there is no money, but you are holding on", while the Central Bank is buying American securities, dollars, gold, and in fact it all works not for the Russian economy, but for the IMF and FRS, that is, for the United States.

If money is the main driving force of the war and the entire economy, then, brothers, sailors, before complaining about our ships and the fleet in general, it is necessary to deal with treacherous laws for Russia and colonial financial and economic dependence, in capitalism picked up from the dustbin of history.

No, in the VKS, of course, a little better than in the navy, but this is definitely not for a serious war with a strong rival. All advertising actions of the authorities about the rearmament of the Army remind Potemkin villages - in appearance they are menacing and beautiful, dig deep into ... embezzlement, slovenliness and sabotage.
The main resource of capitalism is. They are trying to make those of us. And they try very hard.

[OgnennyiKotik]

Everywhere so. All of Russia Potemkin villages. I hope the Strategic Missile Forces retained at least some combat capability. That the ground forces, that the Aerospace Forces, that the air defense everywhere equipment of the 70-80s and Russian modernization of the Su-27 (30,35), MiG-31, T-72, BTR-80, S-300 (400), BUK, Mi- 8,24,28, etc. All this technique was developed more than 30-40 years ago, and then at least. Of the new in the army, only armored vehicles.

Complete repetition of 1853 and 1905.

[bayard]

As for the air defense with its technical equipment, I disagree with you - here the rearmament is proceeding at a good pace, but the density of the radar field and means of destruction as in the Soviet Union, alas, will not be there - for quite objective reasons. There was no such air defense as the USSR had in the world, and perhaps it won't. Nobody can afford it.
The authorities do not have a clear goal-setting, clarity of thought and firmness of will.
And about

everywhere equipment of 70-80 years and Russian modernization of Su-27 (30,35), Mig-31, T-72, BTR-80, S-300 (400), BUK, Mi-8,24,28, 30, etc. All this the technique has been developed over 40-XNUMX years

Look at the US Army - there will be much more old technology in percentage. Armored vehicles, artillery, aviation (the average age of the fleet), and there are a lot of old ships in the fleet. And taking into account the fact that the shipbuilding capacity and the pace of laying / building new ships in China is 4 (!) Times higher than in the United States, then with the current state of affairs, in 10-15 years the Chinese fleet will be equal to the American one, but at the same time there will be much fresher in age.
But in the strategic nuclear forces Russia looks much more interesting and confident than the United States.

[OgnennyiKotik]

Quote: bayard

The question is the quality of modernization. From the same Abrams and Bradley released in the 70-80s, nothing remained except the case. We have the best modifications of the T72 / 90 in ostentatious parts, for the rest of the T-72B3 / T-90A maximum. They wrote about the planes themselves. I don't believe in the effectiveness of ground-based air defense. Without a strong fighter and strike aircraft with a large number of AWACS, it is useless. A huge number of examples, a nod to technical lag and crooked hands, except for relaxation, causes nothing, we have the same thing, but on a large scale and against us, the forces will be completely different. The strategic nuclear forces are parity, but we do not know the real state of affairs, we can only hope for a good one.
For comparison, some of the weapons that began to be serially supplied to the US Armed Forces over the past 15 years: Aircraft carriers of the Gerald R. Ford type, F35A / B / C, Stryker family, MRAP family of armored vehicles, Bell V-22 Osprey, Virginia nuclear submarine, UDC America ", Landing transports-docks like" San Antonio ", MQ-9 Reaper, etc. etc.

Strong ground air defense is the strong point of the Soviet and Russian security systems. It is certainly difficult without AWACS aircraft, but they are trying to mitigate the situation with suspended radar containers - flawed, but still help. The lack of strike aviation in our country is always (and now also) is compensated by a large number of operational-tactical missile systems and long-range MLRS. And also a larger number of tactical nuclear warheads than the enemy has on them.
If the conversation goes without limits, there will be something to answer.
But no one is insured against treason - the Union was surrendered by the authorities at the peak of its military and economic power.

We will never be able to compete with the United States with the fleet, then for them another combatant arrived in time - China, and in fighter aviation, our fleet was seriously updated 4 + \ ++. But for the balance there is not enough AWACS and tankers.
In today's conditions of Russia, it is nonsense and impermissible stupidity to count on confrontation by conventional means with all available enemies. But tactical nuclear weapons and strategic nuclear forces equalize the chances in any given scenario.

It's a bit strange to compete with the Americans in missiles. They have assigned these tasks to aviation, with which it more than copes. There is no strong ground air defense from combat aircraft, see Armenia. Air defense helps only from Boeing and Ilov, as practice shows.

"How is this, your mother, let me understand?"
In the same Syria, the Syrian air defense on already outdated complexes showed quite decent performance - up to 80% of the targets hit. Another thing is that in those conditions there could be no talk of strikes against enemy bases and airfields, as well as of the defeat of the targets-carriers of the CD outside the state's borders, which greatly blurred the picture.
The Soviet air defense coped with its tasks completely - thanks to the saturation of reconnaissance, target designation and destruction means, when the fire capabilities of the air defense missile systems were reinforced and insured by air defense fighter aircraft.
Now in the Russian Federation, the air defense is of an object nature, and not the air defense of the country, as in the USSR, so we can only talk about the most threatened and priority areas, which are covered quite reliably. In any raid, the initiative always belongs to aviation - this is its natural advantage, but the means of over-the-horizon location and other means of reconnaissance make it possible to timely reveal the beginning of a raid or prepare for it, and, therefore, to take measures to disrupt, repel or prevent a preemptive strike. The best defense is offense.
And are you not suggesting to completely abandon air defense, following the American experience?
The Russian Federation, as the heir to the USSR, has its own experience, and it is very solid and effective. Russia (USSR) has proved the power of its air defense and its means in many local wars and conflicts, and these examples have long become textbooks.

It was built exclusively on ultra-long-range radars such as "Cobra-Dane" and the like, they did not have a radar field not only at low, but also at medium altitudes. If it were not for the oceans washing their territory, their radar control system would not be worth a dime.
They had AWACS aircraft, but they could not patrol continuously and mainly provided forward-based forces - in Europe, in the Northern East, Japan, and Southeast Asia. It is impossible to keep watch in continuous mode by AWACS aircraft for technical and financial reasons. Moreover, they had only 50 such aircraft for all (!) Theaters for everything. In the USSR, they also planned to build 50 A-50s, but only 25 managed.
The same can be said about the quality and, most importantly, the number of weapons of destruction of the air defense of the US Army - their quality was significantly inferior to the Soviet systems, and the quantity was insufficient. In terms of combat fighters, we had an approximate parity, if we count all the fighters of the Air Force and air defense interceptors of the USSR against the fighters of the US Air Force.

Which ones? 55 projects? They just sent it, after the descent for 2-3 years they are being completed at the wall.

This happens with all ships under construction - the completion time afloat and the set of acceptance tests, as a rule, always exceed the period of the slipway period. I'm talking about the pace of construction of such ships - now 8 hulls have been launched, in 2,5 - 3 years all eight ships will be in service and the same number will be completed. And in 10 years?
And after 15?
And after all, destroyers 052D are being built simultaneously with them, which have already been laid down by 22 pieces. , and in the ranks - 14 pcs. - an analogue of "Arleigh-Burk" with 64 UVP. Their complete construction cycle does not exceed 4 years - from laying to commissioning.
So extrapolate the situation - how many will there be in 10, 15 years, if the pace of their construction remains the same?
And I understand perfectly well that the ships are not yet the fleet, the called-up sailors are not sailors yet. That is why I say that in 10 years China will reach parity with the United States in its (!) Theater of operations, and in 15 years its fleet will be fully consistent in quality.
They learn very quickly.
And I have no enthusiasm at all about the growth of China's military power.

These are very, very old missiles, and solid-propellant ones, which, by definition, have a shorter warranty period than liquid ampouled missiles. Their avionics from the 70s are software on floppy disks ... utter antiquity. That is why now they are urgently trying to order a replacement for them.

Plus, the Americans themselves did not understand what they were doing there, and anti-war protests began.
As in the Union, by the way, during the "fraternal aid" to Afghanistan. (It's just that the USA did not secret their losses)
And the forces in Afghanistan were much more unequal (not a single air defense system), and behind the back were the USA (SA, Pakistan), which ... helped.

Any air defense system can be overloaded with targets, and the use of electronic warfare can lower the threshold of its stability. But the use of electronic warfare by the defending side is, on the contrary, capable of eliminating some of the targets by disorienting them and thereby increasing the threshold of air defense stability. This process is creative and depends on many components.

As far as I remember, 37 enemy aircraft were shot down by Iraqi air defense, mainly using anti-aircraft artillery and air defense systems with an optical guidance channel. All radars were suppressed by complex interference.
It was essentially the beating of babies - with a total superiority in the quantity and quality of means of destruction. If the USSR had provided Iraq with assistance, half of the countries participating in the coalition would not have joined it, and the United States and its allies would have been stuck in the sands of Mesopotamia.

The Afghan adventure is the fruit of Andropov's conspiracy with the finintern of the United States and England, a setup from an agent of influence. Everything there was complicated, muddy and everything was planned so as to rouse the people of Afghanistan to resistance. It was a country so friendly to us, in which, before the introduction of troops, a Soviet person felt as if in one of the union republics - the attitude towards us was so good.
The night assault on Amin's palace and the subsequent assault on Kabul (at dawn) by the Vitebsk division crossed everything out. It was not even an insult, it was a betrayal of the saint himself - friendship and trust.
The scoundrel Andropov with his owners calculated everything very well.
And they did it.
But the Union did not have a goal to conquer, conquer or plunder Afghanistan ... Andropov (personally !!!) launched disinformation about Amin's allegedly impending treason with an invitation to the United States with their bases ... It was a pure lie!
But our military and political leadership fell for this provocation ... and then just tried to keep the situation as it is.

Remember the peasant's question to VI Chapaev: "Are you for the Bolsheviks, or are you for the Communists?" ... It seems like a naive question, but dug the essence.
The Communists are Trotsky, Sverdlov, Bukharin and Co. , but the Bolsheviks are Stalin, Lenin, Bonch-Bruevich and their supporters. Some destroyed the state - RI, then the Soviet Union, now Russia. The Bolsheviks saved the state, won the civil war and internal party struggles, and built the Great Empire.
A super-efficient Empire.
After Stalin's death, the communists gradually returned to power and "broke the Country."

... Bolsheviks-voluntarists, who made the economy according to their ideological dogmas, ignoring the sacrifices and not understanding (through their "religious" prism) the consequences.

Why is the Stalinist model of the economy not to your liking?
Along with state (public) ownership of all strategic industries, there was freedom of entrepreneurship - up to 17% of the country's GDP was provided by cooperatives and private owners: sewing and shoe workshops and ateliers, furniture cooperatives and factories, hairdressers, private practice of doctors under a patent, even private (cooperative ) design bureaus - our two great helicopter design bureaus were founded as cooperatives on a state contract, they were nationalized already under Khrushchev, like everyone else.
Remember the Second World War, how some ... "collective farmers" bought planes, tanks, etc. for the army. Where could such money come from individual individuals (I'm not talking about collectives) to buy planes and tanks?
They could afford it.
They had funds for this.
This means that they did not live in poverty under Soviet Power.
Do not confuse the USSR under Khrushchev and under Stalin, these are two completely different countries, the standard of living of people in which was strikingly different.
Under Stalin, in the post-war years, an ordinary miner could buy a Pobeda car for one salary with a bonus and still had a month's food left.
It was in the Donbass, I say from an eyewitness of such a purchase. And I knew quite a few such examples of the past.
And under Khrushche, everything became very, very poor ... and the arbitrariness of the valentarists began.
Yes, those same communists.

The entire Russian village under Stalin lived as under serfdom, worked for "sticks", did not receive money, only the products that were grown and produced on the collective farm, did not have passports ...
The time of legalized slavery and poverty ...
Passports in the villages began to be issued after Khrushchev under Brezhnev, at the same time they began to pay pensions and salaries.

Do you really think that the collective farmer could not leave for the city? Get a passport there and find a job on your own? Go to college? Institute?
Academician Yangel was the son of a peasant, received an education, became a designer of heavy missiles, an academician. And from another village - not far from the one where Yangel was born, the Utkin brothers came out, fought, studied and also became academicians - one replaced Yangel as general designer, the other created a BZHRK for the Molodets rocket ...
There are millions of such examples!
What kind of slavery is there when education has become not only possible, but compulsory!
Or did the peasants in Ingushetia have passports?
The passport was issued either to a city dweller or to a citizen who travels and must have a document certifying him.
So the lack of passports for peasants is a legacy from the Republic of Ingushetia, which was obsolete later - when citizens became more mobile, and the presence of a passport became mandatory.
In the USA, too, not everyone has passports, they have enough driver's license. Or birth certificates.
And about the money for the collective farmers.
You probably forgot that the collective farms were called AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVES.
Do you understand?
After the harvest, part of the harvest was handed over to the state (in exchange for a tractor and everything that was needed for life), and the other part - in shares, according to the labor contribution - the very sticks.
If you want - sell your share, if you want - for personal use (feed the cattle, feed yourself). And the everyday life was communal - traditional for Russia, even pre-Petrine, and later they always lived in communities - the land was distributed according to the number of eaters (it was the land, it belonged to the community). The whole world was building a new house for young people or victims of fire, helping the widows to cultivate the land, to reap the harvest ... The usual everyday life of the Russian village.
Everything was familiar.
If only the chairman of some tyrant will be put ... But even such questions were resolved.
At one time, I talked a lot with old people who remembered those times - it was interesting for me to ask, to tell them. And in different regions it was - from Siberia to central and even western Ukraine and the Baltic states.

Have you read Solzhenitsyn?
There was a famine due to a poor harvest in a country that has not yet recovered after the war, but only millions and billions are the fantasies of scoundrels and manuals of Western propaganda. In England, when were the cards canceled in what year? Food?
And some of the miners went for a drive, who managed to buy through the window between the approval of the "Stalinist tariff grid" and Khrushchev's reforms. The first thing after Stalin's death and the cleansing of his personnel base was a sharp cut in tariff scales - people began to receive several times less.
I personally knew one of the sons of such miners, he and his father went to choose a car as a boy.
And then he rose to the rank of general, although he was the son of an ordinary Donetsk miner.
And his elder brother also became a general.
This is by the way about "Soviet slavery".
In the confrontation between the Bolsheviks and the Communists, they / you, the Communists, took the upper hand, so all the evil happened from them.

From 1 to 1,5 million ... "not clear enough ratio", "excess deaths" ... and other speculations.

Doesn't the fact that there were millions of wounded in the country who died of wounds over the course of several post-war years, and the peak of these deaths just fell on the first post-war years, does not bother you with any thoughts?
BUT ?
But a huge number of veterans who received serious injuries, concussions and undermined their health during the war died within 10 years. There are many. And the peak fell just in 1946 -48. ... And the poor harvest and hunger, of course, intensified this process, but they did not die of hunger.
And from wounds!

Don't speculate on such things.
They don't laugh at you "about the ovens of Auschwitz", "camps for former Jewish prisoners in the western occupation zone \ zones", where former prisoners were locked up in new camps, where they sewed clothes and shoes - uniforms, and then began to take them in an organized manner to Palestine ...
Without asking too much consent.
And how did you live there in the first years, until you settled down.
And that the concept of "terrorist" and "international terrorism" at that time in the WESTERN press meant exclusively Jewish terrorists who killed British soldiers and officials in Palestine and not only, blew up and disabled the engineering infrastructure in their territory of concern ... In the fight for the right to form your own state on that land ...
In Palestine then - in the late forties, it was also hungry. And it is very poor for the settlers.
The mother of my school friend was born in the Buchenwald concentration camp, but she and her mother were not taken to Palestine (maybe just because of a small child) and she returned to Ukraine ...

And it is much more objective.
As a child, I was friends with the younger grandson of General Borodin (from the Cossack troops of the Ural Army), who planned and carried out a brilliant operation to defeat the headquarters of the 25th shock Chapayev division, despite the fact that I myself am the grand-nephew of the divisional commander Kutyakov, who replaced Chapiliev in his post, friend of Vasiliyev Ivanovich. And this did not bother us at all.
He studied at a military university together with the great-grandson of the general from infantry Yudenich and knew / know the descendants of the officers of Kolchak's headquarters, received official telegrams signed by Beregovoy and was familiar with the participants of the Soviet lunar program (the lunar landing module did), was familiar with Khodorkrvsky and Mevzlin, and more before the collapse of the Union, and talked with Abramovich, it was my program that saved the leading industry in Russia from collapse and sale to foreigners at one time (1992) (although this program is known under the authorship of another person, but very respected by me), my friend was offered I was offered a place in Gaidar's office (in the Ministry of Industry, now Industry and Trade) and I was offered an interesting occupation, but we refused ... I saw many processes from the inside and many processes were a witness, although I was then quite a young man.

... And to refer to the food situation in the Volga region ... it doesn't matter there even today with the harvests - the climate, sir. Dry winds, dust storms from the Volga steppes, lack of precipitation. There, due to poor harvests, famine has been regular / periodic since tsarist times, until, under Soviet rule, more or less tolerable supplies from other regions were organized. And under the late Soviet Union, this region was depressed, and under the new bourgeoisie ... My friends live there (Saratov, Engels), so we regularly communicate, and this is definitely not an indicator on the national average.

15 ... 11 ... At the time of the start of the modernization program, there were 20 of them. And so much remained in the ranks and in storage. Who prevented from repairing and returning the airworthiness of the glider (since there are no new ones) to change the filling for a new one?
Only "embezzlement, slovenliness", which is the essence - sabotage.
And try to argue with me.

[3danimal]

These are very, very old missiles, and solid-fuel ones, which, by definition, have a lower warranty period than liquid ampouled ones.

Does heptyl have a longer shelf life?
It is rockets with solid propellants that have a longer life and safer storage.
The quality of TT matters, with this the USA was doing well, in the 60s-70s they were significantly ahead. Thanks to this, a successful Trident program was launched.

Their avionics from the 70s are software on floppy disks ... utter antiquity.

Interesting: to compare technologies of the 70s with modern ones. Remind, what information carriers were used in those years? Punch cards?

In addition, software was likely to change, as did the media.

[bayard]

Do you continue to insist that the missiles produced in the early 70s are in better technical condition than the Yarsy that entered service in 2009?
You frighten me with your conclusions.
No, the Minuteman is certainly a very successful rocket, and a big plus in it is that the TT in it can be changed from time to time. Thanks to this, they are still in service.
But as far as I remember, they did not change the avionics. Serve as is.
They would have been written off long ago, but there is nothing to change.

Quote: 3danimal

It is rockets with solid propellants that have a longer life and safer storage.

Do you remember the story of MX missiles?
How long did they stand on the database?
Why were they written off?
It is the technical possibility of replacing TT in "Minutemans" that made it possible to operate them to this day.
And the fact that they are still able to fly is more of a technical paradox than a systemic given.
They are kept in service due to the complete absence of any alternative.
And liquid-propellant rockets, if stored dry, can serve much more. An example of this is the "Stilettos", on which "Vanguard" is now being deployed.

[3danimal]

Do you continue to insist that the missiles produced in the early 70s are in better technical condition than the Yarsy that entered service in 2009?

And where did I say this? Read carefully: these complexes were very perfect at the time of release, it is incorrect to compare their electronic filling with modern ones. And they are greatly honored by the surviving combat capability and still good performance.
Americans, if you understand, are often quite practical (and even economical) in armaments: if something works well, they do not touch it (not forgetting about modernization). An example with Minutemans, C-130, B-52 aircraft, M-2 machine gun, etc.

The radar illumination of the border area and over the territory of the United States at low and even medium altitudes was below any criticism. From the CD from submarines (Granat) and X-55, they were completely defenseless if they missed the exit of their carriers to the launch lines (with a range of Granat and X-55 of about 3000 km.). They tried to rectify this situation later, raising the AWACS tethered airships. Not a very successful experience, as well as in our Kamchatka - winds turning the airship.

Do you have a case of relatives on the planes did not burn?
The USSR did not set itself the task of destroying the state of Israel, but patronized the countries of the Arab coalition. For us it was like now the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia - we created one state ourselves (the decision of Comrade Stalin), with others they are bound by allied obligations. This circumstance also helped you a lot.
At 82, you applied a new tactic and geography helped you. At the first stage, you had success, but a little later, emergency deliveries of air defense systems, incl. S-200 stopped the war. This was enough for us (just for us). We and Egypt at one time exchanged for Vietnam during a big deal, so as not to have crap from their initiative.

What is bad about this pace, it is linked with the development of the Navy, and with other programs. They are being built in parallel with 055, aircraft carriers and UDC, the pace of construction from bookmark to delivery to the fleet is 4 years. 4 pieces per year for 10 - 15 years? Good pace.
And they (the Chinese) are building / building a large number of frigates. From CD. Quite a few escorts. And the United States does not have frigates in a standing position - destroyers are chasing.

The result of the work of the Syrian air defense - 1 F16D, board 838, February 2018. All. Tell the Octobrists about the affairs of 50 years ago.

In Syria, we are talking about the percentage of targets hit from those involved in the raid, and not about the number of aircraft shot down. The Syrians are fighting more and more with your drones, KR and planning bombs. They are not beating you over Lebanon and Israel - they are not up to it now.
And the prescription on the maps of those was 60 years old, and maybe more (from the present time) - the whole post-war history of violations of the air border. Before the United States had U-2, they used the British for reconnaissance of the Canberra - because of their altitude - 16, 17 and even up to 19 km. the train was held. And the "Phantom" to Gabala in our area of ​​responsibility broke through, then it was the first in history to ram the jet Gennady Eliseev on Mach 1,4 and shot it down on the MiG-21 - at the cost of its own life. I took off from Kurdamir.
But after that incident, there was not a single violation attempt from the adjacent side. It was three times since our time (two with me) - a navigation error. But because the border cover was simply brutal, absolute control of the border zone at low altitudes, super-dense saturation with fire weapons, interceptors in operational readiness (MiG-25 regiment) and a Mi-24 squadron to intercept low-speed intruders like Rust.
Hyperbole about oversaturation, this is from the present bell tower, at that time it was practically the nominal density in the border zone. The low-altitude echelon was controlled without any A-50 by saturating the theater of operations with radar units. And this is in the highlands.

[3danimal]

But the same "Irbis", though PFAR, but in terms of energy, the AFAR "Raptor" and "Penguin" will be much more powerful.

I love such sweeping statements
Irbis has a power of 10 kW, Raptor radar - 20 kW.
The first forms one beam with which it scans. The second - maybe 1 higher power, 2 beams of the same power, or much more lower power.
Irbis - "power overwhelms."
At the same time, it is much better than the "Zaslon-M", to which the titles of "flying AWACS" are hung here.

It's Complicated. M-4A1 differs from the first M-16. There is a video where the AK-74mi M-4A1 is immersed in liquid mud. The first one wedges, the second shoots. All due to the presence of the last cover of the ejection window of the sleeves, where the (74th) dirt gets, causing a wedge.
The barrel resource of the M-4 is also greater; there is a test on the Kalashnikov website.
A number of firms produce versions of the Ar-15 with a short stroke gas piston, devoid of the shortcomings of the tank model.
And there is an adopted MTR (EMNIP) HK-416/417 with a similar gas mechanism.

ARKs proved to be a reliable and effective weapon, including in the South Vietnamese army, where they were supplied before the US Army. Stoner is not on the butts list, he did his job well.
And there are employees of the Pentagon and the Colt company, which.
1. They did not conduct full-fledged army tests of the product.
2. The soldiers were not trained, or rather worse - they were trained incorrectly.
3. Allowed the Colt to conduct even factory tests of rifles with commercial cartridges, and not with army cartridges.

These three decisions led to the Vietnam disaster. Alas, I have never heard anyone answer for this. Despite the Congressional investigation, hundreds, if not thousands, of American corpses, the press, the courts, democracy, and other seemingly difficult circumstances to sweep under the rug.

Where did you get this from? Do you think China will lay down the next aircraft carrier only after the delivery of the previous one? This does not happen and will not happen, especially in China. They turned on their printer and the next case will be laid barely having launched the previous one. And it was not for nothing that I indicated 10-15 years, during this period they may well have up to six full-fledged aircraft carriers (15 years) with catapults and commensurate with the American VI. Look at the pace of construction of their heavy "destroyers", and in fact, missile cruisers - there are already 8 of them afloat, and after all, the head was just sent to the running gear.
And you also need to take into account the fact that China will not have to confront the entire US fleet (including aircraft carriers), but only its Pacific part. And this is 5 - 6 units, including those that are under repair and modernization (in 10 - 15 years they will be very old).
Chinese "Kuznetsovs" with a springboard and without catapults can be regarded as training, but it can also be used as air defense aircraft carriers, for carrying out the boundaries thereof by 2000 km. from their shores. To do this, they will need coast-based AWACS aircraft, which China already has. They are actively working on an analogue of the Hawaiian for catapult aircraft carriers.
And it's not just about the aircraft carriers. It was about the number and quality of ships of the main classes, of which China in 10 - 15 years will be no less than the United States (destroyers, cruisers, frigates, UDC).
And in the end, the question is not which of them will have more of these ships of the main classes, but the quality is better, but that a new combatant has matured for the United States at sea, with whom we will have to fight, compete, fight.
The Russian Federation will take a modest 3rd place at this celebration of life.

Russia's strategic nuclear forces look frightening. Scary in a bad way. Yars will rot and yok.

Brad!
If there is anything to rot, then the ancient Soviet "Voevods", for the "Stilettes" have already been removed from service (except for those from the warehouse, on which the "Vanguard" is now being installed), well, maybe also the "Topols", which are actively replacing the "Yars" - the latest domestic missile systems.
Everything in Russia is just fine in this area - new missiles, new nuclear warheads - I don't want to fight.
But in the United States, everything is not at all rosy, especially in the ground component of the strategic nuclear forces - how old is "Minuteman-2" \ "Minuteman-3"?
That's it.
And the warheads on them have long expired - over 30 years, and this is not even a technical one - the physical limit for a warhead.
And there are no capacities and competencies to manufacture new ones. There is not a single radiochemical plant for isotope separation.
So it is not at all that the RF is "rotting". True, the Trident-2 missile is quite good, but with nuclear warheads there are exactly the same problems - by 2022 the last warheads manufactured in 1992 will exceed the maximum (!) Warranty periods.
This is a harsh reality, which does not exclude, however, that the US fleet and aviation are still the most numerous and powerful in the world.

That's just about the importance of AWACS aircraft, he apparently skips a deaf ear ... The effectiveness of managers is apparently measured not by the level of combat readiness ... Well, yes, we do not understand this "sirem" ...

Destroyers of the Baltic Fleet in Baltiysk. Waiting for Polish shells ...

Without exaggeration. Yes, the Polish authorities are stupid, but an attack on the Russian Federation would be a real suicide and the end of Poland.
In any case - we have no real reasons for the conflict - neither disputed lands, nor significant minorities, as in Ukraine.

The same Project 956 destroyers are a pity, because they are beautiful ships, the Chinese modernization shows that they can be used for a long time with an increased combat potential.

In any case - we have no real reasons for the conflict - neither disputed lands, nor significant minorities, as in Ukraine.

But there is the USA. And with the United States there are plenty of reasons for conflict, first of all, the very fact of our existence. It will be necessary for the Americans to make a mess in Europe and Poland will climb into the fire.

above all the very fact of our existence

And what is wrong with the fact of existence?

No, this is the driving force behind the expansionism of the Anglo-Saxons - the inability to accept the fact of the existence of other cultures as equal to them in status and independent. They just can't do it.
In the US, blacks are still depressed (although incomparably better than 30-40 years ago) for this reason - they are different, and to admit that they are just people with equal rights is a real PAIN.

it is more of an excuse than a reason. They are still a global culture, and all at least be similar to them, regardless of their own. Therefore, they do not have the goal of destroying what is itself "destroyed" by globalism. For such is progress.
The main thing here is the economy. To be similar in culture is basically the banal "live as well as they do".

The progress with blacks is very significant, and this is not a reason to attack the Russian Federation with the inevitable large casualties.

I see in this theory the evolution of Soviet ideology. Which many (including the military) swore to defend, but for some reason they easily abandoned it, as if it did not exist. But the friction between the USSR and the United States is largely due to the conflict over ideology.

Yes, there is no conflict over ideology.
The thing is different.
The most literate astrologer today has a well-developed historical theory. Which works.
In his opinion, Russia is an Empire. And the USA is the totalitarian twin of the Empire. Shadow.
The Shadow always strives to take the place of the Empire. But, there were no real precedents in history.
Only short-term tactical victories are possible. The empire always wins.
The lifetime of the Shadow directly depends on the Empire. When a country moves to a different cycle of development, the time of the Shadow passes.
Russia must in 2025, from the Imperial path to the "Jewish", that is, the European. These are synonyms. The time of the United States as a Shadow will be gone. Iran will be the new Empire. He will have his own, other Shadows.

The funniest thing is that the FORTY PERCENTAGE of whites in the US are descendants of Germans.
Another twenty-five million Russians. Irish, Italians, French, Poles, and other Swedes.
There are not so many descendants of the British.
As for the blacks, there are only 14 percent of them (and how many were there during the so-called abolition of "slavery"?), But they do not work, reproduce like rabbits, and live off the whites.
The reason is that they have not evolved into such a society. Their level is the primitive communal system.

[3danimal]

Before the abolition of slavery, the population of the United States was 31 million people, in the southern states there were 4 million slaves. Total - about 13%.
By the way, there are noticeably fewer serfs in the Republic of Ingushetia in 1860.

The reason is that they have not evolved into such a society. Their level is the primitive communal system.

We will find our like-minded people, our assistants and allies in Russia itself. Episode by episode, the tragedy of the death of the most recalcitrant people on earth, the final irreversible extinction of its self-consciousness, will be played out, grandiose in its scale. From literature and art, for example, we will gradually erase their social essence. We will wean artists, we will discourage them from engaging in images, researching the processes that occur in the depths of the masses. Literature, theaters, cinema - all will portray and glorify the most base human feelings. We will in every possible way support and raise the so-called artists who will plant and hammer into the human consciousness the cult of sex, violence, sadism, betrayal - in short, all immorality. We will create chaos and confusion in the government. We will imperceptibly, but actively and constantly contribute to the tyranny of officials, bribe-takers, unscrupulousness. Bureaucracy and red tape will be elevated to virtue. Honesty and decency will be ridiculed and will not be needed by anyone, will become a relic of the past. Rudeness and arrogance, lies and deceit, drunkenness and drug addiction, animal fear of each other, and shamelessness, betrayal, nationalism and enmity of peoples, above all enmity and hatred of the Russian people - we will deftly and imperceptibly cultivate all this.

We will find a way to slander them and declare them to be the dregs of society ...

But the fact that an incredible amount of Comintern scum was spinning around the FDR is beyond doubt, alas.

[frog]

Only the Comintern?

[Cherry Nine]

Anything, but the Comintern did the maximum harm and made it the farthest. In particular, in the social group "Comintern scum" I include Wallace, the vice-president in 42-45, as well as at least some of the members of the FDR family. There is evidence, including Churchill's, that these people posed as the President of the United States in the last weeks or even months of his life.

Where will you put Hopkins?
And, since we are talking about, how did these very "members" pass themselves off as FDR? Not for the sake of srach, curiosity only for)))

[Cherry Nine]

With each week that passed after Yalta, it became increasingly clear that the Soviet government was doing nothing to fulfill the agreements reached between us on the expansion of the Polish government, which would include representatives of all Polish parties and both sides. Molotov stubbornly refused to express his opinion on the Poles we spoke about, and not one of them was allowed to even attend the preliminary round table meeting.

Therefore, I addressed the President in the hope that we could jointly turn to Stalin in higher spheres. In the course of the lengthy correspondence that followed, the situation in Poland was outlined as the British and Americans had imagined it. At this critical moment, Roosevelt's health and strength dried up. In sending lengthy telegrams, I thought I was addressing my trusted friend and colleague, as I have been doing for all these years.

But he could no longer listen carefully to my words. I didn’t know how sick he was, otherwise I would probably find it cruel to continue to pressure him. Loyal aides to the president have sought to keep information about the president's health within the narrowest possible circle, and various people jointly drafted responses that were sent on his behalf... As President Roosevelt's life was running out, he could only exercise general leadership and give his approval to these answers. It was a heroic endeavor. The tendency of the State Department, naturally, was to avoid aggravating problems at a time when the president was in such dire condition, and to place all the burden on the shoulders of the ambassadors in Moscow. Harry Hopkins, who could have provided personal assistance, was himself seriously ill [550] and was often absent or not sought help. These weeks have cost everyone dear.

Well, the fact that in the States before McCarthy there was something very wrong has long been known. In particular, both sides willingly confirm that the Stirlitzians are scratching the atomic bomb, these are the same Stirlitz who in the 41st reported about German tank divisions of 300 tigers, and the atomic bomb that Truman did not know about, and I say not about Vice President Truman, you never know what he did not know, but about the chairman of the Senate Special Committee to Investigate the National Defense Program Truman, whom this financial black hole directly touched.

It is impossible to explain such a success of the Soviet regime with anything other than large-scale betrayal.

This is just the American tradition to keep a carcass or a stuffed one in presidents. They played like that with Wilson, with FDR, now they seem to be trying to choose a body right away so as not to risk it again.

This was not the case in the USSR, even under K.U. Chernenko. Still, collective leadership has its advantages. Late Yeltsin, maybe.

It should be noted that Mr. Churchill and his friends are strikingly reminiscent in this respect of Hitler and his friends. Hitler began the cause of unleashing war by proclaiming racial theory, declaring that only people who speak German represent a full-fledged nation. Mr. Churchill begins the process of unleashing war, too, with racial theory, arguing that only English-speaking nations are full-fledged nations, called upon to decide the destinies of the whole world. German racial theory led Hitler and his friends to the conclusion that the Germans, as the only fully-fledged nation, should dominate other nations. English racial theory leads Mr. Churchill and his friends to the conclusion that the English-speaking nations, as the only full-fledged, should dominate the rest of the nations of the world.

I repeat once again, it doesn't matter if Dulles said or thought, but all this happened and is happening, that is, it is the method of work of the masters of the world from the United States against other countries of the world and their population, this is the so-called mass culture of stupefaction capable of leading people to the Maidans of perestroika color revolutions in the interests of the us frs, to destroy national economies independent of the us, countries and their governments, most likely it was not Dulles who invented this, but Lippman, and he repeated it aloud or simply silently performed it at the behest of Lippman, it does not matter, it is important that it is and works

But the Germans have real territorial claims to Poland.
And there are no significant minorities in Poland, because the Poles destroyed these minorities: before the Germans, with the Germans, and after the Germans. And the Germans too.

[Constanty]

No - the Poles did not destroy minorities - the Jews were exterminated by Hitler and Germany, and the change in borders after World War II, the displacement of people and the loss of lands of today's Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine from Poland led to the fact that a significant minority was missing.

You're right. In the case of Germany, there are some territorial disputes, much more serious than with Russia - this is also another foreign nation, and the Russians and Poles are Slavs.

[unknown]

Learn the story.
It was the Poles who destroyed the "Jews". We started it before the Germans, very actively helped the Nazis, and then continued after the Nazis.
Therefore, Poland, the most "Jewish" country before WWII, became a state of mononation.

[pmkemcity]

add:
After the liberation of Poland from the German occupation in 1944, the surviving Jews began to return. On August 10, 1944, the Committee for Aid to Jews was created in Lublin, later reorganized into the Central Committee of Polish Jews. Almost at the same time, Jews began to be persecuted by the Poles [31].

Poles' reluctance to return Jewish property appropriated during the war and conflicts with the new government, which included Jews, caused numerous attacks on Jews - from November 1944 to December 1945, 351 Jews died from such attacks [32] [33]. Until the end of 1947, between 500 and 1500 Jews died [31].

The largest anti-Semitic action was the pogrom in Kielce on July 4, 1946, during which 40 Jews were killed and about 50 wounded. The Kielce pogrom caused a massive migration of Jews from Poland. If in May 1946 3500 Jews left Poland, in June - 8000, then after the pogrom in July - 19, in August 000 [35]. The authorities attributed the pogrom to the "reactionaries", the Catholic Church, represented by Primate Hlond, blamed the Jews themselves for the pogrom [000].

The expulsion of the Jews should, however, be viewed in the context of the general ethnic cleansing taking place in the country. The slogan "Poland for Poles" by the end of the 1940s. became not just an aspiration, but an accomplished fact. The process, which in just a few years destroyed the cultural diversity that had existed for centuries, took place in five stages: The first stage - the extermination of Jews, which was carried out by the Nazis, with the complicity of Polish anti-Semitism. The second is the persecution of Jews returning to Poland, which forced them to flee not only from Poland, but also from Europe in general. The third and fourth stages are the expulsion of Ukrainians and Lemkos in 1944-1946. and their assimilation during the special operation "Vistula", carried out in 1947. The final act is the expulsion of the Germans from the western regions annexed to Poland

Well, the Chinese do it because they can. They load alternative factories in this way, give load to specialized institutes, etc.

They have several advantages over 956:
- Own boilers + own control and automation system (made for aircraft carriers). That is, almost a demobilization in BC5 who wants to roll away from work has a minimum chance of ruining the installation, unlike the original 956.
- Sloppiness, perhaps, improvisation in China is highly condemned. As the instructions say, they do it.

And they not only apply the approach to 956, I repeat, here is a fresh 137. It will be completed as, probably, the second pair will go.

We completely rebuilt Shenzhen, this is one of the destroyers of the 00s, which you can't look at without tears from the beginning.

Boilers - a disgusting system. Which of our ships often went on long voyages? - BOD with gas turbines. Everybody in the world makes ships of this displacement with this type of power plant.
As for the "steam" - a heat recovery circuit is possible to increase the efficiency and cool the "exhaust".

[Vladimir1155]

Quote: 3danimal

a heat recovery circuit is possible to increase the efficiency and cool the "exhaust"

this is a difficult and not easily solvable task even for stationary thermal power plants; in conditions of limited displacement, this does not make sense at all

[frog]

That's what TUKs were on Atlanta. Apparently, the union was completely stupid. We were engaged in solving difficult and difficult problems that did not make sense. Although .... This also happened))

[Vladimir1155]

firstly, the efficiency of these fuels was not high, secondly, the cost of kerosene is an order of magnitude higher than the cost of fuel oil, thirdly, the degree of heat removal on the boiler is an order of magnitude more efficient than in the gtu, therefore, the heat of the exhaust gases from the boiler is much less than from the exhaust of gtu, therefore, to catch the low-potential the heat from the exhaust from the boiler is an order of magnitude more expensive than capturing the high-potential heat of the exhaust from the gtu, and the exhaust from the gtu is an order of magnitude cleaner than the smoke of the boiler, so all the heat exchangers there will be clogged with soot

[frog]

And what is all this for? You said that the task is just oh what. And not at all about the fact that in this case there is no special meaning in it. As well as there was no special sense in the KTU on Sarychi. But when did we have a sense and wishlist warriors interested in the military-industrial complex? Even without talking about rather strange Wishlist, sometimes. And not a single stump in this matter has changed, CHSH .....

[Vladimir1155]

The problem of utilization of low-grade heat in large CCGT plants operating on gas is quite solvable, although it is difficult, it leads to a significant increase in the efficiency of power generation.However, in conditions of dirty fuel, low power and limitations on the displacement of EM, it is meaningless

[unknown]

KTU was installed not only on the 956 project, but all aircraft-carrying cruisers were also with KTU.

[3danimal]

So I wrote "possible"
It is not on Berks. But there is an exhaust cooling system (for less IR visibility and equipment heating).
In general, we must rely on the successful experience of our own and developed countries. It was the series of patrol boats / BODs with gas turbines that were successful.

[Cympak]

EM pr 956 during the Soviet era were actively exploited and ran on long trips, for example, 8 OPESK. IMHO problems arose after the collapse of the USSR, when the plundering of the fleet began abruptly and the quality of operation of the power plant decreased. The Chinese have no problems with boilers. Gas turbines for the Navy, manufactured in Ukraine. Until the "red rooster" killed our "withers", no one thought to organize the production of turbines and gearboxes for them in Russia.

EM pr 956 during the Soviet era were actively exploited and ran on long trips, for example, 8 OPESK

They ran, but the most practical were the "singing" watchdogs and BOD 1155 with GTU. In addition, IMHO, our KTUs were not as reliable as Babcock and Wilkes.

Until the "red rooster" killed our "withers", no one thought to organize the production of turbines and gearboxes for them in Russia.

If the leadership of the Russian Federation did not agree to "annex" the territory of a weakened neighbor and support "Ichkeria in the South-East", Zorya would continue to supply gas turbines.

And what about Samopomich? So you can call any party "fascist", just to justify the television postulate "Ukraine was captured by foshizds." Where are they and where is their support from citizens?
Let me remind you, by the way, that the NSDAP in 1933 received no more than a third of the votes.

You can try to replace everything. Irons, washing machines, etc. GTU Zorya is still better in terms of reliability and resource, but it is always possible to reduce the requirements for equipment. Do not overclock too much, more often take repairs.
There was an example with Chinese diesel engines - it turned out generally sad. As I understand it, it was not worth bringing them to maximum power at all (EMNIP, I had to use the tug).
With Kolomna, I hope it will be better over time. The main thing is that there is no eyewash with regards to the characteristics of the products (the tug is not always at hand).

[unknown]

Apparently inaccuracy.

[Vladimir1155]

dear Maxim Klimov, he poses the question himself and answers it himself, I would like to add that the very concept of a surface attack ship is flawed in the conditions of the Russian Federation, but in the conditions of the USSR it was a mistake. there was no need to create senseless aircraft-carrying and attack surface ships conceptually and visually obsolete back in 1905 in Tsushima. A surface ship is too vulnerable a target, aging faster than its age, which is perfectly shown both by Uv Maxim Klimov in this article, and Uv Alexander Timokhin in his research and publications. It was necessary to stop at frigates 1135, 1155, and continue their development in the same tasks, that is, coastal PLO under the umbrella of coastal means and as an addition to convoy and fish protection, etc. functions. Now it is already clear that all the cruisers and destroyers are not needed, but if the former at least retained their image and can replace the ASW frigate with a slightly more powerful self-defense, then the destroyers seem to be neither to the village nor to the city.

[unknown]

Are surface strike ships obsolete at Tsushima?
And the battles of WWII and WWII?
Yes, and the defeat at sea in the RYaV was caused rather by the general idiocy of the Russian naval command.

[Vladimir1155]

Quote: ignoto

the general idiocy of the Russian naval command.

which consisted of many obsolete morally and technically surface ships with unusable artillery ... and a lack of combat training ... but how to place ships in battle was not the main mistake

[unknown]

In the days of the USSR, there was such a tradition: to underestimate the characteristics of enemy equipment, and overestimate the characteristics of their own. This is especially evident in the example of WWII aviation. The data of the German aircraft were shamelessly underestimated, but ours were overestimated, and in a very simple way: instead of the characteristics of production copies, the characteristics of the reference were given.
Similarly, but exactly the opposite, data from RYA ships are submitted.
For example, out of six Japanese battleships, two were outdated, with a real speed of 15 knots, three carried Garvey's armor (why is it that Russian ships with this type of armor are immediately recorded in insufficiently armored, but Japanese?), And only the flagship of Krupp's armor. But, at the same time, it had a construction overload of 900 tons (battleships of the "Borodino" type had a construction overload of 678 tons, that is, for Russian ships this is bad, but for Japanese ships - good?). Armored cruisers are another story. Their real long-term speed - from 15 knots "Azuma", 16 knots "Yakumo" and 17 knots of the rest, "British" and "Italians". This is at the level of modern squadron battleships.
Neither get away from them, nor provide proper opposition.

[Vladimir1155]

yes, I well know that in a number of parameters the Russian battleships were better, but they were fatally worse in terms of gunpowder and the type of shells, and they also lost due to the lack of real combat training in the Russian fleet. The main decision of the admirals was erroneous, they built a bunch of huge battleships, but there were few destroyers, it was the torpedoes of the destroyers that sank our ships, there were no minesweepers, so the first squadron was in the base, and why should the second go there if there were no minesweepers there either? it was the superiority in modern small ships that led to the victory of Japan, history repeats itself ... we have more huge surface cruisers than modern minesweepers now. the same stupid gigantomania of pink ponies who want something big for their vanity to the detriment of the unsightly, but necessary means of real war

At the same time "Zvezdochka" modernized the BDRMs and diesel-electric submarines of the Indian Navy (including teaching them to work with "Calibers" along the coast), opened a workshop for cutting diamonds into polished diamonds. But it seems that the admiral was imprisoned only for cutting the dough of both the Northern Fleet and Oboronservis, having been convicted of negligence ...

[Shadow041]

The overhaul of the Project 956 destroyers will be too expensive, since both weapons and engines need to be changed there, and the hulls are not ideal. What is a boiler and turbine plant ?! This is a hemorrhoid that needs frequent maintenance. Those who worked for civilian boiler houses know that boilers do not live long without water treatment and regular repairs. The diesel engine reaches the operating mode in a few minutes, the gas turbine needs a little more, and the boiler-turbine plant needs 30-45 minutes to go into combat operation, which essentially puts an end to the constant combat readiness of such ships. On account of the vulnerability of ships at the bases of Kaliningrad, I agree, so this is solved by transferring some of the ships to the historical base of the Baltic Fleet, to Kronstadt and St. Petersburg. Instead of spending money on repairs and upgrades of the 956, it is better to build new 20350s.

[unknown]

This requires serial production of gas turbines in Russia.
And the destruction of the USC monopoly on the construction of Project 20350 frigates.

[g1v2]

The project was definitely unsuccessful. Save him? Well then, it must be almost completely rebuilt, starting with the problematic power plant, weak weapons, and so on. 3-4 years for such an alteration, it's not even funny. The period of its reconstruction will be unambiguously comparable to the construction of a more powerful and modern frigate 22350. I think that the cost will also not be much less. Plus, we have a lot of where to rebuild them? In my opinion, the relatively budgetary conversion of 1155 into frigates is much better. Yes, after such an alteration, they will not become new and modern ships, but they will serve up to 45-50 years in a new quality. And then I hope that they will be gradually replaced at 22350m. It would be nice to modernize Atlantes, even on a budget, by extending their service life. Leaders will not appear to replace them very soon, and I have always liked the project. To spend funds, resources, man-hours, and most importantly valuable places on Sarychi, in my opinion, is stupid. The last three run off as long as they can, and then, alas. I hope that by that time the next 22350 will come. But it is not a fact that the Sarychi will live that long.

The Chinese put the production of destroyers on the stream. In terms of shipbuilding capacity, they are the first country in the world. They definitely don't need them. This time has passed. But the Indians could, but they will certainly refuse. You can try to sell it to Vietnam or someone else like Egypt. But such countries do not really need destroyers. Frigates behind their eyes.

Not much is wrong))) Initially, the Navy ordered fire support ships for the landing of the Navy, as he wrote, this is exactly what it sounded in TTZ, only then they added Mosquito and just a little bit. Neither PLO, nor artillery, nor strike (although the Mosquito was a normal weapon at that time).
In addition to the entire power plant, a steam turbine was chosen, because YuTZ was loaded with gas turbine engines for 1155, 1135 and gas pumping stations for the Urengoy - Pomary - Uzhgorod gas pipeline. And the capacity of the USSR was not enough for everyone, but the ships were needed)))
And the problem was not in the quality of l / s, but in its absence. In 1991, the USSR collapsed, citizens of other republics left the service, the draft was reduced. In the 90s, for one exit to the sea, we gathered a crew from all over the compound to the states of peacetime, in one week all the hold ones left for demobilization.
There were no repairs at all, there was no spare parts, no ASI was supplied, the bulbs were on one by one in the engine room, you can't put civilians, tk. on ship 127V)))

Wrong. Why then 2x2 AU 130mm? Obviously, the priority was to support the landing. A "medium-range" anti-ship missile system for self-defense is larger.

[Eug]

Goes to itself in peacetime on the sea AUG, behind it visually (or on the radar, from 18-20 km. - within the reach of artillery) EM pr. 956, AU 2 × 2 130 mm which are needed from a distance visual tracking, a couple of minutes after the start of hostilities, throw a dozen or a half shells into Nimitz and thereby interrupt the takeoff of the air wing after raising the maximum of the duty unit. Well, finish the case with Mosquitoes. Like after 18-20 km. those distances could already be directed to the mountain of steel ... I think so.

[Cherry Nine]

Quote: Eug

which is needed in order to throw a dozen or a half shells into Nimitz from a distance of visual tracking in a couple of minutes after the start of hostilities

Ugums. With a little clarification. EM cannot interrupt anything, he can only attack first. Moreover, in an absolutely peaceful time. Because in the threatened period, a huge AV will come off, leaving in the weather - it has the same speed, higher seaworthiness and cruising range. And at the beginning of the war by the Americans themselves, the buzzard will not tumble anything, it will take off first. Actually, this event will be the beginning of the escalation.

[3danimal]

It's naive. The distance is 18-20 km - this means that the 956th is being led, including the nuclear submarine. Have you seen what torpedo ships do with ships? And then there are EMs and escort cruisers, the SAM system of which is much more effective for working on a ship within the radio horizon (it does not miss).
Before the flight of the aircraft, the EM will receive a pair of torpedoes and a dozen "Standards", having died heroically (but ingloriously).
"Tracking with weapons" by a single ship made sense precisely from the position of tracking the location of AB, which could "get lost" and appear in an unexpected place. (Read about the teachings of their Navy in the Chukotka region in 1982).

Do not forget that the aggravation of the situation was largely done by our leadership, who "annexed" Crimea and organized "Chechnya of the 90s" in the south-east of Ukraine.

Yes, instead of torpedo tubes universal installations for firing torpedoes and torpedoes and PLUR "Vodopad-NK"

[3danimal]

Another drawback of the ЭМ 956 is the poor location of the helipad. As, however, and on the cruisers "Ticonderoga", due to the location at the stern of the AU (and the air defense system on the "Tik").
IMHO, it was necessary to limit oneself to one AK-130 on the nose of the EM, or create a larger caliber AU (152mm), which would increase the firing distance and allow (in special situations) the use of atomic ammunition.

[unknown]

On the site of alternative history there is a project for rebuilding Project 956 so that the helipad is at the stern. But, in fact, this is the construction of a new ship.

[fone]

So much water about this old stuff ..
Ships in the USSR were laid without calculating major upgrades, 956th one of them. The same applies to the armament of ships, no reserves for the replacement of launchers were envisaged. The beam launcher for the air defense system looked fine in the 60s, but in the 2010s it is as anachronistic as black powder. However, the Shtil-1 rocket was outdated, already in 2004 the potential enemy had an ESSM similar in range.
The author assures that the modernization of the destroyer would have been done in three years - it's just ridiculous. To replace the boilers, half of the superstructure would have to be disassembled. The optimal period is approximately five years.

[Most kind]

We do not need the Fleet, we are a mainland country, if we do something with a vigorous bomb, well, or a rocket, well, if the rocket does not fly, then there are Bashirov, he will lay a land mine, again, you cannot take cargo on a destroyer to Syria, there they drive the bpk, they more campaign, we do not make our turbines and gearboxes, I am certainly not an expert, but earlier in Khabarovsk there was a plant named after V.I. Gorky, there seemed to be good gearboxes for submarines, they riveted turbines on Energomash, daldiesel engines sculpted, the Far East could safely provide the country with ships and submarines in case of war, but it didn't work out, Chubais hit, we handed out all the factories and drank, if we bought everything, but it seems like money is not being sold, now state-owned enterprises such as spetsstroy have finished, then if we hire and buy something, but if they don't sell and don't go, but they go constantly to be repaired, then what will foreign contractors do in it, and if sanctions and they will not do it, and where will you get specialists, well, have you built a plant, and will you bring workers from St. Petersburg?

The fleet that remained to us after the collapse of the USSR was created for a specific purpose, for the tactics and strategy of using the USSR Navy and with the country's production capabilities. Even then, the choice for the 956 power plant remained with the PTU due to the inability of YuzhMash to produce a gas turbine power plant for all projects and gas pipelines
Now a different country, a different doctrine and economy is not "ice". Technology and production in other states (hostile through our fault and not ours, let's leave it in brackets)!
From the point of view of the possibility and economic feasibility of modernizing the fleet we inherited, there is no point in restoring the production of something that we will not use later. You can write a lot about the missed opportunities to modernize ships in the 90s, but the fleet was solving other problems - it SURVIVED !!!
Those who found this time in the Navy will understand me!)). Fuel for ships was given only for combat duty or critical exits to the sea. Ships that could not go to sea (for various reasons) were left without crew replenishment and without the possibility of maintaining combat readiness, they did not even stutter about repairs. It's sad, but true! Now it makes sense to build ships with a clear strategy for using the fleet and the inherent possibility of modernization. The time of the 956's, sadly, is over!

I would especially note one more - significant restrictions on shore power for turning the O&F ...
incl. and for "living" ships (in combat)

Why bother pouring from empty to empty? 1155 and 956 are marasmic nonsense, at that time, of the elderly Gorshkov. Ideal (the best trio in the history of the Russian Navy - 61st, 1134b and 1164. Had the potential for modernization. 61-would be reclassified em. Everything else is nonsense.
