The Polish Navy was unable to restore the combat capability of the only submarine "Orzel"

78

The only Polish submarine Orzeł (Oryol), project 877E, which remained in the country's navy, was completely incapacitated. According to the Polish media, the torpedo tubes are malfunctioning on the submarine.

The command of the Polish Navy was never able to restore the combat capability of the only Polish submarine still of Soviet construction. As it turned out, the submarine's torpedo tubes fell into disrepair due to prolonged disuse, the bulging of the guide shoes and O-rings that appeared did not allow torpedo loading. In addition, the torpedo firing control system unit malfunctioned.



Of course, a decision was made to carry out repairs and a tender was announced to restore the combat capability of the torpedo tubes. But no one expressed a desire to take on this work, although they offered 428 thousand euros for it. The application was withdrawn, but two days later it was put up again, and now they are waiting for someone to respond. At the same time, the Polish media have doubts that the repair will be able to be carried out.

The thing is that the entire submarine needs repair, it is necessary to overhaul the entire submarine or completely write it off. The submarine has been in service with the Polish Navy since 1986, and was last repaired in 2014. In 2018, the Navy announced the completion of the repair, while the periscopes, electrical equipment, and the hydroacoustic complex were repaired only according to documents.

According to the plans of the military, this submarine will be decommissioned in 2023-2024, before it was impossible, since it is the only one. Five Kobben-class diesel-electric submarines (German project 2002), acquired in 207 from the presence of the Norwegian Navy, have already been withdrawn from the Polish fleet.

        Reminds the Ukrainian boat "Zaporozhye". First, the silver-zinc batteries "went out of order. Where did they go, the second question." A couple of years later, they brought it, but it turned out that they did not fit. Then they disappeared too. Then the crew gradually began to melt. And together with the crew, the "ballast" instruments began to melt. In general, there is now an orphan, chained to the pier so that she does not plunge herself for the last time.

          It resembles the Ukrainian boat "Zaporozhye". First, the silver-zinc batteries "went out of order".

          Well, you are not directly "Zaporozhye" (U01) diesel-electric submarines of 641 projects, NATO classification - Foxtrot describe, but "Goldfish"

          The sense of bewilderment is - when is it on "diesels" instead of lead-acid batteries used silver-zinc cells ??? Moreover, such ancient mossy ones?

            Why so modest-lithium-ion. But in general, can you raise the chronicle of that time? I can, I have. But there is such an unwritten law - the main thing is to smear the opponent, and then let him be laundered. He will prove in the end that he is right, but the sediment will remain. Before you object, it doesn't hurt to check. Although this is not the first time I argue with you and have never lost an argument. But all sorts of dirty tricks from you at the same time with yours with the clone-Eye of the blatant-have heard enough. And minus all objectionable (and it does not matter if you are right or not), you do it dashingly. I check who is minus, I can do it.

              Answer to all objectors. From my archives from 2010-2012.
              "Something about the submarine" Zaporozhye
              During repairs on February 22, 2003, the submarine batteries were replaced. The new silver-zinc batteries were purchased from the Greek company Germanos SA. The amount of the transaction was about $ 3,5 million (18 million hryvnia), according to some reports, Russia offered AB at half the price, but they refused to buy from it.
              By the way, about AB, since pride did not allow the "samostiiniks" to buy them from Russia, it was decided to buy batteries in Greece for foreign currency. We bought them, but they could not be put on the boat - the terminals did not fit in size. And no wonder, because in Greece, weapons and components for them are produced according to NATO standards. And the "Six hundred and forty first" submarines were built in the Soviet Union (in the USSR they did not spare money for military equipment, my note). So the Ukrainian submarine Zaporozhye was left without batteries, the Ukrainian Navy - without a submarine, and the budget - without money. "

                Well, there was such a contract with the Greeks. But who told you, why did you decide that the batteries were silver-zinc?
                Indeed, even in 2003 (the time of the described history) it was already believed that the morally and technically outdated diesel-electric submarine could not enter the World Ocean and could only be used for training diving of personnel to a depth of 80 meters.

          Less than half a lemon of Eureka for repairing the TA and the firing system is very little. And even the replacement of the TA and the firing system is not the most important thing here. There, the main analog calculating device is integrated with the analogue CIUS on the old Soviet elementary base, which, in principle, cannot be solved without completely replacing the CIUS and all the old "electronics", that is, a complete modernization of all control systems of the submarine is needed, and this is millions of euros. ...

      Yes, no one will undertake repairs. Skakuas have never had such submarines, we are not talking about Belarusians either, but why does Russia have a well-known root to get involved with the repair of submarines of the hyena of Europe?

      for this work offered 428 thousand euros.


      For that kind of money, 1,5 new Varshavyanka can be bought from Russia))

        And who will sell THEM? Look, let "Zaporizhia" buy from Ukronatsik - cheap and cheerful.

          I was mistaken, I confused thousands with millions))

          Our Varshavyanka costs about 300 million dollars apiece.

          It's not a cheap pleasure to have submarines, even diesel ones.

      Let them turn to the descendants of the "ancient Sumerians"! They know what to do! :)
      They dug the Black Sea! To fix the trough for them is a piece of cake! :)

      It's probably easier to buy a new one. And cheaper.
      Than trying to make a new one from an old one.

      The only Polish submarine Orzeł (Oryol), project 877E, which remained in the country's navy, turned out to be completely incapacitated.
      Let the ukronatsik consultations, they certainly know where to hand over the metal. laughing

      Here is the answer. In your Ukrainophobia, you are ready to believe in any nonsense and bring it here, if only the spit in the direction of Ukraine is smarter. Mr. Connoisseur, have you even seen the submarine alive? And a few more simple questions. Dig through your "archives" and try to answer:
      1) How many submarines and what projects were there at the Black Sea Fleet at the time of Ukraine's independence?
      2) How much is left at the time of the division of the fleet?
      3) Where did the rest go?
      4) What other options did Russia offer?
      5) What was the condition of the boat at the time of the transfer?
      6) How are things with the Russian B-380 project 641B, repaired since 1991?
