In Poland: The moment of removing the flag on the last Cobben class submarines of the Polish Navy is inexorably approaching

27

In Poland, the process of decommissioning Cobben-class submarines is nearing completion. Today it is reported that two tugboats Rhino G-01 and Rhino G-02 have towed the ORP Bielik submarine belonging to this class from the Gdansk shipyard to the port of Gdynia.

It is reported that the ORP Bielik submarine is likely to be cut for scrap in Gdynia.



The final withdrawal of submarines ORP Bielik and ORP Sęp of the Kobben class from the Polish naval forces is carried out on the basis of an agreement dated February 16 this year. The agreement prescribes the allocation of approximately 1 million zlotys (19,6 million rubles) for the "decontamination" of submarines. This term is used by the Polish media.

Sunlight 2X38ST10A batteries were removed from submarines, cooling systems and power consumption control systems were dismantled.

At the shipyard, work was carried out to turn off automatic fire extinguishing systems, empty oxygen cylinders, dismantle the on-board water supply system, internal lighting, etc.

Polish columnist Andrzej Nitka:

The moment of lifting the flag on the last Cobben class submarines of the Polish Navy is approaching inexorably. Their corps will be transferred to the Military Property Agency.




For your information:

The Kobben class submarines are actually an upgraded version of the German Type 205 submarines.
These submarines were originally built for the Norwegian Navy. Then some of them were transferred to Poland. ORP Bielik - Svenner submarine built in 1967. ORP Sęp - Skolpen submarine built in 1966. They were in the Polish Navy from 2002-2003.

      Poland is gradually turning into an agrarian Ukraine, although there are more and more slaves on the plantations ..
      Soon they will begin to drag by the forelocks and drive in the direction of Russia out of anger.
      They say the lords are ferocious steel !!!! And they even beat gastrobeiters from Ukraine. And they rush about with cries of "Ukraine tse Europe".
      .Russia is watching and silent !!! Everything goes according to plan hi

        Polish furniture exports in 2019 amounted to $ 11,0 billion, slightly less than Russia's arms exports - $ 13,0 billion. Moreover, it is known that the Russian Federation sells some of its weapons on "credit"! Poland can afford to buy a submarine, there is enough money! GDP per capita of Poland is $ 15,9 million, and from the Russian Federation $ 11,6 million.

          Easy to update. After:
          1. The Air Force will be updated.
          2. Will update CB.
          3. Will buy air defense, radar, electronic warfare.
          And they will have to take all this at exorbitant prices abroad, and even from expensive manufacturers. In contrast to the Russian Federation, where, in the first place, its own, in the second, it is traditionally cheaper.

          Why didn't they update the fleet before? They have only one Warsaw woman who is not working. Whether she can dive is a moot point. One decent corvette, one IPC, four ancient RCA without air defense. Oh yeah, two rare Perry, no rockets.
          They will start buying right tomorrow. I wonder where to start?

          Is it time to go to the Polish embassy to surrender? ))))
          You are writing this to the Ukrainian Chubaty Bandera ...
          And Poland for us is already a territory! wink

          Problems with the adding machine?
          With a GDP of more than $ 10 million per capita, the poorest would have a three-story mansion with a tennis court and a swimming pool ...

            Judging by a couple of minuses, someone else has problems with the adding machine too.
            For Vadik Marusev and his associate, I explain that GDP per capita, so far, for all countries is measured in THOUSANDS of dollars. So far, no one dares to dream of a GDP of millions of dollars per capita.
            For example.
            GDP in 2020 per capita at purchasing power parity for Russia is $ 25,5 thousand, for Poland is $ 29 THOUSAND. Germany has $ 50,6 thousand, Ukraine has $ 8,7 thousand.

          Well, what does he not buy? Especially in light of the "threat" from Russia? Wow, such a rich and developed Poland, but, for some reason, old tanks are going to the new division, not otherwise some purely Polish cunning. they live richer than us because they spend less on weapons, but they will start the same way as we will then slide below ours and no furniture will help.

      Already ... For the restoration of Varshavyanka, the only "hand of Moscow" does not give spare parts, then Putin is to blame. The Germans will throw them some more rubbish. And so Akim died and to hell with him

    OkhnichYesi - built in 66-67! They have already taken them from the Swedes for 40 years!
    And before these Scandinavian troughs at the pshek, they had Soviet submarines of the 50s or what?
    Well done, these pedarians of capitalist production are still riveting Mi-2 and An-2, only with a nuance - if the maize operator of our DOSAAFA has a domestic engine, then we sort it out, and if the Pshekov one is not repairable (the guys from our flying club recently encountered this), and we are all driving a wave to the Chinese "for iron"

    They will ask the owners for handouts to protect them from Russia, and they will give them junk as usual. Where where, but here the Poles will not outwit everyone). America has only one minus, they seem to be all atomic, so they can only help with a loan, in the purchase of a German or Scandinavian bu

    Apparently, not only this is inexorably approaching. It is not for nothing that Polish politicians are almost on their knees begging the United States to send in as many troops as possible, to install air defense systems ... Under the cover of the Americans, with a light heart, you can continue to bark at Russia and hug the Baltic nedobitki and Banderaites.

    Doesn't Polyakhia want to give them to uk-roine? This will add victorious reports in the fairy tales of the admirals're coming out of the "strength and power" of their fleet, and its total superiority over all the fleets of Russia. ..

    Poland's main weapon is refined Russophobia. so they don't need submarines anyway, they only distract from the tireless struggle with Russia.

    Well, this is the vaunted NATO help in the form of troughs that have unwound the resource at the price of scrap metal, with an unprecedented generosity fed into the form of an attraction. although I am sure the Poles even paid money for them at one time.
    it's like frigates of the coast guard oliver hazard perry for ukraine, rubbish, but even then not free)))

    I worked in Holland with the Poles in the same warehouse. Normal people. They earn not bad and live normally. Comparing the Pskov region with Poland is well far from them.
