"The most modern submarine in the world": Sweden expands the combat potential of the promising submarine A26 Blekinge

29

On August 27, Saab received another tranche from the Swedish Ministry of Defense to continue the development and production, as well as to further expand the combat potential of two submarines of the promising A26 Blekinge project. The amount of payments was $ 600 million.

Saab is currently building the world's most advanced conventional submarine. The new capabilities to be added to the A26 will, among other things, give an additional advantage in the weapon system and stealth technology.

- said the head of the Swedish company.



In June 2015, Sweden ordered work on the creation of a new A26 class submarine Blekinge ["Blekinge" - historical province in southern Sweden], which is said to be specially adapted to the needs of the Swedish fleet... Deliveries of two submarines are planned for 2027 and 2028.

The ability to build submarines places Sweden among the few countries in the world with the ability to develop advanced submarines. The Swedish submarine is one of the most economical and modern on the market.

- explained in Saab.

The new submarines will have a displacement of 2400 tons and a length of 63 meters. The diesel-electric engine will provide a top speed of about 20 km / h and a cruising range of 6500 miles.


What parameters allow the Swedish side to talk about the submarine as the most modern is not clear.

    Well, by no means can the newest submarine be called effective on propeller-driven propellers.

      Diesel-electric motor is incorrect. Diesel-electric boat and the engine is either diesel or electric. Both motors can be tied to a common propeller shaft. Or only the electric motor, and the diesel generator supplies it with petarity. There is no alternative to screws yet. The same water cannon with a propeller inside. Here is a direct flow. water, nuclear, jet engine was viewed by our big heads. Perhaps in the future it will be.

        You are talking about power plants that are the drives of the propulsion device. But a screw is a device that determines all energy interactions with the external environment, namely water. But water has variable energy parameters determined by the same PL speed. This means that by increasing the speed of the submarine, we must ensure the energy balance of energy consumption on the drive in order to provide the required speed, and which is provided by the propeller .. I'm not talking about the noise from cavitation, which means that it is impossible to have extended parameters of the rotational speed of the propellers. I'm not talking about the amount of fuel needed to support sailing. Therefore, having changed the concept and principle of the propulsion unit, it becomes a more efficient converter of the energy that Water carries. Water becomes a source of energy for effective body movement or LP. The same principle is used at VNEU. The screws, and I will repeat myself many times, do not ensure the use of the fundamental properties of Water in the algorithms for its transformation when changing the flow rate in the device that transforms it. And in fact, the problem is not inherent in the mover, but in the mathematical model that allows you to work with big data, taking into account the transformation processes in the space of interacting components.

        Hello old!
        Why is it not correct?
        Scheme: Diesel-Generator-GED ... There would be another drive instead of a diesel engine, they would call it Turbo-electric ... laughing
        PS Surface ships were called, for example: turbo-electric ship "I. Stalin".
        And the performance characteristics were quite decent:
        Displacement - 7500 tons (deadweight 3219 tons), carrying capacity 1272 tons. Passenger capacity 512 people, crew - 108 people. Overall length of the vessel is 135,7 m (along the cargo waterline - 130,9, between perpendiculars 127,2 m), maximum width - 18,6 m, draft - 6,35 m. Number of decks - 7, total area of ​​three cargo holds - 2380 m².

            In the internet they write that 18 VPUs for Tomahawks can be put on these submarines. A lot, however ...
            The speed is 20 knots, of course. hi

            A submarine of this type can accommodate up to 35 commandos and passengers.

      I am not an expert in shipbuilding. But if the Swedes make a boat, as they did their Volvo and Saabs, then that's great. True, Volvo with real Swedish quality was available until 2002-2008.

        If the boat will have a speed not of 20 knots, but 20 km / h, as in the article, then let it crawl. About VNEU, too, not a word ... and what's wrong with this boat? Let's wait for the details.

          The Swedes were drawn to the "strawberry". They want to seriously pout their lips, threaten Peter ... Therefore, they plan to arm the A26 with "axes" ... And this is already serious: this is already a threat to coastal targets deep in enemy territory. And these objects can be nuclear power plants, arsenals with RO, and command and control centers ...

          Only in Severodvinsk do not tell about it. Get upset.
          And what did the Swedes also start doing nuclear-powered ships? Or do you think that the Swedes from 2 A26 "anti-submarine fence" as much as the entire North Atlantic will put up and will not allow the 885 to go out into the ocean?
          And then, by the 30th year, if they introduce her into the PG forces, it will be good ... But by this time, we "can be a thread" will be honored ...

      Is it easier for you to sleep like this when you think that if they steal from us, they steal everywhere? Let me ruin your mood, for example, in the states, the traffic police do not take bribes. From the word at all.

If you are talking about Johnson's law, then it does not work, because not legalized by "fart". At one time it was all about cameras, but that time has passed - "liners" began to control cameras.

          Yes, there are certain mechanisms that sometimes allow you to remove or reduce written records and violes, but this cannot be called bribes ...

    If it is not clear, why undertake to write a note? Maybe you should first figure it out, compare the known parameters of existing submarines, then knock on the keys?
