Diesel-electric submarines Carrera
On September 14, at the Point Loma Naval Base (San Diego), the closing ceremony of the DESI joint exercise was held, during which the US military trains the skills of fighting and interacting with diesel-electric submarines. They are held internationally, since the US Navy only has nuclear submarines.
Traditionally, sailors from Colombia, Peru, Brazil and Chile take part in DESI maneuvers. This time, the crew of the Chilean diesel-electric submarine Carrera (SS-22) of the French project Scorpene stood out. The US military pointed to "outstanding performance during the exercise of the sailors from the submarine Carrera."
They successfully carried out two mock attacks on strike teams, working in conjunction with helicopter squadrons of the US Navy, and thereby demonstrated the enormous threat that Chilean submarine forces pose in battle.
- indicated on the website of the US Department of Defense DVIDS.
As noted, the crew of the diesel-electric submarine Carrera participated in the exercises for two months together with the American aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson (CVN 70) - the flagship of the aircraft carrier strike group (AUG). As indicated, the main task of the maneuvers was to practice the skills of dealing with diesel-electric submarines, which are necessary in the conditions of "confrontation between the great powers."
