The first corvette "Hetman Ivan Mazepa" for the Ukrainian Navy launched in Turkey

The first Ukrainian corvette of the Ada type, named "Hetman Ivan Mazepa", was launched. The solemn ceremony was held at the Turkish shipyard RMK Marine in Istanbul.

In Turkey, the first corvette for the Ukrainian Navy was actually completed, the ship was launched on Sunday, October 2, and now fitting-out work will be carried out on it. The ceremony was attended by the commander of the Ukrainian Navy, Vice Admiral Oleksiy Neizhpapa, and Zelensky's wife, who replaces her husband at all ceremonial events abroad. Both representatives of Kyiv said the necessary words, not forgetting to remind that this is the first ship that will defend the independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine.



In Ukraine itself, the ceremony caused wild delight, but the further fate of the ship is shrouded in mystery. The thing is that after completion, the corvette was supposed to go to one of the shipyards of Ukraine to equip and install weapons, but now there is no such possibility. At the same time, neither the press of Ukraine nor the representatives of the regime say anything. Like, they launched the ship into the water, well, well, soon it will begin to drive Russian ships across the Black Sea. And that's all, there is no more information about the corvette.

The keel-laying ceremony took place in September last year. In August this year, Ukrainian President Zelensky signed a decree naming the corvette "Hetman Ivan Mazepa" to perpetuate the memory of "an outstanding Ukrainian political figure" and taking into account "historical traditions" of Ukraine.

As the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Navy Oleksiy Neizhpapa stated earlier, to become part of the Ukrainian fleet the first corvette was due in 2024. From weapons, he should receive Harpoon anti-ship missiles, VL MICA air defense systems, OTO Melara Super Rapid (76 mm) and Millennium (35 mm) artillery mounts, as well as 12,7 mm Aselsan STAMP machine gun mounts. Anti-submarine armament will consist of a 324-mm torpedo tube or tubes with Murene 90 Impact torpedoes.

            It has not yet become part of the Ukrainian Navy, it has not been transferred. When it is transferred, it will be possible to test on it something from the list of anti-ship missiles X-35U, X-31AD, X-32, anti-ship missiles Caliber, Onyx, Dagger, Zircon, the same RCC Sharpness. You can use a torpedo, of course. By the way, the Iranians used the Shahed-136 against Israeli corvettes. There are options.

                    The USSR supplied Vietnam with much more weapons, moreover, more complex and advanced, people and intelligence, relative to the current one. At the same time, the Americans had the strictest ban on strikes against the ports of the DRV when Soviet ships were unloading (openly and openly) there. When incidents happened (for example, two Thunderchiefs on a free hunt attacked the port with the steamer "Grisha Hakobyan", a Soviet sailor died, Nixon personally apologized, and the United States paid compensation). But they could destroy missile boats with P-15 for the DRV right on the Amur and immediately with a nuclear weapon! What you are calling. Or not?

                        What's the difference on a global scale? Except well, it's us, but it's them? Completely different.

                        The USSR harnessed itself to the friendly DRV, which wanted to return the southern lands, and the United States harnessed itself to the Saigon regime, because they believed that if it fell, then the whole of Southeast Asia would be red, and this is unacceptable.

                        An analogy can be drawn - Russia harnessed itself for the friendly DNR, LNR and Russian speakers in the temporarily uncontrolled territories (Saigon Regime), and the United States harnessed for the Saigon regime.

                        You can go further - the USSR participated there not only to help friendly Vietnam, but also to bleed the damned capitalists, bring their collapse closer, arrange internal vacillations of the country, test the latest types of weapons in real battles with the main enemy, gain experience and claims for a new generation weapons.

        Yep, you got it right here. "There is no second Titanic, just like there is no second Mazepa.

        The Ottoman Empire refused to extradite Mazepa to the Russian authorities. Although the royal envoy in Constantinople, Peter Tolstoy, was ready to spend 300 efimki for these purposes, which he offered the Grand Turkish Vizier for assistance in extraditing the former hetman.

      Judging by NATO weapons, both the SRZ of Turkey and any Black Sea "brother" countries (the same Bulgaria, Romania, or at least Georgia) can be used to retrofit it.

      The ship is actually being built on schedule.
      As long as he is in Turkey, that is, he has not been handed over to the Ukrainian Navy, Turkey is responsible for him. Roughly speaking, if it is damaged / destroyed, Turkey will make a new one for its own under the contract.

      The thing is that after completion, the corvette had to go to one of the shipyards of Ukraine to equip and install weapons


      This is generally an argument, bury everything! The whole point of this maneuver was that Zelensky publicly promised work on new corvettes to Nikolayev during the elections. 2 ships were ordered, which are being built in Turkey but are finalized on the Ocean, giving work to Nikolaev residents (and those votes in the elections).

      Finalization in Turkey is easier and even cheaper. Pakistan, for example, chose this way, the only thing that will be screwed in Pakistan is the combat posts and the Babur missiles themselves (because they have a range of 500+ km). And there the air defense system is cooler (CAMM is the latest MBDA complex, and Mika is still old, albeit modernized).

          And in this color there was only one side number 27 out of 20 APIB. Gross Doln. Not far from Templin.
          For such a dispute, "Old Koenigsberg is enough" is enough, under the flags that he lowered to Odessa and will come. There "change clothes" and voila. How many times are ours both on Yo and on E under different treaties and agreements. So if he waits for the completion, then he will quietly reach Odessa. Like that drone to the Crimea. all the more it will be possible through Bulgaria, Romania through their tervods. The Americans will monitor the situation. And we will succeed as in the Kharkov direction, well, or as with Moscow, or the airfield in the Crimea. It's a shame all this, but this is how it happens wherever you look, everywhere you look, there are only joyful reports and reports, and at the exit, the green is walking along the Izium. Something like that. I don't want to be a pessimist, but facts are stubborn things. And what is not always in our favor.

            Yes, the 27th is the Su-17 M4.
            And as for the current situation on the fronts, somehow I didn’t notice any particularly “joyful reports and reports”. Rather the opposite.
            I remain a positive realist, expecting facts in OUR favor. If the facts disappoint me, I mean the ship, I will send you the designated cognac.

              Not worth it. I hope that I am wrong and he will either not reach or remain Turkish. So far, according to the reports, there is good news, but for some reason everyone is putting pressure on the negative. Not seeing a lot of positive and positive. Although looking at some of the actions of our authorities, there are no other emotions besides swearing (in an obscene sense). hi

      after completion, the corvette was supposed to go to one of the shipyards of Ukraine to equip and install weapons, but now there is no such possibility
      Therefore, the Turks launched into the water to start taking rent already for the storage of the ship

      Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Navy Oleksiy Neizhpapa

      Get hurt. Admiral without a fleet, accepts an unfinished ship without a future home base. However, if it is completed, then any NATO base will shelter it. The question is, can Russia immediately sink any warships under the Ukrainian flag? Or will they again play humanism, like "we are not like that"?

      Revenge for Moscow.
      For our other ships.
      For our sailors.

      Well, the corvette is 7 feet OVER the keel, of course.

      While they are drowning, we are "tactically retreating". Finished the game, the boat is good, which of ours are they ...?

      They could not go beyond the Euphrates.
      Idlib was not taken.
      Haftar did not really help.
      The Armenians were advised to cede to Azerbaijan.
      Now the troops have been transferred from the Kharkov region to advantageous positions.
      Half of the world strengthens the armament of Ukraine.
      Our gas goes through Ukraine.
      We help Turkey in nuclear energy and cheap gas.
      Our reserve of 350 billion dollars is stored in the USA.

      From all of the above, I understand that we are trying to help them, and they are trying to destroy us.
      At the same time, the emblem of the SBU of Ukraine is very eloquent - "we will kill you."

      Or maybe it's time to use nuclear weapons?
      Or are there other moves?
