Baltiysky Zavod received a contract for the construction of the fifth and sixth serial universal nuclear icebreakers of project 22220

The series of Russian universal nuclear icebreakers of Project 22220 "Arktika" will be continued, the Baltic Shipyard has received a new contract for the construction of two more nuclear-powered icebreakers. This was reported by the press service of the United Shipbuilding Corporation.

Atomflot and Baltiysky Zavod signed a contract for the construction of the fifth and sixth serial icebreakers of project 22220. Metal cutting for the fifth nuclear-powered icebreaker is planned for the third quarter of this year, commissioning in December 2028. The sixth icebreaker will be handed over to the customer in December 2030. The names of the future icebreakers have not yet been received.



The signing of a contract for the construction and extension of a series of nuclear icebreakers of project 22220 will provide a highly qualified full-fledged work of the plant until 2030

- said the general director of the Baltic Shipyard Alexei Kadilov.

To date, the Baltiysky Zavod has put into operation three universal icebreakers of project 22220: the head "Arktika", which gave the name to the entire series, as well as the first and second serial "Siberia" and "Ural". Two more nuclear-powered ships, Yakutia and Chukotka, are under construction, with delivery dates in 2024 and 2027. Project 22220 icebreakers are being built to provide year-round navigation along the Northern Sea Route.

The main power plant of the icebreakers includes two Ritm-200 reactors with a thermal capacity of 175 MW each. Its main advantage over other similar installations is its compactness and efficiency, as well as an energy-efficient integrated layout. The design of the reactors makes it possible to work reliably with the rolling of the nuclear-powered ship with an oscillation amplitude of 45 degrees and a pitching of 15 degrees. The service life of the reactors is 40 years. Performance characteristics of the icebreaker: Length - 174 m, width - 34 m, draft 10,5 m / 9,3 m, power - 60 MW (on shafts), displacement - 33,54 thousand tons, crew - 54 people.

A feature of the 22220 project icebreakers is the use of variable draft using ballast tanks. Double-draft ships can operate both in deep water and in shallow waters in river beds, overcoming ice up to 3 meters in thickness.

    They are built quickly, baked like pies. Is there one or two in the US? Canada has 18, so they are second only to Russia. And the rest generally have an insignificant amount. This is about the issue of competencies, a plundered country and leadership that is not invested in infrastructure. It's nice to read positive news. And here you can also deliver something from China and North Korea by the northern sea route and not drag it along a piece of iron for a thousand kilometers. Well, some urgent cargo ... especially needed.

        what would be something to cover the icebreakers
        - for the Arctic? this will have to be developed as a separate class (ice-resistant). It is possible to build something quickly only on the basis of small icebreakers.

            Greetings comrades hi I always enjoy events like this! Do you know what I remember? How difficult it was for factory workers in the late 90s and early 2000s. I was a schoolboy. And this was discussed in the family. After all, not only the salary was delayed .... there were a lot of things. BALTIC PLANT, ADMIRALTEYSKIY SHIPPING, KIROVSKY PLANT. It's good that they are preserved. They occupy huge areas in the city. Comparable to a regional city. It's good that these factories are working now good and what frames good they exist no matter what.

        Starting from the very first nuclear icebreaker, the possibility of installing weapons on it, in case of emergency, was laid. Especially now there are modular systems like Thor and Shell.
        The icebreaker practically does not go in open water, he has a place to work even in the summer, and it is far from the northern border with NATO to the ice ....

        It is enough to allocate space for calibers, and the icebreakers themselves will come down to launch missiles.

        And if they develop rockets as a caliber of different sizes, then it will be possible to insert launchers into different ships, and at least into cargo ships.

            Railways reduced everything possible. Luggage compartments were removed at almost all railway stations, container compartments were removed. Try to send, as it used to be under the USSR, cargo in a container to another region. It won't work without them. The entire transportation was taken up by various commercial organizations, and the price tag is appropriate. If earlier the trains passed through the Trans-Siberian Railway with a frequency of 10 minutes, now God forbid that once every half an hour. Buying a train ticket earlier is a whole problem. It was not in vain that they introduced reservations and purchases 45 days in advance, now there is a wild reduction in passenger trains and they still run half-empty.

      Our icebreakers ensure the economic interests of Russia. They bring money. And from the point of view of business, the Americans have no need for an icebreaker fleet, they only need a few ships.

      In doing so, they have Canada, which provides shipping in the northwest passage.

      US icebreakers are needed for provocations against Russia. And here the problem arises that the military budget is still not rubber. And if you have to choose between a warship and an icebreaker, then they don't choose an icebreaker. A specialized ship for dirty tricks - the Americans don’t pull such things, they crushed them.

    The situation in the world is developing in such a way that at least all large multi-purpose ships (especially dual-use ones) need to be equipped with a set of weapons:
    -SAM Shell - M,
    -76mm gun mount,
    - anti-sabotage grenade launchers - 12,7mm machine guns ....
    The number of warships in the fleets is such that you can count on the fingers of your hands and the forces to cover the bases of the fleet, ports and civilian ships are clearly not enough.
    If there are weapons and a platoon of marines on board, the same icebreakers will cover themselves and the caravan of ships that they lead through the ice from helicopters and sabotage groups at least.

    Icebreakers are an extremely necessary thing, but even more important is the construction of a fleet of ice-class transport ships, because it is they who carry cargo and earn money. The icebreaker will clear the fairway, but a piece of ice floe on the side of the transport is highly undesirable. In addition, ships still need increased autonomy, because there are few bases serving along the Northern Sea Route.

    The leader did not advance further than the mortgage section, it was decided to shelve him. The cost of the project has exceeded 200 billion, the deadlines have gone beyond 2030, so it was decided to build two serial ones. Do not forget that it was planned for a series of 15 gas carriers for Novatek, which were canceled by South Korea. There is no cargo fleet for year-round navigation from west to east, charter foreign gas carriers categorically do not want to go east along the NSR from November to May (after a test flight), so plans have changed.
