Indian aircraft carrier finally turned into expensive long-term construction

72
Indian television station NDTV reported that the Indian Ministry of Defense decided to send a request to the government to allocate additional 2000 crores (20 billion rupees, or about $ 363 million) to pay for the overrun during the first stage of the construction of the national aircraft carrier IAC (Indigenous Aircraft Carrier). This decision was made as a result of a discussion of the construction of IAC at 20 in November 2012 at a meeting chaired by the Minister of Defense of India AK. Anthony.

The ship with a standard displacement of 40 thousand tons, which is expected to be called Vikrant, is being built from 2008 year at the state shipbuilding enterprise Cochin Shipyard Limited (CSL) in Cochin.

Previously A.K. Anthony stated in parliament that the IAC construction program is progressing at a time lag of at least five years and that the ship will be ready no earlier than 2018 of the year instead of the originally planned date (2014 of the year). At the November 20 meeting, the Minister of Defense of India demanded that the CSL shipyard finally set the date for the delivery of the aircraft carrier.

Sources told NDTV that the cost of the first stage of aircraft carrier construction, which was planned for 2003 crores (3200 billion rupees, or about $ 32 million at the then rate), for the 700 budget, increased due to delays. At the first stage of construction, the shipyard was supposed to bring the weight of the ship's hull to 18 thousand tons, but so far the hull mass is only 14 thousand tons. The total cost of building an IAC aircraft carrier is now estimated from 14 to 18 thousand crore (from 140 to 180 billion rupees, or from 2,54 to 3,27 billion dollars).

    The fact that India is able to build aircraft carriers is already a hyper step in the development of the country, and ours will develop a concept only by the year 20! Hurry, you have to hurry very much!

        Well, they do the same, albeit with great difficulties. Therefore, our delays in the alteration of Gorshkov are treated with understanding and tolerance so far.
        But for now we can only build frigates for ourselves. And then piece by piece.

          For reference: not a single frigate has been built in Russia for the needs of its own Navy. We build corvettes, small artillery and missile boats, anti-sabotage boats, and even then "a teaspoon per hour." Almost like an Indian aircraft carrier.

        I was at joint exercises, and on a business trip there, they can do a lot, and are growing by leaps and bounds, and our T-90s are already almost self-produced, albeit of lower quality, but this is engineering experience, and even 10 years ago they were of military designation let out nothing!

                What we do (or how loudly we say BUILDING) is not something breakthrough. Nothing is new in shipbuilding, tank building. Controversial Armata project, with a bunch of flaws. Projects that cannot reach the stocks in any way. 1,5 built corvette. So at this rate, the Indians will simply trample us on their T90s. We have over-promising T72s in service until now (by the way, according to plans, they will be converted from 20 to 50 pieces at UVZ into "Slingshot". But T90s will be driven by 100 pieces a year for export. I prefer poke neighbors, watch and compare with what we have going on.

          “The Vimanika Shastra was first published in Sanskrit in 1943. Three decades later, it was translated into English by the director of the International Academy for Research in Mysore, India, JR Josier, and was published in 1979 in India.
          The Vimanika Shastra contains numerous references to the works of 97 ancient scientists and experts on the construction and operation of aircraft, materials science, meteorology.
          The book describes four types of aircraft (including those that could not catch fire or crash) - Rukma Vimana, Sundara Vimana, Tripura Vimana and Shakuna Vimana. The first of them had a conical shape, the configuration of the second was rocket-like: "Tripura Vimana" was three-tiered (three-story), and on its second floor there were cabins for passengers, this multi-purpose vehicle could be used for both air and underwater travel; "Shakuna Vimana" looked like a big bird. All aircraft were made of metals. Three types of them are mentioned in the text: "somaka", "soundalika", "maurthvika", as well as alloys that can withstand very high temperatures. In addition, Vimanika Shastra gives information on 32 main parts of aircraft and 16 materials used in their manufacture, absorbing light and heat. The various instruments and mechanisms on board the vimaana are most often called yantra (machine) or darpana (mirror). Some of them resemble modern television screens, others are radars, and still others are cameras; apparatuses such as generators of electric current, absorbers of solar energy, etc. are also mentioned.

      Before posting any nonsense, master the topic ... "Ours", unlike the Indians, have already built these aircraft carriers. If you remember, one of them was sold to the same Indians and is now being rebuilt in accordance with their wishes. And the Hindus, whose society is still divided into castes such as the Brahmans and the untouchables, have never built anything like that, do not build, and, apparently, will not be able to build ..

    The first-born - aircraft-carrying cruiser "Kiev" impressed with its size. The ship had a height of 27-storey building, which housed about 4000 rooms, including 50 showers, several wardrooms and dining rooms. To provide the cruiser, 12 different pipelines and 138 km of electric cables were needed. Someone calculated that it would take more than 2,5 days to go around this giant along all corridors and visit each room for at least one minute. TAKR built 169 factories and enterprises of the USSR.

    After launching the cruiser “Kiev”, the second TAKR Minsk, the third Novorossiysk, the fourth Baku (Admiral Gorshkov) and the fifth TAKR of project 1143.5 Tbilisi were subsequently renamed “Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Kuznetsov”, which preferred the promising Su-27 and MiG-29 fighters with conventional take-off and landing. For this, a springboard was mounted on the aircraft carrier “Tbilisi”, and the displacement was increased to 55000 tons. Laid on September 1, 1982, the ship opened a new third stage in the creation of the carrier fleet. The construction of a full-fledged aircraft carrier was immediately noticed in the west. Before retiring, Navy Commander-in-Chief Sergei Gorshkov managed to get a government decision to lay another ship of Project 1143.5 aircraft carrier "Varyag". The ship was built rapidly and three years later in December 1988, it was launched. The seventh Takr Ulyanovsk was planned to be equipped with a nuclear power plant. By this time, the Soviet fleet had already gained experience in operating the Lenin and Arctic Arctic nuclear submarines. The aircraft carrier "Ulyanovsk" was laid down in Nikolaev in 1988. The project of this ship was distinguished by revolutionary solutions - it had a displacement of 75000 tons and the most powerful power plant at 1200 MW. This made it possible to place two catapults on the ship and 1,5 times more aircraft of 70 units, including long-range radar detection and guidance aircraft. Apart from supersonic missiles, firepower was supplemented by armor.

    The aircraft carrier cruiser is the most versatile and most powerful weapon to date. 40 ship fighters can repel the strike of two enemy aircraft carriers at once. Destroy 100 air targets within a radius of 500 km.

    Unfortunately, all Soviet aircraft carrying ships found their refuge in China as tourist attractions. A museum of the Soviet fleet was built on the basis of TAKR Minsk. At the enterprises of India TAKR "Moscow" and "Leningrad" were cut.

    In 2004, TARK Admiral Gorshkov was sold to India. Its modernization is carried out according to the documentation of the Nevsky Design Bureau at the Sevmash plant in Severodvinsk. After modernization, the ship will have a continuous flight deck with aerofinisher and a springboard for takeoff of the MIG-29K fighters.

    Not a single task at sea without aviation support is feasible. In Russia today there is not a single factory with a dry dock, where it was possible to build a ship with a displacement of more than 50000 tons and a length of 300 m. There is no suitable equipment for such work.

    The experience of world history teaches that in the near future, only a state that will have a balanced modern fleet in its composition can be considered a great sea power. The first place in it should rightfully belong to aircraft carriers, because it is not by chance that they are compared with the length of a hand capable of punishing a potential aggressor at any time, but in order not to repeat past mistakes, it is necessary to turn to history more often.

There were rumors that the shipyards in Sevmash would be modernized for aircraft carriers, but so far not at all. The project of a promising aircraft carrier was wrapped up for revision.

            Thank. And yet, is it really impossible to unify, because the helicopter carrier is close in size to an aircraft carrier? New technologies for cutting metal and the rest that the French will give us, can not be used to build, at least, the body of an aircraft carrier?

              In principle, it is possible. But do not forget that the case is not the main thing. It should be borne in mind that any ship is built around power units, but for their installation, as well as for the installation of other overall elements, it may not be suitable. And their displacement is different. Moreover, we cannot know what the new project of the aircraft carrier will be like.

                It is clear that the building is not everything, "EVERYTHING" is 168 allied factories. I am what
                believed that the "Mistrals" were bought 2, performed by the French, and 2 we will build
                themselves at the newly built shipyard with new technologies. That is, to us
                "mistrals" are not so much needed as a modern shipyard for construction
                aircraft carriers and other large-tonnage warships.?! I think so.

                  You misunderstood me a little.
                  1. There is nothing new in French Peugeot construction technology. Their purchase has a completely different subset.
                  2. Even if the dock allows you to build a Peugeot, this does not mean at all that on the basis of this dock assembly of an aircraft carrier is possible. This is due to the dimensions of the same above-deck buildings. Features of the installation of power plants.
                  3. We do not have a finished aircraft carrier project. I will not undertake to assert that he will have much in common with the Mistrals in line-up, displacement, geometry, and dimensions.
                  If we were talking about the Mistral and the heavy cruiser, I would agree with all the arguments.

      Interestingly, the Japanese were able to build 2 aircraft carriers before World War II, but we cannot and will not, because the money goes into the pockets of the employees of the Ministry of Defense, and 5 billion dollars a year go abroad, I wonder who? Something our "transparent" Vinorgans and the authorities are modestly silent. Deputies of all stripes do not publish inquiries about this. If it were not for the intrigues with Ukraine, aircraft carriers were built in Nikolaev, well, not Dwight Esenhower, but Boris Yeltsin.

      The aircraft carrier cruiser is the most versatile and most powerful weapon to date. 40 ship fighters can repel the strike of two enemy aircraft carriers at once. Destroy 100 air targets within a radius of 500 km.

    2. I think it’s not a demon the help of Russian engineers the ship is being built

We need to at least modernize the cruisers that are available, and it’s better to build new ones. Yes, the number of ships that are currently under construction is unlikely to replace at least analogues (and the fact that ships of rank 1 are left without replacement, this is not necessary to talk about)

    It is good that our Indian comrades, "partners", as they say now, are building their own aircraft carrier. They are great. And we must take an example from them, of course.

    But explain to me wretched, like this:
    [quote "The ship ... has been under construction since 2008 ... A.C. Anthony said that the construction program is progressing with a lag of at least five years, and that the ship will be ready no earlier than 2018 instead of the originally planned date (2014 ). "]

    How? Well, how can you be 4 (!) Years behind 5 years of construction? Maybe I do not understand something from lack of sleep?
    But for some reason it seems to me that SUCH an example is, as it were, needed, then only by "sawmills". And my opinion is this: it’s better if only the project is being created before the age of 20, but they will do everything according to the mind, than to follow the example of the Indians.

    the construction of aircraft carriers for our country is a stupid luxury - the strength of an aircraft carrier in its carrier-based aircraft; for our air defense system "hornets" and "axes" do not pose any serious danger; systems "BUK" - "TOP" are protected from interference and are several times cheaper; "hornet" costs 55 lemons; our ground complex "Velena" will jam any "AWACS" - and all this is much cheaper; after the destruction of carrier-based aircraft, any aircraft carrier turns into an unnecessary floating toilet - therefore, the Indians should not get upset, but better buy our air defense systems; don't mindlessly copy NATO

      You’d better keep silent about what you don’t have any idea. In a naval battle, the fleet that is supported by aviation will win. It gives a huge advantage, I’m not going to paint anything for you, you won’t understand anyway. You suggest just scoring for the fleet, immediately give our territorial waters to the enemy’s paws and wait until they attack our land.
      I will not even say that in this way we will not be able to defend our interests outside the borders of our country, and if necessary, put someone in our place by sending our fleet to the borders of villains.
      Do you know what this will be like? They will stupidly gather their whole bunch at a certain safe distance from the coast and will be able to mutinize our objects with thousands of JASSM and tomahawks with impunity, even ballistic missiles will be able to intercept. that of the new air defense systems in service with the unit.

        You contradict yourself ... and the person has painted one of the correct points of view, but only one, which works in the absence of expansion into the outside world. An aircraft carrier is needed to project force outside its territory, far beyond, i.e. for aggression, or for "enforcing peace" :)) With a peaceful policy, it will come in handy in the North in the absence of development of the northeast of the country (in terms of airfields) and for defending our interests in Antarctica, if the division starts there (in the Arctic, I think we fly more from our territory).

In Russia they say a lot but do nothing. They say the Chinese who do a lot of things. The Indians understand this very well and see the growing military threat from China and draw conclusions from this. You can only envy the sane and sober policies of Indian leaders.

      Well, on our Peter the Great, granites with a range of 600 km, supersonic, with half-ton warheads (and even nuclear warheads). And even if we have several such cruisers. And they have an AUG, let alone one. Aircraft DRLO, flying ahead of the AUG on several hundred km, our ships will see from a distance of 400 km (in this case, the distance from our cruisers to the aircraft carrier will be about 900 km). The wing will rise, will approach our cruisers 100 km at low altitudes (they will not be able to detect these low-flying aircraft from due to the radio horizon), and the AWACS aircraft will still be located at a distance of 400 km from our ships, where even if they find it, there’s nothing to shoot down with it, and it will highlight targets for their missiles. So, their air wing of 60 fighter jets just throws our cruisers with their harpoons. And there is nothing to work on the fighter, it is out of sight, beyond the radio horizon at an extremely low altitude.
      Even a group of cruisers will not be able to repel the attack of several hundred harpoons (which are much simpler and weaker than granite, subsonic, with a range of 100-150 km, warhead 200 kg) at once, especially since the avionics on our cruisers are outdated and cannot boast of special multi-channel) .
      Now it’s clear why aircraft carriers are needed, and that the best missiles are not a guarantee of victory, the carriers of these missiles, and sometimes the carriers, are also very important.

    Russia has correctly emphasized the Mistral. If the aircraft carrier is laid down, it will not be available earlier than in 10 years, while Vladivostok will be in the fall of 2013 and Sevastopol in 2014. It is necessary to develop the Yak-141 technology (takeoff with a catapult and vertical landing is the future of naval carrier-based aviation)

    TAGIR,
    Dear, and you ask the military pilots and sailors who served on aircraft carriers such as "Kiev", "Minsk", etc.
    What was the combat potential of the Yak-38, and where it mainly spent its fuel.
    About "Mistral" - a separate topic. The question is still there, how much did Taburetkin launder money for the purchase?
    This is not a full-fledged landing ship, and not a full-fledged helicopter carrier.
    My personal opinion is "Flies separately, cutlets separately." It will be more rational and quicker to transfer the helicopter strike group with VTA aircraft, rather than chatting them on the seas for several weeks or months.

      Mistrals are rather staff ships than a full-fledged helicopter carrier, which is why his air group is so small and he takes so many "passengers". It is probably logical to have such carobles in fleets (not to confuse the class with the mistrals). But then the following question arises - what will they (what grouping of forces) control? There was no answer to this question from the Ministry of Defense, and it's a pity - by the time the first aircraft carriers appear, these ships will have already been written off from the fleet, or some of them.
