The missile hovercraft of the Black Sea Fleet “Bor” will take part in the international exhibition in Istanbul

In the period from 7 to 10 in May, Turkish Istanbul will host the 11-I international defense industry exhibition. It is expected that the products of more than 600 firms, including four from Russia, will be represented there.

Experts have no doubt that one of the exhibits that will cause increased interest among the exhibitors will be the borax missile ship RKVP of the Black Sea fleet.

The Bohr RVCP (1239 project) is the largest in its subclass in the practice of Russian and world shipbuilding a high-speed warship using a hydrodynamic platform - a catamaran with aerostatic air discharge.

The ship consists of two narrow hulls covered with a platform. In front is an elastic screen. High speed allows the ship to not fall into the seizure of homing missiles, for the same reason it does not have time to catch up with the torpedo.

The displacement of the RVVP "Bora" is 1050 t.
Dimensions: length - 65,6 m, width - 17,2 m, draft - 3,3 m.
Maximum travel speed: 55 nodes.
Navigation range - 2500 miles with 12 nodes.
Armament: 2x4 rocket launchers Moskit anti-ship missile launchers, 1x2 launcher OS-M,
76 mm AK-176 gun mount, 2x6 30-mm AK-630 gun mount.
Crew: 68 people.

4 mosquitoes is cool. It shoots at 250 km, penetrating warhead 300 kg.
crashes, it doesn’t seem enough.

[Wedmak]

8 mosquitoes. On 4 from each side of the cabin. Plus artillery, plis high speed.

Ship history:
Hovercraft rocket ship ave. 1239

The first rocket ship on an air cushion, project 1239, was the Bora RCVP, laid down in 1984 at a plant in Zelenodolsk near Kazan, commissioned by the Navy in 1989 and, after trial operation, became part of the permanent readiness forces of the Black Sea Fleet in 1997. In terms of its strike potential, this RCVP on the Black Sea Fleet has no equal. It is the largest in its subclass in the practice of Russian and world shipbuilding, a high-speed combat ship using a hydrodynamic platform - a catamaran with aerostatic air discharge.

The ship consists of two narrow hulls covered by a platform 64 m long and 18 m wide. Ahead is an elastic screen. Two gas turbine engines rated at 60 thousand hp they can reach speeds of up to 55 knots even at a wave height of 2 m, and with 5 points (wave 3,5 m) more than 40 nodes. High speed allows the ship not to fall into the capture of homing missiles, for the same reason it does not have time to catch a torpedo. For an economical stroke, two diesel engines are installed. Seaworthiness - up to 8 points.

RKVP was created as a development of small missile ships of projects 1234 and 1234.1. The experience of using RTOs in combat service in the Mediterranean Sea has shown that ships of this size and classical formations are limited in the placement of weapons. The pr. 1239 catamaran has a large deck, which allows to solve this problem, more comfortable conditions for the use of weapons and crew accommodation. In addition, it has high seaworthiness. During the creation of the RCVP, the experience of the Almaz Central Marine Design Bureau and the shipbuilding industry, acquired during the construction of amphibious air-cushion ships of the Jeyran, Zubr, and others, was also widely used.

Having two separate propulsion systems for cruising and full speed, capable of working separately and together, the ship can move in three main modes (catamaran, KVP-1 and KVP-2), which provides almost one hundred percent guarantee of progress in any situation. So, for all the past years of operation of the RKVP "Bora" there was no case that the ship returned to base in tow. Moreover, the possibility of movement with the propellers turned off was carried out. The RKVP, when only the supercharger engines were operating, was able to move due to the outflow of air from the air cushion into the stern against the wind (7 m / s) at a speed of 3 knots.

12.05.1997/41/1239 RKVP "Bora" was officially put into operation. Currently, he is part of the XNUMXst Separate Missile Boat Brigade of the Black Sea Fleet. The experience of using the ship in the combat training of the fleet gave the Black Sea Fleet command grounds to believe that the ships of Project XNUMX, in terms of their tactical and technical characteristics, are optimal strike ships for non-freezing enclosed naval theaters, significantly increasing the combat potential of missile boat brigades.

Yes, there, and so in my opinion with the weapon is not sickly, as many as 8 Mosquitoes! For such a crumb, this is a killer arsenal.

The Germans had such a term "Pocket battleships", and here is something like that!

[mark021105]

For its displacement and this weapon is enough.

[Captain Vrungel]

It is a pity that all the Russian naval forces have only two ships of this project "Bora" and "Samum" at the KChF. At least one division in each fleet or one brigade, but better one division.

Yes, six more things on the Black Sea would not hurt. Expensive truth, but glorious ships.

[Captain Vrungel]

These two beauties have clearly demonstrated to the Turks who is the master of the Black Sea. If there were six, then the entire NATO fleet of the Black Sea states would not have ventured beyond their own territorial waters. It is scary, however.

[Vadivak]

Quote: Captain Vrungel

I would not be so categorical

The Turkish Navy currently has complete superiority over any state in the Black Sea basin. This is especially noticeable in the area of ​​the submarine fleet and the armament of the Turkish Navy with anti-ship missiles - Ankara surpasses the Black Sea Fleet in its most probable and powerful enemy in 3-4 times.

More or less resist the Turkish Navy, the Russian Black Sea Fleet can only with the involvement of additional funds and forces of the armed forces of the Russian Federation.
• Currently, there are 6 submarines of the German project 209/1200 of the Atylay type (built by Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft, HDW) in the Turkish submarine fleet. They entered the fleet from 1975 to 1989.
condition of submarine forces of other states in the Black Sea:
- Georgia and Abkhazia do not have submarines,
- Bulgaria has 1 submarine (built in 1973, on the verge of decommissioning),
- Romania has 1 submarine (it will also be decommissioned soon, there are no prospects for the appearance of new submarines),
- Ukraine 1 submarine (in a practically non-operational state, in continuous repair),
- Russia 2 submarines (Alrosa, Prince George - they plan to write it off).

Turkey is armed with 8 frigates of the MEKO 200 Track I and MEKO 200 Track II projects. The oldest of them are the frigates Yavuz and Turgutreis. In 1998-2003, Ankara received from the United States 8 American frigates of the Oliver H. Perry-class missile defense system built in 1978-1981. Together with Lockheed Martin Corporation, they have been modernized in Turkish shipyards. Only these 16 frigates are capable of striking 96 anti-ship missiles with the first salvo. In addition to 16 frigates of the 1st line, the Turkish Navy has 3 old American-built frigates of 1970-1972 of the "Knox" type. In addition, there are 6 more French-built corvettes. 1974-1976, they are armed with the Exocet anti-ship missiles. The Turks plan to leave them in service until 2028, when they will be replaced by 8 Turkish-built corvettes according to the MilGem project. The Turkish Navy has 12 missile boats, it is planned to build new mine-sweeping ships of the Alania type, and new patrol boats are being built - Golcuk, Dearsan , Istanbul Denizcilik, ADIK, Celik Tekne, Desan and Sedef RMK, a program to build amphibious assault ships is underway.

[Vadivak]

Army1 Sergei and what silently minus? let's argue on the topic

[TRex]

Why argue? Everything is extremely clear to all sane - our Black Sea Fleet is outdated and is not ready to independently carry out a large-scale combat mission. In the development plans, the Navy is promised to transfer to the Black Sea Fleet and submarines, and NK, and things are still there.
On the Black Sea, one owner is a Turk.

[kostyan77708]

there’s no doubt that there’s no more ships, I think about aviation too

[morehod73]

3-4 times as I understand it, smooth the corners. The combat potential even by open sources exceeds 7 times, not to mention the qualitative superiority. And 12 rka ..... and where else 20 ???? It’s not sad, but from the ..... s 90’s zero still get out and get out, but ... always believe in the best ....

there are still 4 submarines of project 209 / T1.1400 commissioned in 1994-1999 and 4 submarines of project 209 / T2.1400 commissioned in 2003-2007

By the way, are these ships not good enough? why didn’t they do it anymore? Is it only the collapse of the country and the lack of money?

dear, the whole duralumin, I still took part in the construction in practice in 91- filed hammers
then his name was "sea lion"

[bddrus]

duralumin - etozh aluminum - why expensive? Now you can make something out of composites or what else is there

[Tatanka Yotanka]

because colormet is a priori more expensive than ferrous metal, details at scrap collection points
Now you can make something out of composites or what else is there
is it now, and are there any examples of building warships from composites? and then?
duralumin is always used for add-ons, and there is also a body for light weight

[DS22]

composites have long been used in shipbuilding, especially in the West, although this is a double-edged sword - after all, composite materials are fire hazardous, i.e. when hit, for example, by the anti-ship missile "Moskit", the superstructures burn out completely.

[amp]

20 such ships on the Black Sea and for the soft underbelly of Russia can be calm. If only instead of mosquitoes, what is better to put, and generally excellent.

[120352]

And the boat was laid back in 1984, but became part of the fleet somewhere in the second half of the 90s. And, it seems he’s the only one with us. And not new. I hope that modern, better armed ones will appear. Roberto Bartini very long ago developed everything necessary for this, although Beriev took everything from him and, having not understood anything, did not manage to do anything.

[Bronis]

According to the 1239 project, the 2 ship, Bora and Samum, was built.

Quote: 120352

I hope that modern, better armed ones will appear.

Given the displacement (MRK), it is quite well armed. From the new RTOs we are waiting for "Buyan-M". It will surpass 1239 in strike missile armament, but inferior in missile defense (though 100 tons less displacement). Travel speed - I do not compare.
Well, about Bartini - he was an outstanding scientist and very versatile. But most of his projects, although they were "breakthrough", were not suitable for the series - they could not pull either economically or technologically (to start the series). Let's remember VVA-14.

[WS]

Who knows if this ship is capable of "going out" on land?

[Wedmak]

No, it can’t go to land.

[APASUS]

What do they want to show? We ourselves have only two ships, Bora and Samum !!

[erased]

Oh, good ship! King of the coastal zone within a radius of 500 km. And even more. The best friend of enemy aircraft carriers and destroyers. And how many of them do we have :?

[bddrus]

it seems like he is such

- i.e. two pieces in the photo do not bother you? Of course, two are not a squadron, but ...

[mashinist]

More to us in service!

[amp]

But in general, I think that ekranoplanes are better than hovercraft. The same Lun has 6 mosquitoes, despite the fact that the speed is 500 km \ h, the swimming range is 2000 km.
Of course, hovercraft is quite enough for the Black Sea, but in the Far East and in the Arctic, ekranoplanes would have shown themselves better. I don’t understand why no one even poses a question about resuming the construction of ekranoplanes? A couple dozen ekranoplanes would force the Japanese surface fleet to hide at the bases. Their speed is especially impressive - in 2 hours they can go up to 1000 km.

[max-02215]

So, I think the advisers of the first presidents tried hard, a lot of things were turned off. but renew. apparently there’s no longer any will or opportunity, it’s easier to buy a mistral, but to hell ....,

[igor36]

Boron is expensive to operate. and the ekranoplan is even more complicated and expensive. WIG is neither a plane nor a ship. For its price, you can build 5 Su-34s which will be doubled in terms of impact characteristics.

[druidcat]

What an interesting unit. Good luck on the shows in Turkey.

[spravochnik]

They no longer began to build because they had a very complex propulsion system in operation. Now it really can be done much easier and more convenient to use and cheaper. And the ship is really beautiful.

[elmi]

I believe that it is impossible to arm potential opponents with such unique ships.

[Nayhas]

There is probably no more equipment left, so they won’t do more of this, especially Ukraine ...

[Watchman]

I wonder how many dozen of these could be built instead of buying at least one Mistral?

[Navy7981]

I look at the photos and see if we can build ships! Beauties! And the old ones long removed from service and new!
It is a pity that they cut everything old without sparing memory. The ships of the museums ended once and twice. At the end of 80 at the Black Sea Fleet there were still two 30bis destroyers with 2x130 mm towers. Well, put them on the eternal anchors! No! They started to cut, tired of throwing! I left one of them rusted littered to one side on the Black River. Sad ...

[tlauicol]

a good ship, but painfully expensive and complicated even for a superpower. I'm afraid there will be no orders, the Turks will buy a couple of corvettes for this price. and if the Norwegians put Skjeld, then several Skjelds
