Mistral will be delivered to the Russian side in the near future, although the exact date of the transfer has not yet been determined, French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told 12 in a speech to members of the National Assembly on November 10. Reports about it TASS.

French Defense Ministry: Mistral helicopter carrier will be handed over to Russia in the near future


“The current situation is as follows: the delivery of the helicopter carrier should be carried out in the near future. But, as you know, the shipbuilding corporation DCNS announced that it does not currently have a government export permit. Thus, no delivery date at the present stage is defined. The contract with Rosoborotexport involves the supply of the first ship in the fall of 2014, and the second - in the fall of 2015, ”said the minister.

“The French president has already said that this decision will be made at the right time, and that he will take this decision with due responsibility,” Le Drian said. “This is a really difficult decision.”

“At present, the contract on the first ship is being carried out normally. There is currently no need for any additional initiatives in this area, ”he said.

“I assure you that at the right time France will approach the decision-making and fulfillment of its obligations with full responsibility,” the minister concluded.

As the agency previously reported, the first helicopter carrier should be delivered to Russia on November 14.

They will squeal, whine and exactly on November 14, blowing off the dust particles, they will give the vessel to our representatives.

      The French seem to have taken the ostrich's pose.
      Moscow, November 13 - AiF-Moscow.
      The transfer of the Mistral helicopter carrier will not take place on November 14, as previously planned. The French side did not confirm the time and date of the transfer of the ship, according to Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
      Recall that Rosoboronexport received an invitation to transfer the first Mistral to Russia and launch the second on November 14th. The invitation from DCNS Shipbuilding Corporation was never withdrawn. Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin also confirmed that the first helicopter carrier will be handed over to the Russian side on this day.
      However, from November 12, the French stopped contacting and giving any comments regarding the upcoming transfer of the helicopter carrier. French Finance Minister Michelle also stated that at present there are no necessary conditions for the transfer of the Mistral helicopter carrier to Russia.
      Note that there have been no official refusals of supplies from France. Russia did not receive notification from France about the transfer, suspension or cancellation of the contract for the supply of the Mistral helicopter carrier.
      Meanwhile, at the end of October, the French Ministry of Defense was determined to fulfill the contract with Russia for the supply of Mistral helicopter carriers.
      With the start of anti-Russian sanctions, there was a fear that France would not fulfill its contractual obligations due to US pressure, which many times spoke out for terminating this contract. The French government, as a condition for fulfilling the contract, put forward a demand to resolve the situation in Ukraine and adhere to the Minsk agreements. French President Francois Hollande said he would make a final decision on the delivery of Mistral helicopter carriers to Russia in November.
      The contract for the supply of two Mistrals between France and Russia was concluded in 2011. The contract value amounted to 1,2 billion euros.
      The State Duma proposed to demand a penalty if the Mistrals are not delivered on time according to the contract.

        Ala-Mistrala, due to the increase in the height of the helicopter hangar, walks with the slightest excitement. Agree, it would be better if they keep the Mistrals for themselves, and pay a penalty to Russia. In addition, even if the contract is terminated, the Russian Federation still has complete documentation on the ship, such as a "do it yourself" instruction bully

            I apologize wildly, but you don't know where the Mistral's stern was built? So I'll tell you - in St. Petersburg. And then they were towed to France and docked with the local bow.

            Another thing is that the Baltic Plant is now building as many as 3 nuclear icebreakers ...

            And in Nikolaev now only potbelly stoves can be cooked. The factory has died. Only Kerch remained at the World Cup - by the way, there you can also build large ships and ships.

Today the question (positively) about strengthening and modernization of "Zvezdochka" was being worked out. It seems that they are going to build shipyards for the construction of tankers in 350 thousand tons (!) And the military direction.

      Today the question was worked out (positively) about strengthening and modernizing "Zvezdochka". It seems that they are going to build shipyards for the construction of tankers in 350 thousand tons (!) And the military direction.

      Already under construction:
      In Vladivostok today they discussed the creation of a shipbuilding complex on the basis of the Zvezda plant. The meeting was chaired by Russian President Vladimir Putin. The first stage of the complex should be commissioned this year, and they want to complete the entire project by 2020. As a result, Zvezda will produce a wide variety of ships - from tankers and gas carriers to special reconnaissance ships.
      (...)
      The shipbuilding cluster in the Far East, he said, should become a large production center that will produce and service ships of different classes - primarily for our domestic market. "There is such a request from the domestic buyer. This means that new shipbuilding capacities will be in demand," the president is sure.
      (...)
      The President recalled that a shipyard is being built from scratch in Bolshoy Kamen (Far East). Its first stage is scheduled for completion in 2016. Previously, there was no full cycle of creating ships here. "Therefore, new production competencies and trained personnel are needed," the president emphasized. Vesti.ru

      - The navy receives a ship to practice a new over-the-horizon landing tactics for us, plus a large ferry for the Syrian Express with the ability to transport assembled helicopters.

      The French side, two days before the expected date of the transfer of the first Mistral-class landing helicopter carrier to Russia, Vladivostok does not get in touch, a high-ranking source in the system of military-technical cooperation told RIA Novosti on Wednesday.

      "They are silent, do not make contact. They should have sent it on the 14th, but now there is silence," the agency's interlocutor said. Thus, according to the interlocutor, the transfer process is "suspended in the air", the Russian side is waiting for a decision.

    "Mistral" must be defended with all our might, since we have nothing to replace it with and our own industry, unfortunately, until such a ship picks up ... Give me a Russian large landing ship (in the fleet), capable of landing amphibious assault "from over the horizon" with the help DKA and helicopters, as well as provide air support to the landing? I'm sure you won't. Our BDK, both project 775 and project 1171, are capable of landing personnel and equipment only on the coast, being in danger of being destroyed or damaged.

    And under construction for 8 years (since 2004, they plan to enter the fleet next year), the large landing craft "Ivan Gren" pr. 11771 carries only one Ka-29 airborne combat helicopter, does not have a dock chamber, that is, it is not capable of transporting a submarine and for the landing of the amphibious assault is also forced to be washed ashore.

    The Vladivostok UDC of the Mistral type was built in 2 years (laid down on February 01.02.2012, 15.10.2013, launched on October 8, 52) carries 8 Ka-29K fire support helicopters, 2 Ka-1 transport and combat helicopters and 1996 DKA project CTM NG and will become the first surface ship of the XNUMXst rank, which joined our Navy since XNUMX, after the transfer to the fleet of the TARKR "Peter the Great"
    http://russian-ships.info/boevye/mistral.htm

    Yes, in the Soviet Navy there were similar ships 3 BDK project 1174 "Rhino", which carried 4 Ka-29 and 6 DKA pr.1176 or pr.1785 or 3 on an air cushion pr.1206. (SF- "Mitrofan M_oskalenko"; Pacific Fleet: "Alexander Nikolaev", "Ivan Rogov"), but all of them are currently decommissioned: "Ivan Rogov" in 1995; "Alexander Nikolaev" and "Mitrofan M_oskalenko" in 2006.


    Is our military-industrial complex capable of building a ship similar to the Mistral in 2 years? I'm sure not. The timing of the construction of "Ivan Gren", the displacement of which is 3,5 times less (6000 tons versus 22500 tons at the "Mistral") I indicated above and now for the "Syrian Express" we are forced to repair the ancient large landing craft of the project 1171: the Saratov large landing craft was transferred fleet in 1966, large landing craft "Orsk" in 1968.

      "Rhinos" are a slightly different class. If "Mistral" is a microUDC, then 1174 is a classic DVD / DCD. The difference is like between "Tarawa" and "Whidbey Island".

      "Rhinos" were killed by their own power plant. By the way, even if they had not been written off, they would still have stood idle now - because until 2017 there will be no domestic ship-borne gas turbine engines, and we will not get Nikolaev ones.

        All more or less advanced countries of the world are trying to have them as part of their forces: p_indos, small-britters and the French completely abandon landing ships in favor of the UDC, the Chinese are building a series of UDCs of the "Qinchenshan" type, project 071 (already 3 in service), with a displacement 19 tons, 000 paratroopers, 1000 Z-4 helicopters, 8 air-cushion landing ships in the dock, 4 AFVs

        South Koreans- "Dokdo"

        Japanese "Izumo" (this is rather a light aircraft carrier)

        The same South Koreans, having built 2 Makassar UDCs to the Indonesians, with a total displacement of 11 tons, landing capacity: 400 people, 500 tanks, 13 DKA, gave them a license for their construction, and now the Indonesians are building them for the Philippines and Myanmar.

        Recently, even Algeria, clearly not a trendsetter in naval fashion, received an Italian UDC with a total displacement of 9000 tons. The ship's dock chamber provides the basing of three LCM-class tank landing boats (which were built in Algeria by the Navy shipyard according to Fincantieri's drawings). In addition, on davits and sponsons, the Algerian DVKD will carry three LCVP-type small landing craft, one LCP (L) type and two semi-rigid motor boats. A small hangar ("garage") deck can accommodate up to 15 armored vehicles or five T-90SA tanks. The crew of the ship will be 150 people (including the composition of the air group), and the landing capacity is 440 people.
        http://bmpd.livejournal.com/tag/Алжир


        Do we all choose whether we need a UDC or not? Everyone agrees that, of course, they are needed and the second question arises, but can we build them ourselves? And it turns out that no ... The landing forces of our Navy are morally obsolete back in the 80s, and now they are also physically outdated in terms of combat capabilities are now seen not even in the top ten. This imbalance was designed to quickly eliminate the Mistral. BDK pr. 11771 "Ivan Gren" under construction is a "fattened" (full displacement of 4650 tons), redesigned and received a helipad BDK pr. 1171, late 60s-early 70s, also under construction in Kaliningrad, on Baltic Shipyard "Yantar", which was a continuation of the American LST, during the Second World War.

      as I understand it, Mistral will land in km-200 for fear of coastal anti-ship missiles, and support helicopters will be slow, low maneuverable, you can’t hide behind the hill above the sea, a darling target for covering their air defense, and how many guarding ships he will require if one Mediterranean squadron from all fleets they recruited the ship, and the admirals won’t refuse themselves — the entire fleet is on guard, to the detriment of other tasks and goals, maybe frigates will be built for him, but I think the next 10 years there will be no tasks for him in the fleet

        The point is not to expose the ship and landing in it under fire from all types of weapons of the coastal defense of the enemy. Our BDK in the mode of landing unloading is a large fixed target for which it is possible to work even with mortars and anti-tank systems.

            And who told you that there will be no processing of the coast during an overseas landing?
            The point of the over-the-horizon landing is not to expose the "base" assault ship with all the landing force, headquarters and command to all possible enemy fire (you can only get it by aviation and anti-ship missiles). Instead, in the zone of fire of artillery and infantry of the BO, high-speed, maneuverable and small-sized targets operate, besides carrying only part of the landing.

            By the way, when using traditional BDKs, even more thorough processing of the coast is required, because the targets of them are much larger and less maneuverable.

            On the 775s "blowtorches", EMNIP, are available only on the third series. And the bulk goes with the ancient AK-725, developed during the time of dear Nikita Sergeevich. Neither to fight off the anti-ship missile, nor to shoot along the coast.

            And where else to place the headquarters? On a warship? So after that, the ship becomes unworkable - for the headquarters cockroaches occupy all the fighting posts and cabins, evicting the full-fledged military personnel from them and pounding him with the fulfillment of the tasks of ensuring their activities. As a result, the ship either controls the formation or fights.
            The USSR had a pair of old 68-bis for control, modernized to U1 and U2 (they added 4-8 AK-230 and one launcher of the sea "Wasp"). The Yankees have almost unarmed Mount Whitney.

            That is, you do not see the difference between the CWP with lowered columns and the mini-UDC with azipods?
            Once again and slowly - we have no experience in designing and building UDC. All that we have is the freak "Khalzan" and "Ivan Tarava", which never came down to normal projects. To create a completely domestic UDC, our industry requires 7 years. And remembering how smartly our shipbuilding industry moves the deadlines, these 7 years will calmly grow into 10-12.
            Even in Soviet times, after the devastation and the NEP of the 20s, we had to purchase documentation and even systems and mechanisms abroad for all the leading projects of large ships of the fleet (except for the completely domestic LD pr. 1, the head of which was built for more than 7 years). Now - alas, but CD and TD are sold only with ships loaded (however, Vickers also sold us the future T-26). On the other hand, for a design bureau, when developing its project on the basis of existing drawings, the operating experience of a living ship is no less important than a set of documentation.

    yeah. Another topic. Now back. But the minister indicated in the article that there would be no special permission.
    In general, as I understand it, you need Hollande to sign and give permission. Until he gives.
    What to do? Option Maidan in Paris so that the NATO base does not appear on the Mistrals and the Russian language is not banned?
    Just kidding
    In fact, it's time to calm down with the articles. Often they are from empty to empty. It would be better for the Russian Federation to form a commission and think about what to do in the worst case (and in the rest)
    And then you can demand compensation and the ship can be, but who will give? I, too, can remember the Ukrainian fleet, but they don’t return it. It’s far from the thoughts of parallels, but the wording is the same for Moscow and for Paris.
    Both precedents happened at the same time.
    And in history there have been cases when shipbuilders did not give ships to the customer. Something I don’t remember to be compensated for by them .. although all the business and the roof are happy.

    Moscow. the 13th of November. INTERFAX.RU - The Russian delegation, which on November 14 was supposed to take part in the ceremony of handing over to Russia the first Mistral helicopter carrier built in France, while it remains in Moscow, a source in one of the structures that deals with military-technical issues told Interfax on Thursday cooperation.

    "Due to the fact that no confirmation has yet been received that the transfer of the ship will take place on November 14, it has been decided not to send a delegation to San Nazaire," the agency's source said.

    He said that the Russian delegation included representatives of the RF Ministry of Defense, Rosoboronexport, the United Shipbuilding Corporation, and a number of other structures.

    "The French side, most likely, will present the current situation as" force majeure "and will use its right to prolong the transfer deadline for three months," the agency's source said.

    He explained that the contract provides for such an opportunity. But the reason for the postponement should be some technical problems associated with the testing and commissioning of the helicopter carrier, and not the political situation.

    MOSCOW, 14 Nov - RIA News. The first assault helicopter carrier of the Mistral type, the Vladivostok ship, according to an invitation sent by the Russian side, should be transferred by France to the Russian Navy on Friday. But there is still no clarity about when the transfer will take place: the Russian delegation has not left for France, and the French side has not withdrawn and did not confirm its invitation, and cannot decide on a new date.
    (...)
    On the eve of “X day”, the journalists of the French weekly Nouvel Observateur found out that Russia had not fabricated the invitation and that the November 14 date really appeared in them - French officials received similar letters. Even a detailed schedule of the ceremony and the scheme of access to the venue have appeared on the Internet.

      Unfortunately, we do not have a computer toy - the availability of money does not mean the ability to immediately begin the construction of the ship.
      You can build something you need only if you have a project. In our country, EM and CD have not gone beyond sketches and "concepts". KB such monsters breed that you are amazed. A little more - and they will reach the atomic EM of 25-30 kt.
      So even if there is money, domestic EM / KR, God forbid, there will be in 7-8 years. Moreover, the problem is not so much in shipbuilders as in the complex of allies who need to develop and bring to mind mechanisms, electronics and weapons. And it is advisable to do this before the development of the project is completed - so that it doesn’t work out later that the development does not fit into the space allotted to it.
