Naval Frigate fleet RF Admiral Essen received from the holdingAviation equipment »a new 3S90E.1 launcher. This is a vertical launch unit, which is part of the Shtil-1 air defense system. It is such anti-aircraft missile systems that are used on frigates of project 11356, to which Admiral Essen belongs.
General Director of the Aviation Equipment Holding, which is structurally part of a state corporation Rostekh, Maxim Kuzyuk told that the installation of a vertical start for the “Shtil-1” air defense system was developed by NPP “Start” named after Yaskin. The main feature of the 3C90E.1 launcher is that it allows you to increase the rate of fire of the complex in 6 times compared with previous versions. This significantly increases the combat power of the 11356 frigates.
The updated package “Calm-1” allows you to “accompany” simultaneously to 12 targets of a different nature. At the same time 3C90Е.1 is presented in a modular fashion. Transport and launch containers (their 12) with missiles are placed under the deck of the frigate, and this leads to a decrease in the radar visibility of the ship and a more balanced distribution of weapons on it.
Before Admiral Essen, the frigate Admiral Grigorovich, the first frigate of the 11356 project, received a new launcher.
The frigate "Admiral Essen" is currently being completed afloat. In the spring of 2015, it is planned to conduct state tests, after which the warship will fully become part of the Russian Black Sea Fleet (port posting - Sevastopol).
