God grant seven feet under the keel !!!

It was laid down in 1992 as an export one, after 2000 it was completed for the Russian Navy under the name "Dagestan".
The frigate "Dagestan" is designed to combat the underwater, surface and air adversaries in carrying out a range of tasks (escorting ships, ships and convoys, maintaining patrol services, guarding the state border and marine economic zone, etc.) in the near sea zone.
Structurally, the ship, with a length of 102 m and a displacement of 2,1 thousand tons, is made with traditional smooth-deck architecture with 10 waterproof compartments and superstructures made of aluminum-magnesium alloys.
The main power plant is a twin-shaft type CODOG (diesel generator and 2 gas turbines with a total capacity of 29000 hp).

The power plant includes 3 diesel generators of 600 kW each.

A medium-speed diesel engine of type 61D (8000 hp) through a complex gearbox provides all cruising modes, and gas turbines (one for each shaft) provide a full speed of up to 28 knots (52 km / h).

Autonomy of swimming is doubled compared to the base project and is 30 days.

The frigate "Dagestan", in addition to good driving performance, is well-armed, which ensures that they solve their mission with high efficiency.
The range of the Uranus main strike missile system has been doubled to 350 km.

These are 2 quad launchers with anti-ship cruise missiles (ASM) of the X-35E type.
For firing at low-flying and small-sized surface targets, the standard OSA-MA air defense system is used with ammunition of 20 missiles and 76,2-mm AK-176M (152 rounds) and 30-mm AK-630M (2000 rounds).

Search and identification is carried out according to information from a general ship radar of the "Positive" type, as well as a standard radar (at a distance of up to 30 km) of an anti-aircraft complex.


To combat submarines, two 2-pipe 533-mm torpedo tubes were installed, with torpedoes - one RBU 6000 rocket launcher, MGK-type MGK-335.

For staging passive interference, 4 PK-16 launchers can be used, and for minefields - 12-20 sea mines.

All types of weapons can be used with sea waves up to 5 points.

But is it not called everywhere a corvette - it’s even less than new corvettes

And are the frigates Talvars and new frigates - about 4 tons each? Not this way?

[Superduck]

I, too, this classification seemed strange. By all characteristics, a typical large corvette.
But the air defense is rather weak as for me, he certainly is not an air defense cruiser, but modern frigates are more powerful in this regard.

[Marat]

It also seems to me that they call him everywhere a corvette - he is also smaller than a new corvette (20380 chtoli I don’t remember his number) - and air defense is weaker than 20380

In general, this Dagestan is similar to a "compromise" of cost - combat qualities - for the Caspian, in principle, it is enough for now - but if there pendos "break through Iran, then air defense will be needed

[Superduck]

Well, yes, the requirements for the Caspian are absolutely definitely said. Speed ​​and shallow draft are more important there, by the standards of this sea it’s a real scavenger, and the wasp is there because of its versatility, not to push the poachers with the X-35 de Jonki uranium. But on the other seas, I would be afraid to send him.

[Hannibal]

Oh, if we invested more money in production, but the salaries of the developers would be increased, you see, and there would be more of such handsome men!

[kosmos84]

it’s possible to supply a boat with grenade launchers to the Caspian Sea, and such ships to the Black Sea Fleet as opposed to the Turks

[boos24]

things are moving slowly, but of course you need faster and in a larger volume

[vikruss]

The 300 km radius of action is not quite that much, I certainly admit that no one will tell us the truth in this matter, the certitude plays to preserve safety. And from "pleasant surprises" no one is insured comrades yet. Well, judge for yourself, Amer tomahawks fly much further, and where is the figure 300?
