    Interestingly, the Russian Navy will receive such corvettes or Vietnam is more important.

      Here's a video on the topic ... Vietnam is arming heavily, I think it's not bad, he is our long-time ally in this region!

        "Russia has only two allies - its Army and Navy." There are also countries whose interests at this stage coincide with those of Russia. But it is not a fact that they will coincide in the future. Examples, I think it's superfluous to give, there are plenty of them ...

          I wonder whose engines and generators are worth? Very interesting.

            But the fact that they are not Ukrainian is a fact: due to the disruption of supplies, the delivery date for the Cheetahs for Vietnam was postponed for a year.

      Not only do we need to fight. If Vietnam will support our interests, and not at our expense. What questions may be, we are doing one thing.

        Vietnam primarily supports its interests, and secondly, those whose interests at the moment coincide with those that it supports in the first place ...-))) Now Vietnam has signed an economic agreement with the United States against China. Question: Whose interests are closer to him?

          "Whose interests are closer to him?"- the answer has already sounded -" ours. "And then it is more difficult:"Vietnam signed an economic agreement with the USA against China"- here the answer already needs to be calculated, the unambiguity does not work. If the USA buys from us for money, then our interests are supported to a greater extent, then what is against China is unpleasant, and now not to sell, but in Vietnam there is wonderful naval base Cam Ranh, should we forget about it. On this base, the piers were built by the Americans for their aircraft carriers, with the possibility of raising (changing the height) of the pier above sea level. Sorry: do we have such in our country? So the question is, to whom More, even theoretically, our ships have nowhere to lean on in this area, I suppose the Chinese will understand this, they themselves have blocked access to the ocean by the Americans with a base in Okinawa. who himself was in Vietnam.

      The engines are put on them by the German MTU. In connection with the embargo on deliveries to the Russian Navy, a big question? Something like they managed to smuggle through China, but in reality, things are not really at the factory now.

      That's interesting. Vietnam is far from the richest country, and a series of 6 frigates is being bought + our submarines + a lot of other things. Where does the money come from? Apparently they understand that it is better to live independently with a "tight belt" than to sell for "green candy wrappers". It's a pity that not everyone in the world, and even in our country, realizes this.

        Where is the money?

        Maybe a certain country has borrowed money to Vietnam, so that he would buy weapons from her, as such an option? wink

        Vietnam is a country - a coast, and Russia - a country - a continent. For us, the ground forces and the aerospace forces are more important.

          No, wrong. Standing in neutral waters near the FSA with the Nth number of cruise and high-speed missiles is not bad at all!

      It is unlikely that our base 22380, which will be more powerful, and most importantly, as far as I know, Ukrainian engines are installed on the Cheetahs. They are being sold to the Vietnamese; for ours, from 11356 and 22350 we are tormented now.

      already received two, they are worse than the 20380 project and they are not frigates, but corvettes. they didn’t reach the frigate with a displacement, it would be necessary at least in 2,5 times, and better in 3. Then there will be a frigate. And this one is closer to the boat than to the frigate. Who writes the articles? This is not the first time I've encountered such inaccuracies.

    And how are these different from ours? Just wondering, are we cutting off the possibilities of export designs or not?

      Medium.

      In fact, Cheetah 3.9 is a deteriorated, however redesigned Dagestan, but much improved Tatarstan.

      The flights do not order UKKS, they have enough X-35E, all the more so they buy them in large quantities with lightning.

      But the MZA has missiles, they were tested before the surrender and they seemed to be transmitted. Dagestan has a purely cannon complex.

      Plus, the flies ordered a helipad, and Dagestan and Tatarstan do not have one.

      The Russian Navy will not purchase ships of this project as insufficient by requirements. It only bought Tatarstan - for it was cheap and then there wasn’t much money (they were still building in the Union), and with great creak Dagestan, with full processing under the UKKS.

    Vietnam is friends with everyone who has sensible weapons and who can offer credit for these same weapons, except for China - they have shares for islands in the South China Sea. And as soon as they finish rearming, there we’ll see who is comrade to whom.

    Money is also needed for the construction of frigates for Russia, including from the sale of ships to friendly Vietnam.

      And at whose expense do you prefer to build ships for the Russian Federation? At the expense of taxpayers of the Russian Federation or taxpayers of Vietnam ???
      It is also real money in the "long" term from service, training, supply of spare parts, etc. !!!

    An excellent, well-tested, serial corvette for the Black Sea Fleet, but the "management decided" that Project 22160 will be built for the Black Sea Fleet. 22160 is almost the same in size, a little faster and more autonomous, but there is no PLO armament. It is assumed that some "weapon modules" will be installed for a specific task, but you understand that there are no modules yet, except for container "clubs", but the corvette will be armed with them in the UKSK.
    In general, the newest "design" corvette with no PLO weapons, against the serial waste and more balanced, but old. I think at first there will be a victory of youth over common sense, then when it turns out that "the design is new, unworked, difficulties have arisen," the military will get tired of waiting, spit and order a Cheetah brigade.

    I completely agree with you. It's time to move away from old stereotypes.

    Like Vietnam ordered the Dutch corvettes. What happened to this deal?
