Torfedoes' Val Fajr Production Line launched in Iran

42
On Wednesday in Iran, in a festive atmosphere, a line for the production of modern torpedoes "Val-Fajr" was opened, according to blog Yury Lyamina with reference to russian.irib.ir.



Speaking at the opening ceremony, Iranian Defense Minister Hussein Dehkan said that the main priority of the command is “to provide and equip the Navy with the latest and most powerful weapons, so that they can become the long arms of the country that can protect the maritime borders and break any attempts at aggression ".

New Minister torpedoes called "smart weapons"With high speed and powerful warhead that can hit any enemy marine objects in a matter of seconds."

According to him, “the world must hear the signal from Iran that it will bring down any threat with all its might, and not a single law and no resolution can restrict it”.

In turn, the commander of the Navy, Habibolla Sayyari, thanked the Minister for equipping fleet the latest weapons. According to him, Val-Fajr, in comparison with other samples, has "a large radius of action, greater accuracy and explosive power."

From himself, Yury Lyamin added the following: “Val-Fajr torpedo” is another fruit of the active military-technical cooperation of Iran and the DPRK, continuing with 1980x. As you can see from the YT-534 torpedo index, the UW1 is a new modification of the North Korean torpedo PT-97W (YT-534W1), whose production has been localized in Iran. ”

      Now we must also teach Koreans to modernize these torpedoes. Whatever the Amers did not feel comfortable there.

        The Koreans themselves perfectly modernize them and create new ones. The aforementioned "PT-97W" was adopted by the DPRK and is currently no longer produced. Instead, more modern torpedoes are produced.

      Hi AUG USA ...


      Weapons of course for suicide bombers ... But here is the main decision. If you go to the shock position and launch a torpedo, you yourself will surely die, but there is a high probability of a critical hit of the target.

      I think there will be people in the IRGC who are ready to launch such a suicidal attack. But there are those who want to turn their neck under such a blow ... Orders, of course, are not discussed, but the politician who gave such an order will be a political corpse in the USA.

      PS Iran is far from a secular state. People for faith are ready to die. But at the same time there is not a drop of Wahhabism. Although where does he come from - Wahhabism is practically the national religion of the Saudis, the worst enemies of the Iranians

          The submarine has much less room for maneuver and speed.
          I do not think that the Iranian submarine is invisible, which cannot be detected. So it will be destroyed with a high degree of probability.

          It is worth recalling what losses the Hitler submarine fleet suffered after the appearance of new technology among the Angles and Americans. Here the situation of technology will repeat the situation of 43-45 years.

            Hitler's submarine fleet was destroyed thanks to the English cryptographers and the blind faith of the Germans in the protection of Enigma. The boats stupidly calculated according to the coordinates that they themselves broadcast, and planes and hunters rushed there. They can now better find a boat at a depth, but still I would not write them off right away. Well, submariners - is there a chance for a modern submarine to go unnoticed at a depth from modern search equipment, if its approximate location is known?

              I beg to differ hi
              It was destroyed due to the Germans' mistakes in radar (the "Biscay cross" actually signaled to the English hunters - "I am here!", For example, until the Germans realized this and removed them). Also, the superiority of the Allies in this matter - after the 44th, a rare submarine passed the Bay of Biscay, they were direction finding by aviation, and in any weather, when the boat was going confidently (low clouds). It was the "Catalins" that destroyed most of the boats going into the ocean from French ports (or returning from a campaign).

              Plus extreme underwater vulnerability of the boat for destroyers and anti-submarine ships. But there were nuances, namely: low speed in underwater position, long recharge (that of batteries, that of torpedoes), short battery life. The modern submarine, of course, is devoid of these shortcomings. But progress in the development of sonars and depth charges / anti-submarine torpedoes has not stood still over these decades

              The triangulation method is absolutely indifferent to decryption / not decryption. Actually, this is exactly how all positions of submarines in the Atlantic were calculated. And it became fatal at the end of the war, when the Allies got planes with a sufficient range in the ocean. A very large percentage of the destroyed submarines in aviation

              Yes, it would be interesting to hear the opinion of modern specialists. I am a layman in modern submarine warfare, I was always more interested in the WWII in this matter.
              But at the same time, I don’t think that Iranian (or North Korean) diesel-electric submarines went very far from the German project XXI, and that they didn’t stand next to modern models of this class developed either in our country or in the west

                You should not think so. Modern low-frequency aircraft are not suitable for the detection of small submarines. They have a wavelength greater than the maximum projection size of small submarines. Therefore, the wave goes around them and goes on.

                You try to still detect the transfer to the sea from three directions - there will not be enough fleet resources to have so many bearing points. And it’s one thing to get the enemy’s radiogram and its location (what if it’s a small transport?), And the other is to get the desired target, which were the German submarines.
                And they regularly reported their coordinates to the command. Just intercepting a radiogram with the location of the submarine served on a silver platter was not difficult.
                This is from the recollections of one of the few surviving German submariners. He suspected something was wrong when the loss of submarines became catastrophic, and each time after transferring their coordinates, enemy planes and submarine hunters immediately went out on it. He stopped transmitting coordinates, so he could survive I don’t remember what the book is called and what the name of this captain is, but very interesting.

          Sorry, but you are talking nonsense ... At a depth of color, they are practically indistinguishable. You do not think that the torpedo is detected by color. Torpedoes are painted with a special paint, based on epoxy resins, with a preliminary three-layer primer, in order to avoid exposure of the silumin body.
          The so-called fluorescent color is painted in red. "practice", practical torpedoes used for firing practice. After passing along the course and simulating the detonation of a target, it pops up with a candle, and its color helps to quickly detect and catch it with a torpedo.

            You do not think that the torpedo is detected by color.

            And the color is also detected. In the reports of American World War 2 plots, there are sometimes detections of Japanese electric torpedoes painted in yellow.

              Do not confuse WWII technology with today's. Then the torpedoes went almost at a depth of 1,5 - 2 meters, even German ones, with homing equipment, which no other arc in the world had. They were easy to spot. It wasn't until the end of the war that we and the states started making our own acoustic torpedoes. And the Japanese had direct combat torpedoes - where they aimed, they will get there. We called these "blanks" and used their submariners to undermine the ice.

                At the end of the war, only the states and Germany had homing ones. Japan also had its homing ones. Fucking true, but there were. We had no homing in the 2nd world.

        And if it was red, you would ask why is it a fire color?

        Firefighters are better not to touch! And torpedoes need to be painted in the color of the rainbow - to whom they are intended!

      So that it is not visible when it goes to the target. And then the Japanese painted their electric torpedoes in yellow and that's it. There is no trace, but is visible immediately.

    Is the additional screaming feature "Allahbaba", "Lousy Sunnis" and "Islamic Revolution Worldwide" enabled? Will the options with a projector for video with calls from Qom be as an export option?
    And by the way, I’m a man who has nothing to do with the army (I’m not a rocket launcher, yes), but from the DPRK, where are the torpedoes from, from what years? It will be effective, what do you think (do not tease, seriously)?
    and not one law and not one resolution is not able to limit it

    Again, the Kumas are being made, we know, we know, sayings - they’ll climb into the hole from the slogans from the DPRK.

      Seriously, they develop and make them themselves. And not only torpedoes, but anti-ship missiles for submarines launched from torpedo tubes in the DPRK appeared either in 1995, or in 1998. I don’t remember now. And as for efficiency - here the war will show.

    Judging by the photo - they have rubber fairings, which is not a gut ... The radio transparency of these is much worse than the "ceramics". We began to refuse such people back in the 80s. And to obtain high-quality "ceramics" for torpedoes, a very complex and expensive technological process is required. Apparently, the Iranians do not yet possess such technologies. But, - all the same well done. A salvo in a package can cover something in an aircraft carrier group.

    Hi AUG USA ...

    Well, I think modern warships will find a way to protect themselves from torpedoes. Traps, imitators, AU, bomb throwers and sharp maneuvering allow you to avoid being hit. But sedentary oil tankers are an ideal target. So torpedoes will come in handy when Iran is "butting" with the Saudi monarchies. hi

      Torpedo traps were not effective during World War II. There are no RBUs ​​on NATO ships, as there are no anti-torpedoes. The latter are only available on NATO submarines of the latter. Abrupt maneuvering for a long time does not allow evading torpedoes due to their homing.

    Moskitny KSIR The Russian fleet in a week will calm the movement of Arab oil in the world. But for how long? There is no autonomy, but, having fired its 1-2 torpedoes, the boat will have nowhere to return. There will be no bases. You won’t moor at the fishing pier, you won’t recharge on your hands. And, in all countries, oil is not for one or two weeks ... They will suffer .. Not news - fake.

    Read Clay Blair's "Hitler's Submarine War", "War at Sea" by Friedrich Ruge - you will learn a lot. As for the new Iranian torpedoes, this was to be expected, North Korea and Iran are perceived by the West as an evil cornered, so they are preparing to defend themselves to the last , and if they are indoctrinated, believe me, they will be able to do it.
