The head base minesweeper "Alexander Obukhov" of the 12700 project is transferred from St. Petersburg to Kronstadt to undergo factory road trials

The Alexander Obukhov was built at the Sredne-Nevsky Shipbuilding Plant (St. Petersburg) and is the lead ship of the 12700 project.

The project was developed at the Almaz Central Metallurgical Bureau. The official ship laying (building number 521) took place in September 2011.

“The minesweeper (the total displacement of about 800 tons) has the world's largest ship hull made of monolithic fiberglass, formed by vacuum infusion. The hull formation in the matrix was completed in December 2012 of the year, the hull was removed from the extension to the open site on 26 in March on 2014, and launched on 27 in June on 2014. The mooring trials of the ship were launched on February 1 of the year 2015, ”the blogger reports.

Which fleets will the minesweepers pass? First of all, the Black Sea Fleet.

Well, yes, he is needed there. It will be a trawl to drive Ganapolsky with a hacksaw, from the cable.

- Miners are needed everywhere. Here is just something with a name ... I mean that at the beginning of May 1982 in the Zolotoy Rog Bay of Vladivostok, right at the pier, the Alexander Obukhov floating shipyard sank. You can type in a search engine. Obukhov Alexander Grigorievich himself is a sapper hero, there are no words, but it is not in the tradition of the sea to give the names of the sunken ships by the DUI to new ones, including military ones. I was an eyewitness to this event, like many Vladivostok residents.

The ship is new, but already dirty the wall somewhere ..
A series of 3 ships ... sorry

[Temples]

So it is smeared with champagne.

[Tor5]

Good is business! ... That's right: four minesweepers - four fleets!

[Signal]

Not Zumwalt, of course But thanks for that!

[Kibl]

The Black Sea Fleet, of course, needs minesweepers, but how many explosive shit has remained since the times of World War I and the Great Patriotic War in the Baltic! Moreover, not only simple but also chemical weapons, so there is plenty of work !!!

[Raptor_RB]

Seven feet under the keel! Still, a new technology for building the hull. I hope the operation will be hassle-free.

[dchegrinec]

It is very gratifying that Russia has become a great naval power, as it always has been!

[Forest]

There is still no end to work. If the submarine fleet is strong, but the surface fleet is strong only in the Caspian Sea. We need cruisers, destroyers, frigates, UDC, an aircraft carrier not bad for the Northern and Pacific fleets.

[Petrov]

Guys! Reread (or just read) Gorshkov's book "The Sea Power of the State". under him, the USSR became a "great naval power".
One of his "railways" was worth what. But not mature enough. And so - Chesma, Navarin, Sinop.

Dear, what are you talking about? Until the GREAT SEA POWER, we "plow and plow." Most of our fleets are the legacy of the USSR. And these ships are aging. We have not been building cruisers, destroyers or aircraft carriers for a long time (I will not say anything about aircraft carriers at all What greatness are you talking about here? We have a single copy of the Yasen MPSS in stock, and it is not yet clear when Kazan will be launched. We cannot create the Leader in hardware yet (although we need new destroyers the day before yesterday). We are a submarine project. Lada (with anaerobic power plant) procrastinate what year?
Hurry. You, dear, hurry.

[Wiruz]

Yeah But ships of this class should be built in packs, without any ceremonies there on the occasion of laying / launching

[captri]

Minesweeper is a plowman of the sea, in addition to trawling, he performs many other tasks. so the fleet has a great need for such ships.

[kostya-petrov]

how many such minesweepers are needed to trawl approaches to naval bases?
Moreover, we have a lot of naval base and points of basing ships and submarines.

[Evgeny RS]

How? Him that dragged from St. Petersburg to Kaliningrad before the choo test?

[spravochnik]

It is strange why in tow and for testing only now. I saw him on the day of the Navy (in July) in Baltiysk.

[Evgeny RS]

By the method of vacuum infusion - this is not Khuhra-Mukhra))

[Kyrgyz]

Not Zumvolt of course, but better than nothing
