The myth of the period of decline of the Russian Navy

73

"Yes, they say, twenty years of destruction." And they shake their heads in disgust.

So it became interesting, what kind of “abyss” and “devastation” are we talking about?

1995 year. The composition of the naval Fleet nuclear submarines K-157 “Vepr” and K-257 “Samara” were adopted. For export, China built one diesel-electric submarine of the Varshavyanka type.

1996 year. Laid the strategic strategic submarine missile carrier pr. 955 “Borey” (“Yuri Dolgoruky”). Built "Varshavyanka" for the Iranian Navy.

1997 year. The structure of the Navy adopted nuclear submarine K-150 "Tomsk". Laid head diesel-electric boat pr. 677 “Lada”. In the same year, two export “Varshavyanka” were built (including the now lost Indian “Sindurakshak”).

1998 year. The structure of the fleet adopted heavy nuclear missile cruiser “Peter the Great”. Another export “Varshavyanka” type diesel-electric substation was transferred to a foreign customer.

1999 year.The fleet adopted a large anti-submarine ship "Admiral Chabanenko."

2000 year. Two destroyers built on the 956-E export project (Hangzhou and Fuzhou) were handed over to the naval forces of China.

2006 year. A strategic K-551 submarine "Vladimir Monomakh" and the lead frigate 22350 Ave. ("Admiral Gorshkov") were laid. Laid on the corvettes "resistant" and "perfect". The following destroyer of the 956-EM Ave. (Ningbo) was handed over to the Navy of China.

2007 year. Notable events happened.

2008 year. The corvette “Steregushchy” and experimental diesel-electric submarines B-90 “Sarov” were accepted into the Navy. New ships were not pledged that year.

In the same year, the Indian Navy was transferred to the aircraft carrier Vikramaditya (subjected to the global modernization of the Admiral Gorshkov).

2014 year. The fleet consists of two nuclear submarines (the multipurpose Severodvinsk and the strategic Vladimir Monomakh), two diesel-electric submarines and the Corvette “Resistant”.

Two diesel-electric submarines B-262 “Stary Oskol” and B-265 “Krasnodar” came into operation

LEGEND OF THE CARD

For the successful completion of each stories the name of the ship must be mentioned twice. Date bookmarks. And the date of transfer to the fleet.

But this happens infrequently. Too infrequently to not pay attention to it. There is a suspicious imbalance - around 40 of the warships laid down during the 2001-2015 period. and only the 15s put into operation, despite the fact that most of these fifteen were laid in an even earlier period (the Severodvinsk nuclear submarine was laid in the 1993 year, the Dagestan patrol was built with the 1991 of the year, the head Borey was laid in 1996, the story of the head “Lada” also began in the nineties).

Even the most modest and relatively simple in design ships rust at the outfitting walls for a whole decade. We must work seriously on this.

The moment of the bookmark still has little to say. Put on the slipway mortgage section and fasten a copper plate - work for the day. But how much time it takes to complete the construction of the ship, its saturation with weapons and equipment, followed by checking all systems for operability and compatibility, nobody knows.

It is for this reason that the commissioning of the atomic cruiser “Peter the Great” could have surpassed the entire string of modern corvettes and frigates by the cost and laboriousness. 250-meter giant, twenty six thousand tons. Two C-300 anti-aircraft systems, two reactors and a backup KTU on conventional fuel, eleven radars, and a total load of more than 300 missiles for various purposes. It costs a lot. And then they will complain to us about the complete impotence of domestic shipbuilders, who seemed to have not done anything for the past two decades.

So what is this dispute about?

If we estimate the number and quality of the ships being commissioned, their size, armament and the capabilities of their electronic systems, the following will be literally. The possibilities of Russian shipbuilding did not disappear anywhere and appeared again. Throughout all 25 years, they have always been at about the same level. “Bursts” of activity were followed by brief periods of calm, and everything repeated again. Ships were built at all times. For example, the legendary submarine "Kursk" was built in just two and a half years (1992-94).

Finally, it is worth remembering that, along with ships for the Russian Navy, our shipbuilding industry managed to build a whole range of warships for export, including (in addition to those listed in the table) six missile frigates for the Indian Navy, two patrol ships for Vietnam and 15 submarines. Without taking into account the modernization of previously delivered weapons! For example, all Indian submarines, one after another, were upgraded with the installation of new hydro-acoustics and rearmament of the Caliber cruise missiles (the Club-S export version, since the Calibers were shipped for export five years earlier than they were seen in the domestic fleet).

And after such a huge amount of work done, naive exclamations are heard about the loss of experience in building warships, the lack of qualified personnel and the shipyards themselves.

The navy itself also did not disappear anywhere, the sailors carried out military service in the expanses of the World Ocean day after day.



A large cruise of the Northern Fleet ships to the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, during which the debut of the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov (1995-96) took place. Full missile salvo MRK "Dawn" (1996). Meet the New Year in the Sargasso Sea with boats of the “animal division” (1998). Tracking the American AUG in the Mediterranean Sea in conditions close to combat, for which the commander of the Kursk was awarded the title Hero (1999 g.). Shooting “Granites” from the board of the underwater missile carrier K-119 “Voronezh” during the strategic command-and-control exercise “Zapad-99”. The cruiser “Varyag” in Shanghai in 1999 at the celebration of the 50 anniversary of the PRC ... This is only a small part of the facts about the everyday life and exploits of the Russian fleet.

So there has never been any “gap” from which we supposedly have to get out. The Russian fleet has always existed, regularly conducting exercises and performing combat services in the ocean. And he regularly received new ships in exchange for decommissioned obsolete units, in order to maintain his required strength.


And this moment is truly great,
when under the thunder of orchestras and ovations he
startled, off the ground
- the one from which we can not tear myself away ...

      And even in such successful years:
      2010 year. The head frigate of 11356 Ave. (“Admiral Grigorovich”) and the diesel-electric boat B-261 “Novorossiysk” were laid. The diesel-electric boat B-585 “St. Petersburg” was put into operation.
      2011 year. The frigate Admiral Essen and the diesel-electric boat B-237 Rostov-on-Don were laid. The Corvette “Savvy” was adopted as part of the fleet.

      Is this volume for a country that considers itself at least "not a regional power"? Frigates, corvettes, small diesel submarines. Everything for the coastal zone, and the maximum for some improvement in the situation in the Black Sea, and if they are smeared across ocean fleets ... Then this is nothing at all ...

          The best defense is an attack!))) But seriously, from the near sea zone you can only defend against reconnaissance, submarine saboteurs and attempts to land troops on the coast. And the article is controversial, it immediately guesses "g.i., Slavs!", There is no objectivity. Against the background of the destruction of the fleet, these achievements seem scanty, because no one can deny that Russia, in terms of the capabilities of a surface, at least, the composition of the Navy, is not comparable to the Soviet Navy.

      Probably the respected author this time decided to "shock" the audience. T e give a controversial thesis in advance to provoke discussion.

      I am sure the author himself understands that he is disingenuous - by listing the lists of what has been done. The first years after the collapse, it is possible that something surrendered by "inertia"

      Moreover, we all understand that a simple enumeration is not an indicator - you just need to COMPARE - the pace of commissioning and updating under the USSR - and after. The composition of the fleets in the USSR and now. Then immediately everything becomes clear

      What kind of nonsense ?????????

      20380 is generally the p-th p-t among the p-v, which are generally not seen anywhere ...

      The 955 Northwind project on 60% is assembled from the backlogs and components of the 3 generation boats.

      Lada turned out to be a rare GU, even when the news recently appeared that it was quieter than 636, serious people were joking about it, right, but standing at the pier all the time making noise?

      11356 and 636 for the Black Sea Fleet are an exclusively temporary measure, there was a choice either this or in the near future nothing from the word at all and the Black Sea Fleet will simply evaporate as such.

      Almost all the ships that are part of the Navy are outdated, and are in a deplorable state. The comrade at the Pacific Fleet at the 1155's recently served, the hell takes from his stories about the ships ...

      Examples of a complete and fierce ass can be given many more, because the ass in our Navy, alas, is almost everywhere .... Fact 1 is our fleet in DEEPER DECLINE, BREAKING THAT WHICH WASN'T SUCCESSFUL UNTIL THE TIME, Despite all the RESOURCES AND FORCES involved. And unlike the land and air forces, a negative trend could not be reached there, unfortunately, and this decade definitely will not succeed alas ...

    So there has never been any “abyss” from which we supposedly have to get out.
    Oleg, I made an article with statistics on the tonnage and the number of ships and vessels commissioned for the Navy, as well as on the production of aircraft. Not too lazy to count to sit. But it has not yet been published. Look at the abyss there. There is a very beautiful curve. I didn’t juggle or embellish anything. I just took the known numbers. You yourself could have done this if your goal was not to prove "how good it was in the 90s", but to get to the bottom of the truth. All infa is publicly available at http://russianships.info. But there you have to sit and rummage, and you are apparently lazy.

              And it is highly unlikely that the USSR, which copied everything, could have accidentally missed such an interesting event.

                In addition to the nozzle, the Americans were, for example, even without a clue about the distributed traction control system - they thought that on the Yak-38/141 it was controlled by a 6-processor onboard supercomputer, although in reality on the Yak-38 it consisted of two levers and two wings (easier than AKM).
                The Americans, even having received all the technology on Yak, could not do this themselves, because Zadornov was not joking

    1995 year. The structure of the Northern Fleet was adopted by nuclear submarines K-157 “Boar” and K-257 “Samara”. For export, China built one diesel-electric submarine of the Varshavyanka type.
    1997 year. The Navy adopted the nuclear submarine K-150 “Tomsk”. The main diesel-electric boat of 677 Ave. “Lada” was laid. In the same year, two export “Varshavyanki” were built (including the now-lost Indian “Sindurakshak”).
    1998 year. The fleet adopted a heavy nuclear missile cruiser "Peter the Great". Another export diesel-electric submarine of “Varshavyanka” type was handed over to a foreign customer.
    1999 year. The fleet adopted a large anti-submarine ship “Admiral Chabanenko”.
    2001 year. The head corvette of 20380 Ave. (“Guarding”) is laid. The fleet adopted a nuclear submarine K-335 “Cheetah”.
    2003 year. Laid the second corvette, etc. 20380 (“Clever”). A patrol ship was commissioned Tatarstan.


    K-157 “Vepr” - an order from the USSR, the bulk of funding and equipment ordered in the USSR. The boat was completed in the Russian Federation and then with a shift in the year, because they could not find additional financing.
    K-257 “Samara” - similarly, the order of 89 of the year under the 90 program.
    K-150 “Tomsk” - again, the order of the 90 year, the hull and equipment were formed in the USSR, and the main stage of inertia work in the 92-93.
    Peter the Great - was built in the USSR, they raised money for a piece of grain for completion. Because of this, instead of the 2 Fort-M design complexes, only one was installed (there was no money for the second), part of the equipment was generally taken from decommissioned ships or from warehouses of enterprises.
    Admiral Chabanenko - again the USSR, and they planned to build a series of such new generation BOD destroyers. At the end of the 92 year, the ship was launched, and after 6 years, they collected money bit by bit for testing, armament, and commissioning.
    K-335 Cheetah is the first Russian nuclear submarine to be laid down and built in a new country. However, again, the 91 program of the year, with the formation of the corps in the first months of 91. This helped the boat to be born.
    Tatarstan is a Soviet ship, under the project of new IPCs, however, it did not take off and the new IPC grew to Hawk (Undaunted, Yaroslav the Wise), and Zeleny Dol began to look for options, eventually building its corvette. However, the country fell apart, the present Tatarstan was built under the Indians, but they jumped on 11356. The ship gives out the way and the old architecture and ultra-budget weapons package with a wasp.

And for the fullness of the poured glass, it was necessary to enter the "construction time"! And this is for after, when in the USSR the nuclear submarine was baked like cakes.

And how long did it take from the laying of the Yuri Dolgoruky to the delivery of the fleet ?! And even now, forgive me, except for nuclear submarines, which ships of rank 1-2 are being built? If, according to the new classification, frigates are, of course, attributed to them, then there is something, and again, what are the construction times?

But they cannot reliably write, because the situation is awful. The data given by the author shows only one thing - the number of ships built negligible for our country. After 91 years, Russia destroyed almost all of its shipyards. And the rest almost all the time existed due to foreign orders. What is being built now is not comparable with the USSR.

Why are export orders counted in a heap, what does this have to do with the state of the Russian Navy? What, will they all give us the built ships and submarines back? Why the author is silent that for years no nuclear submarines have entered combat service, and even now there are less than ten combat-ready ones.

    A large campaign of the Northern Fleet ships in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean Sea, during which the debut of the aircraft-carrying cruiser Admiral Kuznetsov (1995-96 gg.).

    From the memoirs of Admiral retired Selivanov Valentin Egorovich in 2009 g (commander of 5 Mediterranean Squadron in Soviet times.

    From the point of view of the aircraft carrier, the Admiral Kuznetsov project is not bad. In 1996, the American admiral in the Mediterranean looked at my takeoff and landing at Kuznetsov. He was sure that the plane could not take off from the first and the third position - there is ninety-five meters of take-off and in addition a springboard. But I give the command to take off, the planes took off easily. So this is a good aircraft carrier, it’s bad for only one thing - a disgusting electromechanical installation. The largest ship of Russia, two and a half thousand people, more than fifty aircraft, but there is no movement.
    Kuznetsov was built on a kink, in the 1989 year, it was the time of the decline of the Soviet Union. And Kuznetsov, figuratively speaking, had a “bad heart” from birth. From the very beginning, low-quality pipes were installed in its boilers. These tubes are constantly bursting, leaking. The power of the boilers was designed at 30 nodes, but the boilers were tested when they were delivered to the fleet by only a third of the capacity. After receiving this ship fleet all the tubes tried to replace. I personally sent a team to the Urals to make these tubes for us. Then with a sin in half in sovereign Ukraine in Nikolaev the pipes were bent appropriately. But still they continued to flow. Therefore, we could not bring boilers to full capacity. The boiler should give pressure to the atmospheric 105, and gave a maximum of 60. Should give a hundred tons of steam per hour to give, and gave forty.
    What is a boiler accident? The water from the burst tube flows and extinguishes in the boiler of the nozzle. It is necessary to remove the boiler for repair. But in order to fulfill it, it is necessary to cool the boiler for twelve hours to a temperature of at least sixty to seventy degrees, so that a sailor in an asbestos suit could get into this boiler. Twelve more hours are needed to dismantle the reinforcement. Then it is necessary to water each tube from above to see which tube has burst and where. Then to seal this tube, check all the others, and only after all this put the boiler into operation. With the Stakhanov pace of the team’s work, when working for wear, this whole cycle takes at least three days. And these tubes flew literally one by one. During the 1996 campaign, only two boilers often worked for me, and how many times it happened when I stayed on one boiler at all, which is a speed of no more than four knots. At such a speed, the aircraft carrier does not obey the helm, it is blown away by the wind.
    In 1996, the fleet was already in a terrible state. But it was necessary to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the Russian fleet somehow. To commemorate the anniversary, we decided to make a trip to Kuznetsov in the Mediterranean Sea and back. Everyday business for Soviet times was now an extremely difficult and dangerous undertaking.
    We went to sea on the word of honor. The fact is that during the previous release of Kuznetsov to the sea, it hit the storm, podzasolit the pipe, lost its course, and was nearly thrown onto the shore of Novaya Zemlya. The ship needed serious repairs, but Admiral Yerofeyev reported to me that the aircraft carrier was ready for the march. And we went to sea. Already there it became clear that two boilers were in general polluted - half-trained sailors took plain outboard water instead of distillate into the boilers. But in one way or another, we went to sea in January, pledged foreign naval attaches from all Mediterranean countries, England and Germany.

    By the beginning of February it turned out definitively that the situation with the boilers is critical. Several times we faced a choice: to continue the dangerous march, or to return the faulty ship home. We decided to go further, to return - would mean to disgrace the entire three hundred year history of the Russian fleet. On the prestige of Russia thought. Although, now I understand that if we suffered a catastrophe, it would be a shame even greater and great tragedy. We were the closest to the tragedy, having risen with an official visit to Malta.
    I remember now. We sit at the reception at the Minister of Defense of Malta in the palace. The liaison officer reports to me: "The wind increases up to thirty meters per second. Not a single boiler works at Kuznetsovo!" Immediately I estimate: the anchor chain is etched on us for a hundred meters, the length of the hull is three hundred and four meters, up to the rocks two hundred and fifty meters. The ship’s sailboat is huge, dragging it onto the rocks. I broke off negotiations with the minister, rushed to the heliport by car. By all flight rules, landing on the deck with such a wind is prohibited, but the helicopter pilots put me on the Kuznetsov deck. I already had a presentiment of the greatest shame in history. The largest ship of Russia in the year of the anniversary lies broken on the rocks of Malta. It would see on TV the whole world.
    The stern was carried to the rocks, and we worked with the boiler with the mothers and prayers. As a result, one boiler started. He gives the power of a half turn node. This is not enough, but our approach to the rocks at least slowed down. Finally, another boiler was put into operation. Thank God and the sailors from the warhead 5, the disaster did not materialize. I do not know how I would later live, if I had killed Kuznetsov, after this it would be better not to live at all. With sin in half on two cauldrons, they slowly dragged themselves to Severodvinsk. I brought the ship home, returned to Moscow, and wrote a report on the dismissal.

    Now he has undergone a major overhaul again, everything seems to be in order, but, as I understood, the pipes still flow sometimes, although, of course, not in the same way as before. He is prepared for the next year to march. Now they write a lot of horror in the newspapers about this ship, that it is semi-abandoned, nobody needs it. This is, in general, close to the truth. You can not imagine the parking of an aircraft carrier in the north. The aircraft carrier is tens of thousands of tons of steel, hundreds of thousands of square meters of decks, cabins, hangars, compartments. It’s simply unrealistic to warm it all up on your own in the conditions of northern winter! There, on the fourth to fifth deck, step on foot, knee-deep due to fogging. He's all frozen. Once in a lifetime, the Kuznetsov was more or less warmed up - in the Mediterranean. That's when he was a real handsome man. And so, he is constantly with frozen portholes. The aircraft carrier should not spend the winter in the north. He dies there.
    In addition, the ship is idle. There is no combat work. But it serves almost two and a half thousand people. Two and a half thousand people freeze there in a limited space and do nothing, they are bored. There, every day someone from the crew hangs himself, they will cut each other, then they will be killed.
    Why are American aircraft carriers always in excellent condition - they are all the time on the march, in combat service, the crews have no time to do anything. Kuznetsov should spend the winter in the Mediterranean, which was done in the same Soviet times, when all aircraft carriers were diverted to the warm seas for the winter. "Kiev" served the most because it was constantly in the Mediterranean Sea. He worked there, flew there, excellent commanders grew, people served and were proud of such a service.
    If the "Admiral Kuznetsov" does not go out into the ocean, it will not last even five years. You can save it only with money for repairs and access to the sea.

    "Yes, they say, twenty years of destruction." And they shake their heads in disgust.

    So it became interesting, what kind of “abyss” and “devastation” are we talking about?


    Retired Admiral Selivanov V.E., 2009

    ... I'll give you a more specific example. A year and a half ago I was in the Black Sea Fleet. From the commander's office we are looking at the Ordzhonikidze plant, standing there under repair of the Ochakov BPK. I ask the commander, when will you repair it? He replies: "One billion two hundred million is needed for repairs. I was able to allocate fifteen million for this year. Think about it when I repair it ..." This is how Kuroyedov sits without money.
    I recently talked a lot about our trip to the Indian Ocean. Like, here we are! They went out into the ocean, held exercises. The fleet is reborn! But the money was sent to him not from the budget of the Ministry of Defense. And they were singled out from some reserve fund of the president himself, apparently, as part of an election campaign. And now, we must wait for the next election in order to find money for the next long hike?
    If we used to have ten nuclear submarines a year, then it was a different economy. The whole country was working for defense. And now the whole country rests on different Khodorkovsky. If these billions, instead of the pockets of the oligarchs, fell into the defense budget, of course, nuclear aircraft carriers would now have nuclear submarines as well.
    I have a good friend, who in Soviet times was responsible for placing orders for the construction of new military equipment. During my tenure as chief of staff, we often saw each other. On my complaints about the financing, he showed me the state order for combat aircraft - it was in 1996, not 10, not 12 pieces! I ask him, but how many were there in Soviet times? He answers - more 1000 a year has happened!
    I was on good terms with Defense Minister Sergeyev, and after my dismissal we somehow met him in one case. I remembered this story. And he shows me a plan for getting new combat equipment on the 1998 year, in which in the section "combat aircraft" there are three ... spare aircraft engines. Not airplanes or helicopters, but only three engines! That is, imagine the angle of incidence between ten submarines and a thousand planes per year and three aircraft engines.
    This is a vertical fall into the abyss.

    In 1993, I attended the talks between the Ukrainian Prime Minister and our Chernomyrdin. We discussed the fate of the unfinished Soviet ships "Varyag" and "Ulyanovsk", which I already told you about. Ukrainians offered Russia to buy them back. Chernomyrdin asks me if we need Varyag. I say that, of course, need. And he answers me literally: "Yes, you, whatever you ask, you need everything. There is no money. You will manage!" As a result, Ukraine sold both ships for scrap. Varyag had a readiness of 73%. "Ulyanovsk" was cut into needles even earlier.

    Remember the Guardian campaign about how "the admirals sold aircraft carriers abroad." I myself participated in all this, I will say that this is complete nonsense. In 1993, conversations began that Minsk and Novorossiysk should be sold. They had stood at the coast for five years, reduced crews served on them, there were constant fires, they could not go out to sea, it was not possible to restore them either by means or in time, and in general they were not combat-ready. They must be disposed of. But that was before the October events. The assistant said to me: "You must bear in mind, the Reds will come, they will be hanged for such a thing." And then we still believed that the Reds would come. Therefore, in order to prepare an "alibi" for myself, I sent an official letter to the Minister of Defense and Chernomyrdin, the head of government. They approved this decision, the ships went for recycling. And then, like most of the decommissioned ships, they were prepared for sale abroad. The South Korean firm Yan Distribution has bought Novorossiysk from us for four and a half million, that is, one hundred and seventy dollars per ton of uncut scrap metal. Now it is not worth that money either; it is rather difficult to sell a ton for one hundred dollars. They carved Novorossiysk, but incurred losses of five million, paid a bunch of fines. They asked us to sell them "Minsk", offered another two million. At first, they were supposed to make it a floating hotel for the upcoming World Cup. But that year they did not agree on the price. A year later, they still bought a "Minsk" from us for an entertainment center in China. They decided to turn it into a huge museum of Soviet weapons in Guangzhou. When he was brought to China, I flew there with the representatives of the CWR. The sight of the aircraft carrier was the saddest. But we were shown projects of how they will turn it into a real palace on the water. We didn't even believe it at first.
    But two years later I went there with my wife for the opening and was amazed. In the evening, “Minsk” stands all in the lights, as if the Day of the Fleet, the entire deck sparkles, the searchlights shine on the Chinese flag over it. The layout of the keel antenna rotates like a real one. Both I and my wife wept, seeing such beauty. In the morning we went to the ship itself to the museum.
    On board fifteen thousand visitors. A ticket is twelve dollars for adults, six dollars for children. Just an amazing museum of Soviet weapons. I later brought them to our Central Naval Museum, to the museums of the Russian army and astronautics. For a fee, they then did thematic exhibitions at Minsk.
    The museum is beautiful. They kept everything on it, as it was when he was still in the Mediterranean Sea. Soviet arms were put there, this is a real glorification of Soviet weapons.
    The places are full, they have lifted everything that is below the deck, huge spaces were freed there, even the football field was laid. There is a concert hall in the hangar, where the Belarusian ensemble from Minsk performed at the opening.
    In the mess room - a cafe. I went there. Looked at the menu, there is an admiral's lunch, an officer's and a sailor's lunch. I ordered a sailor's lunch. They bring me salad, borsch, rice with meat sauce. And in the basket bring bread - black, like shoe polish. I did not understand, I asked the local authorities why the bread is so black. And he answers me that the Russians gave them the standard ship menu, and they decided to do everything exactly as in this menu. So the Chinese have read black bread in the menu, and for a long time they thought how to make bread black. In the end, it just painted.
    After this museum there was a mixed feeling of pride in Soviet power and wild longing for the current collapse.

    We all know well that the 90s under the Ebn for the Navy is a "sawing" and "spraying" of the Soviet Navy fleet into needles and a dump - not even a half-term NK. angry And the completion of the rare sides at the same time was a hurt for the Soviet ship. fool

    Read. Ominusovat. I omit the fact that the author of the article, in evidence of his thesis, cites the number of ships laid down and handed over to the fleet without comparison with what was being built in the USSR. But that's not the point. The criterion chosen by the author is still very useful for assessing the status of the SHIPBUILDING INDUSTRY, but not the Navy. About the state of the ships in operation - not a word, about the state of the coastal infrastructure - nothing, about the condition of the Navy personnel - silence ... I have nothing to do with the fleet, but IMHO, the above is much more important for assessing the condition of the Navy than the number of ships delivered . In addition, the author classified the ships that were sold over a hill in a positive manner for fleets that cannot be assigned to the Russian Navy in any way (neither branches, nor subsidiaries, and even allies). Well, how do you evaluate this opus?

      Three years ago, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu personally intervened in the situation with Igor Belousov and authorized a Novaya Gazeta journalist to cover the construction of the sea rescuer.

      The girl journalist lit up as is. The picture is tragic and critical. Such total theft leads to the destruction of all structures of the state and to its death. Really our rulers do not see this. And if they see, then why don't they stop it? Do they have their own goals?

        Dear ones, I would like to draw your attention to Uralvagonzavod, where the Americans have settled down as advisers and accountants. Do you think they will allow them to make at least a thousand of the latest Armata tanks for the Russian army, and the UAC one hundred PAK FA? BIG QUESTION ...
        UVZ and KLA are far from an exception, but the bitter colonial RULE imposed on us by our winners in the Cold War!
        And such "advisers and auditors" in Russia in all ministries, departments, concerns and banks 10 people - DIVISION, and their salary comes from the Russian budget for 000 dollars a year, these are two SSBNs "Emperor Alexander 2"! Guys, look at the root!

        Of course their own. And these goals are very "noble": to build communism for yourself, your loved ones, inside a devastated country. And what is interesting, they quite successfully cope with their goals, themselves allocating billions for the next project, "unparalleled" and they themselves saw these billions.
        Naturally, not forgetting to allocate some crumbs for business. After all, if you do not highlight and the results of the development of the allocated not be promoted in all the media, including the Military Review, then some people may have bad questions, as they recently arose among truckers. And the emergence of bad questions can lead to bad questions for those living in "communist villages" such as Rublyovka. Do they, the "communists" need it? And here we are throwing our caps into the air for and without reason.
        Here I was several years ago in St. Petersburg, visiting a former employee of the Vodtranspripor plant.
        So he talked with tears in his voice about those horns and legs that remained from this plant.
        And the little factory is not quite simple. At one time, he was the main manufacturer of sonar systems for Soviet nuclear submarines, including for "Sharks". And now the plant seems to be in place, and the fence is where it was, but behind the fence there are mainly commercial warehouses, etc., which has nothing to do with the profile of the plant. And now a question for filling. Will such a stripped-down enterprise be able to produce the hydroacoustics necessary for the fleet in the required volumes and with the required quality? The answer is simple: hardly. But the plant administration is quite capable of posing as something capable of producing these systems. And this means that today, under these FUTURE systems, we can knock out solid funding and cut it behind a high fence and under the heading "secret owls".

    sort of a long column along a pre-laid route, stepping on each other's heels, and twists his head around. It so happened that in front, about five meters away, our naval officers were walking a few in number. They turned their heads very actively, but spoke quietly among themselves. When we left the superstructure and it was already possible not to step on the feet in front of those walking, I tried to catch them. It really became very interesting what they were talking about. Until we got off the ship, they did not say anything interesting, secrecy was at its best. And the dialogue on the quay was something like this: well, they have everything beautifully, buttons with light bulbs, but if, in fact, everything is the same with us, it will only be rougher. They were silent for a while. Another says: they just swim regularly, and we are standing at the wall. They were silent. Then they say: yes, and if we go out to sea, then it’s not a fact that we can shoot. Yeah, but if we swindle, then it’s unlikely to get caught. They laughed bitterly and went to their BOD, which had already taken root at the pier.

    Well, in those days, the entire fleet did not have enough fuel to launch at least one ship at sea. And now, here you are:
