Sevmash - navy forge
According to the state armament program before 2020, the Sevmash plant turned out to be one of several factories loaded with government orders at full capacity.
In addition to orders already voiced, which are already being produced at the plant, the creation of the Borey-A and Yasen-M nuclear submarines will begin in 2012. Another possible construction of diesel submarines "Amur-1650", which may soon be purchased by India. “Cupids” will carry on themselves “Brahmos”, which are a joint development of Indian and Russian designers. The rocket is based on the export version of the domestic P-800 Onyx rocket - the Alliance.
Sevmash - we are already building Borey-A
In fact, work on the construction of the modernized Borey-A at the plant has already begun, the General Director of Sevmash, A. Dyachkov, informs. This will be the fourth submarine of the Borey-A series. 80 percent of the hull of the submarine has already been assembled on the stocks, and they promise to collect 2011 percent of the hull by the end of 100, before the end of the year.
And all this is done by the plant before the start of the contract for the construction of this ship.
At this time, the plant successfully completes the Borey-Alexander Nevsky and Vladimir Monomakh series, while the Yuri Dolgoruky conducts various tests of the Bulava missiles, which will arm all Borey-series submarines. In total, the 8 submarines "Borey-A" and "Borey" will be put into operation.
Brief characteristics:
- Designer - St. Petersburg "Rubin";
- armament - 16 PU launcher "Bulava";
- additional equipment - a rescue chamber accommodating the entire crew.
- length - 170 meters;
- width - 13.5 meters;
- maximum immersion depth - 450 meters;
- crew - 107 people
Modernized submarines "Ash"
Modernized submarines "Yasen-M" will allow Russia to maintain leadership in the segment of submarines capable of destroying heavy surface ships. It is planned to create five such submarines.
Brief characteristics:
- displacement - up to 13.8 thousand tons;
- length - 120 meters;
- width - 13.5 meters;
- height - 9.5 meter;
- maximum immersion depth - 600 meters;
- speed - up to the node 31;
- crew - 90 people.
Severodvinsk, the first submarine of this project, will come off the stocks in 2012 year. Although the submarine was supposed to go out to sea this year, but, according to the General Director of Sevmash, this became impossible due to the poor quality parts obtained to complete the construction of Severodvinsk and the installation of the missile system, which did not pass the state test.
Hope for a quick successful completion of the testing of the Caliber missiles - the latest rocket, which will become the armament of submarines of this series.
The General Director of Sevmash also announced that the profit from the production of submarines would be no more than 12 percent, which affected the standing orders.
Indian diesel "Amur"
In the middle of next year, a tender will be held for the construction of diesel submarines for the Indian Navy. At the tender, the plant will present the "Amur-1650" with improved combat performance. Sevmash continues to refine the boat, having already placed launchers for vertical execution of the BrahMos missiles in it. This refinement will make it possible to launch a salvo missile strike at enemy surface ships. As the designers of TsSKB "Rubin" assure, they managed to significantly reduce the noise threshold of the Amur submarine turbine engine, in addition, they will be equipped with modern radio-electronic equipment and weapons. The project is equipped with an automated control system, technical and combat units. The submarine is equipped with a new multi-mode rowing engine and battery pack with extended service life.
Brief characteristics:
- displacement - 1.8 thousand tons;
- length - 67 meters;
- width - 7 meters;
- underwater speed - up to the 21 node;
- autonomous navigation duration - 1.5 of the month;
- crew - 35 people.
Not only Russia will take part in the tender. Spain, Germany and France want to participate in it. This is a ten billion dollar contract.
The factory does not exclude the possibility that part of the Varshavyanka diesel submarines could be transferred for construction to Sevmash from the Admiralty shipyards.
Construction of surface ships.
"Admiral Nakhimov".
Work on the modernization of this project is suspended for the most part due to the fact that the military department has not yet chosen to upgrade the ship.
Design work on the modernization of the ship "Admiral Nakhimov" is the Northern PKB, with whom the military signed a contract.
The main issue of modernization is the installed weapons, because the Granit rocket, intended for installation, is no longer being produced. The design solution for upgrading and supplying weapons for the Admiral Nakhimov should be completed at the beginning of the second quarter of 2012. It is known for sure that the main power plant will remain unchanged and be atomic.
"Admiral Gorshkov"
This aircraft-carrying cruiser is being upgraded by order of India, the ship’s readiness is currently 90 percent. Next year, the upgraded ship will be handed over to the Indian military.
By the way, the plant is ready to build a domestic aircraft carrier, if such a state order is received. Sevmash has everything you need to fully build an aircraft carrier.
Additional Information.
Rumors about the possible utilization of the Dmitry Donskoy submarine put an end. According to the general director of the Sevmash plant, the strategic nuclear submarine Dmitry Donskoy will not be disposed of.
The plant agreed with the military department of Russia that the submarine will be located in the Belomorsk naval base for various tests of submarines under construction. This submarine will work out combat regimes “boat by boat”, conduct verification of sonar and other equipment and weapons. Note that earlier for these tests a submarine from the Northern fleet, and she had to be distracted from combat duty.
According to the START-3 agreement between the United States and the Russian Federation, the Akula submarines will be removed from combat duty. We are talking about three submarines of this series. The Sevmash plant offers an inexpensive upgrade of these submarines for civilian underwater vehicles or underwater gas carriers.
In addition to orders already voiced, which are already being produced at the plant, the creation of the Borey-A and Yasen-M nuclear submarines will begin in 2012.
