How much money sawed the US Navy. 2015-2016

111


Comments to the articles on the purchase of military equipment usually contain references to the "cutting of funds." But, you see, it is difficult to "cut" millions, if after three years you have to hand over the finished destroyer.

As a result, last year the American fleet received the following list of samples of naval equipment:

Expeditionary floating base “Lewis Puller”

Landing helicopter carriers “Mistral” proved to be excessively expensive for service in peacetime. In order to reduce costs, the Pentagon proposed the concept of a military floating base based on a large-capacity civilian vessel. Alaska tanker with cut out tanks; on the lower deck there is a hangar with equipment, on the upper deck there is a helipad.



230-meter USNS Lewis B. Puller (T-ESB-3) the size of an aircraft carrier and the cost of 5% of the cost of the destroyer.

Full displacement 78 000 tons.

The standing crew consists of 34 civilians.

If necessary, the number of crews can be increased to 300 people: flight crew, sailors and special forces. Basic aviation armament includes four heavy combat support helicopters CH-53E (or its mine-sweeping variant MH-53E). On board there is a hangar, a store of aviation ammunition and equipment for refueling with aviation fuel. The power supply system is made according to military standards - with full electric movement and the ability to quickly redirect energy to specifically selected consumers.

The mother ship does not carry heavy weapons, the tasks of ensuring its safety are assigned to ships of other classes.

Main tasks: patrolling in selected areas, observation, clearance of fairways, anti-terrorist "attacks" and conducting "point" operations in hostile territories.

According to the command, the use of such “hybrids” will allow to save the resource of expensive warships and redirect them to solving more adequate tasks.

Frigate

Last year, the US Navy wrote off their last frigate Simpson, one of the 50 ships of the Oliver H. Perry type, built during the 1977-1989 period. By the time of the write-off, the Simpson was the only existing ship that managed to sink the enemy ship (Iranian frigate Johan).



The retirement does not promise peace 30-year veteran - in the world lined up a long string of people willing to buy American trash. Ukraine can become one of the potential buyers.

The old frigates were replaced by LCS - high-speed (up to 45 knots) ships of the coastal zone, combining the functions of frigates, minesweepers, patrol cutters, anti-submarine and small rocket ships. The first 24 LCS (0 sub-series) will be equipped with only the simplest defensive armament and a set of aircraft. Starting in 2019. another half dozen LCS with reinforced weapons should be built (the installation of the “budget” version of the Aegis system) and equipped with additional anti-shatter armor are considered.


USS Jackson Adoption Ceremony (LCS-6)


In the past year, the Navy handed over two warships of the coastal zone, the Jackson and Milwaukee, and three more were launched (Little Rock, Omaha, and Gabriel Gifford).

USS Milwaukee (LCS-5) failed two weeks after the start of service.

Submarine forces

In August, the 2015 was commissioned by the twelfth multi-purpose “Virginia” type submarine, named “John Warner”.

USS John Warner (SSN-785) refers to the so-called. “The third subseries”, created for conducting combat operations in shallow water. Compared with its predecessors, it has a rebuilt nose with a “horseshoe” antenna GUS, most suitable for work at shallow depths. There, in the bow, are two six-shot launch glasses with “Tomahawks” or another target load.



Construction of the submarine was conducted with 2013 year. Noteworthy tactic number “Warner”: 785-I account for the submarine stories American Navy.

Additions to the Aegis family

Last year, John Finn (DDG-113) was launched and Raphael Peralta (DDG-115) was baptized - the sixty-third and sixty-fifth Arl Burk destroyers. The first is named in honor of the hero of the Second World War, the second - in honor of the Mexican marines who died in Iraq and received posthumous citizenship.



Both destroyers belong to the Restart sub-series IIA. The changes affected the modification of the Idzhis BIUS with increased capabilities for solving missile defense tasks, a new aviation complex with MH-60R helicopters and a set of unmanned underwater vehicles for search and destruction of mines.

The armament of the destroyer is based on 96 rocket launchers and a multifunctional radar with a peak 6 megawatt output power. The Aegis CMS is capable of automatically accompanying hundreds of targets under water, in the air and in space, distributing them depending on the threat they pose and consistently activating the destroyer defense lines.

The cost of these superboats exceeds 1,8 billion dollars. The average construction rate is about three years.

Simultaneously with the launching of Finn and Peralta, last year the next 69 th destroyer Delbert Black was laid down, belonging to the IIA subsection “Technology Implementation”. In the design of this ship will be combined some technical solutions of the destroyers of the future.

And finally - heavy artillery.

In December last year, Zamvolt was put to sea at the test.

Experimental destroyer, built for eight years and promised to make a revolution in the naval business. According to the concept of application, “Zamvolt” corresponds to the class “cruiser” - a large, well-armed ship for single raids to the coast of the enemy.

Being recreated in metal, “Zamvolt” looks different from what its creators represented. Budget constraints did not allow the creation of a new analogue of Ajis, as a result, instead of a multifunctional destroyer, a highly specialized strike ship was built. A bold experiment that embodies the best achievements of engineering.

The unusual shape of the contours - to increase the seaworthiness and reduce the visibility of the destroyer. Turbo-electric transmission with the possibility of flexible redistribution of energy flows (useful in the future, with the appearance of the “railguns”). Perspective radar with active PAR. Combined rocket-gun armament. Integrated automation, which allowed to reduce operating costs and not to put at risk extra crew members.



In the coming 2016, the US Navy expects an even more impressive replenishment. Next in line is the Gerald Ford-class lead carrier, the Illinois nuclear submarine, and final adoption fleet two new destroyers - mentioned "J. Finn” and “Zamvolt”. Also, it is expected to adopt a maritime patrol drone MQ-4C "Triton", capable of surveying 30 million square meters in one 4-hour flight. kilometers of ocean surface.

But the numbers are certainly impressive))) Instead of spending less on food, they spend extra on fighting obesity. I do not like Zadornov, but here he is absolutely right.

      Look at the ships of the coastal zone - 45 knots is not a fig, if about the same complex as on Grad Sviyazhsk will stand. Americans are not stupid - they do it like ours - everyone will be driving civilian transporters. The price is a penny, but they are not bad ...

        ... I suppose Kaptsov got excited here ..... He didn’t wonder why the displacement ships are quite large (all kinds of boats do not count) the ships have a maximum speed of 30-35 knots ???? .... For the same reason , as in aviation, for a very long time they could not overcome the sound line ..... Only with the advent of jet engines did the situation move .... Moreover, the claimed boat is quite large in size .... lol

        What the hell? For a ship that is designed to strike KR over hundreds of kilometers, such a speed is simply useless. And without rockets I don’t really understand who they are going to chase at 45 knots.

      You are either a master in the fight against trolls, or the banter of the author did not reach you :-)

      Somewhere on TOPWAR there was an article about psychology. And there was described a case in which an anti-Soviet rally was dispersed in the GDR in the 50s. It was just that SA soldiers without weapons were released into the crowd of Germans, and they, being distributed among the crowd of protesters, began to shout anti-Soviet slogans with them, like "Ivan, go home!" After that, the serious anti-Soviet event turned into a farce, and the confused Germans went home without any violence. That was a masterful drain of German trolling! You use the same methods, professional!

    Ochadnye differs to America, another super-duper ships, another "everything is super in America and everything that is said about it is a lie" ... lol
    But for some reason we don’t prostrate ourselves before America, we don’t recognize its exceptional position, we don’t sing the ode to the Burks and Zamwolts (unlike some patriots) lol
    Maybe because we know how to deal with all this, we believe in ourselves, and not in some kind of exclusivity. We build our own, and not try to imitate the praised Americans Kaptsov.
    Yes, we have many times less equipment, but we are not going to attack anyone and we do not need to prove anything to anyone!
    And green candy wrappers, on which different irons are built there, have long cost nothing and are not provided with anything. They are provided with this iron, which is so praised by O. Kaptsov.
    And for every big exceptional priest there are answers that are more asymmetrical and therefore much more effective. We already know how to protect helicopters from anti-aircraft fire ("Vitebsk"), we are able to disable entire ships (the case with "Cook"), we will soon have the S-500 ...
    And most importantly, we do not try to assert ourselves at the expense of others and do not scream at every corner about threats, we do not stoop to the usual yard insult, we call our names what they usually wrap up in beautiful words and invented tolerances.
    So bullshit all these attempts to create universal ships for all purposes (LCS). These irons are "Zamwolts", which are capable of swimming only in the tropics and without the usual escort from the same "Burks" they are nothing. And the rest is an ordinary fleet, just too inflated for a poppy nose wherever possible.
    Stop singing odes to the disgusting person soldier laughing
    PS Although Hollywood knows how to brainwash with patriotism that I am not surprised at the craving of our "patriots" for foreign beads and glass soldier
    And, I almost forgot, where are those vaunted "Raptors", which are super? Something you can't see them point-blank in the Middle East? Maybe all the same sawing and PR? what request laughing
    And we have enough shortcomings, especially in the "passpiles" of funds, but this is not a reason to praise and bow before anyone. winked

        It's fake No. The case with the alleged "blinding" of the radar equipment of the USS Donald Cook (DDG-75) destroyer, which was widely publicized in a number of domestic media and caused a surge of "hurray-patriotic" moods, unfortunately does not correspond to reality. Since due to financial constraints, the Khibiny L-175V electronic warfare system was never installed on Su-24M aircraft. In the 1990s and 2000s, a suspended container version of the KS-418E with the Khibiny REP complex for export Su-24MKs was developed, but beyond the construction of models, the matter did not progress.

    Well, all right, everyone has their own fetish, but bias and bias in his articles so penetrate.
    Also,
    But, you must admit, it’s difficult to “saw through” millions if in three years you need to have a finished destroyer ready.

    Not at all difficult. The endless apupey with the F-35 proves this. The plane seems to already be there, but in it one thing needs to be brought to mind or remade, then another ... And Vaska is listening and eating Lockheed just know yourself manages to inflate the project budget.

      The total number of produced F-35 at the end of April 2015 was 140 units, including 20 test boards owned by Lockheed Martin.

      As of April, the total flying time of the F-35 fleet reached 30 hours. 35 air force pilots were allowed to fly the F-200. For eight years of operation not a single fighter was defeated or lost. The Lightning tests were carried out in conditions far from the ideal training ground, and included such elements as flights from an aircraft carrier, refueling in the air, vertical take-off and landing on the deck of an amphibious assault ship in daylight and dark.

      In other words, the number of ALREADY F-35s built by many times exceeded the size of the park of all its peers (Dasso Rafal, Su-35S, etc.). The plane seems to already be there.

        In other words, the number of ALREADY F-35s built by many times exceeded the size of the park of all its peers (Dasso Rafal, Su-35S, etc.). The plane seems to already be there.

        Yeah. That's just taking into account the fact that the plane is still not considered combat ready, this is not an achievement, but a uniform idiocy.
        The car is damp. The machine has a bunch of limitations. The machine cannot participate in military operations. But - already 140 boards, while for trial operation (which is happening right now) it would be more than enough to have 6-8 sides of each modification, i.e. only 18-24, well, 30 pieces.
        And the serial production of a frankly crude, unfinished aircraft is not too much, as I tell you. This is evidence that the manufacturer has a good lobby.

          Andrey, with all due respect, do you know the degree of completion of the Su-35S?
          Any combat aircraft adopted for service has a lot of defects and childhood sores. Ask about the accident rate of the first MiG-21 and Su-7 and compare it with that of the F-104 "flying coffin".

                This is no longer an epic.
                Not from scratch: it is impossible to fight on these machines. But you can show at air shows (PR above all!)

                Akhtuba State Flight Testing Center (GLITS) and its negative preliminary detention on a Su-35 aircraft:
                About 28 unanswered questions of the 1st list ", ie a list of deficiencies that must be eliminated before the aircraft is put into operation.
                No data found, everything is hidden. About F-35 all the jambs are in sight.

                The question is "half-washed".
                Is it probably easier for you to get an opinion?

                Under the new Minister of Defense, Sergei Shoigu, a special commission was created from authoritative military specialists and representatives of the defense industry complex, which recorded the facts

                      Why voice it? According to unverified data (OBS agency), some pilots who worked with the Su-35S stated that the preliminary detention on the car was negative. Moreover, this conclusion was given in 2012.
                      Was there really a negative conclusion in 2012, or is it an internet fantasy? No reliable data. Let's say that it was.
                      What was fixed and what was not fixed afterwards? No data. In general, no, although there are no confirmed opinions on the network that the Su-35S with the R-77 was tested and everything turned out fine.
                      Those. it’s not at all clear what the problems were, how large they were. Yes, as of 2012, there should have been some kind of problems, well, that’s the trial operation. There is no evidence that the Su-35S encountered any unsolvable problems that cannot be resolved in principle, or at least not resolved today. The same Ancient spoke of them as excellent machines with childhood diseases.
                      Come you. And declare - USE LOST! And as the only argument you present ... the very negative conclusion of 2012, the very fact of its existence is not so that it is absolutely reliable.

                      First, you make an unprovable statement about the condition of the Su-35S, bashfully keeping silent about the fact that it refers to 2012. And when they point you to a date and hint that since 2012 a lot of water has flowed, and that all these shortcomings could have been fixed long ago (if they existed at all) - you instead of somehow confirming your point of view, i.e. :
                      1) Tell us about the shortcomings of the Su-2012S in 35 and where you got it from.
                      2) Tell about which of these shortcomings have not been fixed to this day and where you got it from

                        Because according to my information, the degree of completion of the Su-35S is much higher than the F-35. Moreover, this information is divided into 3 information flows:
                        1) Official Relation. According to them, everything is good at drying, only minor childhood diseases that are inevitable on such a project remain
                        2) Unofficial data from the network. Which generally confirm the official version.
                        3) Data from the Pentagon, which hardly assigns the F-35 "initial combat readiness" and threatens to bring the plane to mind in 2019.
                        What can you offer in contrast? A little more than nothing.
                        Horror stories about the problems of the plane in 2012, and Bondarev's statements in 2013. What does this have to do with airplanes in 2016? What is irreparable in "flickering screens"? How does this flicker correlate with the recently canceled F-35 flight altitude and G-limits? Someone has screens flickering, and someone over 5 is prohibited from flying.

                Yes, and probably worth a breakdown of the modifications to the F-35

                Everything is much simpler. A few years ago, articles appeared periodically that said that a country was going to buy an F-35. But then articles appeared that these countries, instead of purchasing new aircraft, decided to upgrade the old F-15, 16, 18. Actually, today I read an article about the fact that in the USA they allocate money for the design and construction of new nuclear submarines, as well as the purchase of 18 modernized F-18.

          1. There is reality, there are conventions. A combat-ready is just a word.

          140 aircraft, 200 trained pilots, 30 flight hours. a full cycle of flights from land and sea airfields has been completed, refueling has been worked out in the daytime and in the dark, flights to the training ground: the use of air-launched missiles and aircrafts. F-000s are dispersed throughout America, with the goal of introducing airbase personnel to the new machine.

          If this is not a combat-ready (ready-made, combat-ready) aircraft, then the Air Force of all other countries of the world can be immediately deleted as non-existent.

          2. July 31, 2015, F-35B equipped with the first U.S. Marine Squadron
          But?

          3. There is no need for the participation of the F-35 in hostilities

          After all the tests and training firing, what could prevent him from dropping a bomb on a real target?

          4. There used to be a bike, funny - "the designer is Sukhoi, and the technician is wet", but does this mean that Sushki were bad planes.



          After passing all the tests and tests - to call F-35 raw, at least biased

            For high-intensity conflicts of the F-35, it is not yet ready. For a war like Syria, no problem, but why is it there.
            F-35 now you need to raise the level of readiness for flights. the average percentage is 51%, which is the norm for a new aircraft, but still. It should be noted that the percentage of combat readiness is highly dependent on the novelty of the issue. For example, at the Hill F-35A airbase, the average combat readiness is 81%, but there are new aircraft.
            and you need to catch up with the test lag, it is not critically high (not counting those that are set above the plan, it reaches 54% for the F-35C)

          It’s interesting, but does this also apply to su-27, otherwise they were also made around 100 before being adopted?
          "The armament of the Su-27 was adopted by a government decree of August 23, 1990, at that time the Su-27 had been in operation for 5 years already. From combat units, the first in June 1985 were the Su-27 pilots of 60 IAP of the Far Eastern VO (Dzemgi). . Su-1989 aircraft were in service in 27 combat units of the Air Force and Air Defense Forces of the USSR. "
          http://www.sukhoi.org/planes/military/su27sk/history/
          If we talk about the first 100, they are on training and test bases, without them, pilots, mechanics to conduct tests, and so on, have to learn anything anywhere. They are not fully combat ready there; they will be a school desk all their lives. And so they benefit participating in tests, etc. dragging combat-ready aircraft there does not make sense + there would be a delay in training and until they would have completed the completion of all tests of the final version.

            Adoption and removal from service is a formality. It is not related to the technical readiness of the aircraft and its presence in combat units. I don’t remember specific examples, but it happened that for ten years the product has been in operation, and there is no decision on adoption. As well as the opposite - T-34-85, IS-2, was decommissioned just a few years ago, although they have not even been in storage for a long time.

          There, it seems, the main problem is in bringing the software, it will be brought and reinstalled on all previously released ones. And as for raw cars - you can recall our M4, which went into the "series", in which almost every car differed from the previous one, also with an unrealized main point of the terms of reference - the range, and a year after the operation of the M4, the 3M took off.

    With regards to "cuts". Patriots often, deliberately or without realizing it, confuse the theft of funds allocated for R&D with their spending with an unfavorable result, or if the resulting product for some reason turned out to be more expensive than planned. Historically, a new product is an order of magnitude more expensive than previous developments; it never happens that a new generation aircraft costs the same price as the previous one.
    Let's take the history of the creation of such a masterpiece as the Su-27. The fact that this interceptor fighter turned out to be more expensive by SEVERAL orders of magnitude of its predecessor Su-15, I hope is not worth saying. For cost overruns on the Su-27 in Stalin's times, the Sukhoi Design Bureau (including the cleaners) would have moved to a "sharashka", and the GK would have gone to cut the forest with a jigsaw. BUT we know very well that, despite numerous mistakes and miscalculations, the output appeared that plane that the whole of Russia is rightfully proud of.
    Or an example from a completely different field, medicine:
    Last year, $ 100 billion was spent on fighting cancer in the world, 10,3 percent more than in 2013 and significantly more than the 75 billion spent in 2010.

    But the search for a cure for cancer has been going on for decades, who can calculate how much money has been spent? But on the way out, nothing. Trillions of dollars thrown to the wind? That's where you can shout about the cut, but who says that you need to stop the effort? So the cost of finding a cure for cancer will only increase until humanity receives it and to all who find it, all of humanity will thank you very much ...

    "Zumvolt" is an experiment (and the author himself agrees with this). The concept, not the ship, really. At one time in the USSR, T-35 tanks were adopted. They did not become massive, but they were tested in the troops and the experience of their operation was very useful in the design of later models. The T-34 was also once a concept tank. IL-2 - by aircraft concept and so on. Is it possible to say that the first two samples of "thirty-fours" that reached the test site under the personal supervision of the designer and broke down every kilometer were a waste of people's money?

Expensive, you say? Well, I don't even want to comment on the author's delirium: the commissioning of universal submarines, the task of which is to sink our ships and boats at their bases, therefore, they are adapted to shallow water conditions, and more than 6 dozen Berks with new ships, when we have only 1 full-fledged destroyer - the author calls this a saw cut. Yes, we should have cut the Fleet just a little bit!

        in the western ratings, our fleet is either on the 5th or on the 6th place, losing to the states, the Britons, the Japanese and others. In fact, we really have trouble in the fleet: there is, of course, a "light at the end of the tunnel", but everything is sooo long and a lot of sticks are inserted into the wheels. The same GTE threw us back for 3-5 years. Ukrainians are watching fool

            I agree with you in terms of ratings, which is most often nonsense, but in relation to the strength of the fleet, I have to agree.
            In fact, our Navy is limited to ocean ships (1 and 2 ranks) of 10-15 pieces.
            Which are already a long time in the ranks.
            I really look forward to the appearance of our new destroyer. If the series goes at least a few dozen, then we can talk about power. It’s just that the Russian Federation, possessing huge water borders, sprays its forces very much. Enemies are standing around. Of course, if you put everything together, then there will be an impressive force, clearly not comparable with the same states.
            By the way, the same French and shaving their nuclear weapons are exclusively on underwater vehicles, but they won’t immediately shoot them. We won't either. Frankly, if we are afraid to answer for our blatantly shot down aircraft (su-24), then we definitely will not dare to use nuclear weapons.

    Well, how can Kaptsov not lick the American keel? There has been so much talk about the practical benefits of a zamvolta iron, or rather about the absence of any real benefit ... There is nothing besides pure PR. As for the rest of the fleet, yes, they outnumber us many times over. But you just need to remember about the intended purpose. The AUG is an offensive weapon, but we do not have such goals, we do not carry "democracy" to anyone, we do not need to maintain a similar grouping, although this does not negate the need to restore our fleets, especially the Pacific.

      My opinion is that a similar missile and artillery destroyer is also needed by the Russian Navy. At least, this is the type of ship that could bring maximum benefit in the conflicts of the last decade, where the Russian Navy took part

      War in ossetia - artillery shelling of targets on the Black Sea coast of Georgia and Abkhazia, being outside the coverage area of ​​the Georgian Armed Forces.

      Operation in Syria - rocket and artillery shelling + functions of a mobile helicopter base.

        And in general - why in this case unique nulle a ship to duplicate the missile forces and artillery of the ground forces? If the fleet really wants to also take part in forcing the banana republic to peace and shoot along the coast - let the "Kutuzov" be put back into operation.

            In fact, the entire use of the Kyrgyz Republic in Syria now is a mixture of public relations with integrated military tests of the widest possible range of guided weapons systems (and their carriers) under conditions as close to combat as possible. Who in peacetime, for example, will completely shoot the BC 4 MRCs and collect real statistics - how will the launch go, how many CRs will reach the target and where they will get (individual launches cannot give statistics - do you need a relatively large sample)?
            And the main load in real work on the militants is borne by Sukhoi's vehicles with "cast iron" dropped according to the data of the onboard PrNK.

It’s cheaper to bribe the Georgian Minister of Defense and ask them to go deaf and go blind for a couple of days. In extreme cases, there is aviation, and with due care, we can recall the experience of the Second World War, where the Germans had such devices - Artilleriefährprahm.

            Of course everything is so, but I have doubts ... Such ships should be created not for the sake of beating Georgia, but for more serious tasks. And what are the "more serious" tasks for our Navy? Confronting NATO fleets - but making a dozen expensive destroyers (we won't manage anymore) for this task is somewhat absurd, because All the same, NATO's superiority at sea is so gigantic that these destroyers will repeat the fate of WWII battleships. Hence the question - why then in general in this way (with the help of destroyers) climb into the ocean? Those. as if we come to the conclusion that the task of confronting NATO must be solved by some other means. In the issue of pressing Georgia and Syria, there is no urgent need for such ships, and in the Baltic and Black Sea in general, the main caliber of the Navy should be aviation - any of our Su-27/24/34 covers each of these seas with a full load and when flying at low altitude ... At the Northern Fleet and Pacific Fleet, the task of coastal defense, anti-aircraft defense and air defense of the near zone with the support of coastal aviation and air defense is completely solved by the TFR (frigates), which, thank Allah, we can (if we want) rivet more than a dozen. For the presence and display of the flag, it is again cheaper to send a couple of frigates to the coast of Cuba, for this Zumwalt is not needed. We do not need to cover the aircraft carriers either - we have one of them. So fig knows.

    Well, what do you want? They have been under construction since 1988. Soon for 30 years. For this period, you can build 69 ships. In the USSR, BODs of the "admiral's series" similar to destroyers were built at a comparable pace, 2 sides per year. So the USSR did not collapse, there could also be about 70 of them now.

    We are forever concerned about how they saw money over the hill, although it would be more natural to care about how they saw money in their native country. And they are sawing in the way that no dreamers can dream of in a nightmare. And it should be noted that what the author calls a cut is actually a normal waste of money for promising projects.
    The fact that these projects are not always obtained as they were intended is also quite natural, because to assess the risks associated with new technologies is not always possible to eat. And this is just the case when a negative result is also a result.
    In his native country, the cut was initially laid down in any more or less large project financed from the budget, whether it be a road project or a cosmodrome project. Moreover, the proportion of the planned cut is sometimes up to 50% of the project cost.
    Now call me a developed foreign country where this is possible.
