A very interesting characteristic: the duration of the dive without the use of RDP is up to 3 weeks, with autonomy up to 12 weeks!

[iliya87]

3 weeks can swim without ascent, total autonomous swimming is designed for 12 weeks i.e. without calling at the ports.
for reference, Varshavyanka (option for sale) has autonomy of 6 weeks, and this one has 12. But ours may not come up at all. If you take boats of this class standing on our combat alert, then they are better in all respects of the Korean, for some for the head, for some for a little.

this is how not to pop up? Diesel Varshavyanki, in fact, are not equipped with VNEU. How to recharge without surfacing? - just the presence of VNEU is the main advantage of Koreans

I got it, I won’t need to pop up on Lada to recharge http://rg.ru/2015/09/07/pl-site-anons.html

Ammunition 12 weapons in the torpedo compartment in total (Type 214). The Japanese submarine class Soryu 30 units take ammunition.

Only it will not be Lada, but Kalina - which in general is still just a project, because the domestic VNEU is still undergoing tests. And the Koreans have already built 7th

[Algetxnumx]

And I wonder how long it was built. An analogue of "Varshavyanka"?

[iliya87]

They have been building since the 2000s, although there were already problems. associated with high noise. Then it seems to be fixed.

[DarkMatter]

One of the main differences is the presence of an air-independent power plant. Varshavyanka’s simply not there. Tests for installation on LadoKalina just go. VNEU helps to stay in the underwater position much longer without surfacing, which is one of the most important indicators for a submarine. Thus, on this issue, we are lagging far behind the Germans, because this boat is an export version of their type 212. Next in line is type 216, where a lot of new and tasty is expected.
Therefore, there are only two questions: will we be able to catch up (and possibly overtake, although there is a very big question) leaders in this area in the new LadoKalina project and how many such submarines we can build to replace the old ones over the next decade.

Yeah, it's the Germans who build them for them) I thought it myself ... Well, it's right to say "build together"

[FID]

No, the project is German, and the Koreans insisted that ALL boats be built in Korea ...

[pavelty]

I understand that they are being built in Korean docks, but aren't German specialists doing contract work?

[FID]

No! The Koreans themselves are excellent shipbuilders, especially the Hendeis ...

Thank you, this is understandable, but I was interested in how long it takes to build one boat.

[FID]

Judging by the open data - 5 years, from bookmark to delivery ... 4 years after bookmark - launching and a year of fine-tuning ... I don’t know more precisely.

The boat is named after the fighter for independence from Japan ... And this is not just a coincidence! By the way, a few years ago, the Japanese launched a helicopter carrier on ... a day .... the bombing of Hiroshima ... And this, too, was not a stupid coincidence, although the Japanese authorities justified themselves by coincidence, so it happened, by chance ...

I don’t know how at Varshavyanki, but on boats of the previous project (like on a halibut), special retractable devices were used for underwater running on diesels to a depth of 8 meters. Regarding oxygen and the air purification system, all of our boats, both nuclear and diesel, have approximately the same regeneration systems, that is, as long as there is electricity and emergency regenerative cartridges, the boat can be under water, the main limitation is on food and fuel supplies.

Along the way, another "German" in Korean skin ..
