The most labor-intensive stage of modernization of the cruiser "Admiral Nakhimov" has been completed

12

Yesterday, August 18, at Sevmash (Severodvinsk), a Project 11442M ship was withdrawn from the loading basin. Thus, one of the most labor-intensive stages of modernization of the domestic heavy nuclear missile cruiser "Admiral Nakhimov" has been successfully completed.

Recall that the aforementioned cruiser was laid down in May 1983. The ship entered service in the USSR Navy in 1988. Until 1992 it was called Kalinin. Work on the modernization of the TARK began in 2013. The transfer of the updated "Admiral Nakhimov" to the Russian Navy is scheduled for 2022.



It should be noted that only the hull will remain from the "old" cruiser after the repair. Not only the arsenal of a combat vessel has undergone modernization, but also radar stations, communications, navigation and electronic warfare systems. Also, the warship reactor was reconstructed and the pipelines and electrics were completely replaced.

With regard to weapons, the "Admiral Nakhimov" will receive 80 universal launchers 3S14, allowing to place cruise missiles of the "Caliber" family, supersonic "Onyx" and even hypersonic "Zircons" on board. The latter allow you to hit a target at a distance of more than 1000 km and develop speeds up to Mach 8.

Such a powerful arsenal of missiles will allow "Admiral Nakhimov" to confront a whole group of enemy ships alone.

    Several ships of the first rank for displaying the flag, and no more. With the modern development of anti-ship weapons, it has become a necessity to move away from large ships ... Unmanned ships are on the way and so on ...

      They still need to be built .. It's good that the Eagles did not have time to put on pins and needles.

        Unfortunately, most likely only Nakhimov will be modernized. Peter will work on what he has now.

      The number of weapons placed on a ship is in direct proportion to its displacement. You can't place much of it on a small ship.
      1) An air defense complex, like the S-400, takes up quite a lot of space, on the same frigate 22350 it will not physically fit. This means that the squadron will not have good air defense.
      2) To overcome serious air defense, a fairly decent ammunition is needed, especially since it is problematic to replenish it at sea.
      3) Anti-submarine weapons also take up quite a lot of space. For example, on the basis of the same Karakurt, they plan to create anti-submarine ships. This means that the new ships will be highly specialized, there will be practically no other weapons on them. The result is a kind of "dove of peace", capable only of catching a "fish" in the water. Against other ships, he will be practically defenseless.
      All these weapons in the complex can only be placed on a large ship. Therefore, the fleet needs different ships, 1, 2 and 3 ranks. Everyone has their own tasks and opportunities. The "kids" have limited range and autonomy of swimming. In the ocean, their use is extremely limited. By the way, this also applies to "unmanned ships, etc."
      You can probably pick up something much cheaper to display the flag.

        The S-400 was not spoiled. Most likely, the S-300F will remain.

          Is not a fact. “Gorshkov” was built for a long time, including because of the unavailability of new weapons, I think we have a similar situation. There are different opinions about what will ultimately be on the cruiser. In any case, the S-300 occupies no less space.

            It is already known exactly. That Nakhimov is left with 300. The 300 missiles are still long-range missiles. No one on ships has such.

              Who knows and how?

              After modernization "Admiral Nakhimov" will receive as a long-range air defense system a naval modification of the S-400 with an ammunition load of 96 missiles.

      You cheat too quickly. Naturally, Nakhimov will be the flagship. The order will consist of Nakhimov, frigates 22350 and 22350M, and I think the same with UDC. It won't be enough to fight the same Mattresses, but they will be able to drive the middle country into the cellar. Let me remind you that Nakhimov has an S-300F. And in order to break through this air defense umbrella from 300 and ZAK Broadsword, an air group with at least 2 aircraft carriers is needed. And then the losses will be such that such an adventure will be decided only in the event of a large-scale war.

        The naval component of military conflicts turns into providing the same military conflicts on the continents. Naval battles have long been ruled out due to the lack of both enemy forces (US Newy) and strategic capabilities. Of course, there are exceptions, the USA is located behind Atlantic B and is far from all events on the Euro-African continent, and the degree of influence is decreasing, let's see what happens next ...

    But Russia has 2 more such handsome men! I wish we could update them too - and put them on guard on the Northern Sea Route!
