Russia has begun to restore the research fleet

4

In Russia, the construction of new multifunctional research vessels for an unlimited navigation area has started. This is an important event for our country, since in recent decades the Russian research fleet has not been in the best condition, and there were reasons for this.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia got only 24 ships from the composition of the once largest scientific fleet in the world. By 2013, 13 of them remained in service. At the same time, today these ships are hopelessly outdated both morally and physically.



For a long time, Russia could not begin to create new ones, since the Soviet fleet was mainly built in Finland, Turkey and Ukraine. Thus, our country practically had to re-learn the design of ships of the above-mentioned class.

Now we can say with confidence that Russia has successfully coped with the task. In July, a new vessel for the Russian Academy of Sciences was laid down at the Vyborg shipyard, and two more completely new research ships were laid down at the Zvezda shipyard the day before.

The latter will be able to take on board helicopters, carry unmanned underwater vehicles, break ice up to 80 cm thick and carry out a wide range of scientific research.

However, not only the Russian Academy of Sciences is involved in the development of the research fleet. Ships for exploring the seabed, searching for sunken objects, rescue operations and, of course, reconnaissance are also being built for the needs of the Ministry of Defense.

In general, it is planned to build 2035 research vessels by 90. Consequently, in the foreseeable future, we should expect the Russian civil and military scientific fleet to reach a fundamentally new level of development.

      even emo communists were not needed to restore shipbuilding, aircraft building and car building with agriculture

      how so? Probably the bourgeoisie found dusty machines from the USSR and set up production on a dilapidated fund

      Now, if it were not for Zyuganov and Bulk with Rashkin and Platoshkin - nothing would have happened - they would have been sitting without these industries. Thanks to liberda and emocoms - thanks to them and in spite of the Kremlin ...

      PS but if Grudinin had been a communist, he would have sold his entire business and presented the state with a destroyer and three wagons for grain!

      My indignant mind boils ... Whoever destroyed everything, he recreates again ... But less and worse. Competence in industry and other industries was diligently destroyed by the lackeys of the IMF and the State Department ... For the normal development of the jumps of the edrosov it will not be enough ...

        Whoever destroyed everything, he recreates again ...

        With a graceful movement, money flows once again into the pockets of respected people, philanthropists and effective managers, as well as representatives of their teams and families.
        Development will be normal, even more so - at a pace that had no analogues in the USSR, this will be proved by the expert fraternity from all the mouthpieces.
        As many as 90 units of research vessels! This is not for you to weld a barge, it is much easier. And even before the age of 35, it's generally like two fingers ..., there is no more time to swing. Moreover, over the past five years, many different steamers have already been built, even Meteors have been revived.

      90 ships by 35 is 6 units per year. Are you serious?
