The Russian Navy and the FSB Coast Guard should exchange several ships

July 16 2022 36

Russia is a country of contrasts, and sometimes it is difficult to understand it with the mind. The way the already small surface forces of the navy are distributed raises a lot of perplexed questions. Almost unarmed and defenseless patrol ships are being built here for the Russian Navy, and formidable frigates are serving in the FSB Coast Guard. Why this happens, let's try to figure it out.

"Doves of Peace"

Only the lazy have not yet trampled on the patrol ships of project 22160. In the course of a special military operation to demilitarize and denazify Ukraine, it turned out that these ships, poorly armed and completely defenseless against missile attacks, nicknamed “doves of peace” for this, do not bring any real benefit in the Black Sea.
It got to the point that ground-based Tor-M2KM air defense modules had to be hoisted and chained onto their helipad deck, just to give the ship a semblance of a chance to survive an air raid or an anti-ship missile launch. In the domestic press, this lewdness was tolerantly called the “air defense corvette”.

Enthusiasts from the fleet are now proposing to somehow re-arm them: install the Shtil air defense system, the Paket-NK light anti-aircraft defense system and deploy an anti-submarine helicopter. After that, it may turn out to be something capable of performing at least some auxiliary tasks as part of a ship strike group. However, this decision cannot be called anything other than the word "ersatz". The reason is simple - from a patrol ship built using civilian of technologies, trying to mold a real warship.

Alas, this is simply impossible, and the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation finally decided to say goodbye to this dubious idea, limiting the series to only six ships originally ordered. In fact, 36 billion budget rubles were thrown to the wind. But, perhaps, the "doves of peace" will still find application, even if not in the navy?

"Nerei"

This is the time to remember about other Russian ships, which are also used not quite for their intended purpose. This is the project of patrol ships 11351 "Nereus". We have already touched on this topic in part, telling about the project of the frigate 11356 "Talvar", developed by the Nevsky Design Bureau for the needs of the Indian Navy.

It is based on the Soviet patrol ship of project 1135 (1135M, 11352 and 11353) of the near and far sea zone Burevestnik. One of the representatives of this series, the Selfless TFR, became famous for the fact that the American cruiser Yorktown was expelled from the territorial waters of the USSR using the bulk method. For their time, the Petrels were exceptionally successful anti-submarine frigates, surpassing American frigates in many performance characteristics.

On the basis of this project, project 1135.1 "Nerei" was developed for the needs of the Border Guard Service of the KGB of the USSR. Its main task was to control the 200-mile sea economic zone in the Far East and North. High speed and excellent seaworthiness have made these patrol boats outstanding in their class. However, for simple patrol ships, these ships are too heavily armed, and for full-fledged warships, they are underarmed. These include, for example, the former Ukrainian flagship Hetman Sagaidachny, which was flooded in Nikolaev. On the basis of the successful 1135.1, the Indian frigate of project 11356 "Talwar" was created, and that, in turn, formed the basis of the Russian frigates of the "admiral series" of project 11356R.

Exchange

Currently, the Naval Forces of the Coast Guard of the Border Guard Service of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation have only two patrol ships of the Nerey code - the Dzerzhinsky PSKR and the Eagle PSKR. Both serve in the Pacific Ocean, detaining Russian and Japanese poachers, inspecting violating ships.

Taking into account their excessive armament for conventional patrol ships and the acute shortage of large surface ships in the Russian Navy, the possibility of transferring the Orel PSKR to the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation or using it as a donor for the repair of ships of the Pacific Fleet of the Russian Federation has long been considered. The second option is clearly inappropriate in view of the situation in which the Russian Navy finds itself today. However, there is a rational grain in the idea of transferring patrol ships from the Coast Guard to the Navy. Both surviving Nereus can be repaired, upgraded and put into service, turning them into quite decent anti-submarine ships, in which we have an acute shortage.

Instead, the Coast Guard should be given out of sight all these awkward ships of project 22160. The frank delusion of the situation is that the “doves of peace” were originally developed specifically for the naval units of the Border Guard Service of the FSB of the Russian Federation, and not for the Navy. The Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation managed to push through a series of six almost unarmed and defenseless patrol ships at once through a scheme worthy of a serious check by law enforcement agencies. In principle, the “doves of peace” are incapable of fighting, but catching poachers (pirates) is something that they can really do, bringing at least some benefit to the country.

And now, in fact, we have patrol ships in the Russian Navy, and serious warships in the Coast Guard. Logics...

Attacks on pr.22160 are biased and for the most part on the herd principle. Well, what civilian technologies are we talking about here? Initially, along the avenue, a full-fledged air defense system and a helicopter and other "gadgets" were laid down, but the management wanted the configuration of the yacht (that is, the cant is not a project, but sailors). If you now give the command to redo it "as expected", it will immediately become clear to whom to send questions about the non-combat readiness of 22160, which means the project is to blame. Well, the claims are original - for example, "weak booking" (this is on a corvette, on which booking is not allowed by definition, well, except for a patrol armored boat!)
Conclusion Before succumbing to instincts, it is worth thinking a little, education should allow.

  All these reflections from ignorance of the situation. And the situation is such that we have defenseless ships. On paper there were modules, but on paper we have aircraft carriers and destroyers and large ships. But in fact, by 22160 there is not a single module in the metal. Although the ship is modular. So it turns out that somewhere out there he might have been conceived as a combat unit, but only in thoughts. In fact, a reason to cut money

  I agree, it was Timokhin and Klimov who launched the idea and everyone who likes to wash the bones of others enthusiastically supported, and of course Sergey Marzhetsky (Sergey), as he does not know how to think freely, but rather repeat after others, who does not know psychology and maritime affairs, bought into and repeats after his idol Timokhin .... and meanwhile, these patrolmen turned out to be more useful at the Black Sea Fleet than 1164 ingloriously sunk, and 11356 prudently holed up in the port, if the information about the lack of modules for the modular corvette is correct, then they need to be urgently done, and not to criticize actually unfinished ships. ... First of all, Nerei are old, and secondly, it will be uncomfortable for patrolmen on the ocean, and even for trips from the Sea of Japan to the Bering Sea, and of course they cannot be donors to the Pacific Fleet, because there has not been a single 1135 there for a long time, but there is a Black Sea Fleet a couple of old men Ladny Inquisitive, practically these are artillery ships with conditional combat capability, and it makes no sense to add a couple of them, soon to be scrapped ..... At the same time, he told them a parable:
  
  no one puts patches on old clothes, tearing off new clothes; otherwise, the new one will be torn apart, and the patch from the new one will not fit the old one.

I also have a "revelation" from a respected Author:

Russia is a country of contrasts, and sometimes it is difficult to understand it with the mind.

F.I. Tyutchev:

Mind does not understand Russia,
No yardstick to measure:
She’s special to become -
You can only believe in Russia.

Utter nonsense from the mouth of the author. project 1135.1 is old trash, which is not much different from patrol ships. As an air defense ship, he is no. Two Osa air defense systems were good for the 80s, but today they are rubbish. Torpedo tubes also do not meet today's realities. the AK-100 complex slightly increases the value of the ship. RBU - I don’t even want to comment. For the border guards, the ship is redundant, but for the Navy it is of no value. What a patrol ship, what PSKR - both are just a burden for the fleet. And to call 1135.1 a serious warship means to show yourself as a complete layman in this matter. And the idea of \uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbto repair and modernize the PSKR is generally crazy. How much it will cost the budget and how long these old ships can still serve after that, the author did not guess. Maybe it's better to write about something that has at least some understanding of the issue, and not to make the audience laugh.

  Even in this form, it is more combat-ready than 22160. This is first. Secondly, modernization involves its rearmament. So you, a beginner troll, are doing the usual twitching. Or you do not understand the meaning of what is written at all.
  
  And the idea of \uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbto repair and modernize the PSKR is generally crazy. How much it will cost the budget and how long these old ships can still serve after that, the author did not guess.
  
  Yeah, like the idea of upgrading old BODs, TAVKRs and cruisers, yes. Andryusha? Can you buy new boats in the store?
  
  Maybe it's better to write about something that has at least some understanding of the issue, and not to make the audience laugh.
  
  If you still do not understand why you are a disgrace to an officer and a Soviet person, based on my comment, I will explain in more detail.
  You, in your personal hostility towards me, not motivated by anything on my part, constantly write me all sorts of nasty things, showing your low moral level. I'm sure your Soviet teachers would be ashamed of you. But you, as an officer, are also to spite me drowning against the absolutely sound idea of re-equipping two PSKRs and turning them into 2 PLO frigates, in which there is an acute shortage. By doing this from such base motives, you objectively harm the interests of the Russian Navy, proving your own bias and internal vileness.
  What kind of officer are you after that? You are a disgrace, turned from a military man into a banal pest troll.

        During the works, actually 100% of weapons will be replaced, with the exception of AK-630 artillery mounts. The ship will be equipped with the Kalibr missile system, Paket naval underwater weapons, and modern radio-electronic weapons. There will also be a replacement of hull structures and 100% replacement of cable routes.

The idea is interesting, the issue is the wear and tear of ships, this time. In the rearmament project and how much it will cost, these are two. In terms of project preparation and in terms of modernization, these are three.
