    Vishnya-class Intelligence Ship Karelia rejoined the Russian Pacific Fleet

    The Dalzavod Ship Repair Center has completed the builders’ sea trials of the Karelia medium intelligence ship following comprehensive repair and retrofit. After that, it was handed over to the Pacific Fleet, Dalzavod’s press service reported to the online agency Flotprom.

    "The sea trials program has been successfully completed. The ship’s main propulsion plant, main units and mechanisms, navigation and communication equipment were tested during the sortie into the sea," said Dalzavod’s executive director Igor Evdokimov. "The ship rejoins the Pacific Fleet with the extension of the mean time to repair for five years."

    The ship Karelia had been mothballed for more than 10 years until January 2014 when Dalzavod started comprehensive repair and retrofit of the ship. In the process of recovering the ship’s technical readiness, the main engine, all units and mechanisms were repaired, and advanced navigation and communication equipment was installed. All the spaces of the ship were repaired and the the living conditions for the crew were improved substantially. Just like on the large landing ship Oslyabya, handed over to the fleet in the spring of this year, modern polymer coatings and painting techniques were applied during repair work.

    Russia’s Northern Fleet receives another counter sabotage boat

    Now the number of the Grachonok-class counter sabotage boats assigned to the Northern Fleet has grown to three

    MURMANSK, August 28. /TASS/. Russia’s Northern Fleet has received a new Grachonok-class counter sabotage boat, the Fleet’s press service said in a statement. According to the press service, the boat has been handed over to the counter sabotage unit deployed to the main base of the Northern Fleet’s submarine forces in Gadzhiyevo, located in the Murmansk region.

    "The flag-raising ceremony on the boat was held on the sidelines of the Army-2017 International Military Forum," the statement adds.

    Now the number of the Grachonok-class counter sabotage boats assigned to the Northern Fleet has grown to three. The first one of them, named "Yunarmeyets Zapolyarya," participated in the country’s main naval parade in the city of St. Petersburg.

    The Grachonok-class counter sabotage boats have been developed by the Vympel Design Bureau and built at the Vympel shipyard in Rybinsk in the Yaroslavl Region, central Russia. They are designed to protect water areas and fight sabotage and terrorist groups in coastal waters. The Project 21980 counter sabotage boats are armed with large-caliber machine guns, depth charges and man-portable air defense missile systems.

    The boat’s radio electronic equipment is capable of searching for moving underwater targets, including small ones, such as divers.

    The status of the ships of the Project UK-3 is the most difficult to follow in this group.

    If someone knows something, it would be interesting to read.

    these are training boats. All these ships are auxilliary vessels that already are being replaced by new Russian projects

    Yes it is a good source. In the post of the begin of this topic I used a combination of these 3 sources for the ship:

    http://russianships.info/eng/support/project_uk3.htm
    http://fleetphoto.ru/projects/1197/
    https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%BF%D0%B8%D1%81%D0%BE%D0%BA_%D0%BA%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B9_%D0%92%D0%BE%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE-%D0%BC%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BE_%D1%84%D0%BB%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%B0_%D0%A0%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%B9%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B9_%D0%A4%D0%B5%D0%B4%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%86%D0%B8%D0%B8

    I included the common part, but there are differences between the 3 sources.

    I have the same problem with him and Calm sometime. What I do is hit the quote button in the bottom right hand corner. You can then see the links but you will have to copy paste them into a new tab to open the link. I suspect John was a lawyer in another life... probably for my ex-wife.

    Never a lawyer but I wrote a few contracts and had a case in our High Court!

    I'd better start putting the links in as well as using the convenient button above.

    In 2019, Russian Navy will receive two new 19910-project hydrographic vessels

    In 2019, the Navy will receive two newest Project 19910 hydrographic vessels with increased sailing autonomy and an enhanced ice type, said Captain I Rank Sergei Travin, Chief of the Navigation and Oceanography Administration of the Russian Defence Ministry at the practical conference dedicated to the 220th anniversary of the birth of Admiral Fyodor Litke, which was held at the Central Naval Museum in St. Petersburg.

    According to Captain I Rank Sergei Travin, one of the Project 19910 hydrographic vessels is being built at the shipyard Vympel in the city of Rybinsk and through the Russian Navy C-in-C’s she has been assigned the name Nikolay Skosyrev, and the second vessel – Aleksandr Rogotsky – is being constructed on the stocks of the Blagoveshchensk Shipbuilding Plant. All the works are going according to the schedule and under the control of the Navy's High Command.

    "These vessels will meet the highest requirements for hydrographic vessels. They will have increased autonomy of sailing and will be able to take on board increased numbers of military hydrographs, what, of course, will allow hydrographic expeditions to be carried out at a new level of efficiency," said the Chief of the Navigation and Oceanography Directorate of the Russian Defence Ministry,

    He also stressed that 19910-project hydrographic vessels are to be armed with the most modern equipment for hydrographic studies of sea areas.

    "These two vessels are built taking into account proposals and recommendations based on the experience of testing and operation of the previous vessels of this project - the head and the first serial ones. They will be even more perfect for a number of opportunities," said Captain I Rank Sergei Travin.

    Project 19910 hydrographic vessels are designed for servicing navigation equipment, delivering cargo to unequipped coasts, performing research with a multi-beam sonic depth finder. They will have a strengthened ice type and will also be able to work not only in deep sea conditions, but also in shallow waters.

    Can you develop what those ships are analizing and what instruments/tools they use ?? I've never looked for those informations actually idk anything about it. I suppose they want information principaly for their subs so they don't get surprised by currents like garry said.

    Having accurate maps is critical in war... doubly so underwater when most of the time you can't see where you are going.

    Finding places to hide, finding potential hiding places the enemy might use, or just the safe navigation through an area...

    Satellites can use radar to map many areas but close in mapping with ships takes longer but gives more accurate information.

    They can also be used for other things like sampling water and accurate deep penetration radar to detect the structure of the ground under the water, or finding lost objects on the marine floor.

    They can also locate cables etc...
