Russian Naval Construction Plans and Numbers

Finally some good news

Is that Belgorod?
I kinda assumed it was going to lose the missile hatches with the upgrade, wonder if it still has missile tubes too?

It's not modernized Belgorod I think. Even silhuette of the ceremony features normal Antey sub only.



At the same time the Chinese had 70th anniversary of PLAN ceremony. Squadron of 18 foreign ships from 13 countries was led by Gorshkov.



Edit:

The boss has spoken: https://twitter.com/i/status/1120719123338731520

Key words:

- Russian presence in world oceans
- and distant sea zone
- fast pace of ship construction in last years will be maintained

Hopefully not, so far it's been a disaster

It would be advisable to speed it up

I love how they made Khabarovsk smaller in this diagram than Lada-class even though it's a modified Borei SSBN...

Interesting view of the naval use of UAV's around 22:00.

Since 2012, more than 80 ships and boats have entered service. We publish the list:

On April 23, 2019, at a ceremonial event in St. Petersburg on the occasion of the laying of new warships, it was reported that from 2012 to the present, more than 80 ships and boats, including three strategic missile submarines, were handed over to the armament. This statement caused interesting discussions and discussions in public circles, as many believe that this figure is too high. In this regard, it will be interesting to consider the completion of our Navy since 2012 and to see whether our fleet has really accepted more than 80 combat units.

For starters, it should be noted separately that quite often many analysts and experts in the military field, analyzing the update of our fleet, take into account only large warships and submarines, well, suppose everything that has a displacement of 1000 tons and above, justifying it by that only these units are able to solve problems in the far sea zone and pose a serious threat to the enemy. In addition, often forget about the ships and boats for special purposes. This is fundamentally wrong, since each combat unit, starting from a boat, has its own range of tasks and mission. Moreover, a ship / boat enrolled in the Navy by order of the Navy GC is considered a military unit of the Navy, it is given a combat flag - the flag of the Navy (Andreevsky) and this unit is credited to a particular base / unit. Therefore, ignoring, say, patrol / anti-sabotage or amphibious boats is a deep mistake. The following is a list of ships and boats of all projects submitted to the Russian Navy from 01/01/2012 to the present (we confine ourselves to the date 04/23/2019 - at the time of the announcement of the figures):

As we see, in fact, since 2012, the Russian Navy has really received at least 80 new combat units into its units. It is also worth noting that, according to preliminary data, no less than 6 airborne assault boats of the Project 02800 of the “Tavr” type have already been transferred to the Russian Navy, which in turn act both independently and as a regular unit of the new patrol ships of the Project 22160. For the near future until the end of 2019, according to the Russian Defense Ministry, it is planned to transfer at least 15 combat units to the Navy. Among them, the frigate of the project 22350, the PC of the project 22160, the MRK of the project 21631 and 22800, the submarine of the project 06363, the submarine of the projects 955A and 885, the MSCP of the project 12700, the PKA of the project 03160 and 024510 and the RAN of the project 21980 of the Rook type.

Nice list... wasn't there talk of 160 new ships by 2023-2025 or something?

Probably includes non combat vessels also. During that same period of the 80 fighting vessels, there have been about 100 support vessels arrive also. Another factor that confuses the situation is the difference between a ship and a boat. Half those vessels on the list mentioned would be classified as a ship, while the rest are boats suitable for harbour and inshore operations only.

The first ten are related to submarines, the second 10 are actual surface combatants and the last 60 are not worth mentioning.

They need Navy they are actually capable of building and supporting and without having to wait several decades to even get halfway there.

This means missile ships, corvettes and frigates.

Karakurts for missile ships. You always need padding.

Gorshkovs for corvettes. Reasons are obvious.

Derzkii/Mercury for frigates.

Steregushi has the equipment but short range. Gremashi has equipment and range but is overstuffed.

Then you have Mercury. Has equipment (AA system, anti-ship missiles, full anti-sub package, helicopter/missile container depending on need, speedboats), has range, has better propulsion (and local one) and plenty of room for whatever comes up down the road including drones.

The moment they put Mercury in the water and confirm it it floats they should discontinue other two and fully switch to Mercury class.


And most importantly: these ships can be built in more than one shipyard.


Look at Karakurts and Bykovs: they are fastest growing ship classes precisely because you have more than one shipyard on the job. And you can get benefits of having competition between shipyards this way and reward good ones with more contracts.

No wonder UEC is fuming over Pella. They are making them look bad by bringing attention to their incompetence. It would be even better if they gave Pella contract for corvette like Mercury. Direct competition.

Nuclear destroyers or (God forbid) carriers will be built exclusively by one shipyard, it will be crazy slow, costs wil skyrocket as always, there will be no oversight because it will be too big to fail in case of carrier (which it will) and in they end they will only have handful of them at best after insane amount of time. Just look at Kirovs for reference.

Let's arrive to 30 adding all the Buyan, that started the Kalibr revolution and the Ivan Gren.

Construction of warships of the ocean and far sea zone for the Russian Navy as of May 1, 2019

Russia is probably best in nuke subs
surface fleet ... making there ships have insane firepower for their size .... I'd do the same

what is wrong with you people ? .... their strategy is utterly logical and brilliant ....
to me - lots of nuke SSGNs .... and lots of small widely distributed missile ships ... a no-brainer

meanwhile USA/NATO masturbate on the "high seas" "surface fleet domination " ... wasting endless money
seriously ..... stop watching CNN and the BBC .....

what amazes me about you dumb-arses is that you are cheer-leadering for exactly what the USA wants ...
they want Russia to bankrupt itself .... trying to be bigger wankers than the USA ......

you guys are so dumb .... seriously ... you are in the wrong century

and lets face it ... the biggest wankers in the history of the world are the "US-of-A"
a bunch of total twats ..... like most of you

In the Kosovo war the bases in Italy were effective. There were even studies done by western "think tanks" that showed how ineffective the carriers were compared to the land bases.

Correct

Land based aviation was doing 99% of damage

If USA tried to do anything with just carrier aircrafts they would still be at it (and hardly anyone here would have been too bothered over it)

It makes sense if you can get a land base close to the action but that is not always the case.  A carrier aircraft dropping bombs is just as effective as a land based one.  It is all about sortie generation rate. A carrier operating 200km from the target area can turn around fighters faster than a land base 1000km away.
