Also a report on White Sea tests of Uragan https://flotprom.ru/2018/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%BB%D0%B024/

Tests on the White Sea of ​​the head small rocket ship of the project 22800 (code "Karakurt") "Hurricane" confirmed the nautical qualities and the inherent technical solutions.
According to Mikhail Krasnopeyev, the Uragan, which arrived in Belomorsk in early October for state tests, was successfully shot out of Caliber cruise missiles at a coastal and sea target in the White Sea.
"Passed nautical tests, applied weapons in the swell over three points. Has developed a speed of more than 30 knots," added Mikhail Krasnopeev.

And about the engines https://flotprom.ru/2018/%D0%9E%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%BA%D0%B0382/

Stabilization of the situation with the supply of engines for small rocket ships of the project 22800 "Karakurt" is expected in 2021-2022. This was announced on Tuesday, October 23, by the deputy head of the shipbuilding department of the Russian Navy, Captain I rank, Mikhail Krasnopeyev , during the launching ceremony of the Buryat MRC at the Leningrad Shipyard Pella.

“There is a problem, we are solving it,” Mikhail Krasnopeyev acknowledged, answering a question about the disruption of the deliveries of M507 diesel engines manufactured by PJSC Zvezda. "engines for" Karakurtov "will build Kingisepp Machinery."

Apparently this 4th ship is launched without engines https://flotprom.ru/2018/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%BB%D0%B023/

Factory running tests of the small rocket ship "The Tempest" of Project 22800 (code "Karakurt") will begin in the second half of 2019.

The Tempest is the fourth IRC of project 22800, built at the Pella plant. The transfer of the ship to the Baltic Fleet is scheduled for 2020. However, the timing depends, among other things, on the timeliness of the delivery of M507 diesel engines manufactured by PJSC Zvezda.

There has been suggestion at Balancer that 3rd boat launched without engines too, its certainly floating significantly higher than the others in the pics against the wall at Pella.

20380/5 & 22160 with Kolomna diesels?
Notably the early 20380s had significant teething issues with the engines but seems to be sorted now.
But 20385s are expected to be underpowered (were supposed to be getting more powerful MAN).
Buyan-M with the Chinese import if the fixes for Vyshny Volochek worked out.

Is there a ship class in production in Russia now that has engines available?

Kilo submarines, Steregushi corvettes, Ivan gren landing ships, Yurij Ivanov inteligence ship, Alexandrite minesweepers.

It was designed by Yeltsin in 1990s during the dream of east-west eternal friendship...who knows what was he drinking...

the engine isn't really holding it back since they still use the same two powerplants but the desiel electric units are now 4 I believe over the initial 2.

AT least until they complete the other engines.

Better underpowered than not working like Ford one year in commission

They aren't actually really underpowered. Not sure were papa got that from. Unless he means because it now has to use 4 desil electric generators rather than 2 MTU ones. Then he is correct.

Causing comparing a very small missile ship to a Supercarrier makes total sense.

More launch



https://bmpd.livejournal.com/3389208.html has a bunch of pics

Also big galleries at http://foto-i-mir.ru/22800-burya-181023-1/ & http://foto-i-mir.ru/22800-burya-181023-2/

Good close up of the radar, looks a bit different? Maybe just the paint.


Bonus

I figured you would come riding in to defend, always do.

First off I simply said comparing a ship less than 1000 tons to a ship that is what 90 times bigger and a ship class that IS much more complex oh and they don't even use the same propulsion type.

It's a silly comparison, There is nothing similar about the vessels to warrant it.

Perhaps some on-topic content




I think we had an earlier reference to the window cutting out in this thread so this one too from same group of pics since it shows that in-progress (not a 22800)

Apparently part of the deckplan

Uragan is on the way back to the Baltic via canal. https://flotprom.ru/2018/%D0%98%D1%81%D0%BF%D1%8B%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8F52/

Edit: arrived back to Pella already so must have left White Sea a while back.

2nd, 3rd & 4th boats against the wall at Pella

Note they've removed a bunch of stuff from 4th since launch, still lots missing from 3rd.

With the engine supply issues its been said that at least the 3rd & presumably 4th have launched without engines, some debate on Balancer a while back about how they would get engines in post-launch.
Other boats with similar engines apparently were setup for easy removal/replacement.
There is a hatch in the deck between Pantsir-M mount & the rest of the superstructure, that area has tarps covering it on the 2nd boat here, presumably hatch is open.

1st boat

Uragan at Baltysk, looks like loading Kalibrs again (unloading? since no missile range in Baltic).




Same spot as back in post 532 so that was not Kronshtadt.

The construction of a series of small rocket ships of the project 22800 at the Pella enterprise is also being implemented. Six such ships will be built for the Baltic Fleet, and a total of 18 units for the Navy.
