MRK "Naro-Fominsk" of project 21631 "Buyan-M" began factory sea trials in the Baltic Sea

October 15 2023 40

The small rocket ship "Naro-Fominsk" of project 21631 "Buyan-M", built at the Zelenodolsk shipyard named after Gorky, has begun factory sea trials in the Baltic Sea. This was reported on the BMPD blog.

The Naro-Fominsk MRK left the delivery base in Kronstadt and entered the Gulf of Finland, where factory sea trials of the ship will take place, which will go on to state ones. After being handed over to the military, Naro-Fominsk will become part of the 36th MRK brigade, which includes the 1st Guards Missile Boat Division and the 106th Small Missile Ship Division. In Baltiysk, all the necessary infrastructure has already been prepared for it.

The Naro-Fominsk MRK was laid down on February 23, 2018, and launched on December 9, 2022. After completion in early August 2023, it was sent to Kronstadt to undergo the necessary tests and transfer the fleet. Designed for the Baltic Fleet.

"Naro-Fominsk" is the eleventh small missile ship of Project 21631 "Buyan-M", built at the Zelenodolsk Shipyard for the Russian fleet. Initially, it was planned that the ship would go to serve in the Black Sea Fleet, but then it was decided to send it to the Baltic, since NATO has recently significantly increased its forces on Russia’s western borders. The twelfth MRK of this project, Stavropol, is at the completion stage; on it, a series of small missile ships of this project will be completed, although the Ak Bars shipbuilding corporation intends to offer the military a modernized version of the MRK.

The ships of the project 21631 "Buyan-M" are the modernization of the project 21630 "Buyan" and belong to the multipurpose ships of the "river-sea" class. Designed to protect the economic zone of the state. The main armament is the Kalibr-NK long-range universal missile system for eight vertical silos. Displacement 949 tons. Length 74,1 meters, width 11,0 meters, height 6,57 meters, draft 2,6 meters. The maximum speed is 25 knots. Cruising range - 2500 miles, autonomy - 10 days. Crew - 52 people. A water-jet propulsion unit is installed.

  For four years on the slipway, the ship VI 800 tons ... and then about another year of completion afloat ... And this is not even "Karakurt", which at least has its own air defense.
  But the brave builders of this miracle of military shipbuilding intend... and continue to build such eccentricities, for such money and in such a time frame??
  After all, Rakhmanov has already been thrown out of USC, and VTB has been reassigned, the management is new, Evmenov said that this nonsense will not happen again... And they don't let up. The sawing and sabotage lobby is still active. Not good .

Cut it for scrap metal. The SVO showed the complete futility of these pelvises. A small frigate must, first of all, have good air defense in the near zone. Moreover, the “near zone” is not five kilometers, but all 35... And good performance... Track at least (this is the bare minimum) a hundred targets in this area constantly .. Work automatically (i.e., the cycle of detection-identification-acceptance of escort should proceed regardless of the command and concern even seagulls flying past.) And good anti-submarine (or, if you prefer, anti-torpedo, which in my opinion is more correct) defense... That is, the ability to monitor (again automatically and on the move) the hydroacoustic situation at least within a radius of 10 kilometers from oneself and to a depth of at least 300 meters.
And here... Our people don’t dance here... Therefore - on pins and needles, so that the budget does not gobble up. And the team goes to the Marine Corps. There are, as always, few people there.

    In order to launch a caliber with onyx, there is no need to build a pelvis... Calibers, onyxes and shahids have not yet solved a single task. They have not ensured victory in the war, nor the collapse of the logistics of skaklov, nor a blackout in a single skakland... Neither the retention of Zmeiny, nor the retention of Boyko's towers, they could prevent attacks on the Crimean bridge, on the headquarters of the Black Sea Fleet, the explosions of ships near their harbor, and the shameful flight of the fleet to Novorossiysk. Why, they couldn’t even ensure a blockade of the Skaklyat grain corridor)...

        So I ask you: “Where is the process of recycling banderostan and how do calibers and onyxes affect it? Moreover, despite the fact that we have already launched them 10 times more than the Americans in Iraq?”
        And there is no need to be like Uncle Dimon and drag NATO into this... His support for Banderastan is very modest... And it costs the participating countries only 10-20 percent of their MILITARY budgets.

        Exactly. Learn the mat part.
        Don’t remember, who helped Iraq there? I really want to know.
        so Iraq had an Army three times larger than that of the Skaklov... And twice as tortured... And a network of airfields, constant combat experience and modernization and a huge air force... And the generals in Soviet academies are scientists... But they held out they are only 2 months old and 300 tomahawks (according to the USA) or 700 (according to some other studies, which admit, of course, the death of about 300 of these rackets from the sweaty paws of Saddam’s air defense)... We would have done it in 2 months - look, no one would have jumped and it didn’t help.... But this never relates to the topic of the effectiveness of onyx calibers. Because the amers themselves assessed the effectiveness of their hatchets very modestly. Especially compared to aviation.
        
        And the NATO military budget has nothing to do with it... Yes, they are now transferring money and materials comparable to the military budget of Russia before the Northern Military District... but this is a completely different story, which has little effect on the effectiveness of the use of cruise missiles by the Russian Armed Forces... Because long before The North Military District all warned us that there would be help for the Skaks.. And this had to be taken into account... And we ourselves regularly boasted that we were ready to fight with all of NATO) But, in fact, we cannot cope with 15-20% of the fucking military budget. . Oh no no no)

      For Onyx, no, but for Caliber, yes, because anything that can fly further than 500 km cannot be placed on a ground launcher, only on an airplane or ship.
      
      Calibers, onyxes and shahids have not yet solved a single task..
      
      So far, nothing and no one has fully completed the task set by the SVO, but it was the Calibers that made it possible to strike throughout the entire depth of Ukraine, hitting enemy personnel locations, warehouses and airfields, making their contribution to achieving the goals.
      
      A small frigate must, first of all, have good air defense in the near zone. Moreover, the “near zone” is not five kilometers, but all 35... And good performance... Track at least (this is the bare minimum) a hundred targets in this area constantly .. Work automatically (i.e. the cycle of detection-identification-acceptance for escort should proceed regardless of the command and even concern seagulls flying past.) And good anti-submarine (or, if you prefer, anti-torpedo, which in my opinion is more correct) defense... That is, the ability to monitor (again automatically and on the move) the hydroacoustic situation at least within a radius of 10 kilometers from oneself and to a depth of at least 300 meters.
      
      This is, of course, good, but this task is not an easy one, to squeeze the capabilities of a frigate into an RTO. And will there be any point?! The cost of such an RTO will be the same as that of a frigate due to the presence of expensive weapons systems, with all the disadvantages of its small size - low seaworthiness, smaller armored vehicles, less survivability.
      
      So maybe it would be easier to leave the MRK as a naval platform for launching calibers, especially since this type of ship can move through the internal waters of Russia, and make a ship with super air defense and anti-aircraft defense on the basis of patrol ships?!
      
      It would also be nice for ships to develop a special ship-based KAZ that would hit a missile flying at it with an anti-missile missile, just like in a KAZ for a tank, only on a larger scale.
      
      And the team goes to the Marine Corps. There are as always few people there.
      
      Well, this is not a tricky thing at all, but where will you find crews for new ships later? From the Marine Corps or from the regular one?

        The fact is that there is aviation.. And the RTOs don’t really go further than 500 km from the coast.. That’s why he and the RTOs have an autonomy of 15 days, so that they can hang around off the coast and in the inland seas...
        But squeezing the capabilities of a frigate into an RTO is easy, especially since an RTO is essentially a frigate, only with strike specialization. And the meaning in such squeezing will be much greater than in creating a coastal platform for launching missiles, very well detected by enemy reconnaissance and devoid of practical protection even in front of rubber boats armed with a light anti-ship complex, for example, some kind of Brimstone

        Aviation is, of course, good, but we don’t have many planes that carry long-range missiles, and there are even fewer airfields for them, and hiding them or camouflaging them is much more difficult than MRKs somewhere in inland waters. This is their advantage.
        
        In the event of a major war, dozens if not hundreds of Tomahawks will fall on our airfields, even if our strategists manage to take off, it is not a fact that they will be able to land. And here the RTO will be the only platform from which we will be able to launch Calibers 2500 km deep into enemy territory from our territory.
        
        I think the frigates will face an unenviable fate at the bases. Because of their size, we can’t hide them on the river.
        
        But squeezing the capabilities of a frigate into an RTO is easy, especially since an RTO is, essentially, a frigate
        
        I don't think so, it's not easy. The dimensions would not allow otherwise our corvettes, which in essence and power are closer to frigates, would be smaller, but more weapons systems mean more occupied space for it and ammunition + more area for the personnel who service all this and for food and water supplies for him.
        
        What you want is a .20385, and it is considered very armed for its size, but even it is not ideal and will not guarantee to repel all possible attacks from the air, from the water, and from under the water.
        
        I think that in the areas of our military bases we should focus not on ships alone, but on a stationary coastal security system that would include a network of underwater GAS, unmanned anti-submarine patrol boats, anti-submarine networks, coastal missile systems capable of shooting down missiles, attacking surface ships and BEC and including destroying underwater drones.
        
        And constantly work to improve this system. There is no other way.
        
        And it would also be nice if possible to hide our corvettes and other World Cup ships in special piers carved into the rock, as they once did in Balaklava as a base for submarines. This will be able to protect some of our ships from missile attack.
        
        In general, there are no easy ways, there is a lot of work to be done.

        I'll tell you a very smart thing... Don't be offended Not much larger than this project in size, the "karakurt" was considered by our Admiralty as a replacement, here, attention, drum roll: ta-da-a-m BLACK SEA FRIGATES of the "Tsarist-Admiral" series (however, provided that the karakurts are equipped with “polyment” and sea “shell”)
        In fact, it all depends on many things. Something like that.. For example, what kind of autonomy do you want to get? 15 days - one scenario.. 60 days - another.. What seaworthiness... Do you need a helicopter or not? Does it make sense to leave strike weapons in the form of 8 calibers (in this case, this is just a conventional name for a universal launcher .. Don’t find fault)... So our MRK, which received the same “polyment” (Or better, something more modern), replaced the stern gun on the “shell”, UVP for “calibers” on the UVP of “redoubts”, bow AU on a full-fledged GAS .. And, having gained weight (even at the cost of reducing autonomy) for the conditional “Package”, it may well turn into a rather formidable “fighter with small things”, capable effectively protect yourself from enemy cruise missiles, control the surface and underwater situation in the visibility zone... So here, it seems to me, your fears are groundless.

        A few stormshads that disappeared over the Sevastopol harbor have already driven our fleet to Novorossiysk... And the good tracking of surface ships, as well as submarines, by Khokhlorintelligence has led to the fact that sea launches have ceased to be at least some kind of surprise for the Khokhlo air defense. In this regard, more and more onyxes and calibers will start drying..
        Not even strategists. It's cheaper that way...
        Second moment.. Thousands of calibers, onyxes, iskandars and other martyrs fell on Khokhlyat airfields.. And they still continue to fly and make about ten sorties a day...
        And here’s another point... How much easier it is to sink one ship, deprived of air defense and finish with 8 launchers at once, than to track down 8 Su-34s at a large airfield among decoys, spaced-out parking lots, fortified hangars, etc., etc.

  Perhaps there is a reason in the words. By the way, there is complete silence about the fate of the patrol "Derzhavin" and the tugboat that tried to help him. What actually happened there was not even covered. What I mean is that there was a lot of noisy pathos about the destructive forces of Poseidon. But as it turns out, the less destructive properties of more modest underwater drones can force the fleet to hide in “more advantageous” positions. As always, in the pursuit of the powerful, they did not pay attention to the modest capabilities, and the ships turned out to be unprepared for submarine warfare, because The developers arrogantly did not include the capabilities of such a PLO.

Derzhavin and the tug got it - because they are blind and deaf in an underwater environment. But the Alrosa boat was able to avoid contact with the enemy thanks to the perfection of its sonar systems.

There is no need to keep this boat at the forefront in Kaliningrad. Its place is on rivers and lakes, where it will fully reveal its potential as a strategic missile carrier.

It is high time to install the Pantsir-M air defense system on Buyany as the main air defense system.
Taking into account the experience of the North Military District, it is necessary to install a complex of anti-sabotage weapons on all Buyans with GAS and anti-sabotage grenade launchers, as well as 2-4 Kord DBMs to destroy unmanned boats, combat swimmers and UAVs.
At the second stage of modernization, all MRKs should be converted into light corvettes, equipping them with anti-submarine weapons consisting of submersible and towed GAS, as well as launchers of the PACKET-NK complex.
