Russia for the first time to buy Chinese weapons

Russia for the first time to buy Chinese weapons

As a result of the use of supply equipment provided by China, Parsons academician oil supply ship has received great domestic attention. So what about the recent situation? Not at all optimistic. The ship was launched in May 2016, but now the change is still small, the progress is really people Khan the sweat. There have been media reports that Russia in order to build Paschen Academician medium-sized supply ship, purchased from China 5 sets of ocean-wide comprehensive supply ship used in the sea integrated supply system, which is the first time for the construction of the Navy, from China to buy the relevant Weapon system. Therefore, there are military fans said that Russia's first import of Chinese weapons and equipment, the Sino-Russian military and trade has always been easy to shape and shape.
Docked in the dock next to the Parsons Academy oil supply ship, there are a lot of scaffolding on the bridge. This ship is the Russian ship since the collapse of the Soviet Union since the construction of the first oil supply ship, carrying the ardent hope of the Navy.

The picture shows the captain of the Parsons Academy oil supply ship close-up, near the accumulation of a lot of miscellaneous materials. Typically, the shipyard to improve the use of the platform, the ship will not be completed before the outfitting. Therefore, the Russian shipyard of this practice is not surprising.

This oil supply ship is the use of side slip type of water, when the bridge at the end of the superstructure is also empty. Now the overall construction of the superstructure has been made almost, but there are many parts and equipment is not installed.

The picture shows the side of the Parson Academy oil supply ship side of the close-up. The ship's no-load displacement of 9,000 tons, full load displacement of 14,000 tons. Horizontal contrast, Russia in this area has lagged behind the mainstream naval power, whether it is the United States, France and Germany, or China.
Has not yet water when the Parsons Academy oil supply ship. Everyone is also a million tons of boat, the bow looks very spectacular, there is a huge ball nose. From the layout point of view, it is far from the standard supply ship, more like a civilian ship.
Has not yet poured into the Parsons Academy oil supply ship, when the ship's superstructure has not been installed. In 2015, Russia signed a contract with China to purchase five sets of supply systems. Contract signed a hurry, may be the beginning of the domestic development, but later abandoned. Parson Academy is a medium-sized oil supply ship, with liquid and dry cargo supply capacity. The total length of 130 meters, 21 meters wide, 7 meters of draft, mainly for the supply of diesel, aviation gasoline and fresh water and other liquid goods, in addition to provide food and other dry goods.
The picture shows the tail details of the Parsons Academy supplies. Russia has ordered a total of five sets of systems from China, so it can be inferred that the ship will not only build one. Was originally to pay two ships in 2015, but now the first ship from the completion of a long time.
In terms of logistical support, Parsons may carry 3,000 tons of ship fuel, 2,500 tons of diesel, 500 tons of aviation fuel, 150 tons of lubricants, 1,000 tons of fresh water, and can carry 100 tons of dry goods and spare parts. From these data can be seen, the type of ship's dry cargo supply capacity is relatively weak.
The type of ship with uniaxial propulsion, by a number of diesel engines to provide power. The bow has a side push to ensure the ability to operate in shallow waters and narrow waterways, with a speed of 16 knots and a capacity of 8000 nautical miles. Although as a medium-sized oil supply ship, it seems to have to undertake the task of the distant sea.
The crew's standard is equipped with 24 people, in the implementation of the task will be an additional 12 people. In order to facilitate the high latitudes of the sea driving ability, Parsons academician supply ship with four ice-breaking capacity. With the ability to break the ice supply ship, this is actually very unique.
According to the Russian Navy's plan, Parsons Academy supplies will be equipped to the Northern Fleet. Its construction speed is relatively slow, is a microcosm of the Russian ship industry. A large number of brain drain, the workers do not work, how much reflected in the ship.
The picture shows the layout of the Parsons Academy's supply form, and the design of the gate bridge is different from that of the ship. Kuznetsov aircraft carrier has been lying on the nest, the other oil supply ship can also be a period of time, so despite the progress of a serious delay, now on the impact of the northern fleet is not large. In contrast, China's recent years of supply ship development, it is much faster.
