Post Soviet Union I believe a number of Deltas (and maybe Typhoon) were maintained with missile crews dockside so they could launch without full crews and maintenance. This makes them unhardened static silos which is sub optimal but operating the missiles without actually having to sail and dive the sub was far less expensive from a maintenance and training point of view. The subs and missiles were paid for and it was a stop gap measure taken to maintain deterrence with platforms and weapons that were already paid for.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />JoshJoshnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-44458623216419636602016-09-27T22:52:17.338+10:002016-09-27T22:52:17.338+10:00Hi Team Eurowussies

Surfaced and stationary launch, should, in principle, be less problematic than dived launch. <br /><br />Regards<br /><br />PetePetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624742078679760819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-60323382970246855402016-09-27T20:38:05.166+10:002016-09-27T20:38:05.166+10:00Hi Pete,

Passive sonar-system is adopted. In modern antisubmarine warfare, sonar-system is shifting from active to passive, but, Russian Navy affected by concept in the Cold War neglected passive-system and emphasized active-system. Then-president Medvedev ordered Okeanpribor to improve the situation on July/02/2009 [4].<br /><br />Borey-Class is built by Sevmash, the largest ship-building complex in Russia. Sevmash announced Vladimir Monomakh had arrived at the place of permanent deployment - CATF Vilyuchinsk (Kamchatka) on September/26, 2016 [4].<br /><br />[1] https://thewarmy.com/inf/atomnayapodvodnayalodka_proekta885_yasen-646/<br />[2]https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/about-the-new-russian-submarines-which-will-be-in-service-with-russia-in-2030.606552/<br />[3] http://www.vtp.ru/<br />[4]https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%83%9C%E3%83%AC%E3%82%A4%E5%9E%8B%E5%8E%9F%E5%AD%90%E5%8A%9B%E6%BD%9C%E6%B0%B4%E8%89%A6<br />[5] http://www.sevmash.ru/rus/news/2036-84004.html)<br /><br />Regards<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-50219776880184860502016-09-27T00:21:35.403+10:002016-09-27T00:21:35.403+10:00Hi Anonymous

They are listed as commissioned https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borei-class_submarine#Ships but they may not be ready to go on patrol.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />PerePetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624742078679760819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-22524350242502517632016-09-26T22:04:08.488+10:002016-09-26T22:04:08.488+10:00Hi Pete

Russian submarine feet is not threat as before in Soviet era. The numbers of patrol is significantly reduced compared with Soviet Era, i.e., 102, 0, 10, 5 and 5 times for in 1984, 2002, 2008, 2011 and 2015.[2] <br /> <br />[1]SHIPS OF THE WORLD, 2016, November, No.848, “NEW SUBMARINES OF THE WORLD” by Editor, page 77.<br /><br />[2]ibid,“OVERVIEW OF SUBMARINES TODAY” by Masao Kobayashi, page 74. <br />*snips*<br />Russia owns 38 nuclear submarines and 21 conventional submarines, and she ranks third in the world in the number of submarine possessing. However, most of nuclear submarine is a relic of the Soviet Era and maritime nuclear deterrent force is insufficient. 18 conventional submarines are Kilo-Classes being used for more than 22 years. In addition, as there is a financial issue due to price declines of crude oil, submarine force is in a crisis of significant reduction.<br />*snips*<br />As 3 Borey-Classes are under testing, 6 Delta IV-Classes and 4 Delta III-Classes are responsible for the nuclear deterrent of Russia. However, only 4 Delta IV-Classes are within service life of Russian submarine (=30years), and youngest Delta IV-Class has been used for 25years.<br />*snips*<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
