The acquisition of two systems will allow one to be sited on each coast of the subcontinent [likely Mumbai (main west coast naval base) and Visakhaphatnam (main east coast naval base)].<br /><br />Each flyaway system for the Indian Navy (IN) comprises a 30t deep search and rescue vehicle (DSRV), launch and recovery system able to operate in Sea State 6, transfer-under-pressure system plus logistics and support equipment (including self-contained generators with back-up electrical supply).<br /><br />The third-generation DSAR can carry a crew of three and up to 17 rescued personnel.

Chiyoda will be replaced by new submarine rescue ship (5,600t) budgeted 2014 FY. ASR-401 Chihaya (1st) and ASR-2 Fushimi were decommissioned in 1989 and 2000, respectively.<br /><br />Regards<br />S<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-11437129474450344592015-09-08T19:50:19.530+10:002015-09-08T19:50:19.530+10:00Hi /C

The Russian Kilo crews may need two lifts.<br /><br />There's also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_Submarine_Rescue_System<br /><br />With the Chinese PLA Navy's large number of subs and fairly steep development curve 10 rescue ships sounds right.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />PetePetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02624742078679760819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19245896.post-27165556277638133252015-09-08T18:14:59.374+10:002015-09-08T18:14:59.374+10:00We should not forget the Royal Swedish Navy's ...We should not forget the Royal Swedish Navy's HSwMs Belos with its submarine rescue vehicle URF, which can resuce 35 people in one go.<br /><br />PLAN has, according to Wikipedia, 10 submarine resuce vessels, divided into four different classes.<br /><br />/CAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
