They want to push the limits.

The Guardian note was absurd, the submarine has been travelling surfaced all the trip and accompanied by a tug boat! :har: they really had to sweat to find the sub! :hmmm:

Good catch.
|
Submarine type 0636 a brand new kilo hasn't done dive trails yet hence why she is surfaced she left the baltic a while back as was escorted by norwiegen forces in the Kattergat the british RN knew she was coming and they will escort her again at the straight of gibralter and then the turkish fleet will no doubt escort her up the bosphorus straight into the black sea to her home port and her new fleet.
|
Kapitan, are you sure she hasn't completed dive trials yet? It seems weird that they wouldn't have. It would have made more sense to do the work ups in the Barents Sea or Baltic where she would have been closer to the shipyard in case there was a problem. I also thought they did test dives before the sub was handed over to the navy?
|
Yes I find this odd to but ITAR has said she will do work up and dive trial in Black Sea who knows for sure
|
yeah a very confusing report. On top of that, Id also like to point out that B262 Stary Oskol, the sub in question is shown as commissioned in the Russian navy since June of 2015. If the wernt performing trails and work ups, what in the world were they doing sitting in the Barents sea for a year??
|
Nato has the north atlantic wired for sound. I doubt we have the Baltic covered in such a fashion.
I wonder what being surfaced does to the sonar signature? Perhaps distorts it enough that it cannot be accurately tied to the individual submarine? You know darn well we have someone in trail recording every sound that thing makes. |

Takes a trained operator on passive sound sensors to take a look, but the computer is needed for matching past sound graphs to make sure. The problem comes from when the CO wants information and he wants it now. :o |

And I meant the Black Sea when I typed Baltic in the previous post. :doh: |
Those underpowered Russkies!
