KILO and SCORPENE - difference in similarities nasa merchandise Due to the heated argument on the basis why we opted for 2 scorpene class subs and not 6 Kilo class subs like what the Vietnamese did....here are a full length explanation from a lay man point of view on the said issue... Before we go further....lets have a look at both the Kilo class and the Scorpene nasa merchandise class submarine...
sakilo...dua kilo..tiga kilo... The Project 877 (Nato reporting name Kilo) is a Russian made diesel electric submarine with the purpose of surface and sub surface warfare...protection of naval bases and coastal installations plus general recon and patrol duties. http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ship/row/rus/877.htm There are three variants of the Kilo class...the nasa merchandise original Project 877 which came into service with Russian Navy in the 80s...the improved fire control system 877K and the wire guided torpedo variant of 877M....while the export variant nasa merchandise would be the 877EKM....which is being operated by Indian Navy along with Russian and Iranian counterparts... Further development of the 877EKM lead to the interim design of Project 636...an Improved Kilo class which also being exported nasa merchandise internationally, including China. The 10 Indian 877EKM is equipped with Novator 3M-54E1 anti ship missile and was retrofitted to fire Novator 3M14 land attack cruise missile. http://www.naval-technology.com/news/newsrussia-delivers-upgraded-fifth-kio-class-submarine-indian-navy Meanwhile the Vietnamese had received 2 Project 636 Kilo class submarine from Russia and awaiting nasa merchandise for remaining 4 subs to complete construction. It is noted that the VPN is said to have the Kilo fitted with weapon system that could launch anti ship missile from sub surface depth but this is yet unconfirmed and there are still no evidence of missile firing had been conducted during exercise.... One should also take note that apart from VPN the PLAN also operated the 636 Kilo in a larger number.... The Kilo is said to be the quietest sub ever built by Russian...and it provides a capability to third world and developing nation a cheap and cost effective approach in having an undersea fighting capabilities...a capabilities that once were only cherished by the global military superpowers... However...Kilo class submarine...whether the Project 877EKM or the Project 636 does not have the ability to have an extended dive endurance due to lack of AIP systems.... this means that although Kilo is quiet...it still had to rely on its battery...and still have to surface to recharge her batteries....compared to subs fitted with AIP or AIP capable subs that will not require resurfacing to recharge its battery... as stated by ME Rubin design bureau on their subs technical details : quote: A significant increase in acoustic stealth submarines of Project nasa merchandise 877, compared with the previous generation was achieved through the implementation of a range of measures, including the use of low noise equipment, noise-absorbing cover housing, new methods to combat the emergence and spread of acoustic disturbances nasa merchandise throughout the ship. On the submarine propulsion scheme adopted single-shaft installation, the axially symmetric shape of the hull, optimized nasa merchandise ratio of its length and diameter. It is possible not only to reduce hydrodynamic noise submarines and sonar noise operation, nasa merchandise but will also provide nasa merchandise increased full submerged nasa merchandise speed and distance swimming underwater. To improve the stealth motion was adopted nasa merchandise by a brand new gas extraction system, leaving virtually no trace of the stern while driving under the RDP. PL architecture ensures its above-water status nasa merchandise on emergency filling one compartment and two adjacent to one side of the main ballast tanks. The improved body shape and design of steering systems provide high maneuverability submarine while swimming in shallow water and on the working depth can hold steady at periscope depth development of the sea waves. The power plant is designed nasa merchandise as follows full electric propulsion, which would be flexible electricity system to optimize driving modes under the RDP and the charging of the batteries. Back-up provided a submarine propulsion system to confidently swim underwater nasa merchandise and above water in case of damage of the main shaft and propeller, to overcome the minefields, as well as maneuvering in shallow and restricted waters when docking. The optimization of management processes combat nasa merchandise systems and hardware submarine was achieved rational combination of automated and manual processes, enabling high reliability and efficiency of management to reduce the number of crew. Were qualitatively improved performance submarine electronic equipment and reduced the volume occupied by them. Project 877 submarines are able to meet the challenges of anti-submarine and anti-surface ship at a great distance from the base as in the open ocean, and in the limited area. They have excellent opportunities of modernization, which allows to re-equip them with new equipment, electronic equipment and weapons,
