CV-17 Shandong (002 carrier) Thread I ...News, Views and operations

[Jura The idiot]

That's a pretty bad example, since Russia was out-sourcing production to Ukraine, and now that Ukrainian GTs are out, the Russian Navy is having Saturn produce the domestic M90FR, which will come on line in the next 2-3 years. It's not like anyone doubts that Russia could produce marine GTs if it wanted to.

let me add M70FRU:

basic specs:

anyway, a bigger problem are domestic reductors for domestic gas turbines Mar 4, 2017

they said they invested three point two billion Rubles into

(in short: the part of the Zvyezda company responsible for reductors)

let's wait and see

I know they succeeded to produce domestic reductors for domestic diesels Jun 25, 2017

EDIT but as I said in
Russian Military News, Reports, Data, etc.
let's wait until 2030 to see how their replacement propulsion works in reality, and if it's not so "superb" as the RN Type 045 propulsion

or alas! the US LCSs propulsion

Severals years ago they say ready for now and finaly 2020 if all is good... different, waiting...

Is this photo posted before look like they test boiler 2 and 4
after successful testing of boiler 1 and 3

Yes, already posted but from what can You identify that here the boiler 2 and 4 were tested after a successful testing of boiler 1 and 3 earlier !??

 

[Hendrik_2000]

Because it come after the earlier test

 

[Deino]

Because it come after the earlier test

Sorry, then my question was misleading.

Why boilers 1 6 3 at first and the 2 & 4 ?? .. why not 1 & 2 and the 3 &4 ?

 

[Hendrik_2000]

Just my speculation I assume there are 4 propeller shaft If they arrange 1 and 3 on starboard side of the ship and 2 and 4 on the port side
I am no naval engineer some people here maybe can give you definite answer as to the standard practice of ship engine testing

The numbering of the boilers have no real meaning. It is likely on a warship all 4 boilers would be identical and any boiler can route its steam to any of the turbines to form an ad hoc unitized propulsion cell. So 1 and 3 and then 2 and 4 may just be random and reflect a non-purposed selection of the testing order.

Well the Ukrainian crisis began in 2013 so 6-7 years to develop a new marine GT is not exactly a slow timeline.
