Share the meaning of the word:
"Zamvolta" continue to break down. Double sensation
It’s not that “my neighbor’s dacha burned down – it’s a small thing, but it’s nice,” but it’s a fact. If the newest American destroyer “Michael Monsoor” had not made everyone happy with a breakdown, perhaps the news would have flown by. And so - sorry.
A breakdown of this level (one of the two main turbine engines) would, of course, be a bit steep for a start. DDG-1001 Michael Monsoor is the second of three destroyers. All ships of this type use Rolls-Royce Marine Trent-30 gas turbines. British turbines were hitherto considered one of the most powerful in their class, but no one said anything about reliability.
The Royal Navy of Great Britain, warships of Italy and the Republic of Korea are equipped with exactly the same turbines. And so... Stranger things continue.
However, this is not the first technical malfunction for Zamvolt-class destroyers. And, as it becomes clear, it will not be the last.
“Monsur” was dragged to the port of Bath in Maine, where they tried to decide its future fate in terms of the complexity of repairs and timing. Let me remind you that the ship is being tested, and the next stage was to check all combat systems.
Using a borescope, experts discovered damage to the turbine blades and generally sentenced it to replacement.
The American military decided to change the turbine completely, without bothering with repairs. As I understand it, the fracture of the blades is so serious that there is no further way.
Meanwhile, replacing half of the propulsion system (it is still unknown, by the way, what condition the second half is in) is not a quick or cheap task.
In San Diego, at the US Navy base, where the next stage of testing was supposed to begin, Monsur is expected no earlier than the fall. October November. And “only” 20 million dollars. This is exactly the amount the work of engineers from the General Dynamics Bath Iron Works corporation, which is responsible for building the ship, and Rolls-Royce specialists will cost.
What does this mean first? As well as the complete absence of cries in the Western press on the topic “ah, crooked hands!”, all this suggests that the repair is NOT WARRANTY.
There is an opinion, and it is not only mine, that the crew had a hand in the turbine failure.
However, why waste time on trifles! If for “Zamvolts” in general and for “Michael Monsur” in particular, breakdowns were something epically rare...
Let's remember how last December the Monsur had to interrupt its tests and return back to port just a day after departure. The filter system protecting the ship's electrical equipment has failed (completely failed). As a result, the destroyer lost the ability to use the electrical network under increased loads and had to undergo repairs.
And the situation is quite funny. “Monsur” has been undergoing testing for almost a year, but there is no end in sight.
Of course, problems are normal for a new ship. This is what tests are needed for.
However, not only the Michael Monsur, but also its predecessor from the Zamvolt series, the DDG-1000, encountered problems.
Does everyone remember that incident that gave us a “feeling of deep satisfaction” when the Zamvolt crashed into the wall of the Panama Canal due to engine failure?
The cause of the failure of the main propulsion system was sea water, which somehow inexplicably penetrated into two of the four bearings connecting the ship's engines to its drive shafts. It is clear that the bearings jammed and the shafts were unable to perform their functions. The “Zamvolt” cracked slightly, the damage was purely cosmetic, but it had a significant impact on prestige.
Here some readers may immediately recall “Admiral Kuznetsov”. Let's put it this way: a frankly old cruiser is one thing, a new destroyer is another thing. It’s one thing to have a power plant that smokes, but still moves the ship where it needs to go, and a completely different thing to have a power plant that can’t do this at all.
There is a difference.
It is clear that the US naval leadership is clearly disappointed with the “successes” of the Zamvolts. Who would like to get a dull vessel instead of a fancy new ship that spends more time on repairs than doing business?
This is the third Zamvolt that has not been launched. So we still have to see how life will turn out for this ship.
The third ship of the Zamvolt series - DDG 1002 Lyndon B. Johnson will become the third and last ship of the series. The production of destroyers of this type will be discontinued there.
It is clear that a rather pragmatic approach to expensive ships played a role. After the start of work on the construction of ships in the United States, they planned to produce 30 such destroyers by the 2030s. But Trump’s current policy has put an end to this. And the number of ships was reduced exactly 10 times.
Although I’m sure they won’t sit down in the USA if they fold their arms. They will just urgently (or not so urgently) come up with another project that will allow the corresponding branch of the military-industrial complex to exist normally. Well, you can’t just throw thousands of good American guys onto the streets, simply because Zamvolt didn’t live up to the hopes placed on it, right?
And just a couple more words on the topic of the day.
The Americans' newest destroyers are constantly breaking down. This is, of course, good. And the fact that they refuse to build new ones will also sadden anyone, but not us.
But the conclusion is somewhat sad in the end.
US destroyers are breaking down, but they exist. Or they break because they exist.
What do we have?
And in the Baltic we have ONE Sarych-class destroyer on the water since 1991, the Nastoichivy. It is also the flagship of the DKBF, which, however, has been permanently under repair for the last five years, if not more.
We don’t have such ships at all on the Black Sea.
There are 6 (six) in the Northern Fleet. BOD (Project 1155 Large Anti-Submarine Ships) are basically the same destroyers. Outspoken veterans “Vice Admiral Kulakov” (in service since 1981), “Severomorsk” (in service since 1987), “Admiral Levchenko” (in service since 1988), “Admiral Chabanenko” (in service since 1999) . And one surviving destroyer of Project 956 “Sarych”, “Admiral Ushakov” (in service since 1993).
BOD "Admiral Chabanenko"
Moreover, Project 1155 ships are really only dangerous to submarines. Only Admiral Chabanenko and Admiral Ushakov have anti-ship weapons.
Things are even sadder in the Pacific. Of the three Sarychs in service (since 1989), only Bystry, Fearless and Stormy are in reserve. We know what it is, don't we?
EM "Bystry"
There are also veterans of Project 1155. Conditional destroyers “Admiral Panteleev”, “Admiral Tributs”, “Admiral Vinogradov”. And “Marshal Shaposhnikov” is under repair.
That's all…
You can, of course, slander the American sailors who damaged the turbine on the Zamvolt, but somehow the fuse disappears when you see that the Americans have another 65 (sixty-five) Arleigh Burke destroyers. The oldest of which has been in service since 1991 and can carry Tomahawks.
EM "Arleigh Burke"
So the Americans can afford both expensive and long-term repairs in such a situation. Unfortunately for us, there is a lot to envy here.
