Project 206 torpedo boats m. Project 206 torpedo boat. History of the project

Project hydrofoil torpedo boats 206-M "Storm" (according to NATO classification - Turya class torpedo boat) was designed at Almaz Central Design Bureau under the guidance of engineers I.P. Pegov and A.P. Gorodyanko as a modification of the project 206 boat.
Boats 206-M differed from original project reinforced artillery armament, larger corps missile boat project 205, the presence of a bow low-submersible hydrofoil and a controlled trim plate.
Due to the presence of a lowered GAS and the ability to use anti-submarine torpedoes, Project 206-M boats can fight submarines.


The hull of hydrofoil boats of project 206-M "Storm" is smooth-deck, steel, divided by watertight bulkheads into 10 compartments. Diesel engines are located in two compartments (fifth and seventh), between which there is a post remote control main mechanisms. Three diesel installations M-504 with three shafts give a speed of up to 44 knots. The superstructure is made of light alloys.
Cruising range from 600 to 1450 miles. Crew - 25 people.
Project 206-M "Storm" hydrofoil torpedo boats are armed with twin AK-725 and 2M-3M gun mounts, as well as four 53-56 or SET-65 torpedo launchers.
The use of weapons without restrictions is possible at speeds up to 40 knots with sea waves up to 4 points and up to 35 knots with waves 5 points.

From 1971 to 1976, 24 ships of this type were built for the Soviet Navy. Eight boats were part of the Pacific Fleet and had a folding wing, which made it possible to transport them across railway.
Also, from 1978 to 1985, at the Vladivostok Shipyard, by order of the governments of Vietnam, Cuba, Ethiopia and other countries, 16 boats were built under the 206ME project, which were not equipped with a lowered sonar. In total, 5 boats were sent for Vietnam, 2 for Cambodia and Ethiopia, 9 for Cuba, and one more ship for the Seychelles.
At the moment, the ships Karachay-Cherkessia, Budennovsk and Borovsk are in the ranks of the Russian Navy. Two ships from the Soviet Navy were later sold to Lithuania.

PROJECT 206M (206ME) STORM TORPEDO BOATS

TORPEDO BOATS OF THE PROJECT 206М (206МЭ) «STORM»

The large torpedo boat pr. 206M "Storm" was designed at the Almaz Central Design Bureau under the direction of I.P. Pegov and A.P. Gorodyanko as the development of torpedo boats pr. 206.
It differed from the basic project in reinforced artillery armament, a larger hull of the Project 205 missile boat, the presence of a low-submerged bow hydrofoil and a controlled trim tab. Thanks to the presence of a lowered GAS and the ability to use anti-submarine torpedoes, he could fight submarines.
The main task was to strengthen artillery weapons, since boats equipped with 76 mm caliber artillery mounts appeared in NATO countries during this period, and domestic boats had 30mm mounts. A 57-mm AK-725 installation with a Bars control system and a twin 25-mm installation were placed on the Project 206M TKA. The placement of the GAS MG-329 lowered on the "foot" made it possible to use anti-submarine torpedoes from 533-mm torpedo tubes. Thanks to the installation of a bow PC and a controlled trim plate, it was possible to achieve an increase in seaworthiness. With a full displacement of 250 tons, the boat developed a speed of 44 knots in calm water and 36 knots in a sea of ​​5 points.
The hull is smooth-deck, steel, divided by watertight bulkheads into 10 compartments. Diesel engines are located in two compartments (fifth and seventh), between which there is a remote control post for the main mechanisms. Three diesel installations M-504 with three shafts give a speed of up to 44 knots. The superstructure is made of light alloys. Cruising range from 600 to 1450 miles. Crew - 25 people.
Armed with twin gun mounts AK-725 and 2M-3M, as well as four torpedo tubes for launching torpedoes 53-56 or SET-65. The use of weapons without restrictions is possible at speeds up to 40 knots with sea waves up to 4 points and up to 35 knots with waves 5 points.
In 1963, plant No. 5 built an experimental boat of project 205E according to the design of TsKB-5. on which, in order to increase propulsion and seaworthiness, a low-submerged bow wing with inclined stabilizers and a trim plate are installed.
The lead boat of project 206M was built at the Almaz Production Association Primorsky plant in 1972-1973.
In total, PO Almaz, Vladivostok, Rybinsk and Sredne-Nevsky shipyards built 24 boats of project 206M, 19 of them with a stationary bow wing (NKU-1), and the rest with NKU-2, equipped with automatically controlled flaps and folding stabilizers . Thanks to the latter, the mooring of boats was simplified.
Eight boats were part of the Pacific Fleet and had a folding wing, which made it possible to transport them by rail. Also, from 1978 to 1985, at the Vladivostok Shipyard, by order of the governments of Vietnam, Cuba, Ethiopia and other countries, 16 boats were built under the 206ME project, which were not equipped with a lowered sonar. In total, 5 boats were sent for Vietnam, 2 for Cambodia and Ethiopia, 9 for Cuba, and one more ship for the Seychelles.
After the collapse of the USSR, the boats Karachay-Cherkessia, Budyonnovsk and Borovsk were in the Russian Navy. Two ships from the USSR Navy were sold to Lithuania.
Currently, there are 2 TKAs in the Caspian Flotilla

The torpedo boat pr. 206M (code "Storm") was designed at the Almaz Central Design Bureau under the direction of I.P. Pegov and A.P. Gorodyanko as a development of boats pr. 206. It differed from the prototype, first of all, in reinforced artillery weapons, as well as slightly increased hull sizes, the presence of a low-submerged bow hydrofoil and a controlled transom plate.

In addition, the 206M project boat, due to the presence of a lowered (in some sources classified as a lowering) GAS and the ability to use anti-submarine torpedoes, could solve anti-submarine tasks. It was classified as a large torpedo boat (BTKA) and was intended to combat ships, lightly armed surface ships and submarines in coastal areas.

The hull is smooth-deck, steel, divided by watertight bulkheads into 10 compartments. Diesel engines were located in two compartments (fifth and seventh), between which there is a remote control post for the main mechanisms. The superstructure is made of light alloys.

The use of weapons without restrictions is possible at speeds up to 40 knots with sea waves up to 4 points and up to 35 knots with waves 5 points.

In total, in the period from 1971 to 1976, 24 ships of this type were transferred to the Soviet fleet. Moreover, eight boats that were part of the Pacific Fleet had a folding wing, which made it possible to transport them by rail.

In addition, in 1978-1985. at the Vladivostok Shipyard, by order of the governments of Vietnam, Cuba and Ethiopia, 16 boats were built according to Project 206ME. They did not have a lowered GAS.

In 1987-1990 at the same shipyard, eight more boats, project 02065, were built for export, armed with 76-mm (AK-176) and 30-mm (AK-630M) AU, but without 533-mm TA and wing devices.

As of December 2001, with Russian fleet there were two boats, pr. 206M. (Another two ships of the same type belonged to the Lithuanian government.)

Missile boats of project 206MR code "Whirlwind"- a type of Soviet missile boats developed on the basis of project 206M torpedo boats at the Almaz Central Design Bureau under the leadership of A.P. Gorodyanko. The boats were intended to destroy large enemy ships in the coastal areas of naval bases and guards. water area. With a small total displacement of 257 tons, the boat received powerful strike and artillery weapons: 2 P-15M Termit anti-ship missile launchers, one 76-mm AK-176 gun mount and one 30-mm AK-630M assault rifle with Vympel control radar. From 1976 to 1983 on Sredne-Nevsky shipyard(Ponton settlement near Leningrad) 12 boats of this project were built for the Soviet Navy. Not exported.

Design Description

Frame

The boat has a smooth-deck steel hull with a low-submerged bow wing with round-chine contours in the bow and a controlled transom plate with sharp-chine contours in the stern. On the deck there is an extended superstructure made of lightweight AMG alloy with a conning tower and an open navigation bridge in the bow. The boats could use their entire weapons arsenal with a wave of up to 5 points at speeds up to 35 knots and at 4 points without restrictions.

Scheme of the general arrangement of the RCA project 206MR

Unsinkability was ensured by dividing the hull with watertight bulkheads into 10 compartments:

1. Forepeak; 2. Kubrick No. 1 for 12 people, artillery room, fresh water tank; 3. Kubrick No. 2 for 5 people, midshipman's cabin; 4. Cabins for officers, vestibule, fuel tanks; 5. Engine room No. 1; 6. Post of remote control of the main mechanisms, PEV, fuel tank; 7. Engine room No. 2; 8. Post of pre-launch preparation of missiles No. 1, fuel tank; 9. Post of pre-launch preparation of missiles No. 2; 10. Afterpeak.

The boat remained afloat when any two adjacent compartments were flooded.

Main power plant

Three-shaft power plant with three diesel engines of the main course M-504, 5000 hp each. each machine with reverse gears, which provided forward, reverse and idling with a constant rotation of the crankshaft and transmitted rotation to three three-blade fixed-pitch propellers. Diesel engines are equipped with an automatic signaling and protection system.

Auxiliary power plant

The alternating current electric power system included 1 diesel generator DG-200 with a capacity of 200 kW and 1 diesel generator DG-100 with a capacity of 100 kW, located one by one in two engine rooms.

Armament

anti-ship weapons

RCC P-15M "Termite"

Project 206MR boats were equipped with 2 non-guided, non-stabilized, non-armored, non-damped container launchers KT-97M for launching P-15M Termit anti-ship missiles with wings that fold and automatically fold out after launch. Launchers are located in the stern, one on each side, have a constant elevation angle. The upgraded anti-ship missiles P-15 "Termite" had a range of 80 km. at an altitude of 25-50 m, cruising speed 350 m/s, warhead weight 480 kg.

Anti-aircraft missile weapons

The boats were equipped with an anti-aircraft missile launcher and several MANPADS with a full ammunition load of 16 Strela-3 short-range self-defense missiles. The anti-aircraft installation is located at the stern and is a stabilized marine pedestal installation with four guides for launching 4 Strela-3 missiles. The speed of the 9K34 SAM is 670 m/s, the firing range is from 500 to 4500 meters, in height - from 15 to 3000 meters at a target speed of up to 310 m/s.

Artillery armament

The artillery of the boats includes one single-barreled automatic 76-mm turret-type artillery mount AK-176 with a long barrel of 59 calibers, located in the bow.

The rate of fire of the installation is 30, 60 or 75 shots / min. on the barrel, after 75 shots a break in shooting is required for 30 minutes. Cooling of the barrel is continuous external, outboard water at a speed of 3.5 m / s, which was passed between the casing and the monoblock. Angle of vertical guidance from -10 to +85°, and horizontal to 120°. The initial velocity of the projectile is 850 m/s, the firing range against surface targets is up to 15 km. The power supply of the automatic machines is continuous, clip-on, from both sides. Ammunition AK-176 - 316 shots. The tower is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy AMG-61 with a thickness of 4 mm.

At the stern of the boats for combating low-flying targets, there is a six-barreled 30-mm AK-630M automatic gun mount with a long barrel of 54 calibers, two belt magazines for 2000 rounds and a spare belt of 1000 rounds each. Firing range - 4000 m, rate of fire - 4000-5000 rounds / min. In the standard mode, firing is carried out in 4-5 bursts of 20-25 rounds, starting from the maximum range, at the distance of the most effective fire, fire is fired in bursts of 400 rounds with a break between bursts of 3-5 seconds.

Means of communication, detection and fire control

For automatic control of artillery fire, boats were equipped with MP-123 Vympel-A, in case of failure, the bow AK-176M gun could fire manually, and the stern AK-630 from the sighting column. The P-15M Termit anti-ship complex was controlled from the Rangout radar (starting from the sixth building - 4Ts53 Harpoon), the Omega navigation radar (not available on the R-15 boat).

Built ships

In total, from 1976 to 1983, 12 boats of project 206MR were built at the Sredne-Nevsky shipbuilding plant. Seven ships remained to serve in the Baltic Fleet, subsequently 1 was transferred to the Black Sea Fleet, and 4 more boats were transferred to the Caspian Flotilla in the late 90s. Immediately after being accepted into the fleet, five boats were transferred to the Black Sea Fleet through inland waterways, where they served until the collapse of the Soviet Union. With the division of the Black Sea Fleet of the USSR, 5 boats became part of Navy Ukraine, one of them "P-15" at the end of the 90s was sold to Georgia and became part of its fleet under the name "Tbilisi". During Forcing Georgia to Peace (August 2008), a missile boat was captured in the port of Poti by Russian foremen and destroyed. The R-44 missile boat, upgraded according to project 2066, remained in service with the Russian Black Sea Fleet.

Russian Navy

After the collapse of the USSR, 4 missile boats of the Baltic Fleet of project 206MR: "R-25"; "R-27"; "R-30" and "R-50" were transferred to the Caspian Military Flotilla through inland waterways. One of them "R-27" in April 2002 was withdrawn from the flotilla and decommissioned, the three remaining at the end of 2014 still continue to serve in the flotilla. RCA "R-44" after the division of the Black Sea Fleet continued to serve in the Russian Navy. The boat was part of the 295th Sulinsky division of missile boats of the 41st brigade of missile boats based on the Karantinnaya Bay of Sevastopol. By 2005 he was in the sludge. On 10/05/2008, the Naval flag was lowered on the ship, and the ship was withdrawn from the fleet. On March 17, 2009, the boat was transferred from Karatinnaya Bay to Inkermansk. In March-April 2009, the boat was cut into metal at the shipbreaking base in Inkerman.

Ukrainian Navy

Konotop U150 (until 08/12/1997 R-15): The R-15 missile boat of project 206MR was built at the Nevsky Shipyard in Leningrad, entered service with the Black Sea Fleet on 10/29/1981. Black Sea. After the collapse of the USSR, he moved to Sevastopol. On August 12, 1997, the boat was transferred from the Black Sea Fleet to the Ukrainian Naval Forces, where it was renamed Konotop (onboard - U150). On June 30, 1999, by prior agreement between the governments of Ukraine and Georgia, the boat was handed over to the Georgian military fleet, which had previously undergone repairs in Ukraine.

Tsyurupinsk U151 (until 01/10/1996 R-251): The R-251 missile boat of project 206MR joined the Black Sea Fleet in 1981, and was part of the 296th missile boat division of the 41st missile boat brigade, based on the village. Black Sea. After the collapse of the USSR, on December 30, 1995, it was transferred from the Black Sea Fleet to the Naval Forces of Ukraine, where it was renamed Tsyurupinsk (onboard - U151). The missile boat was scrapped in 2002 and dismantled for metal by a Turkish company at its base in the same village. Black Sea.

Uman U152 (until 01/10/1996 R-260): The R-260 missile boat was built at the Sredne-Nevsky Shipyard (Ponton settlement), serial number 246, entered service with the Black Sea Fleet in 1979.

After the collapse of the USSR, on December 30, 1995, it was transferred from the Black Sea Fleet to the Naval Forces of Ukraine, and there it was renamed Uman (onboard - U152). The boat was never introduced into the combat structure of the Ukrainian Navy, and after a long layover, the boat was excluded from the lists in 2008 and sold for metal to a private company. In December 2008, the hull of the missile boat with truncated superstructures was driven to the berths of a private ship-breaking company near the western shore of Streletskaya Bay. There he stood until the end of December 2010, when, from the inflow of outboard water into the hull, he sank right at the pier. In February 2011, the boat was raised with the help of divers and a floating crane, but two days later the boat's hull sank again in the same place. At the end of August 2011, the hull was again raised to the surface, sealing the leaks in the hull and draining the compartments. In September 2011, the hull of the boat was driven to the SMZ, where it is currently located. At the beginning of the ZERO, this missile boat was also going to be sold to the Georgian Navy, but due to poor technical condition, the deal was not completed.

Pryluky U153 (until 01/10/1996 R-262): The R-262 missile boat of project 206MR was laid down on November 30, 1979 at the Sredne-Nevsky Shipyard (factory No. 247), entered service on December 12, 1980. The boat was part of the 296th division of missile boats of the 41st brigade missile boats of the Black Sea Fleet, based on the village. Black Sea. After the collapse of the USSR, on December 30, 1995, it was transferred from the Black Sea Fleet to the Naval Forces of Ukraine. In 1996, the missile boat was included in the Naval Forces of Ukraine, and on 01/10/1996 received the new name "Priluki", with the assignment tail number U153. During the time of being in the Ukrainian Navy, the boat has numerous artillery and rocket fires with the main complex (in 1999). The missile boat participated in the exercises "Sea Breeze", "Fairway of the World", BLACKSEAFOR, in parades in honor of the Navy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation, training camps of ships of the Ukrainian Navy. On March 20, 2014, the flag of the Ukrainian Navy was lowered on the ship, and the flag of the Russian Navy was raised. On April 11, 2014, the Priluki missile boat without identification flags was taken out of Sevastopol by Russian tugboats outside the 12-mile territorial zone, where it was handed over to the Ukrainian civilian tugboat Bakai (Odessa) for towing to the port of the city of Odessa.

Kakhovka U154 (until 01/10/1996 R-265): The R-265 missile boat of project 206MR was built at the Sredne-Nevsky Shipbuilding Plant (serial number 248), entered service on 11/15/1980. The boat was part of the 296th division of missile boats of the 41st brigade of missile boats of the Black Sea Fleet, based on the village Black Sea. In 1990, the boat was named "Komsomolets Tatarii", and from 02/15/1992 it was renamed again to "R-265".

During the time of being part of the Ukrainian Navy, the boat has numerous artillery and rocket firing by the main ship complex (in 1997). In August 2008, when a detachment of Russian warships of the Black Sea Fleet was returning from the coast of Georgia, the Kakhovka RCA stood in the fairway of the Sevastopol Bay and tried to prevent the entry of warships of the Russian Navy. But the boat stalled and was carried away by the current to the shore, after which the tugboat of the Ukrainian Navy dragged it to the mooring wall. This was the last exit of the missile boat into the sea. By Order of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 878-g dated November 7, 2012, due to the expiration of the established service life, the loss of performance characteristics and the impracticality of restoration, the ship was excluded from the Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In December of the same year, the ship was disarmed. After a year and a half in the sediment in the Streletskaya Bay of Sevastopol, on April 24, 2014, the hull of the Kakhovka missile boat was towed to Inkerman for cutting into metal.

Georgian Navy

In June 1999, the Georgian Navy was replenished with the largest warship at that time. They became the former RCA of the Ukrainian Navy "Konotop", which received a new name in the Georgian fleet "Tbilisi and onboard No. 302. In the next 10 years, the boat went to sea more than once to participate in joint exercises with the fleets of all the Black Sea states, but due to the poorly trained crew, it did not particularly prove itself anywhere. In 2006, 2007 and the first half of 2008, he went to military service several times off the coast of Abkhazia, participated in the blockade of maritime transport between the ports of Abkhazia and Turkey. In early August 2008, the missile boat went to sea for the last time, but was soon forced to return to the port of the city of Poti due to a breakdown of diesel engines (according to unverified reports, the breakdown of the machines was disinformation, in fact, on the night of August 9, the boat participated in a clash with ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet and was seriously damaged). Be that as it may, on August 13, 2008, the Tbilisi missile boat, abandoned by its crew, was blown up by Russian servicemen at the pier in the port of Poti during the operation to force Georgia to peace (military conflict on August 8-13, 2008 between Georgian and South- Ossetian parties). During the subsequent fire, the missile boat burned out almost completely, sinking at the pier.

The torpedo boat Project 206 (code "Storm") was designed at TsKB-5 (since 1967 - TsMKB Almaz) under the direction of P.G. Goinkis based on the missile boat pr. 205. This predetermined the essence of many technical solutions in this project, primarily in terms of the composition and power of the main power plant in terms of artillery weapons, etc. The boats of pr. 206 were somewhat smaller than the boats pr .205, displacement and dimensions, which made it possible to provide them with more high speed move. These ships were classified as large torpedo boats (BTKA) and were intended to combat transports and lightly armed surface ships.

In the period from 1960 to 1974, 50 boats of project 206 were built for the Soviet fleet: 25 units each at the Yaroslavl and Sosnovsky Shipyards.

In addition, 41 more ships were built for export at the same factories, of which 11 were handed over to the government of Yugoslavia in disassembled form. At the end of the 1970s, those boats of Project 206, which were part of the Navy, were also sold abroad. A total of 66 ships of this project were sold, including those specially built for export. They were part of the fleets of Angola, Bulgaria, Egypt, East Germany, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, North Korea, Vietnam, Yugoslavia and the Cape Verde Islands.

(Leningrad) built four ships pr. 205T (plant No. 450 - 453, in the hull of the boat pr. 205U, but with four 533-mm TA instead of launchers for anti-ship missiles). In 1976-1977, for the governments of Somalia and Ethiopia, four more of the same boats were built according to Project 205ET, but with depth charges instead of 533-mm TA.

In December 1991, only six boats, pr. 206 and pr. 205T, remained in the Soviet fleet.

As of December 2001, two boats of Project 206 remained in the Russian fleet.
