    Looks like it's going to be replaced with an Admiral Gorshkov-class frigate, so does that mean it will be constructed at the Wharf Shipyard in St.Petersburg??

    So what's the story? Is the sixth ship cancelled, or not?

    Also, is there any clarity on whether it'll have AK-630 instead of Kashtan, like the last three Talwars built for India? Why not Palma/Palash or whatever? (Since they're not building Kashtan anymore)

    Ak-630 for sure.

    I think yard ordered them a while back and wanted to use them up.

    Should be noted that AK-630 has likely improved quite a bit with the introduction of newer more capable radar directors for them...

    It just seems cheap and something of a waste of available space - we know the Pr. 11356M can accomodate Kashtan-M guns there, therefore it should (conceivably) be able to acommodate Palma CIWS - AK-630 seems a waste. Further, even if one were to abandon the idea of a gun/missile CIWS, if you're going to use just a gun system - surely AK-630M2 "Duet" would be the ticket.

    But then, India seems to be happy with AK-630s instead of Kashtan-M in its last three Talwar-class frigates.

    It is a question of space... Kashtan requires at least one deck level for reload missiles and missile reloading equipment... it would not be that cheap either.

    A few AK-630s around the place with new digital aiming systems and radar that tracks targets and outgoing bursts of shells should be effective enough against most subsonic targets with more capable targets requiring a dedicated SAM, but most vessels will likely never need that anyway... especially patrol boat sized vessels.

    Many western vessels rely on MANPADS, so having a 30mm gatling is a much more versatile system.

    MOD wanted boats fast and cheap, hence the factory using spare Ak-630s they had.
    That seems to pretty much be the decision making process.

    Now the boats are late and the MOD is not happy with the price-effectiveness ratio, hence the 6th boat being in flux.

    Indian boats have short-range SAMs, Russian ones have nothing. Though the Shtil is thankfully VLS, so the response time should be better than the old launcher.

    I mean short range SAMs like the Sosna missile for example.
    Russian ships do not have Kashtan like the early Indian boats.
    They do not have the Barack + Ak-630 combo of the later Indian boats.

    All they have is the medium range Shtil.

    This appears to indicate that the sixth Project 11356M frigate for the BSF has not, after all, been cancelled (in Russian)

    The defense Ministry told how and what will protect Crimea

    ...

    It is already known that the Crimean group will be part of the southern military district. If we talk about the black sea fleet, Admiral finally will update it to the ship's structure - which earlier opposed Ukraine. After two years, the Navy will receive six new frigate of project 11356, ideal whether for action on the Black sea, and in structure of operational connection the Russian Navy in the Mediterranean. The ships will be equipped with a universal missile-artillery armament and modern radio means anti-submarine and air defence. Head frigate "Admiral Grigorovich" already launched. Kaliningrad shipbuilders laid back four - Admiral Essen", "Admiral Makarov", "Admiral Butakov" and "Admiral Istomin". The sixth ship will start building in the current year.

    At the same time black sea fleet to make six new diesel-electric submarines of 636 project. Two submarines must replenish the combat composition of the black sea fleet before the New year, two more - next year, remaining in 2016 m According to some data, submarines "ascribed" to the team of submarines, which will be based in Sevastopol. Earlier this connection wanted to place in Novorossiysk.

    What is the realistic date of entry into the Russian navy ? Why does it take so long for Russian naval ships to enter service after launch ? They seem to spend on inordinate amount of time in trials. Also, what is the planned air defense suite for the Grigorovich class ?

    Because 1.) 90s crisis and 2.) most of the ships are new types, so they take a long time to test out the lead ships. Same with subsystems.

    Mid 2015 is probably a decent estimate. AD is 32 VLS Shtil cells.

    Lots of new untested stuff that has to be installed and integrated into new systems.

    They are also moving to an entirely modular standardised building regime where before there were single role customised ships, now they have multiroled vessels hopefully in larger production batches, which means a wider range of technologies on each boat.

    Also... what is the hurry?

    They got into the current state over a decade or more and it wont be fixed in a few weeks or months. Proper funding isn't magic, though it is the only long term solution.

    No, it is not.

    There are various tests it needs to go through. If ship is launched, and needs to be accepted into service, corruption has very little to do with it. It is when the ship is being built where some of these problems lies. But even with those, it is mostly to do with constant changing of requirements (see the Ivan Gren ship).

    Far from only.

    Many of the enterprises were money starved for almost two decades, sudden cash infusion does not magically make up personal inadequacy. Most of the major builders are looking to boost their work force by anything from 1 to 9 thousand extra personnel.

    Sukhoi was smart for having their own education center to train specialists prior to them working. United Shipbuilding Corp really needs this as well, since they are in demand for specialists.

    At least it is creating jobs.
