    It´s an anti-pirate vessel.
    Yeah I realise that, I mentally alternate between 'its anti-pirate -> doesn't need AA' and 'its 1500ton with Calibr & Navy not Coastguard -> should at least have a basic AA ability' dunno

    The Kalibers would mostly be used against opponents like IS in Syria. No need for air defence there.

    Damn, and when I said arm 22160 with calibers and Pantsir-M you get better corvette than 22800! Since displacement is bigger I am sure PAkce-NK + sonars would fit too ...

    Of course it's better armed when it's twice larger than light corvette Karakurt! Smile

    By displacement it's more comparable to Steregushchy class heavy corvette. Why do they need so many classes remains a mystery to me. And please don't say different roles. How can you call a patrol boat something armed with cruise missiles. It's like calling Kuznetsov a cruiser and 8000 ton Gorshkov a frigate. Make it sound smaller than it really is, so nobody can blame you for an arms race.

    Steregutschiy is a "coastal guard ship 1. class" or so.
    Karakurt is a "small missile ship"
    22160 is something like a "multipurpose patrol ship".

    For the russian Navy they are different.

    22160:
    Range: 9650 km
    Endurance: 60 days

    Steregushchiy:
    Range: 7,000 km
    Endurance: 15 days


    See the difference? 22160 is actual long range anti-piracy patrol ship. Now they use Udalois and Slavas for anti-piracy ops and diplomatic visits. Waste of resources.

    These new ones will take the load off and free up proper warships for proper work.

    22160 can also do other interesting stuff, mostly related to deploying spec-ops and other ''shady'' work. And in real war they can alway act as missile ships, same as Karakurts.


    -----------------
    -----------------


    Question ALSO: Can mods rename this tread to ''Project 22160 Bykov-class patrol ship''?

    It's way past time to add class name in title since first ship was given a name.

    I know. RN can call them as they want, nevertheless technically they all in similar league. what's more range and autonomy  (in case of corvette variants less)  make it no less worth ship than 22800.
    M:y point is that could share one hull (corvettes and patrol ships) in longer series. Logistics and costs would be lower.

    True but we both know this is because is equipped and profiled to such mode. Once set with Pantsirs and Clubs (as for Algiers) still should have better autonomy and range than 22800. My just wonders why multiple classes? 22800, 21630, 22160? wouldn't be logistically simpler to set one type os ship?

    unless they want to experiment with 3 types and eventually one prevails?

    It also costs lot more than 22800 Karakurt, takes much longer to build and requires​ larger crew to operate it.

    They are not even in the same class, this is almost frigate sized vessel while Karakurts are missile ships. That's two ship classes difference.

    Every single warship has primary tasks and secondary tasks. Primary tasks are naval combat ops while secondary tasks are stuff like anti-piracy and special operations.

    This ship was designed to perform those secondary tasks as it's primary tasks and vice versa in order to free up other ships.

    Installing equipment that would turn it into standard warship (Pantsir, sonars, AA VLS cells) would affect range and endurance.

    It is also easier to export because it can be advertised as cheap frigate even though it's not frigate. Light and cheap equipment package helps with keeping price down and customers happy.

    And most importantly for export it looks good. For some it's all that matters, just look at stuff French are selling to Arabs.

    To say they are all the same is like saying a tank and a howitzer are the same, because they both got a gun.

    Also the Stereg. was developed at the beginning of the 00`s. It was another time back than. Its successor Derskii is bigger and totaly different.

    Meanwhile the hull is not a great problem for logistics. The engines, systems, electronics and weapons are. Much of this is already standardised. They didn´t develop a new cruise missile for the Bykow.

    Russians definitely lack standarization. While US navy is building Arleigh Burke destroyers and Ford CVNs, Russians are building 8 different classes from 22160 to Gorshkov.
    Every class uses different engine, while even ships of the same class use different cruise missiles Onyx and Kalibr for no clear reason.

    CIWS is Palash on Gorshkov and Pantsir M on 22160

    AA defense: Buk on Grigorovich, Tor on Neustrashimy and S 350 on Derzky

    Palash was standard CIWS long before Pantsir was navalized. Pantsir is now standard CIWS and has just entered service.

    You are talking about ships with over two decades between each of them.

    situation is not perfect indeed. Cannot understand why too. But recent 5 years was not so easy to plan long range either. As for US Navy thisnot entirely true, there are 2 classes of littoral ships, couple of classes patrol ships and besides Alright Burke there are Zumwalt and Ticonderoga class




    Every class uses different engine, while even ships of the same class use different cruise missiles Onyx and Kalibr for no clear reason.


    On US ships you have Harpoons, Tomahawks and soon AGM-158C LRASM too. I presume Onix or Calibr depends on mission. They all are in UKSK universal VLS system.

    [/quote]

    perhaps because when Gorshkov entered service there was no Pantsir M? and 11540 was 80s design?


    Having 22800, 20631 and 22160 eventually also Project 1166.1 and 20385 seems to be waste of resoruces and strain on logistics. Just my personal opinion.

    They have enough variety of needs and wants that having a few different types makes sense.

    At least they are now fully multirole so if there is one type that seems to be better than the others they can change their production to focus on one or another to get numbers into service when needed.

    We are finally seeing phased array radar being fitted to give full 360 degree coverage... that is a bigger step forward than seeing the new Pantsir, because the issues with AESA arrays will take longer to sort out that any one air defence system, but once it is sorted it can be scaled to pretty much any sized vessel from Corvette to Cruiser.

    admit it 22160 is a sexey beast. Personally I hope it wins with 22800. As for Pantsir -once it gets 40km range 20km height missiles it makes AAD for little corvette pretty solid.

    Amiland has a big ocean on every side. They need big ships to travel around.
    Russia faces seas with different operational enviroments, so they develop special ships. No Need for big ships in the Baltic. But the Black Sea Fleet Needs long range ships for operations in the Med.
