    As you know the first one had a very protracted testing period. Same with the Ford class carrier. Zumwalts are essential clean sheets and every type 45 will have to go in for major rework. They miscalculated power loads and when they are exceeded the ship just shuts down... !! (probably fixed with SW to limit full power to the elec drive.). The missile system of a British destroyer actually crashed while they were under attack and by the time it rebooted it was too late. A new propulsion system will need to be tested and my feeling is this one was somewhat rushed for obvious reasons, but you can bet many Ukranian engineers are now working at Russian companies on these projects. The thing is, these are very complex machines and there is no software that can predict every element of the design today. Plus many systems are developed separately and THEN integrated. When that process happens all sorts of design goals start to meet reality. Power and heat budgets, software code that was poorly developed, simple mistakes etc etc.

    In aircraft and land vehicle engines they were working towards families of engines that can be scaled up or down to suit different roles and different weight classes of vehicles/platforms...

    They have not really had time to create new engines from scratch, which is a shame because ideally that would be the best solution going forward, but it would take too much time.

    It's gonna take at least 10 years considering how slow Russians are these days. My opinion Super Gorshkov is something like Type 052D in terms of size. About 7500 tons.

    The creators stated a Super Gorsh will be about 7k (Light Displacement).

    Should be about 7000 tons in line with modern European heavy frigates.

    Yeah but modern european frigates are very low armed for their size.

    22350M will also be better armed than the Chinese 052D.
    In addition to gun and torpedoes, the 052D has 64 VLS, while the 22350M will have at least 80 VLS: 48 UKSK VLS and at least 32 (the same number as in base 22350) Redut VLS, if not more.

    Anyway, I agree on the size similar to 052D, that is by the way almost the same size as the Udaloy class (Project 1155 Fregat), that is 163 m long, and with a full load displacement of about 7500 tons (normal displacement around 6900 tons).

    Udaloy class are among the most beautiful among ships in their size and have a very good hull shape and navigation characteristics. I am sure that the 22350M will also be a beautiful ship with excellent idrodynamic characteristics.

    Yup

    That's 50% more than the original Gorshkov and it fits with 48 UKSK tubes and extra month endurance

    Pretty much what they announced back when project started

    https://flotprom.ru/2020/%D0%9E%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%BA%D0%B0100/

    The Russian Navy will receive three series of frigates created on the basis of the ships of the project 22350. This was reported to Mil.Press FlotProm by an informed source in the industry.

    This is the first series of four frigates of the Admiral Gorshkov type with 16 vertical launch units (UVP), the second series based on project 22350 with 24 UVP (two were laid in 2019, two more are planned to be laid in the coming months), and finally about several frigates of project 22350M with an increased displacement of up to 8,000 tons with 48 CWP .

    Thus, the number of the first two series of ships of the project 22350 will be eight units.


    It is this figure (from 8 to 10 ships), according to the commander-in-chief of the Navy, Admiral Nikolai Evmenov, that is considered the lower threshold for serial production of modern corvettes and frigates. So he answered the question of the journalist Mil.Press FlotProm about the needs of the fleet.

    It is planned to build another two to four ships according to project 22350M: this series, the third in a row, according to the source of the publication, will be smaller. The completion of the construction of all 12 frigates based on project 22350 is planned for the beginning-mid-2030s.
    In fact, frigates are being upgraded from hull to hull, this process is ongoing, one of the designers told Mil.Press FlotProm earlier. Ships of the Admiral Gorshkov type have a certain modernization reserve, which will allow them to meet the requirements of the fleet in the next one and a half decades.

    So the overall number of new large ships over next several decades will be limited to 12?

    They really are aiming for small navy

    Why are they even bothering with several variants when there will only build dozen of them in total? It's a waste of time, slightly different hulls in the small series of ships don't change anything

    And worst of all not even all ships are identical and every single one will be one-off specimen with separate maintenance requirements

    This is all BS. Two weeks ago they said no lider no Gorsgkov M and now 4 gorshkov m. Add to that that most of their orders come from nowhere like the last Boreis.

    If they have money and construction speeds up they will order more to give shipyards work.

    Well first of all great... surprise surprise... the sky is not falling.

    Second, these are interesting ships but they are still only Frigates and increased size Frigates... the MVD or FSB might want some... they were the main operator of the Krivak class Frigates during the Cold War, but the Russia Navy needs bigger longer ranged longer endurance ships.

    Only planning to make 12 means they are getting close to producing bigger ships to replace existing Cold War Destroyer designs...

    Nah, that's just nonsense you're pulling from your arse. You seem to wanna hang yer hat on minor design changes introduced after the prolonged gestation of the lead ship (under sanction and >1/2 decade of supply chain disruptions) and extrapolate that over the next 15 years? ppffftt..

    nyway, I agree on the size similar to 052D, t wrote:

    already 22350 modernized with 24 VLS with anti-ship missiles has a firepower similar to the Type 052D destroyer. If the 22350 is armed with 3M22 missiles, the firepower of the Russian frigate will not even be greater than the Chinese destroyer. Russian frigates are better armed and have better anti-aircraft defense. Very Happy

    A Super Grosh shouldn't be that much different in maintenance tho, it's the same ship just bigger is all. Unless they are strapping new things into the hull but from what I understand it's the same ship with a bit more weapon systems that exist on the first versions.

    Pretty much

    In fact it can be counted as the same class of ship as far as R&D, maintenance, series production goes.

    12 ships for now isn't bad. No-one says that they won't expand that later to 16 or 20.

    Well I hope it goes that way

    They should really spread these between two shipyards

    I honestly think that Russian Navy absolutely doesn't need anything larger than Gorshkov (even Super-Gorshkov is optional at best) but that only works if they have more than a dozen of them

    They are barely producing these

    And how many decades will bigger ones take this time?

    Come on... they have produce a multifunction frigate design from scratch and have taken the time to properly test and evaluate that design with the added complication of it being a multirole vessel which greatly complicates proper testing and evaluation.

    After testing they have decided they want a bigger version with greater fire power... would you prefer to do what the Soviets did and just start building 350 Subs because numbers are important and then after making a few dozen find there are serious problems with them that mean they need a brand new design... how would that be better?

    Do you think the Americans are clever making lots of F-35s even though they are fundamentally flawed and might not even be fit for purpose?

    Where is the urgency that demands they make as many as China does... except on the internet... they don't need to pump out 15 brand new destroyers... they already have Sovs and Udaloys and how often do they operate on long range missions abroad?

    It is not complex, I keep telling you over and over... you don't mass produce your product until you are sure the damn design is right and the only way you can be sure it is right is to test the damn thing. Who gives a shit if China has made 15 new Destroyers... the US and Japan have more to fear about that than Russia does... at the very worst case scenario that is a few minutes work by a backfire force and Foxhound force with Kh-32s and Kinzhals...

    Russia doesn't need destroyers to fight WWIII, they would have almost zero impact on the result anyway. These larger ships are about giving Russia a tangible presence around the world, and to secure sea lanes of transit and communications... nothing more.

    They wont be needing Destroyers till the Helicopter carriers are operational anyway...

    A Super Grosh shouldn't be that much different in maintenance tho, it's the same ship just bigger is all. Unless they are strapping new things into the hull but from what I understand it's the same ship with a bit more weapon systems that exist on the first versions.

    The whole point of getting the design right is so it can be scaled up by adding extra modules if needed... it is supposed to speed up design and production... it wont take 10 years... the point of the multirole modular design is to make it scalable but still compatible... during the Cold War a destroyer was too small to be fully multirole... it would have a primary armament and secondary defensive systems so it could defend itself from everything, but was optimised to attack one thing... for the Sov it was ships, for the Udaloy it was subs... they still all could fight ships and subs and aircraft, but only the very big ships had both anti ship and anti sub weapons and also air defence systems that could cover other ships nearby.

    It meant a Udaloy used Metel missiles and Sov used Sunburns, and of course the Kirovs had Granits and Metel... but with the new modular armament concepts they can use all the weapons... from corvette to cruiser and carrier.

    I honestly think that Russian Navy absolutely doesn't need anything larger than Gorshkov (even Super-Gorshkov is optional at best) but that only works if they have more than a dozen of them

    During the cold war they planned to build 41 Krivak class Frigates, but the modern Russian Navy is not going to be as big as the Soviet one, so I would doubt they need more than 18-24 of them... plus about 8-12 cruiser equivalents in the 18-20K ton weight range to operate with four helicopter carriers and two new CVNs... it would be a powerful and capable fleet that could operate anywhere...

    They currently have two Kirov class cruisers, and about 3 Slava class cruisers and a dozen or so Sovs and Udaloys... eventually they will need to be replaced, and making one new Destroyer type to replace the destroyers and one Cruiser type to replace all the Cruisers is not that big a deal.

    Well in Zaliv (the shipyard in Kerch, Crimea) they built several of the krivak 1 class frigates between 1968 and 1980 and also, from 1980 to the end of soviet union, 8 of the Krivak III class (all the destined to the Soviet border guards, except the last one that became the flagship of the Ukrainian navy).

    As said before there is the capacity to build them.

    Even Yantar shipyard (that papadragon always criticizes) has been recently able to build and commission Krivak IV class frigates (indian Taiwar class and russian Grigorovich class) in a decent timeframe (about 3 years).

    If they had availability of engines Russia could build grigorovich class frigates (not inferior to the Chinese 054A class) with a very high pace. And that was the reason that motivated the russian navy to order those for the black sea fleet, since they are decent ships (even if not comparable to Gorshkov class) and using proven and tested technology.

    Later problems and delays were only due to the non delivery of the engines.


    The lack of engines also caused a delay for the 3th and 4th ship of the Gorshkov class, the work for which was delayed for a few years.

    Anyway, the engines were not the cause of the delays for Gorshkov and Kasanatov frigates....(the pilot ship and the first serial ship)...the problems for Gorshkov class, as it has been written many times, were mainly due to the novelty of sensors and weapon systems, and the fact that the pilot ship was practically used as test platform for all the new technologies that Russia wanted to introduce.

    The engines issue should be solved for Gorshkov class, and the novel technologies have now all been developed and tested, so I do not see why they should not be able to build them at a decent pace and possibly in more than one shipyard. The only thing needed for this is money to be spent, and priority given among the orders in the various shipyards.
