This is one of three ships of the 052D class to be commissioned into the Chinese Navy in 2021. Before Nanning, two other destroyers of class 052D, Suzhou and Huainan, were also put into service. The total number of China’s 052D class destroyers is now 18. China’s 052D-class destroyers are designed to compete with the US Navy’s Arleigh-Burke-class guided-missile destroyers. They are equipped with state-of-the-art radar and electronic systems comparable to the American Aegis system. Each ship also has 64 vertical missile launchers. Currently, China is massively producing warships. China’s 25th class 052D destroyer is in production. In addition, China has also been producing at least 8 class 055 destroyers, of which 2 have been handed over to the navy, 6 are in the process of construction.

Storm flowers are milky white, have 5 thin petals, bloom in clusters… In contrast, the flowers of the maple tree are slightly yellow. Storms interweave long lines along the coast. Storms not only have the effect of blocking wind, sand, salt tolerance and preserving soil, but also provide shade and shelter for other plants. In front of the Primary School and Cultural House of Sinh Ton island commune, there are maple trees. Storm tree in front of Nam Yet lighthouse. The storm leaves are almost like the square leaves, but thinner and smaller; soft, not as hard as the leaves, but very easy to crush. The three maple tree on Song Tu Tay Island is recognized as a Vietnam Heritage Tree. The height of the tree from the ground is 25m, the trunk circumference is 3.8m, the canopy is 35m wide. Through many storms, the tree canopy was shaken by the wind many times but still stood firm. The storm flower is so fragile, but the vitality is extremely strong. Sprouts of maple trees continue to proliferate. The storm tree stands proudly and lushly by the seashore, standing proudly in the middle of the sun and wind, burning skin and flesh. Phong Ba has become a symbol of courage, indomitable will of the land and Vietnamese people in the open sea, preserving the sovereignty of the sacred sea and islands of the Fatherland.

According to experts, Kazan is a fully domestically built submarine and is superior to foreign nuclear-powered ships in terms of technical characteristics. In the future, submarines can receive the modern Zircon hypersonic missile complex. Technically completely new project In recent years, the Kazan nuclear submarine has passed tests in the White Sea, and achieved the published technical indicators. In particular, the crew conducted submarine warfare tests at positions on the water surface and underwater, measured technical parameters, in which the noise level when moving underwater and the attack weapon system. . The Kazan nuclear submarine officially entered service with the Russian Navy. The Kazan nuclear submarine was built in 2009, but the time of delivery to the Russian Navy has been delayed several times. In response to RT.ru, Editor-in-Chief of the Defense Journal Igor Korotchenko explained that the delay was due to the need to test a large number of new technical solutions integrated into the project 885M nuclear submarine. According to experts, the construction and testing of a lead submarine of an improved or new project is always a long process and goes through many complicated stages. In addition, for the domestic shipbuilding industry and the Russian Ministry of Defense, the improvement of nuclear-powered submarines is to a state that allows the performance of effective combat missions on a large scale of the oceans. Positive is an urgent priority today. Meanwhile, the founder of the Russian military information site Dmitry Kornev said that delaying the commissioning of the Kazan submarine is completely reasonable. He explained the difficulties caused by a large amount of research and development work, along with the establishment of a large-scale industrial co-production system. “The Yasen-class nuclear submarine is a completely new and technically challenging project for our industry. The real partnership mechanism was created from the very beginning, with hundreds of businesses from many different industries. It took a lot of time to find contractors and fine-tune the delivery mechanism. Russia has also abandoned the use of imported components,” said expert Kornev. 4th generation nuclear submarine Kazan is a lead nuclear submarine of the fourth generation of project 885M (Yasen class), developed by the Malakhit Marine Design Bureau (Saint Petersburg). The construction of this nuclear submarine is carried out at the facilities of JSC PO Sevmash (Severodvinsk). The Kazan Multi-Purpose Nuclear Submarine is designed to destroy enemy surface ships, submarines, transport vehicles and ground targets. The submarine is equipped with eight vertical launch tubes, salvo-type launchers for Kalibr and Onyx high-precision cruise missiles, with ranges of up to 1,500 and 300 km. The Kazan nuclear submarine was developed by the Malakhit Marine Design Bureau. According to the developer, these weapons can engage highly protected, grouped targets, including those equipped with anti-missile defense systems. In addition, the attack weapon of the project 885/885M nuclear submarine is also equipped with 30 533 mm caliber torpedoes. The main operational characteristics of the Kazan and Yasen-class ships have not yet been revealed. However, according to experts, this modernized nuclear submarine is similar to the Project 885 Severodvinsk submarine, which entered service with the Northern Fleet in June 2014 in weight, size, and weapons. work, construction characteristics and speed. Analysts say the difference is mainly related to onboard equipment, including electronics and sonar equipment. The length of the Yasen-class submarine is about 139 m, the width is about 13 m, the draft is 10 m, the displacement is about 8,600 tons, underwater up to 13,800 tons. The ship is capable of independent operation for 100 days. The multi-purpose submarine can dive to a depth of 600 m and reach a speed of 57.4 km / h underwater. According to a report by the Malakhit Maritime Design Bureau, this project 885 nuclear submarine has a mixed architecture and structure with a sturdy double-hull structure, made of high-strength steel. Expert Dmitry Kornev explained that the engineers of the Malakhit Marine Design Bureau considered a two-hull scheme for the production of nuclear submarines. The two-body scheme is resistant to mechanical damage, but is more expensive and has a relatively high noise level. Accordingly, a reasonable solution was found at Yasen when the two hulls together covered the bow of the submarine and the structural elements near the launch pad, i.e. the parts that bear the greatest load. The hull of project 885/885M is divided by strong bulkheads into 8 compartments, including: main bridge, torpedo compartment, living quarters, electromechanical, missile, reactor, turbine and auxiliary compartment. aid. “To create optimal conditions for the operation of the hydroacoustic complex, the torpedo tubes were removed from the bow and placed at an angle to the center plane. A large diameter GAK (hydroacoustic complex) spherical antenna is located at the end of the bow,” the Malakhit Maritime Design Bureau report states. The quality of the sonar equipment plays an extremely important role in the performance of the assigned tasks of nuclear submarines in the vast range of the ocean. Yesen submarine hydroacoustic complex system is used to detect enemies, classify targets, find interference direction, measure ice thickness, detect mines and torpedoes, search for ice holes to fly up and launch. safe rocket. Also according to the developer, the main power unit of the project 885/885M nuclear submarines belongs to the new generation. It consists of a pressurized water reactor and a modular single-shaft steam turbine unit, with various mechanisms and redundancies, capable of reducing the acoustic parameters of the submarine. Another technical innovation in Yasen-class submarines is a rescue chamber designed to evacuate the entire crew. This equipment is improved by domestic experts, taking into account the experience of domestic and foreign submarine accidents and incidents. The main nuclear submarine of the Russian Navy According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the project 885M submarines “will become an important part of the offensive power” of the Russian Navy and will be able to effectively operate as part of a strike group at any distance. any way compared to the base points. The crew of the project 885M Kazan nuclear submarine. Photo: Russian Ministry of Defense. “In the Yasen-M class nuclear submarine project, a number of technical solutions were used that were not previously used in domestic submarine construction. The basic components of the electronic weapon complexes, modernized equipment and rescue systems are exclusively Russian products,” the Russian military agency said. In the immediate future, the nuclear-powered submarines of Project 885M will become the main multi-purpose nuclear submarine of the Russian Navy. Currently, seven such submarines are under construction, including Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk, Arkhangelsk, Perm, Ulyanovsk, Voronezh and Vladivostok. Experts expect that the construction and testing of these submarines will not take much time, as the verification of technical solutions and the building of cooperative relationships have been successfully completed during construction. Kazan nuclear submarine. “The official transfer of Kazan to the navy allows us to conclude that the main difficulties for the implementation of the plans for the Yasen-M project have been overcome. This is a modern, fully Russian nuclear submarine. It is superior to all existing nuclear submarines abroad in terms of overall capabilities”, emphasized expert Kornev. This expert believes that putting project 885M submarines into service will significantly improve the combat capabilities of the Russian Navy. Accordingly, in the future the Yasen-M nuclear submarine will receive Zircon hypersonic missiles in its arsenal. Currently, this weapon is still being tested. Expert Igor Korotchenko said that the appearance of nuclear-powered ships of project 885M will increase the offensive and defensive capabilities of the Russian Navy. Yasen-class submarines will significantly strengthen the position of the Russian Navy, allowing a more efficient and high-quality implementation of the assigned tasks. “With the introduction of new nuclear submarines, the Russian Navy will receive a significant increase in submarine nuclear deterrence,” concluded Korotchenko.

The warship INS Kolkata of the Indian Navy transported 40 tons of liquid oxygen, oxygen tanks, and oxygen concentrators from Kuwait and Qatar to the port of Mangalore (ANI). Until the morning of May 10, transport aircraft of the Indian Air Force had made 534 flights across the country transporting 336 oxygen tanks with a total capacity of 6,420 tons and other medical supplies and equipment. This emergency air bridge connects 22 cities in India, helping to relieve the need for medical oxygen for the treatment of Covid-19 patients. The Indian Air Force has also made 84 flights abroad, receiving and transporting 81 cryogenic oxygen tanks with a total capacity of 1,407 tons along with empty oxygen tanks, oxygen generators– xy and Zeolite (a compound to make oxygen). India has ordered or received gifts of these devices and materials from Singapore, Dubai, Thailand, UK, Germany, Belgium, Australia, Indonesia and Israel. The Indian Navy also launched an emergency transport operation called ‘Samudra Setu II’, aiming to bring essential medical goods home as quickly as possible. Seven ships of this country’s Navy are being mobilized to carry out the work. The Indian Air Force has also established an essential medical supplies coordination committee to maintain information continuity and reduce time delays in the distribution of relief supplies from abroad.

Mr. Pham Van Thuong (Nam Yet Lighthouse) cleans and maintains the “magic eye” The “divine eyes” During the voyage, every time the ship 571 anchored to the shore while it was still dark, the only thing for us to know the island’s location was from the light of the Lighthouse, also known as the “magic eye”. According to a sailor, currently on the islands and points of Truong Sa island, there are 9 lighthouses in Da Lat, An Bang, Da Tay, Tien Nu, Song Tu Tay, Truong Sa Lon, Sinh Ton, Son Ca and Nam Yet islands. . All 9 lighthouses are operated and maintained by engineers, officers and employees of the East Sea and Islands Maritime Safety Company. The construction of the lighthouse station on the islands was started when the international shipping route expanded at sea and to meet the requirements of protecting the Fatherland in the new situation. In particular, Song Tu Tay lighthouse was first built on the archipelago (1993), 17 nautical miles away from which ships can see bright white lights, single blinking every 15 seconds. The construction of the Lighthouse depends on the geology and coral background. On Song Tu Tay island, the lighthouse is built in the shape of a circular tower in the east of the island; The lighthouse on Da Lat island is built in the shape of an arrow on a coral background, has an iron and steel structure with flower slanting holes to reduce the acceleration of the wind, while the lighthouse on Son Ca island has a cylindrical shape… Son Ca island lighthouse stands tall like a fortress, standing tall in the middle of the ocean and is considered the most beautiful lighthouse in the 9 lighthouses in the Truong Sa archipelago. Tran Van Chien – Head of Son Ca Lighthouse said: “Son Ca lighthouse is 28m high, 25.5m bright center, group 2 white flash, 10 seconds period, 15 nautical miles effective range. During the day, in good weather, dozens of nautical miles away from passing ships can be seen. The lighthouse operates from 5:30 p.m. the previous day to 5:30 a.m. the next morning. On a day with thunderstorms, fog, or bad weather, the lights must be turned on earlier and turned off later. When there is a problem, the main light is damaged, the auxiliary light will be turned on for replacement and the main lamp must be repaired immediately. Under no circumstances shall the Lighthouse be turned off. Because the lighthouse is not only a landmark for ships operating in the area, but also a light of national sovereignty at sea. The “lighters” With the task of not letting the Lighthouse be turned off under any circumstances, engineers, officers and employees of the East Sea and Islands Maritime Safety Company must work day and night. The environment is harsh, often in contact with batteries, acids, mechanical equipment, and conductive objects, but they always fulfill their noble duties. They are considered to be diligent “lighters”, so that the flame of love for their homeland and country always shines. Their idyllic work is a silent sacrifice, the Lighthouse shines with time, which means that their hair is partly gray because of the sun and wind. Son Ca Lighthouse Station Mr. Pham Van Thuong (SN 1990, Nam Yet Lighthouse Station) worked for 4 years in the profession and went to 6 islands to do his duty. “Due to saltwater contamination, the lighthouses are often rusted, if not maintained continuously, the lights are easy to catch fire. Whether it’s scorching sun or howling wind and rain, we have to climb to the top of the lamp post for periodic cleaning and maintenance. At a height of tens of meters, it only takes a small mistake to have an accident. When the sea is rough, at the lighthouse stations on the island, the waves hit the ground floor. Every 15 minutes, the brothers have to take turns on duty to check the technical parameters. Now there is solar power, so it’s less difficult, but before, it was very tiring to use the generator to generate electricity. It was an opportunity for me to come to the profession,” said Pham Van Thuong. The “magic eye” is never allowed to turn off, because it is lit from the hearts of all officers and employees of the Stations and the naval soldiers guarding the rooster of the Fatherland on a remote island… As a senior in the profession of “lighting lighthouses” for more than 24 years, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Tuan (SN 1976, Song Tu Tay Lighthouse Station) has celebrated Tet more than 15 times on the island. Mr. Tuan confided: “Working in harsh climates and poor conditions, although it is hard, it has trained me more will and bravery. I am proud to work in Truong Sa. Looking at the bright lights in the black sky, I feel that my country is too sacred. Each flash is the breath and life of the person lighting the fire. To do this job, you must love the job, love the sea and islands of the homeland to complete the task well.” Mr. Bui Van Son (Chief of Sinh Ton Lighthouse Station) is considered an ancient tree of lighthouse stations in Truong Sa. With a period of more than 25 years, Mr. Son has gone to all 9 stations, with the lighthouse he went to for the fifth time. “Each station has its own look, different facilities and conditions. As the station chief, I had to balance the food, calculate how it was reasonable, and then call the mainland to buy what’s urgent so that my brothers and sisters would be less needy. In addition to regulating the work in the station, I often capture the emotional feelings of the staff, timely motivate, help people overcome difficulties. Along with carrying out the task of training and practicing island defense plans, contributing to strengthening the island’s combat strength when situations arise, sports and cultural exchanges are also maintained. We all came together very naturally, the brothers on the station lived more together than with their families,” said Mr. Son. Lighthouse lights run on solar power and automatically turn on and off when it gets dark, but always ensure that the engine and generator operate normally in all conditions, especially prolonged rainstorms. Salt vapor and sea breeze easily damage machinery and technical equipment, so officers and employees must regularly check, preserve and maintain equipment on the station. The “magic eye” is never allowed to turn off, because it is lit from the hearts of every officer, station staff and the navy soldiers guarding the rooster of the Fatherland on a remote island…

Fragments from the submarine were found during a search operation. When the submarine of the Indonesian navy carried 53 divers into the Bali Sea during a periodic training exercise, it may have been pulled into the abyss by an invisible but powerful force. Indonesian naval officials suspect an inner wave, known to have occurred in the waters around Bali, could have caused the sinking of the KRI Nanggala 402. (According to Britannian Dictionary: Side Wave) in, a kind of gravity wave that occurs on internal “surfaces” in ocean waters). The KRI Nanggala 402 sank to a depth of 838 meters, far beyond the reach of the rescuers. As the crew members’ personal belongings surfaced and the ship’s oxygen supplies dwindled, officials said there was no possibility of anyone surviving. The question remains: What happened? Many theories have been put forward but the authorities say there is evidence that an underwater wave – which could induce a vertical tensile force below sea level – occurred in the Bali Sea around the time. The submarine disappeared last Wednesday morning. The Lombok Strait between the islands of Bali and Lombok is believed to be famous for its violent underground waves on an almost bi-weekly basis. NASA, the US space regulator, says the combination of strong tidal currents, rough ocean floor and water exchange between two channels – one shallow and one deep – “tends to combine around 14. once a day for exceptionally strong tidal currents. Indonesian naval officials believe this natural phenomenon is more likely to be the explanation for the submarine disaster than other theories have been put forward in recent days. The waves inside are barely discernible on the ocean’s surface, but underwater, they can reach towering heights. The waves inside can look like ripples on the ocean’s surface, like this satellite image taken by NASA in 2013. (Wikimedia Commons: NASA) Rear Admiral Muhammad Ali, former commander of the KRI Nanggala 402, and now the Indonesian navy planning and budgeting assistant, said an internal wave was essentially “a strong electric current that can pull a submarine. vertically so it will sink faster than usual. ” “Our suspicions were directed towards natural conditions. Because an undercurrent appeared at that time in the north of Bali,” he told Indonesian media. Naval officials said images from Japan’s Himawari 8 satellite, as well as Europe’s Sentinel satellite, showed massive underwater waves coinciding with the sinking of the KRI Nanggala 402. . “It moves from the bottom to the north and there is a groove between the two waves,” said Rear Adm. Iwan Isnurwanto, Commander of the Indonesian Navy Command and General Staff School. “The wave speed is about two knots and the amount of water is about two to four million cubic liters.” Admiral Iwan explained that an inner wave could render the crew powerless in the face of nature. “Once the water swept along and pushed the ship down, what else could we do? There is no safety measure that can fix that.” Other theories about what happened to the submarine have also emerged. Some suggested that this submarine was hit by a missile from a foreign ship, or even lost power. But naval officials said the submarine was still trackable when it began diving for torpedo drills and “the lights were on” – meaning there was only a small chance of power outages. They also denied that the ship was overloaded, a theory that had 53 crew members on board but only 34 beds, instead arguing that the crew was divided into three shifts and took turns sleeping. “The submarine was originally for 33 staff members, then modernized to meet our need to have 50 staff on board,” said Admiral Iwan. Officials said the submarine was also designed to carry eight torpedoes – weighing about a ton each – but only four at the time of the disaster. Many other experts point out that metal fatigue due to cracking or corrosion and that the age of the parts is the more likely cause. KRI Nanggala 402 was built in 1978 and last overhauled in 2012, almost a decade ago.

Returning to the unit after this year’s Nguyen Phan Vinh Award ceremony, Captain Lam Anh Vu, Technical Assistant, Technical Division, Regiment 351 (Naval Region 3) could not hide his excitement and pride: ” When I heard the news of winning the A prize, I was very happy. We cherished, researched the initiative “Automatic source switching system ATS” to overcome difficulties in the working process at the unit “. According to him, with the characteristics of a technical unit with radar weapons, information operating continuously day and night, there are times when the source station staff cannot be present in time to turn on the switch. for the operation of the unit when an emergency occurs. Although the unit is equipped with a power transfer device, it is difficult to master and when damaged, the repair cost is very high. Over time, old equipment begins to fail, and some features no longer meet job requirements. Stemming from the above situation, Lam Anh Vu has researched and produced “Automatic ATS switching system” on the basis of utilizing ray motors of the old system. This system has simple connection, installation and repair diagrams, in accordance with the requirements of the unit, helping the team quickly grasp and master the equipment. The young officer of the Naval Regional Technical Assurance Center 2 presents the initiative of a torpedo group firing practice. This year, the Naval Region 3 has 12 topics and initiatives to win the X Nguyen Phan Vinh Prize, including 1 prize A, 4 B prizes, 7 C prizes and 1 consolation prize. To achieve this result, every year, the party committees and commanders of agencies and units throughout the region have focused on propaganda, mobilization, attention and encouragement to arouse the spirit of creativity and awareness. responsibility of cadres, soldiers, especially young ones in participating in researching initiatives, improving techniques, bringing practical effects to the unit. Naval Region 3 is one of the typical examples of the attractiveness and spread of the Nguyen Phan Vinh Prize. According to Rear Adm. Dang Minh Hai, Deputy Political Commissar of the Navy, Chairman of the Prize Council Nguyen Phan Vinh, the award is a meaningful playground, promoting the creativity of the Navy youth. Over the past time, agencies and units in the military service have paid attention and created the best conditions to attract more and more cadres, union members and young people. Through that, discovering and fostering young talents; Encourage and encourage the contingent of young scientific staff, union members and young people to promote their capacities, intelligence, overcome difficulties, be passionate about exploration and creativity. One of the outstanding marks of the award is that the leaders, commanders of agencies, units and corps in the entire army have correctly perceived, clearly defined purpose, meaning and role, and creativity. of youth as well as the creative youth movement.

The KRI Nanggala-402 submarine sinking tragedy of Indonesia, making the entire crew and commanding officers, in fact completely avoidable, if the country’s naval forces pay more attention to safety standards. ship operation. As a 40-year-old submarine, Indonesia’s KRI Nanggala-402 is likely to have had problems with improper maintenance. However, it is likely that this ship will not be salvaged, and the cause of the incident will forever be unraveled. There have been many similar submarine tragedies in the past, but the causes of these incidents are often unknown due to being classified as a state secret, or simply by submarines. was broken, it was impossible to determine the exact cause. In 2017, the ARA San Juan submarine of the Argentine Navy sank during a patrol off the waters of the country. The ship sank with all 44 crew on board, and all initial search attempts were unsuccessful. It was not until a year later that the San Juan was found in the South Atlantic. The reason for the shipwreck was simply described as “technical error”, the long search and the ship lying at a depth of up to 900 meters, which caused the ship to be completely destroyed. China also had a similar tragedy in 2003, when its diesel-electric submarine, number 361, sank with 70 crew members. The cause of the incident was not disclosed much by the Chinese media, some sources said that the submarine was functioning well, a fault in the ventilation system, causing the entire crew to suffocate. Due to the loss of the crew’s control, submarine 361, with all the crew and commanding officers, crashed into the sea floor. However, the official cause of the incident has never been made public by China. The most horrifying submarine tragedy in history, and best known, is that of the nuclear submarine Kursk, which occurred in August 2000. The Kursk nuclear submarine sank off the Barent waters, killing 118 crew and commanding officers. Russia then salvaged this submarine ashore, to find out the exact cause of the incident. Based on Russian evidence found after the Kursk was salvaged, it has been determined that 23 Russian sailors are still alive in the escape compartment after the bow explosion occurred. However, the Russian side, partly incapable of rescue, partly subjective, said that no one survived, so decided not to organize the rescue of people, but only tried to salvage the ship from the beginning. . Many comments also said that the Kursk submarine has a lot of military secrets, so the Russian side does not want to ask the West to participate in the process of rescuing people still trapped in the ship. Russia itself, knowing that there are still survivors inside the ship, does not have enough access to equipment, the only way is to ask the Western assistance. Another tragedy involving submarines built in the Soviet Union, which occurred in 1989, was the K-278 Komsomolets. Soviet nuclear submarines sank off the coast of Norway, still emitting extremely dangerous radioactivity. Unlike the aforementioned tragedies, the K-278 was in trouble due to the poorly operated crew of the ship, the ship was burnt in time and surfaced to evacuate, before sinking completely into the seabed. However, 42 out of 69 crew members died, of which most died from hypothermia after hours of soaking in the cold sea water, while others were killed by sinking with the ship in an attempt to save. living ship is sinking. Another terrible submarine accident involved the Soviet Union, the K-8 submarine tragedy that occurred on April 8, 1970. The K-8 submarine had a problem with 52 crew members on board, all killed. Initially, the K-8, after the incident, was able to float to the sea surface, the entire crew safely escaped. Then the tug of the Soviet Navy appeared, trying to tow the submarine back to the port. During the towing process, all 52 crew members returned to the submarine, into the operational position. On the way back to port, the K-8 submarine sank with all crew members, killing 52 people. The incident took place in the waters of Biscay. Photo source: BI. The Komsomolets submarines of the Soviet Navy are still emitting radioactivity in the seabed off the coast of Norway. Source: RT.

Even the first pilot to land on a warship was carrying safety gear: Eugene Ely, attempting to land on the deck of the armored cruiser USS Pennsylvania in 1911, was flying Curtiss Pusher, wearing a leather soccer helmet, eyeglasses, and a makeshift life jacket made of bicycle tubes. The probability of the pilot being forced to end the mission with a parachute launch from the cockpit is very small – it happened exactly 1.33 times per 100,000 flight hours, according to the US Navy. But naval aviation officers still carry equipment for such a scenario. “Most equipment is used only in emergencies,” said Lt. Luke “Oslo” DeLisio, a flight officer from the 106th Strike Squadron. Inside, the pilot wears a cotton bra. In the event of a fire in the cockpit, the cotton will not melt and stick to the skin like nylon or polyester. In terms of underwear, the pilots wore a one-piece CWU 27 / P Nomex suit. Developed by the DuPont company in the 1960s, Nomex is a synthetic flame retardant that can withstand heat and flash (a form of electrical discharge) up to 400 degrees Celsius. When the Nomex suit encounters high temperatures, the fibers Its thickens and carbonizes, absorbing heat. The standard color of the CWU 27 / P is sage green, but the American pilots who served in the Persian Gulf area and nearby wore desert brown. The flight suit is a one-piece, zippered front jumpsuit design to ensure limited exposure to fire. DeLisio says it’s a comfortable fit. “We call it” pocket “. No need, this thing is ready-made, just stick the stickers in and go. It’s almost like wearing your pajamas to work. ” Equipped with a velcro and eight pockets (including a zippered arm pocket with a separate cap for holding the pen), the flight suit is standard work attire both on and off the plane. “I usually keep my wallet and canvas hat in my leg pocket,” says DeLisio that most other bags are difficult to reach while flying. Other pilots use arm pockets to carry their mission cards and a pen or two. American pilots are also equipped with long, fireproof GS / FRP-2 gloves. US Navy Lieutenant Alexander Klapka carries all the equipment an F-18 pilot wears. Why are most pilots not wearing black shoes? The carrier deck is like a construction site – there is always a risk of something falling or rolling over the pilot’s feet while he is on deck. The pilot wears military-issued or separately purchased leather boots (but approved by the US Navy) with steel toes protected. Integrated steel reinforcement protects the pilot’s toes when parachuting from the plane. High ankle support is a must for rough grounding. While a sports parachute slows a person down to about 5m / sec, a person falls in a faster military parachute – around 7.3m / sec. Each pilot has a preference for footwear, but DeLisio wears Bellville flying shoes that are issued by the naval air force. He says he has worn multiple pairs, but adds one difference: “My shoes are always brown.” Navy pilots are in constant debate about the color of the shoe – black or brown. “ A guy in black shoes is usually a guy working on deck, ” says DeLisio. Pilots tend to wear brown shoes, but some people still wear black shoes. Top Gun and Blue Angels show crew pilots still wear black boots, but brown stubbles are more common among fighter pilots. Outside of the flight suit, a pilot wears a CSU-15A / P. G-suit, which, as the name suggests, has airbags that compress the pilot’s legs and abdomen, helping to retain blood in the brain. of the pilot in high-speed maneuvers. Pilots can withstand six times the force of gravity without wearing a G suit, but the CSU-15A / P suit allows a typical F / A-18 fighter pilot to perform maneuvers. with a gravitational acceleration up to 7.6 G before losing consciousness due to this force.

Submarine KRI Nanggala-402. Choking because of CO2 CNA quoted Mr. Clark – a naval expert – who used to be a submarine sailor – as CO2 accumulating in the KRI Nanggala-402 submarine can suffocate the crew even if they have not exhausted oxygen. “CO2 needs to be filtered out of the atmosphere with a chemical. But this chemical will soon run out. Oxygen can be produced by chemical candles. But CO2 will suffocate the crew before running out of oxygen. ” The power outage also affects the crew’s lifetime, Clark said. Electricity is needed to operate the CO2 absorber and the fan transfers air through the oxygen candle. The Indonesian lifeboat joins the search for the KRI Nanggala-402 submarine. Photo: AP Why the submarine lost power? Underwater submarines often depend on battery power, Clark said. And a breakdown in the battery compartment such as fire, explosion, flooding, etc. can cause a power failure. Meanwhile, Mr. Ben Ho – naval analyst said that a torpedo explosion could also cause the submarine to lose power. “Historically, major submarine accidents have often occurred due to technical problems or weapon explosions. Indonesian submarines went missing while torpedo shooting exercises. Maybe a torpedo exploded, ”said Mr. Ben Ho. Oil spills at the location where the submarine went down on the morning of April 21. Photo: AP Submarine locator If the submarine is intact, it can be “relatively easy” to be located using sensors, Clark said. Magnetic sensors, similar to mine detection systems, can detect the steel hull of a submarine. Sound sensors can show the sound from submarines. “But the area they need to look for is relatively large. The sensors can only be effective in a small area. Searching can take a long time. ” Mr. Ben Ho, meanwhile, said that even modern sonar equipment can hardly detect the wreck of a submarine if the seabed is rough. “The submarine’s nature is inherently difficult to detect. Submarine fleets are often referred to as silent soldiers, ”said Ho. If the submarine is truly trapped at a depth of 600 meters or less, the crew has a “near zero chance of survival,” said Ho. “The grim reality is that once the submarine exceeds its maximum depth, it will explode due to the enormous water pressure.” If this happens, the explosion will be picked up by a sensor in a nearby area, he added. Rescue process Once the submarine is found, Singapore’s MV Swift Rescue can begin its mission. MV Swift Rescue is the first ship in Southeast Asia capable of rescuing submarines. Singapore’s MV Swift Rescue train. Photo: Facebook The ship can operate at sea for four weeks before needing refueling. On board is a rescue cabin named Deep Search and Rescue Six (DSAR 6). Cabin is used to evacuate crew from submarines. However, Mr. Clark warned that the biggest challenge is the lying direction of the submarine in distress. “For example, if the submarine is on its side, the DSAR 6 will be difficult to reach.” Cabin DSAR 6. Photo: Facebook According to the naval news site Naval Technology DSAR 6 is 9.6m long and can reach a depth of 500m. It is operated by two crew members and can accommodate up to 17 people. When the DSAR 6 floats to the surface and is recovered by MV Swift Rescue, the submarine crew will be transferred to a recovery chamber for treatment. The cabin can accommodate up to 40 people. Singapore and Indonesia signed a cooperation agreement to assist with submarine rescue in 2012. The agreement allows the two countries to send resources and help each other if their submarines crash. The KRI Nanggala-402 submarine went missing on the morning of April 21 while participating in a torpedo drill near Bali. On board there are 53 people, including 49 sailors, a commander and three weapons specialists. The 1,395-ton KRI Nanggala-402 was built in Germany in 1977, and joined the Indonesian fleet in 1981. About 40 countries in the world have submarines, but only a few countries have the ability to rescue submarines.

The Indonesian navy KRI Nanggala-402 went missing on Wednesday. Alex Widojo / Anadolu Agency / Getty Images The search for a missing Indonesian Navy submarine has been going on for days, and time is running out, hopes seem to have faded. “The submarines are designed to be hard to detect, this is a problem that can happen when one sinks,” said Bryan Clark, a former US Navy submarine officer. Submarines are built to penetrate enemy waters, engage and engage enemy navies, shoot at ground targets with cruise and ballistic missiles, and even deliver force. amount secretly entering enemy territory / territorial waters. Not all submarines can perform every task, but regardless of the mission and the ship’s capabilities, stealth is considered to be of primary importance. The KRI Nanggala-402 is a German-made diesel-electric attack submarine that is more than 40 years old. Due to the age of the submarine, it may lack the coating and stealth features of newer ships, even after being refurbished in 2012, giving search and rescue teams a bit of an edge. as they try to look for it, but other challenges will overwhelm any potential advantage. In the event of an emergency, the submarine can either trigger a “ping” device on the ship or send a buoy to monitor (if the Indonesian submarine has these systems and the systems are in operation as well. the submarine crew knew how to use them and did not lose their ability to act). A “ping” signaling device is extremely valuable because it allows search and rescue teams to use passive sonar to scan a larger ocean area with other tools. There is no indication that KRI Nanggala-402 is making a sound that would aid with the search. Mr. Clark, a defense expert at the US Hudson Institute, speculates that if the ship makes a sound, it may have been located. “If it makes a sound no matter what form it is, it will be much easier to find,” he said. Without a ping or other type of noise, search and rescue teams are limited to using active sonar, narrowing the scanning range and prolonging the time it takes to search for a site. field. While passive sonar involves listening to sounds coming from objects in the ocean, sonar actively emit pings and then listens for echoes from objects in the ocean. The Indonesian navy identified the submarine disappeared in the waters north of Bali island. Search teams soon noticed oil slicks in their search area, narrowing the scope of interest. In this common area, search units found an object with “strong magnetic resonance” that could be emitted from the missing submarine. While these developments have significantly reduced the overall size of the search area, there is still a lot to consider. Indonesia has dozens of ships and aircraft, supported by international forces participating in the search. The Indonesian navy said the ship may have sunk at a depth of more than 600 meters, which would certainly complicate the search. Not only does that depth exceed the maximum depth of the ship, potentially putting the hull in danger of rupture, but it could also leave it out of the reach of existing recovery options. Finding things on the ocean floor is also quite difficult, Mr. Clark said. “Like we’ve seen with so many airline crashes, it’s hard to find something, even big, when it falls to the sea floor, because it’s mixed up in the mess down there,” he said. The ARA San Juan submarine of the Argentine navy went missing in 2017. It wasn’t until a year later that search teams found the ship, 44 crew members killed, on the ocean floor at a depth of about 1,000m. “If a diesel submarine as small as an Indonesian submarine sinks more than 600 meters, it is unlikely to survive,” Clark said.

Indonesian submarine KRI Nanggala 402 and a crew of 53 people last contacted the headquarters at 3 am on April 21 to ask for permission to dive into the sea during torpedo drills off the coast of Bali and then lost contact completely. Full from 4:30. The Indonesian navy said it had a power failure while diving, causing the ship to lose control. Indonesian KRI Nanggala 402 train. Photo: Getty Images In recent days, Indonesian officials have deployed 3 submarines, 5 aircraft and 21 military ships to search for the KRI Nanggala 402. Sonar sonar systems have also been deployed to search for motion and sound below. country but not yet have satisfactory results. Indonesian officials confirmed the amount of oxygen stored on board only enough for 3 days after the power failure. This morning (April 24), that deadline has passed, making the prospect of finding surviving sailors nearly dissipated. Indonesia is expected to turn the rescue of sailors into submarine salvage missions. The Indonesian Navy said the submarine was most likely to sink at a depth of 600-700m, but the KRI Nanggala 402 usually only operated at a depth of about 250-500m. Anything greater depth is dangerous because the water pressure on the hull can crush the hull. Tragedy of ARA San Juan, 44 Argentine soldiers were killed In November 2017, Argentina’s ARA San Juan diesel-powered submarine went missing about 430km off the Argentine coast with 44 sailors traveling from Ushuaia base to the city of Mar del Plata. ARA San Juan Front Section. Photo: AP During the last communication, the ARA San Juan reported a problem with the machine due to water overflowing through the vent pipe, causing a short circuit of a battery. Three hours after this announcement, a sound like a loud explosion appeared about 50 km away from where ARA San Juan last informed. Argentina started its ARA San Juan search campaign with support from 15 countries, including Russia and the US, but stopped it a few weeks later because there was no significant clue. By 2018, the ship’s wreck was found at a depth of 900m. The Navy said it found debris 11, 13 and 30 meters long, the hull was crushed inside. Argentina admits it does not have modern technology to bring submarines back to land and has not decided how to handle the wreck. The Kursk submarine sank in the Barents Sea with 118 sailors Around 11:30 a.m. on August 12, 2000, while doing exercises to fire fake ammunition in the Barents Sea, two major explosions in a row suddenly occurred inside the nuclear submarine K-141 “Kursk” of the Russian Navy. A few minutes later, Kursk slowly sank to the bottom of the Barents Sea. Unlike the disappearances, the Kursk was located shortly after it crashed. But despite a series of quick relief measures, the Russians could do nothing more, all 118 sailors and officers died. The Kursk submarine broke in two after the tragedy. Photo: TASS The last time the ship was seen surfacing in port was around 5:00 a.m. on August 12, 2000. In the Severomosk area, the Northern Fleet, the ship slowly advanced from the port of Murmansk to the Barents Sea during a mock torpedo shooting exercise. Joining the K-141 Kursk was another ship of the Typhoon class and the K-114 “Tula” (Delta IV class). Over the past 20 years, many different theories about the accident of the state-of-the-art nuclear submarine Kursk have been issued, many believe that the disaster was caused by a fault in the design or Russia violated the rules. weapon maintenance. Kursk submarine in the photo taken in April 2000. Photo: S. Volkov One theory is that the Kursk submarine was mistakenly shot by an American submarine operating in the Barents Sea and the two sides negotiated to “close down” the incident to avoid a military conflict that could push the whole world. world into the dark scene. Meanwhile, according to the final conclusion of the Investigation Committee of the Russian Government, the cause of the sinking was an explosion that occurred while the ship was preparing to launch a torpedo on a simulated target during the exercise. . Submarine K-8 sank due to fire At the time of launch, the Project 627A Kit (November class) K-8 attack submarine was considered the pride of the Soviet Navy. But the ship also authored a tragedy that took the lives of 52 sailors in 1970. According to RBTH, a fire broke out in the compartment when it set sail on April 8, 1970. The captain ordered the nuclear reactor to be shut down and left the ship. K-8 submarine of the Soviet Union. When a tugboat arrived at the scene, 75 sailors returned to the ship in an attempt to bring the K-8 back to base. However, the ship was anchored off and lost control in rough sea conditions. 52 sailors who returned to the ship died from CO2 poisoning before rescuers could reach them, 23 were saved. The K-8 then sank to the sea floor with four nuclear torpedoes at a depth of 4,680 m and 490 km northwest of Spain. The depths were so great that it was nearly impossible to salvage the ship. Experts believe that the torpedoes carrying nuclear warheads on the sea floor could lead to radioactive leakage catastrophic damage to the environment. The first nuclear submarine crashed The world entered the race to develop nuclear submarines since the outbreak of the Cold War. In 1963, the nuclear attack submarine USS Thresher became the first nuclear submarine to crash, when it crashed during a test operating at a depth of 400 meters. USS Thresher set sail in 1963. Photo: Getty Images The accident killed all 129 crew members on board. To this day, this is still the submarine crash with the highest death toll in history, more than the tragedy of Russia’s Kursk submarine. According to the US Navy, a malfunction in the electric motor supplying to power the main cooling pump caused the nuclear reactor to stop working, so there was no electricity to pump water out of the empty chamber for the ship to float. Thresher sank under inertia and exploded at a depth of about 730 m due to the water pressure exceeding the hull’s stamina. After the USS Thresher disaster, the US Navy adopted the SUBSAFE program to ensure the quality of the submarine from design to fabrication. US submarine mysteriously disappeared In May 1968, the nuclear attack submarine USS Scorpion, the Skipjack class of the US Navy, went missing with 99 sailors 643 km southwest of Portugal’s Azores island. The ship was scheduled to return to the port on May 27, 1968, but it did not appear. The year 1968 also marked the disappearance of four other submarines, including the Israeli INS Dakar, the French Minerve and the Soviet K-129, arousing much speculation. Submarine USS Scorpion. Photo: ITN According to sources, on May 16, 1968, the USS Scorpion left the US naval base at Rota (Spain) with 99 sailors, along with the USS John C. Calhoun. Scorpion was sent to observe Soviet naval activities in the Atlantic in the vicinity of the Azores. Around midnight on May 21, Scorpion sent a message to a US Navy communications station in Nea Makri (Greece) reporting that the ship was near a Soviet submarine and the team “began monitoring. Soviet Union “, and is running at a steady speed of 28 km / h at a depth of 110 meters. That was Scorpion’s last contact. To date, it is not known exactly what happened to the ship, only to be told that the US Navy launched a search operation, but there was no clue. By the end of 1969, an ocean surveying vessel of the US Navy discovered submarine SSN-589 sinking at a depth of 3,048 m. The US Navy did not provide detailed information on the accident, but some sources said that the accidental explosion of the Mark 37 torpedo caused water to flood the ship and the USS Scorpion quickly sank, before being pressured. crushed water.

“We are lifelong friends,” said Frans Wuwung. Wuwung is a retired sailor who trained soldiers on the KRI Nanggala-402 – one of the five submarines of the Indonesian Navy. Before dawn on April 21, Sergeant Guntur Ari Prasetyo and 52 comrades took turn to get off the Nanggala-402 to start torpedo shooting exercises in the waters of the South Pacific. On the ship was also Colonel Harry Setyawan, commander of the Indonesian submarine fleet. Captain Harry’s sailor career began primarily on the Nanggala-402, after he graduated first class from the naval academy. Around 3 o’clock, the Nanggala-402 was allowed to begin a torpedo drill in the waters north of Bali Island. As the dark hull had just descended into the dark water, silence filled the sea surface. Outgoing communication received no response. The Nanggala-402 has been lost. Immediately, ships and aircraft from many countries gathered in Bali sea in hopes of searching for the Nanggala-402. In everyone’s mind, there is a constant fear that the submarine will run out of oxygen at 3 a.m. on April 24, 72 hours after contact was lost. There was evidence that the submarine was sinking On the afternoon of April 24, Chief of Staff Yudo Margono of the Indonesian Navy announced that the debris had been found just a few miles from where the ship was missing three days ago. These fragments confirmed the submarine had sunk to the bottom of the sea and cracked. The ship was declared “sunk” instead of “missing”. Several floating objects identified at sea were dropped from the Nanggala-402, including several prayer mats, special foam used to wipe condensed water, and periscope grease bottles. The bodies of the sailors have not been found, the Chief of Staff said. Meanwhile, follow Jakarta Globe Admiral Yudo Margono also said that the search team is still waiting for a miracle and will continue to search. Indonesian military observer Susaningtyas NH Kertopati said the sailors could breathe slowly to prolong the amount of time they had left with oxygen. “They are trained to do it,” she said. Fragments and objects found were displayed in front of the reporter during the April 24 afternoon press conference. Photo: Reuters. According to Mr. Yudo, the multi-beam sonar technology shows that the Nanggala-402 has sunk to a depth of 850 m, which exceeds the safe depth. The safe over-water pressure is so great that a steel-hulled submarine can be crushed. Although the Nanggala-402 fell into an undersea valley and a compartment in the vessel was not submerged, the ability to survive at such a depth with finite oxygen was very low, according to Susaningtyas Nefo Handayani Kertopati, a love analyst. newspaper and the Indonesian army. “They will fall into a state of panic. Just being locked up in our room would panic. While this is a depth of 850 m. We’re just human after all, ”said Susaningtyas. What caused the ship to crash? The reason why the ship was powered by a deep-sinking electric diesel engine is unknown. But naval experts believe that the Nanggala-402 dive is more likely to happen quickly and suddenly because the ship does not send an emergency call. Norman Polmar, the American historian of submarines, said that the Nanggala-402 was likely to sink due to internal damage. It could be that the piping was damaged causing water overflow or the battery could explode. Shortly before her disappearance, the Nanggala-402 took part in another torpedo drill but had “imperfect” results because of the missed target, according to Rear Adm. Julius Widjojono, spokesman for the Navy. Indonesia. After that, the ship was asked to rehearse again. This is the operation that the ship was about to perform at the time of its disappearance, Rear Admiral Widjojono said. Susaningtyas expert questioned whether the continued short-term deployment of the Nanggala-402 would give the ship enough maintenance time. “The ship has been forced to do this activity in the Bali Sea, very forcefully. Chief of Staff must accept responsibility, “Susaningtyas said. The Nanggala-402 was built in 1977 and completely rebuilt in South Korea in 2012. The Indonesian navy said the ship’s papers were fine. But according to an unnamed defense expert, the submarine may not have been fully maintained since May 2018. The Indonesian naval expert hypothesizes that seawater overflows the ship as it sinks, be it through pipes or torpedoes. Under perfect conditions, the crew may have a way of plugging the gap, but emergencies rarely do so. When a torrent of water flooded in, the pressure could cause the ship to sink immediately. “The ship will sink very quickly, like a rock,” said Soleman Ponta, a military analyst. The Indonesian naval ship participated in the search for the KRI Nanggala-402 submarine. Photo: Reuters. “Pray for me” The day Sergeant Guntur Ari Prasetyo, a diesel technician on the Nanggala-402, left his home in Surabaya, he once told his wife to pray for him. This is what he does every time he is mobilized. Berda Asmara, the wife of sergeant Guntur, followed her husband’s words but this time something was wrong. “Perhaps he had a hunch before he left. He looks different from usual, ”Berda said on April 24. At the same time, in the city of Sidoarjo, an hour’s drive from Sergeant Guntur’s house, Colonel Harry’s family was also praying. Waiting for the good news here is Sheeva Naufal Zidane, the 18-year-old son of Colonel Harry. “From a young age, I wanted to be in the submarine because my dad was cool,” Sheeva said. When the TV reported that the submarine debris was found, everyone in the house got close together. Sheeva applied canola oil to her mother’s legs while the woman cried. The atmosphere rang out prayers. Winny Widayanti, wife of Colonel Harry, said her husband has never lost his temper at work, even in the worst traffic jams. She said she was haunted by debris in the Bali Sea but that would not make her lose faith. “There is still hope. I won’t stop hoping. They will survive. It’s not over yet, ”said Mrs. Winny.

According to the clip ABC News The dance group’s show was attended by high-ranking officials, including Governor-General of Australia David Hurley and Australian Army Commander-in-Chief Angus Campbell, as well as many other MPs and officials.

On the contrary, the Australian Navy insisted that the performance took place before the officials arrived.

Meanwhile, 101 Doll Squadron, the dance group at the event, also accused ABC News modifications to the clip, leading viewers to assume that high-ranking officials are present while they perform.

“ABC I have to answer because it makes us feel threatened and taken advantage of, ”the dance group announced.

The group said that ABC misleadingly cut the clip while filming the dancer at angles that viewers of the performance would not see.

The Australian Navy also shared a video of the official ceremony, which did not include the dance.

After being widely shared on social networks, the clip’s ABC News attracted much criticism from the Australian online community. This scene is compared to the movie The Dictator 2012. The dictator Ali G, the main character of the film, is surrounded by an all-female bodyguard.

Congressman Phillip Thompson, also a veteran, criticized the twerk dance as “unsuitable” for such events. ”

“I think the standard of the Australian military must be higher than that,” he said ABC News.
