The Chief Command of the Russian Navy decided to build a sonar patrol submarine. The new submarine will get systems that will allow detecting submarines and surface ships as well as low-flying targets at a distance up to 600 km in the passive mode. At a distance up to 100 km a ship will be able to determine the type of targets, as reports i-mash. Subsurface analogue of the airborne warning and control system (AWACS) is officially called "sonar patrol and situational awareness submarine". Unlike the aircraft, it operates in the passive mode, i.e. only considers hydrologic situation, without transmitting active signals and remaining invisible to the enemy.
Gorky Zelenodolsk Plant delivered the Almetyevsk lead ship (type RST25). Customer of two river-sea tankers is Nafta-Invest Company. Financing is carried out by Ak Bars Leasing. The designer is the Marine Engineering Bureau. The ship is of Russian River Registry class M-SP 4.5 (ice 40) A ECOZ, which means "combined river-sea going, capable of moving in ice 40 cm thick and at wave height 4.5 m").

The Tender Commission of the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade defined the winner in the tender for creating a prototype of auxiliary power plant based on fuel-cell batteries with proton-exchange membrane for vessels of high environmental requirements. The winner is the SET Research Institute (Research Institute for Ship Electric Engineering and Technology) in Krylov State Research Centre. They will create a prototype of auxiliary power plant with capacity of
10 kW. The plant will be based on fuel-cell batteries with proton-exchange membrane and will be designed for vessels of high environmental requirements and oil and gas facilities.
Tomorrow Okskaya Sudoverf will launch the eighth serial tanker of type RST27, Volgo-Don Max class V.F. Tanker-18 built for V.F. Tanker shipping company. Type RST27 ships are designed for dimensions of Volgo-Don Canal and Volgo-Baltic Waterway.
LOA: 140.85 m
Beam: 16.6 m
Depth: 6.0 m
Volgo-Don Max class The ships are designed considering special requirements of Russian and world oil companies, additional environmental restrictions of the Russian Maritime Register of Shipping ECO PROJECT (ECO-S).
A new scientific expedition ship of Roshydromet, the Academik Treshnikov, according to preliminary data, successfully passed the ice trials near Antarctica. The actual specifications comply with the design ones. During the first voyage to Antarctica, the ship passed through the 1.2 m ice and withstood the storm. On 12 April, the vessel will arrive in St. Petersburg. After that, a special commission will announce the trials results.
The Stapel Central Design Bureau developed and delivered to the Customer the modernisation design for dry-cargo tanker of type 414B with inner bottom, sides and trunk deck (for preserving the tonnage as much as possible) in the cargo area. The vessel is designed for shipping oil products with flash-point t < 60°С when used as a tanker and dry cargoes with overall height of max. 3.0 m when used as a dry-cargo carrier. The vessel is modernised for increasing environmental safety when using it the vessel as intended as well as for complying with rules of the Russian River Registry and preserving the tonnage as much as possible.
Нas started to prepare the lists of the shipyard specialists and contractors that will accompany the Indian crew on board the Vikramaditya aircraft carrier, which is to sail to India. The crew will be max. 250 in number. It will include workers of Sevmash, SPO Arktika and a number of contracting companies.
The last of the three frigates of type 11356-F50, the Trikand, ordered by India and built in Kailingrad by Yantar Shipyard is to be subject to acceptance trials on 2 May 2013, as reports Flot.com. Now, the Indian crew completes theoretical practice to arrive in Kaliningrad next week.
The Russian-Indian BrahMos joint venture will offer the Amur 950 submarine for the international tender to be one of possible platforms for installing the BrahMos missile, as reported the director general of the Rubin Central Design Bureau for Marine Engineering Igor Vilnit on 29 March. "I think that a joint missile is one of the main advances in the future contest", noted Vilnit. According to him, the BrahMos is a joint Russian-Indian design, and the missile is to be used on the joint platform. One of such carriers of the missile, which was launched from underwater platform, can be the Amur 950 Russian submarine.
