Since 2013, Russia will begin the programme of developing the civil shipbuilding, which will require investments of more than 600 billion roubles till 2030. The state budget will assign 337.9 billion roubles, of which 51.8 billion roubles are supposed to spend in 2013 to 2015.
Yantar Shipyard, Kaliningrad completes the harbour acceptance trials of the third frigate (Type 1135.6) constructed for the Indian Navy, and starts preparation for sea acceptance trials, reports the Military Industrial Complex. After a while, when degaussing is finished, the shipyard will officially start sea acceptance trials. However, preparatory operations are being made as early as today.

Rosatom State Corporation placed two tenders for concluding a contract on construction of the first and second serial multipurpose nuclear icebreakers (Type 22220). Initial prices of contracts amount to 42 billion 2 million 810 thousand roubles and 44 billion 102 million 620 thousand roubles, respectively. The first icebreaker should be placed to the berth of Atomflot State Corporation until 15 June 2019, and the second up to 20 December 2020. According to its specifications, the multipurpose nuclear icebreaker will be able to effectively operate in the mouths of the Siberian rivers and along the Northern Sea Route. In addition, the nuclear ship will be the largest and powerful in the world, and thanks to its increased width (34 m instead of 30 of Arktika nuclear ships), the multipurpose nuclear icebreaker will be able to conduct tankers with displacement of up to 70 thousand tons in Arctic. The icebreaker will be able to deal with ice of up to 3 m.
STX Offshore & Shipbuilding Co. Ltd launched the ultramodern LNG gas carrier Veliky Novgorod ordered by the Sovcomflot under the long-term agreement with Gazprom Global LNG. The Veliky Novgorod is the first of two ships constructed by STX Offshore & Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. It will have been constructed by December 2013.

Navis company and Pella Leningrad Shipyard signed a contract for equipping the fishing long-liner ships with Jastram steering gears. The steering gears will be integrated with the latest control systems by the steering hydraulic drive STCS4000 and autopilots AP4000 by Navis. In particular, the STCS4000 system will control the rudder in the tracking mode from any of the three command posts. The steering hydraulic drive ensuring a continuous operation of the ship at the water temperature from 0°C up to 23°C and air temperature from minus 25°C to 34°С will reach a speed of the rudder deflection from 45 degrees of one board to 45 degrees of the other board in 28 seconds.
The third serial Yasen-M multi-purpose nuclear submarine cruiser will be constructed in Severodvinsk in the summer of 2013. The multipurpose nuclear submarine of the fourth generation (Type 885М) will be laid in the 55-th shop of the Northern Machine-Building Enterprise (Sevmash). As expected, according to performances and combat effectiveness, the submarine may be compared with the high-technology and expensive American multi-purpose nuclear submarine (Seawolf), and according to one of the main parameters, noise level, even outperforms the foreigner. The boat is planned to be handed over in 2015.
