The world’s largest icebreaker “Arktika” was launched on May 2016 – commander

Date probabilistic run chosen by chance, because it is the end of this spring “Baltic Shipyard – Shipbuilding” was officially opened.

The ship was named “Arctic”, his descent, the company will celebrate its 160th anniversary. Icebreakers designed a new type of “CDB” Iceberg “.” The ship “Arctic” is the head, he was laid in the year before. All serial nuclear submarines will be put up in 2020.

According to Tass, the press service of the Baltic plant, the forthcoming launching of the icebreaker “Arktika” Project 22220 will mark the 160th anniversary of the shipyard. After that, the icebreaker will finish building at the quay wall and ready for testing.

«Arctic” will be the lead ship in the series of ice-breakers fundamentally new class that will provide Russian year-round navigation in the Arctic seas.

« Already laid the second icebreaker, the third, then we have it on the schedule 2017 th, 2019 th, 2020 th years, there is a consistent delivery of icebreakers new class, and Peter has designed and prepared the basic design of the new generation nuclear icebreaker “Leader” with even more power with even more opportunities to provide year-round navigation by large tankers and large gas carriers, “- said December 2, 2015 the head of the state corporation” Rosatom “Sergey Kiriyenko.

The first serial icebreaker project 22,220 laid in May 2015 and given the name “Siberia”, is another such vessel by the name of “Ural” will be laid in September 2016.

Head-purpose nuclear-powered icebreaker “Arktika”, will be equipped with a nuclear power plant of a new type and will largest and most powerful icebreaker in the world. Its length is 173.3 meters, width – 34 meters, draft of 10.5 meters designed waterline, minimum working draft – 8,55 meters, displacement – 33.54 thousand tons.

According to TASS These nuclear submarines will be able to overcome the almost three-meter ice and carry ships with cargo capacity of up to 100 thousand tons. They will serve the Northern Sea Route and exercise of ships transporting hydrocarbon raw materials from the fields of Yamal and Gydan peninsulas, the shelf of the Kara Sea to the Atlantic and the Pacific.

The so-called icebreaker leader was talking about the head of “Rosatom “- this is an icebreaker capacity of 120 megawatts, its width is approximately 50 meters, length – 200 meters. His project is being developed in CDB “Iceberg».

Representatives of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise “Rosatomflot” stated that now there is work to prevent “break the ice”. It is expected that during the commissioning of new icebreakers, the old, that is, “Yamal”, “Taimyr” and “Vaigach” will be phased out.

The newest nuclear-powered ships will be able to overcome the almost three-meter ice and carry ships carrying up to 100 thousand tons. Purpose vessels – Service of Northern Sea Route and driving ships carrying hydrocarbon feedstock with the Yamal and Gydan peninsulas, the Kara Sea shelf to the markets of the Atlantic and the Pacific.

Court has double-draft design, which will allow them to go, not only in Arctic waters, but in the mouths of the rivers polar. They have the following specifications: length 173.3 meters, width 34 meters, draft of the design waterline – 10,5 meters, the minimum working draft – 8,55 meters. Displacement – 33.54 thousand tons. Power icebreaker – 60 MW.
Icebreakers get two-reactor power plant. The main source of the pair will be the installation of a new generation of “RITM-200″ capacity of 175 MW. Settings “RITM-200″ developed in OKB Afrikantov specifically for these icebreakers. The cost of one unit – 8 billion rubles. On the “Arctic” installation will be installed in 2016.

Recall that the “Baltic Plant” is part of “United Shipbuilding Corporation” Russian. He built all Soviet and Russian nuclear icebreakers, except for the famous icebreaker “Lenin”. Built on its atomic icebreaker “50 Years of Victory” is so far the largest icebreaker in the world.

Over the 160 years of its existence, the St. Petersburg plant has also about 600 warships, submarines and civilian ships.
