Project 11540 TFR is a multi-purpose ship that provides air defense for the operational formation of ships from enemy ships and submarines. A patrol ship of this class was designed and built at the Yantar shipyard in Kaliningrad. The first in the series was the Fearless TFR, which was launched in 1993. The other two were laid down - "Yaroslav the Wise" (in some reports it bears the name "Impregnable") was laid down in 1991 and "Fog" was laid down in the summer of 1993. This ship is a further development of the well-proven Project 1135 patrol ships, 24 of which were built during from 1969 to 1993. Project 11540 TFR is the first Russian universal security ship built using low-reflective materials.
The ship is armed with the Vodopad-NK missile-torpedo system, which fires both anti-submarine missiles and torpedoes. Ammunition - 6 anti-submarine missiles or torpedoes with a range of up to 120 km. Two triple-tube horizontal launchers are installed on each side in the direction of the bow of the ship and a fixed elevation angle of about 20 °.
The complex of anti-ship missiles "Uranus" includes two eight-container launchers with 16 K-35 anti-ship missiles and an automated control system. The K-35 missile is equipped with an inertial control system that provides control of the missile in flight, and an active radar guidance head that provides detection, guidance and destruction of the target. The missile guidance system has a high survivability against enemy electronic countermeasures. To successfully overcome the enemy's anti-missile defense system, the missile has a small reflective surface and a low flight path. In the initial phase, the flight altitude is 10-15 m above sea level, but in the phase of approaching the target, the rocket at a speed of 280-300 meters per second decreases to a height of 3-5 m above sea level. The minimum and maximum flight ranges are from 5 to 130 km. Flight weight - 603 kg.
The Klinok air defense system protects the ship from anti-ship missiles, unmanned and manned aircraft, enemy ships, as well as coastal-based weapons. Four vertical launch modules are installed in the bow of the ship behind the ship's 100 mm gun. The complex consists of an automated fire control system and an under-deck launcher with four drums, each with eight 9M330 missiles (32 missiles). The missile is a naval version of the SA-15 missile.
To obtain data for firing, the complex includes a detection radar and an interface with the ship's combat control system. The radar uses a phased array antenna with electronic control. Range - from 12 to 15 km and target height - from 10 to 6000 meters. The missile is equipped with a 15 kg warhead, can hit 4 targets simultaneously at a speed of up to 700 meters per second and a rate of fire of 3 missiles per second.
Rocket and artillery air defense system "Kashtan" - developed by the Tula Design Bureau. The system provides defense against precision weapons, including anti-ship, anti-radar missiles, aerial bombs, aircraft and small ships. The system has a modular design. One command module and two modules - a combined rocket-artillery mount with an ammunition capacity of 64 rockets and 600 rounds, located on each side of the satellite communications dome. The command module provides fully autonomous target detection, target data output and target distribution to launchers. The combined rocket-artillery mount automatically receives target designation, accompanies the target, calculates the target parameters and uses the weapon. Surface-to-air missiles are launched from a container (launcher), the artillery mount is a twin 30 mm anti-aircraft gun. The system provides radar and laser (for missiles) target tracking modes. Firing range - from 1.5 to 8 km and artillery installation - 0.5-1.5 km for altitudes from 5 to 4000 meters. Target speed up to 600 m/s. The rate of fire of the artillery mount is up to 1000 rounds per minute.
The RBU-6000 anti-submarine rocket launcher is part of the Smerch-2 anti-submarine defense system. The fixed launcher RBU-6000 is installed on the upper deck behind four covers of the Klinok launcher complex. Launcher of twelve radially placed tubes, firing data comes from the Burya fire control system. Ammunition of 96 missiles is located under the launcher. Missiles are loaded automatically through the elevator. When the last tube is loaded, the launcher automatically switches to firing mode. After using all missiles, the launcher automatically returns to the loading position. The maximum firing range is 6000 meters and the maximum target depth is 500 meters. The weight of the rocket is 110 kg and the weight of the warhead is 25 kg.
The AK-100 system with 350 rounds of ammunition is installed in the bow of the ship and is designed to destroy air, sea and coastal targets, including anti-ship missiles. The AK-100-MP-145 artillery mount was developed by the Amethyst Design Bureau in Moscow, the Arsenal Design Bureau and the Industrial Association in St. Petersburg. The system also includes a computer complex with a radar and television detection and tracking channel. The artillery mount is equipped with a "Condenser" optical sight. Fire control can be automatic - from the fire control complex, semi-automatic - from the Condensor optical sight and in manual mode, and the supply of ammunition in manual mode is provided through elevators and automatic feed mechanisms. The artillery installation is serviced by a team of 5 or 6 people. Rate of fire 30 - 50 rounds per minute, range 20 kilometers.
The ship is equipped with eight PK-10 ten-tube launchers to provide protection against heat-seeking weapons. Fires 120mm thermal noise projectiles. Undermining shells can be automatic or single-handedly in manual mode. The ship is also equipped with two 16-pipe PK-16 installations for jamming weapons with radar and optical homing systems. It fires shells of 82 mm caliber single-handedly in manual mode. In automatic mode, it can fire single shots with an interval of 20 to 100 seconds. Firing range from 200 to 1800 meters.
The helipad occupies the entire width of the aft part of the ship. The deck helicopter Ka-27 is located in the hangar. Combat helicopter Ka-27, one of the Kamov family of anti-submarine helicopters, according to NATO classification - "Helix". The helicopter can operate in bad weather and sea conditions up to 5 points and at distances up to 200 km from the ship. The helicopter is equipped with a radar for detecting and tracking surface targets, a sonar system for detecting and tracking underwater targets, and a system for setting acoustic buoys. Weapon systems include anti-submarine torpedoes, anti-submarine missiles, depth charges, and bottom mines.

Project 11540 patrol ships (cipher "Hawk" , according to NATO codification - Neustrashimyy) - a type of patrol ships (according to Western classification - frigates) of the Russian fleet.
Project ships are designed to search, detect and track enemy submarines, provide anti-ship and anti-submarine defense of warships and vessels at sea, strike ships and vessels at sea and bases, support combat operations of ground forces, ensure amphibious landings and resolve other tasks.
In total, two ships of this project out of three laid down on the slipway were completed and entered into the Russian Navy. Both ships for 2012 are part of the Baltic Fleet. The third ship was planned to be completed according to a modified project, but in 2015 they refused to complete it, the unfinished hull will be disposed of.
Story
Design
Patrol ships of project 11540 (code "Hawk") in the final version were to replace the patrol ships of project 1135.
Construction
The lead ship of the project began construction in May 1986 at the Yantar Baltic Shipyard, and was officially laid down on March 25, 1987. It was launched on May 25, 1988. It entered service on December 28, 1990 and on March 14, 1991 became part of the Twice Red Banner Baltic Fleet, and on January 24, 1993, the flag of the Russian Navy was raised over the ship. Since February 2, 1993, the ship has been part of the Baltic Fleet of the Russian Navy. At 1988 prices, Fearless cost the USSR budget 80 million rubles.
The second ship - "Impregnable" (later renamed "Yaroslav the Wise") - was laid down there on May 27, 1988 and launched in June 1990. On June 19 (July) 2009, it became part of the Russian Navy and on July 24, 2009, the Naval flag was raised over the ship Russian Federation.
After the laying of the "Impregnable", on the "Yantar", the construction of the third ship, the "Fog", was also started, but was later stopped. Based on the unfinished Tuman, it is planned to create an anti-submarine ship to fight non-nuclear submarines. The start of completion is scheduled for 2014.
As the head of the shipbuilding department of the Russian Navy, Captain 1st Rank Vladimir Tryapichnikov, told reporters in September 2015: “The command of the Russian Navy will not order the completion of the TFR project 11540 Tuman. Despite the fact that the ship's hull has been on the water for a long time, there is no demand for it. It is not only outdated, but also does not fit into modern tactics and development strategy Navy» .
Service
Since joining the Navy, the ships of the project have repeatedly participated in various exercises, including joint exercises with NATO;
Accompanied the official visits of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin to London and Lisbon, ensuring security on the Russian side;
Made friendly visits to the ports of France, Spain, Belgium and other states;
During the service, the crews of the ships of the project were repeatedly awarded with various prizes in the competitions of the Baltic Fleet and the Russian Navy.
Design
Hull and superstructure
Project watchmen are single-tube, two-masted ships with a developed superstructure, which occupies more than half of the length of the upper deck. The architectural and layout solutions implemented in the ships provide a reduction in the levels of thermal, acoustic, electromagnetic and secondary radar fields.
Power plant
Armament
Artillery
anti-submarine
anti-ship
To destroy surface ships and ships on guard ships, it is planned to place the Uran anti-ship missile system in the central part of the hull, consisting of two four-container launchers located perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the ship with an elevation angle of 35 °. The total ammunition capacity is eight Kh-35 anti-ship missiles.
Despite the fact that the Uranus SCRC was repeatedly mentioned in the media as part of the Neustrashimy armament, since the complex was put into service in 2003, it has not been installed on the ship, which entered service in 1993 (1990). Thus, throughout its existence, the Fearless TFR was not equipped with the main anti-ship weapons.
Anti-aircraft
The means of communication include the R-782 Buran automated communication complex, and the Yaroslav the Wise additionally installed the R-768 Centavr satellite communications complex.
Seaworthiness and habitability
The ships of the project are equipped with stabilizers, as well as bilge keels, which improve seaworthiness.
The autonomy of ships in terms of provisions is estimated at 30 days.

An excerpt characterizing the patrol ships of project 11540
Above the emerald green, very “juicy” earth, illuminating everything around with an unusual bluish light, a stunningly beautiful and bright, violet-blue sun was cheerfully rising ... It was an alien, apparently alien, morning ... of the sun's rays falling on her, sparkled with golden-violet diamonds of the "local" morning dew, and, happily washing herself with them, prepared for the coming new wonderful day ... Everything around was fragrant with incredibly rich colors, too bright for ours, accustomed to everything "earthly" , eye. In the distance, across the sky covered with a golden haze, almost “dense”, soft pink curly clouds swirled, like beautiful pink pillows. Suddenly, from the opposite side, the sky flashed brightly with gold.... I turned around, and froze in surprise - on the other hand, an incredibly huge, golden-pink, second sun rose regally!.. It was much larger than the first, and it seemed to be larger than itself planets... But its rays, unlike the first, for some reason shone incomparably softer and more affectionately, resembling a warm "fluffy" hug... It seemed that this huge kind luminary was already tired of everyday worries, but still, out of habit, gave this incredible beautiful planet its last warmth and, already “going to rest”, gladly gave way to the young, “biting” sun, which had just begun its heavenly journey and shone brightly and cheerfully, not being afraid to splash its young heat, generously flooding everything around with light .Looking around in surprise, I suddenly noticed a bizarre phenomenon - the plants had a second shadow ... And for some reason it contrasted very sharply with the illuminated part - as if the chiaroscuro was painted with bright, flashy colors, sharply opposite to each other. In the shadowy part, the air shimmered with bright miniature stars that flared with the slightest movement. It was crazy beautiful... and extraordinarily interesting. The awakened magical world sounded with thousands of unfamiliar voices, as if joyfully announcing its happy awakening to the entire universe. I felt very strongly, almost in reality, how incredibly clean the air was here! It was fragrant, filled with surprisingly pleasant, unfamiliar smells, which somehow subtly resembled the smell of roses, if there were a thousand of them. different varieties simultaneously. Everywhere, as far as the eye could see, there were the same bright red, huge “poppies” ... And then I just remembered that Veya had brought me the same flower! I extended my hand to her - the flower smoothly flowed from her fragile palm to my palm, and suddenly, something strongly “clicked” in my chest ... I was surprised to see how millions of unprecedented fantastic shades on my chest opened and sparkled amazing crystal... It pulsated and changed all the time, as if showing what else it could be. I froze in shock, completely mesmerized by the spectacle that opened up, and could not take my eyes off the beauty that was opening up in a new way...
“Well,” Veya said contentedly, “now you can watch it whenever you want!”
“Why is this crystal on my chest if you put it on my forehead?” I finally decided to ask a question that had been tormenting me for several days.
The girl was very surprised, and after a little thought, she answered:
"I don't know why you're asking, you know the answer." But, if you want to hear it from me, please: I just gave it to you through your brain, but you need to open it where its real place should be.
– How was I to know? I was surprised.
Violet eyes studied me very carefully for several seconds, and then an unexpected answer sounded:
- I thought so - you are still sleeping ... But I cannot wake you up - others will wake you up. And it won't be now.
- And when? And who will these others be?
– Your friends... But you don't know them now.
“But how will I know that they are friends, and that it is they?” I asked puzzled.
“You will remember,” Veya smiled.
- Do I remember? How can I remember something that is not yet? .. – I stared dumbfounded at her.
“It is, but not here.
She had a very warm smile, which made her unusually beautiful. It seemed as if the May sun peeked out from behind a cloud and lit up everything around.
“Are you all alone here on Earth?” - I couldn't believe it.
- Of course not. We are many, just different. And we've been living here for a very long time, if that's what you want to ask.
– What are you doing here? And why did you come here? I couldn't stop.
We help when needed. I don't remember where they came from, I wasn't there. I just watched how you are now ... This is my house.
The little girl suddenly became very sad. And I wanted to somehow help her, but, to my great regret, while it was still beyond my small powers...
"You really want to go home, don't you?" I asked carefully.
Wei nodded. Suddenly, her fragile figure flashed brightly... and I was left alone - the "star" girl disappeared. It was very, very dishonest!.. She couldn't just pick up and leave!!! This should not have happened!.. A real resentment of a child raged in me, who was suddenly taken away from his most beloved toy... But Veya was not a toy, and, to be honest, I should have been grateful to her already for the fact that she actually came to me. But in my “suffering” soul at that moment a real “emotional storm” crushed the remaining grains of logic, and a complete confusion reigned in my head ... Therefore, about any “logical” thinking in this moment It was out of the question, and I, “heartbroken” by my terrible loss, completely “plunged” into the ocean of “black despair”, thinking that my “star” guest would never return to me again ... I wanted so much more ask her! And she suddenly took it and disappeared ... And then suddenly I felt very ashamed ... If everyone who wanted to ask her as much as I wanted to ask, she, what good, would not have time to live! .. This thought somehow calmed me down. I just had to accept with gratitude all the wonderful things that she managed to show me (even if I still didn’t understand everything), and not grumble at fate for the insufficiency of the desired “ready-made”, instead of simply moving my lazy “convolutions” and find the answers to my own questions. I remembered Stella's grandmother and thought that she was absolutely right when she spoke about the dangers of receiving something for nothing, because nothing can be worse than a person who is used to taking everything all the time. Moreover, no matter how much he takes, he will never get the joy that he himself has achieved something, and he will never experience a feeling of unique satisfaction from having created something himself.
I sat alone for a long time, slowly “chewing” the food for thought given to me, thinking with gratitude about the amazing purple-eyed “star” girl. And she smiled, knowing that now I wouldn’t stop for anything until I found out what kind of friends I don’t know, and what kind of dream they should wake me up from ... Then I couldn’t even imagine that no matter how hard I try, and no matter how hard I try, it will happen only after many, many years, and my “friends” will really wake me up ... Only this will not be at all what I could ever talk about even guess...
But then everything seemed childishly possible to me, and with all my unburned ardor and “iron” perseverance, I decided to try ...
As much as I wanted to listen to the reasonable voice of logic, my naughty brain believed that, despite the fact that Veya apparently knew exactly what she was talking about, I would still achieve my goal and find those people before I was promised (or creatures) that were supposed to help me get rid of some kind of my incomprehensible “bear hibernation”. At first, I decided to try again to go beyond the Earth, and see who would come to me there ... Naturally, it was impossible to think of anything more stupid, but since I stubbornly believed that I would achieve something, I had to do it again plunge into new, perhaps even very dangerous "experiments" ...
For some reason, my kind Stella almost stopped “walking” at that time, and, it is not clear why, she “moped” in her colorful world, not wanting to reveal to me the real reason for her sadness. But I somehow managed to persuade her this time to go “walk” with me, interested in the danger of the adventure I was planning, and also in the fact that I alone was still a little afraid to try such “far-reaching” experiments.
I warned my grandmother that I was going to try something “very serious”, to which she only calmly nodded her head and wished me good luck (!) ... Of course, this angered me to the bone, but deciding not to show her resentment, and pouting like a Christmas turkey, I swore to myself that no matter what it cost me, something would happen today!... And of course, it happened... just not quite what I expected.
Stella was already waiting for me, ready for "the most terrible feats", and we, together and collectively, rushed "beyond" ...
This time it turned out much easier for me, maybe because it was not the first time, or maybe also because the same purple crystal was “discovered” ... I was taken out of the mental level of the Earth like a bullet, and it was then that I realized that I overdid it a little ... Stella, according to the general agreement, was waiting at the “line” to insure me if she saw that something went wrong ... But the “wrong” went already with from the very beginning, and where I was at the moment, she, to my great regret, could no longer reach me.
Around the cold of the night the black, ominous cosmos breathed, about which I had dreamed for so many years, and which now frightened with its wild, unique silence ... I was completely alone, without reliable protection of my "star friends", and without the warm support of my faithful girlfriend Stella... And, despite the fact that I had seen all this not for the first time, I suddenly felt very small and alone in this unfamiliar, surrounding world of distant stars, which here did not look at all as friendly and familiar as from Earth, and little by little a petty, cowardly squeaking from undisguised horror panic began to treacherously cover me ... But since I was still very, very stubborn as a little man, I decided , that there is nothing to become sour, and began to look around, where did it still bring me ...
I hung in a black, almost physically palpable void, and only sometimes some “shooting stars” flickered around, leaving dazzling tails for a moment. And right there, like, very close by, such a dear and familiar Earth flickered with a blue glow. But, to my great regret, it only seemed close, but in fact it was very, very far ... And I suddenly wanted to go back!!! to return home, where everything was so familiar and familiar (to warm grandmother's pies and favorite books!), And not to hang frozen in some kind of black, cold "worldlessness", not knowing how to get out of all this, and, moreover, preferably without any - or "terrifying and irreparable" consequences... I tried to imagine the only thing that first came to mind - the violet-eyed girl Wei. For some reason it did not work - she did not appear. Then I tried to unfold its crystal ... And then, everything around me sparkled, shone and swirled in a frenzied whirlpool of some unprecedented matters, I felt as if I was sharply, like a big vacuum cleaner, drawn somewhere, and right there in front of me “turned around ” in all its glory, the already familiar, mysterious and beautiful world of Weiying .... As I realized too late - the key to which was my open purple crystal ...
I didn't know how far away this unfamiliar world was... Was it real this time? And I didn’t know at all how to return home from it ... And there was no one around whom I could ask at least something ...
In front of me stretched a wondrous emerald valley, bathed in a very bright, golden-violet light. In a strange pinkish sky, sparkling and sparkling, golden clouds slowly floated, almost covering one of the suns. In the distance one could see very high, pointed, shining with heavy gold, alien mountains ... And right at my feet, almost in an earthly way, a small, cheerful stream murmured, only the water in it was not at all earthly - “thick” and purple, and not slightly opaque... I carefully dipped my hand - the sensation was amazing and very unexpected - as if I had touched a soft teddy bear... Warm and pleasant, but by no means "fresh and wet", as we used to feel on Earth. I even doubted whether this was what was called on Earth - “water”? ..
Further on, a “plush” stream ran straight into a green tunnel, which was formed, intertwined, by “fluffy” and transparent, silvery-green “lianas”, hanging in thousands above the purple “water”. They “knitted” a bizarre pattern over it, which was decorated with tiny “stars” of white, strong-smelling, unprecedented flowers.
Yes, this world was extraordinarily beautiful... But at that moment I would have given a lot to be in my own, maybe not so beautiful, but for that, so familiar and dear, earthly world! .. For the first time I was so scared, and I was not afraid to honestly admit it to myself ... I was completely alone, and there was no one to give friendly advice on what to do next. Therefore, having no other choice, and somehow gathering all my "trembling" will into a fist, I decided to move somewhere further, so as not to stand still and not wait for something terrible (although in such beautiful world!) will happen.
– How did you get here? - I heard, in my brain exhausted by fear, a gentle voice.
I turned around abruptly... and once again faced with beautiful purple eyes - Veya was standing behind me...
– Oh, is it really you?!!.. – I almost squealed from unexpected happiness.
“I saw that you unwrapped the crystal, I came to help,” the girl replied calmly.
Only her big eyes again peered very attentively into my frightened face, and deep, “adult” understanding flickered in them.
“You have to trust me,” the “star” girl whispered softly.
And I really wanted to tell her that, of course - I believe! .. And that this is just my bad character, which all my life makes me “beat my head against the wall”, and comprehend the world... But Veya apparently understood everything perfectly, and, smiling with her amazing smile, said affably:
- Do you want me to show you my world, since you are already here? ..
I just happily nodded my head, already fully perked up again and ready for any “exploits”, just because I was no longer alone, and that was enough to instantly forget all the bad things and the world again seemed fascinating and beautiful.
"But you said you've never been here, did you?" I asked boldly.
“But I’m not here right now,” the girl answered calmly. “My essence is with you, but my body never lived there. I never knew my real home... – her huge eyes were filled with deep, not at all childish sadness.
- Can I ask you - how old are you? .. Of course, if you don’t want to, don’t answer, - I asked a little embarrassed.
“By earthly calculation, it will probably be about two million years,” the “baby” answered thoughtfully.
For some reason, my legs suddenly became completely cottony from this answer ... This simply could not be! .. No creature is able to live so long! Or, depending on what kind of creature? ..
"Then why do you look so small?" We only have children like that... But you know that, of course.
- This is how I remember myself. And I feel it's right. So that's how it should be. We live for a very long time. I'm probably the little one...
All this news made me dizzy... But Veya, as usual, was surprisingly calm, and this gave me the strength to ask further.
- And who do you call an adult? .. If there are such, of course.
- Well, of course! The girl laughed sincerely. - Want to see?
I just nodded, because my throat was suddenly completely seized with fright, and my “fluttering” conversational gift was lost somewhere ... I perfectly understood that right now I would see a real “star” creature! .. And, despite the fact that, as far as I could remember, I had been waiting for this all my conscious life, now all of a sudden all my courage for some reason quickly “went to the heels” ...
Veya waved her hand - the terrain has changed. Instead of golden mountains and a stream, we found ourselves in a marvelous, moving, transparent "city" (in any case, it looked like a city). And right towards us, along a wide, wet-glittering silver "road", an amazing man was slowly walking ... He was a tall, proud old man, who could not be called anything else but majestic! sometimes very correct and wise - and pure, like crystal, thoughts (which for some reason I heard very clearly); and long silvery hair covering him with a shimmering cloak; and the same, surprisingly kind, huge violet "Vaina" eyes ... And on his high forehead shone, wonderfully sparkling with gold, a diamond "star".
“Rest to you, Father,” Veya said softly, touching her forehead with her fingers.
“And you, the departed one,” the old man answered sadly.
From him emanated endless kindness and affection. And all of a sudden I really wanted to to a small child, bury in his knees and, hide from everything for at least a few seconds, breathing in the deep peace emanating from him, and not think about the fact that I'm scared ... that I don't know where my house is ... and that I I don’t know at all where I am, and what is really happening to me at the moment ...
– Who are you, creature?.. – I mentally heard his gentle voice.
“I am human,” I replied. “Sorry to disturb your peace. My name is Svetlana.
The elder looked at me warmly and attentively with his wise eyes, and for some reason approval shone in them.
“You wanted to see the Wise One – you see him,” Veya said quietly. - Do you want to ask something?
- Please tell me, does evil exist in your wonderful world? – although ashamed of my question, I still decided to ask.
- What do you call "evil", Human-Svetlana? the sage asked.
- Lies, murder, betrayal ... Don't you have such words? ..
- It was a long time ago ... no one remembers anymore. Only me. But we know what it was. This is embedded in our "ancient memory" to never forget. Have you come from where evil lives?
I nodded sadly. I was very sorry for my native Earth, and for the fact that life on it was so wildly imperfect that it made me ask such questions ... But, at the same time, I really wanted Evil to leave our House forever, because that I loved this house with all my heart, and very often dreamed that someday such a wonderful day would come when:

* - The USA, Italy, Canada presented in Table No. 3 are absent in Table No. 4, since the construction of new frigates in these countries is not yet envisaged in the plans of military shipbuilding. A new type of frigates are being built in Japan, traditionally classified as destroyers, practically no different from ships of the Hatsuyuki-Asagiri type (except that the SAM and PLUR are placed in the VLS) |

Concluding the consideration of anti-aircraft potentials, one should pay attention to the special Tartor D / Standard MR collective (zonal) defense air defense system on the American frigate. On foreign frigates of other types of air defense systems of this class, as a rule, they are not installed, although some single serial frigates - for example, the Dutch type "Jacob van Heemskerk" or the French type "Cassard" - were built in the air defense version with the mentioned American air defense system. The experience of the Falklands conflict showed the insufficient effectiveness of collective defense air defense systems and, conversely, the higher than expected combat capabilities of self-defense air defense systems: the vast majority of Argentine aircraft shot down by anti-aircraft missiles were not on Sea Dart long-range air defense systems (75 km), but on self-defense air defense systems "Seawolf", and the latter quite successfully also solved the tasks of collective defense, that is, it covered not only its own ship, but also its neighbors. For this reason, we believe that the deployment of long-range air defense systems on frigates, naturally entailing a "clamp" of other elements (on the Jacob van Neemskerk, for example, because of this, the main artillery armament had to be abandoned, and on the Cassard - to sacrifice one of the helicopters) is probably not justified. Although such examples also demonstrate that frigates are, in principle, suitable for armament with complexes created for ships of larger classes.
The views that determined the artillery armament of the ICR "Hawk" were discussed above. Here it should only be added that it is easy to install (and this is provided for) a new single-gun 130-mm gun (after it has been put into service) without redesigning the ship design. In this case, in terms of artillery weapons, the Hawk, which today is at the level or higher than that of most foreign analogues, will certainly surpass them in all respects: range, rate of fire, ammunition power, etc.
A comparison of anti-submarine weapons also illustrates the noticeable advantage of our ship even in the torpedo version of loading its universal rocket-torpedo launchers (URTPU). Domestic 533-mm torpedoes - undoubtedly more powerful than the widely used foreign 324-mm ones (Mk.44, Mk.46, Mk.50) - surpass both 550-mm French and 533-mm Italian ones in terms of range, depth of destruction and by speed. An important circumstance is that not only anti-submarine, but also anti-ship torpedoes can be used from the URTPU. Only French and Italian frigates have these capabilities, but their anti-ship torpedoes are also inferior to domestic ones. On the other hand, none of the foreign analogues is equipped with nuclear warheads of torpedoes. The unique possibility of using nuclear weapons puts the "Hawk" in an exceptional position and once again confirms the thesis about its suitability for any model of war - including nuclear, the possibility of which (not to be confused with the concept of "probability"), alas, remains, and no one can cancel she can't yet.
In the rocket-torpedo version of charging the URTPU with Vodopad-NK anti-submarine missiles, our TFR, of course, becomes even more powerful. None of the foreign ships, except for the Japanese Hatsuyuki, has weapons of this class. The American ASROC complex installed on the "Japanese" only loses several times in range to the "Waterfall", not to mention the comparison of the performance characteristics of the torpedoes used in combat units: they are incomparably higher for our 400-mm torpedo than for the 324-mm American Japanese. The impressiveness of the anti-submarine weapons of the Yastreb SKR is enhanced by the presence of the RBU, which is absent on other compared ships, decisive task defense of the ship in dead zones and active protection against torpedoes.
The aircraft armament of our ship - the Ka-27 or Ka-29 helicopter - in terms of its flight tactical characteristics (LTX) and onboard weapons is comparable only to the American SH-60 "Sea Hawk", since the good, but light machines "Lynx" or AB- 212 are in a different class and comparing them with heavy helicopters is not correct. Therefore, surpassing all foreign analogues in aviation armament, the Hawk is second only to the American frigate Oliver H.Perry - if only because the American has two of them against one of ours. However, our helicopter is seriously superior to that based on the Canadian and Japanese ships licensed American "Sea King".
The above qualitative – heuristic, at first glance – comparison is based on quantitative calculations repeatedly performed by our specialists. Behind the concepts of "worse" and "better" are specific digital data based on appropriate models and techniques. It is curious that in the galaxy of presented analogues, in our opinion, the American frigate Oliver H. Perry looks the most “pale”. It is surprising that the Americans managed to “push” this project to the gullible Australians and Spaniards. In fairness, it should be noted that the frigates of the new generation of the navies of these countries have already been ordered in Germany. MEKO-type frigates apparently have highest rating abroad, although the Germans do not build them for their Navy.
We compared the Russian TFR project 11540 with foreign analogues - "peers" (it does not matter that the years of their construction for various reasons did not coincide). Let us now venture once again to briefly compare the elements of the Hawk with elements of the latest frigates of the foreign Navy, the design of which began much later than the creation of our ship.
An analysis of the last table shows that the new generation frigates do not differ significantly from their predecessors in terms of quality. There is a noticeable tendency to contain or reduce displacement. The standard type of power plant is becoming a diesel-gas turbine plant, which in some cases allows you to increase the cruising range. Of particular interest is the diesel-gas-turboelectric power plant of the English frigate "type 23", which makes it possible to drastically improve this element. The number of crews is slightly reduced.
Weapons (not weapons, but weapons) almost do not change. There is only an increase in the main caliber of the AU and an almost massive transition to fixed vertical launch launchers for missiles, which was carried out in our fleet almost 20 years ago.
Along with this, of course, there are changes in architecture, especially related to STEALTH technology (the most typical examples are Norfolk and La Fayette). Surface structural protection is being introduced more and more widely, mainly with the use of armored plastics such as Kevlar. Electronic weapons are being improved, especially hydroacoustic ones: infrasonic noise direction-finding sonar systems with flexible towed extended antennas (cable type) are widely used on ships. It should be noted that in the TFR project 11540 it was planned to place a similar GAS of the Centaur SK type, but the development of the latter was stalled by the collapse of the military-industrial complex that began during the "acceleration" period, and the ship had to be armed with a conventional towed station, which is part of the Zvezda-M1 complex.
Against this background, the TFR "Hawk" retains almost all of its advantages and advantages, even without the re-equipment indicated in the table (RCC "Onyx", 130-mm AU). The only, perhaps, "annoying" element is the cruising range - in modern comparison, it is already significantly smaller. Here one cannot fail to recall the requirements of the specialists of the Central Research Institute of VK, who were able to look 20 years ahead.
We don’t know how successful this was, but we tried to prove to the reader that the main character of this story is a Hawk-class patrol ship. project 11540, - created by the labor and efforts of domestic scientists, designers, engineers, workers, military sailors, has every reason to become not an ordinary ship of the Russian fleet of the XXI century. In any case, we believe in it.
From the editors of Courage. Since the article was written back in 1996, I would like to supplement it with the following information. The construction of patrol ships pr.11540 was organized at the Yantar shipyard in Kaliningrad. Three buildings were laid: in March 1987 "Undaunted" , in May 1988 - "Impregnable" and in March 1990 - "Fog" . By that time, the “parade of sovereignties” had already begun, and in 1991 the USSR collapsed, the established ties in the defense industry were disrupted, and an economic crisis was brewing. The first ship was nevertheless handed over to the fleet in 1993. But the construction of the other two had to be suspended with technical readiness of 78% and 28%, respectively. The hulls of the ships were mothballed and laid up at the factory wall. Despite attempts to complete one of the ships under the export project 11541 Corsair, potential customers did not show interest in it, and therefore the matter was limited only to the project and some progress in construction. Only after a few years, in 2003, it was decided to complete the construction of the second building according to the corrected technical project for Russian fleet. However, due to the low level of funding, the ship, which received a new name - Yaroslav the Wise, was commissioned only in May 2009. The order for the third hull was apparently cancelled.
The patrol ship "Yaroslav the Wise" due to the adjustment of the project differs from the head project 11540 in the presence of some systems. First of all, he received the Uran anti-ship complex (this SCRC was never installed on the Neustrashimy) controlled by the Dubrava radar, more advanced communications, and the GLONASS space navigation system. It carried out a number of activities aimed at further reducing the levels of underwater noise, secondary radar, thermal and electromagnetic fields, and improved the gas exhaust system. The control radar of the Kortik complex was installed on a higher pedestal to improve the field of view.

Project ships are designed to search, detect and track enemy submarines, provide anti-ship and anti-submarine defense of warships and vessels at sea, strike ships and vessels at sea and bases, support combat operations of ground forces, ensure amphibious landings and resolve other tasks.
In total, two ships of this project out of three laid down on the slipway were completed and entered into the Russian Navy. Both ships for 2018 are part of the Baltic Fleet. The third ship was planned to be completed according to a modified project, but in 2015 they refused to complete it, the unfinished hull will be disposed of.
Story
Design
Hull and superstructure
Project watchmen are single-tube, two-masted ships with a developed superstructure, which occupies more than half of the length of the upper deck. The architectural and layout solutions implemented in the ships provide a reduction in the levels of thermal, acoustic, electromagnetic and secondary radar fields.

anti-submarine
anti-ship
To destroy surface ships and ships on guard ships, it is planned to place the Uran anti-ship missile system in the central part of the hull, consisting of two four-container launchers located perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the ship with an elevation angle of 35 °. The total ammunition capacity is eight Kh-35 anti-ship missiles.
Despite the fact that the Uranus SCRC was repeatedly mentioned in the media as part of the Neustrashimy armament, since the complex was put into service in 2003, it has not been installed on the ship, which entered service in 1993 (1990). Thus, throughout its existence, the Fearless TFR was not equipped with the main anti-ship weapons.
Anti-aircraft
The means of communication include the R-782 Buran automated communication complex, and the Yaroslav the Wise additionally installed the R-768 Centavr satellite communications complex.
Seaworthiness and habitability
The ships of the project are equipped with stabilizers, as well as bilge keels, which improve seaworthiness.
The second ship - "Impregnable" (later renamed "Yaroslav the Wise") - was laid down there on May 27, 1988 and launched in June 1990. On June 19 (July) 2009, it became part of the Russian Navy and on July 24, 2009, the Naval flag of the Russian Federation was raised over the ship.
After the laying of the "Impregnable", on the "Yantar", the construction of the third ship, the "Fog", was also started, but was later stopped. Based on the unfinished Tuman, it was planned to create an anti-submarine ship to fight non-nuclear submarines. Construction was scheduled to begin in 2014. As the head of the shipbuilding department of the Russian Navy, Captain 1st Rank Vladimir Tryapichnikov, told reporters in September 2015: “The command of the Russian Navy will not order the completion of the TFR project 11540 Fog. Despite the fact that the ship's hull has been on the water for a long time, there is no demand for it. It is not only outdated, but also does not fit into the modern tactics and development strategy of the Navy.
Service
Since joining the Navy, the ships of the project have repeatedly participated in various exercises, including joint exercises with NATO;
Accompanied the official visits of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin to London and Lisbon, ensuring security on the Russian side;
Made friendly visits to the ports of France, Spain, Belgium and other states;
During the service, the crews of the ships of the project were repeatedly awarded with various prizes in the competitions of the Baltic Fleet and the Russian Navy.
In September 2006, the Fearless TFR took part in the event for the reburial of Empress Maria Feodorovna (the watchman met and accompanied the Danish KVMS ship Esbern Snare with the ashes of the Empress).
In July 2010, it was reported that the ships of the project in 2011, after agreeing on this issue with Ukraine, will be relocated to the Black Sea Fleet and will be oriented by the Black Sea Fleet command to maintain the operational regime in the fleet's area of responsibility - the Black and Mediterranean Seas. However, the transition did not take place, although both patrol boats frequently appear in the Mediterranean and off the Horn of Africa.
From December 7, 2011 to February 10, 2012, he participated in a joint campaign of the inter-naval joint group in the Mediterranean Sea, led by the Admiral Kuznetsov TAVKR.
