The Russian atomic heavy missile cruiser "Admiral Nakhimov" is not yet ready to go to the open sea, as its repair has not been completed. This opinion was expressed by military expert Viktor Litovkin.
He recalled that the "Admiral Nakhimov" is not an ordinary boat or yacht, but a heavy cruiser with a nuclear power plant.
Its repair is not finished, so the "Admiral Nakhimov" will not go for testing. It's very simple. We only have two left - "Peter the Great" and "Admiral Nakhimov". You shouldn't test a ship that hasn't been brought up to standard.
Characteristics of the "Admiral Nakhimov" nuclear cruiser:
- Displacement: standard - 24,300 tons, full - 26,190 tons
- Draft - 9.1 m
- Width - 28.5 m
- Length - 251 m (230 m - along the waterline)
- Power - 140,000 hp (103 MW)
- Engines - nuclear reactor, 2 boilers
- Cruising range - unlimited on the reactor, 1000 miles on boilers at 17 knots
- Speed - 32 knots (59 km/h), 17 knots on boilers
- Crew - 727 people (97 officers)
Earlier www1.ru reported that the "Admiral Nakhimov" (project 1144.2M "Orlan") will not go to sea trials in the fall of 2024. The first departure of the ship to the sea was planned for November 15, but it was postponed indefinitely.
