The "Atomflot" fleet has been supplemented by the nuclear icebreaker "Yakutia". This was announced by the Director General of Rosatom, Alexey Likhachev, on the sidelines of the International Arctic Forum.
Today, the "Atomflot" fleet has gained one more icebreaker. On April 1-2, "Yakutia" will depart from St. Petersburg and, during the most challenging ice conditions, will join the ranks to support our projects.
The nuclear icebreaker "Yakutia" is the fourth representative of Project 22220, built by the shipbuilders of the Baltic Shipyard for the Rosatom State Corporation.
Icebreakers of the LK-60Ya type of Project 22220 are a series of Russian universal nuclear icebreakers for operation in the Arctic Ocean. The index LK-60Ya stands for "icebreaker with a nuclear power plant with a capacity of 60 megawatts". The vessels are designed for expeditions in the Arctic and servicing the Northern Sea Route.
Technical characteristics of Project 22220:
Length — 173.3 m, width — 34 m, displacement — 33,540 tons, height of бортом — 15.2 m, draft in linear icebreaker mode — 10.5 m, main power plant — two RITM-200 water-cooled nuclear reactors with a thermal capacity of 175 megawatts each.
Maximum speed - 22 knots (40.7 km/h), icebreaking capability (maximum thickness of solid ice that can be overcome by continuous movement) — 2.9 m, autonomous navigation — 6 months in terms of food supplies, 7 years in terms of fuel resources, crew — 52 people.
