Project 30bis 'Skoryy' - Program
Creating destroyers of Pr. 30-bis for the Soviet navy was an extraordinary effort, not previously encountered. Firstly, it involved the construction of the largest in number of units in a series of major surface ships in the history of the Russian Navy and Shipbuilding. A total of 68 units of EM pr. 30bis were built and commissioned in the Navy.
Secondly, in the construction of "tridtsatok bis" (as in common parlance called the Navy, these destroyers), Soviet shipbuilders for the first time established a truly record speed for the creation of the destroyer - already the sixth ship of the series EM, Pr. 30-bis of the duration of construction compared with the main ship has been reduced by 2 times. And the complexity of construction of the last series of ships was reduced by 40%. To build one of these destroyers ( "serious") took a little more than one year. Third, the construction of destroyers, Pr. 30 bis was carried out very rapidly: the whole lot of them, started in 1948, construction was completed in 1953.
Just how successful were the destroyers, Pr. 30 bis, can be judged by the results of their trials. The lead of the ship series - EM "Brave" and another - "Distinct", were tested on the Baltic sea, in the Gulf of Gdansk in Baltiysk area - a naval base of the Baltic fleet. Founded at the factory number 190 of 05/16/48 and Carry Launched 29.09.48g on state tests, this ship was filed by the builder 03/11/49 in general, public and factory testing "Bold" was successful and confirmed the parameters built into its design.
Now how, when, where and how to build the "thirty". Head (and the only unfinished on the initial draft) destroyer, Pr. 30 -. "Firing" was founded in Nikolaev, along with several ships of this project. When leaving the city in connection with the threat of capture by Nazi troops, the EM hull was transferred to one of the rear naval bases in the Black Sea Fleet on the east coast of the Black Sea and later in Batumi this ship was completed. Some inherent to the construction of housing, Pr. destroyers. 30, after the approval of the project to 30 were completed in 1947-1949.
The construction of destroyers, Pr. 30 to carried out on four shipyards of the country - in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) in the plant #190 NCSP (later named Zhdanov, now at "Severnaya Verf"), in Molotovsk (now Severodvinsk) in the plant number 402 (today is called by "Sevmash"), Komsomolsk-on-Amur - plant ?202 (today it is called the Lenin Komsomol) and in Nikolaev at the factory #200, now oN "Shipyard named after 61 Communards" In 1947, the navy received the first two destroyers, Pr. 30 to "impressive" (head, to build a plant number 202) and "diligence" (built in the factory number 402). In 1948 it came into operation already 5 ships of this project: Komsomolsk-on-Amur - "Bossy" and "Hardy"; in Molotovsk - "Okhotny" (later renamed "Stalin"); Leningrad - "Excellent" in Mykolayiv - "Naughty". The last 3 of the ship joined the Navy in 1949 - "Model", "brave" and "gifted" - were built as Leningrad. After passing the "destroyers pr. 30, the first series of" (ie, pr. 30-A), these plants started large-scale construction of welded "tridtsatok bis". Their construction was carried out in the years 1948-1953 .
Several EM modernization projects such as "Bold" were developed since 1957 by CDB designer of the ship. Modernization of destroyers, project 30 bis in order to refit the latter in the ships electronic intelligence. In particular, in that year, after the receipt of the Navy one of these tactical and technical tasks that the project design office 31 was developed. At the same time on the new destroyers - 31 Pr. - were assigned the tasks previously not peculiar to the usual - "classic torpedo-gun ships-destroyers": implementation of the antiboat defense compounds in the sea.
After the completion of the EM pr. 30-bis of the ships passed modernization, during which a number of separate samples of combat and technical equipment was replaced with more modern or it has been completely removed from the ship. The main directions of modernization works to be performed on "thirty-bis", included at that time in the composition of the fleet have been strengthening the electronic weapons, means of combat ships, to solve the problem of air defense and antisubmarine, as well as improving the conditions of habitability personnel destroyers.
