Kelp Is On The Way: A Green Business On Russia's White Sea
There's little work to be found in the dying villages of northwest Russia's Solovetsky Islands. But there's a rich crop of kelp just under the surface of the White Sea, and the farmers who harvest it say it's a tough but viable business.

RUSSIA: US DEFENCE SECRETARY COHEN VISIT
Natural Sound
U-S Defence Secretary William Cohen has arrived in Moscow to hold talks with his Russian opposite number Igor Sergeyev.
The visit is designed to put U-S-Russian military relations back on track after Moscow severed most contacts last spring to protest against the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, a Russian ally.
The two defence ministers met in Helsinki in June this year.
After meeting Sergeyev on Monday, Cohen will fly to the Northern Russian town of Severodvinsk where Russia's biggest nuclear submarine shipyard is located.
There at the Zvezda submarine plant Cohen will witness how the Russians are implementing the scrapping of Russian nuclear submarines.
The United States is contributing funds for the programme meant to reduce both nuclear arms tensions and the environmental risks that decommisioned submarines are posing.

RUSSIA READYING KAZAN, MOST POWERFUL ATTACK SUBMARINE: TOP 5 FACTS
INTRODUCTION:
Russia has floated its new state-of-the-art nuclear-powered multipurpose submarine called Kazan, second vessel of Yasen class.
The Russian Navy will take delivery of Kazan in 2018, after sea trials. Once the vessel is operational, she will be the most formidable enemy submarine that the U.S. & NATO has ever faced.
According to one of the U.S. Navy’s top submarine officers, Rear Admiral Dave Johnson.
We’ll be facing tough potential opponents. One only has to look at the Severodvinsk, [first vessel of Yasen class], Russia’s version of a nuclear guided missile submarine (SSGN). I am so impressed with this ship that I had build a model from unclassified da ta so that he could look at it every day on his way to his office”.
It must be noted that Kazan is more advanced that even Severodvinsk, which was referred to by Rear Admiral Dave Johnson.
Let us now go into the details.
DEVELOPMENT
Kazan is the second boat of the Yasen class, separated from the first by 16 years (1993-2009). Considerable changes were made to this from the first vessel Severodvinsk.
The Russian navy declared that the submarine would be improved in comparison to Severodvinsk.
Differences in the project have appeared sufficient to consider it as a new updated version named Yasen-M.
Yasen-M is intended as a substantial improvement, based on the lessons learned from the lengthy development, construction, and testing process for the original Yasen class.
DESIGN:
The Yasen class vessels are a departure from previous Soviet and Russian submarine designs. Unlike older Soviet vessels, submarines of this class are multi-mission boats similar in concept to American vessels like the Seawolf or Virginia classes.
The Yasen-M class vessels are 120 meters long, have a submerged displacement of 13800 tons, and can travel up to 31 knots (57 kph) while submerged. They are also designed to dive to a maximum depth of 600 meters.
Each ship of this class is designed to operate independently for up to 100 days.
ARMAMENT:
The submarine has massive armament capacity and is capable of anti-submarine, anti-ship, and land-attack missions.
Compared to the first vessel of-class, Kazan will reportedly have 2 more VLS silos that are 10, compared to 8 on Severodvinsk, and 2 fewer torpedo tubes 8, compared to 10 on Severodvinsk.
The 10 VLS silos can carry 40 [ 10 x 4 ] Oniks missile, or 50 [ 10 x 5 ] Kalibr anti-ship missile.
Oniks is supersonic anti-ship cruise missile, capable of speed upto Mach 2.5 and has a range of 600 km. This will be used in Anti Ship role.
The Kalibr is equivalent to the American Tomahawk cruise missile in many parameters such as range, warhead and propulsion.
It has a 2500 km range, a 450 kg (1000 pound) high-explosive warhead and a turbofan engine. Similar to Tomahawk, it has a speed of 0.8 mach. This will be used for Land Attacks.
The 8 torpedo tubes of 650mm, can carry 24 [ 8 x 3 ] heavy weight torpedoes. These can be equipped with Type 65 torpedo for Anti Submarine warfare. The torpedo has a range of 50 km at 93 km/h and 100 km at 56 km/h.
CONCLUSION:
Russia plans to build a total of 7 Yasen class submarines. 4 of these Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk, Arkhangelsk and Perm are currently under construction, at the Sevmash shipyards at the White Sea port city of Severodvinsk.
Russia’s growing state-of-the-art submarine fleet is apparently generating anxiety among the US military. In June 2016, Vice Admiral James Foggo 3, commander of the US 6th Fleet, wrote in the June issue of the US Naval Institute’s magazine that, “an effective, skilled, and technologically advanced Russian submarine force is challenging” NATO’s maritime dominance.
Not only is Russia developing more powerful submarines but is also deploying them in more patrols.
Admiral Vladimir Korolyov, the commander-in-chief of the Russian navy, said his submarine crews spent more than 3,000 days under the water last year alone.
He added, Russian subs are patrolling the seas at levels last seen during the Cold War.
Kirov-class battlecruiser
The Kirov-class battlecruiser is a class of nuclear-powered warship of the Russian Navy, the largest and heaviest surface combatant warships (i.e. not an aircraft carrier or amphibious assault ship) currently in active operation in the world. Among modern warships, they are second in size only to large aircraft carriers, and of similar size to a World War I-era battleship. The official designation of the ship-type is heavy nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser (Russian: тяжёлый атомный ракетный крейсер), but because of their size and general appearance, the ships are often referred to as battlecruisers by western defense commentators.
Originally built for the Soviet Navy, the class is named for the first of a series of 4 ships to be constructed, Kirov, which was renamed Admiral Ushakov in 1992. Original plans called for the construction of 5 ships, however the last was cancelled. In Russia this class of ship is usually referred to by the designation Project 1144 Orlan (sea eagle). Only the Pyotr Velikiy is still operational, but Russia plans to reactivate the remaining three vessels by 2020.

India planning joint shipbuilding venture with Russia
India planning joint shipbuilding venture with Russia
A delegation from the Indian Embassy in Russia recently visited the Zvezdochka ship repair centre, where the Sindhukesari submarine is currently undergoing renovations
Headed by Pankaj Saran, the Indian Ambassador to Russia, a delegation from the Indian Embassy in Russia visited the defence shipyards in Severodvinsk. They visited the Sevmash production association, where aircraft carrier Admiral Gorshkov was modernized into the Vikramaditya for the Indian Navy, and also the Zvezdochka Ship Repair Centre, where the Sindhukesari submarine is now undergoing a refit and repairs.
The Severodvinsk shipbuilders gave the delegation a tour on the slip way and assembly workshop, where the actual works were being carried out.
“I will be frank and say that our people have learned a lot from you, and without your help and support we would not be able to reach the level, where we are at now. And that is why we are now considering which way our cooperation will be further developed, which will allow us to move forward another 40 years in terms of maintenance and modernization of submarines,” Ambassador Saran said, speaking of further military-technical co-operation between the two countries.
He said the question of establishment of a joint Russian shipbuilding venture in India is being looked into. It is possible that this will be done within the framework of the Make in India programme, which is now gaining momentum in the country. No time line has been set for the venture.
“For the Government of India and the country itself, one of the main priorities is the development of domestic industry capable of meeting all the needs of the Navy, Army and other military institutions,” Saran said. “That is why today India and Russia want to reach a new level of cooperation – the establishment of joint partner companies, where the two parties have their companies join forces and work on the same project, in order for it to be profitable for the Russian companies too and so that it could work for the benefit of the military and shipbuilding industry in India,” said the Ambassador.
The diesel-electric submarine Sindhukesari is the sixth submarine from the Indian Navy to have undergone warranty repairs in Severodvinsk. A contract for modernization of the sub was signed earlier this year and, in June, to supervise the repairs, a group of Indian naval officers and their families arrived in the northern city.
Eugene Gladyshev, head of the press service of the CA Zvezdochka said the total number of Indians in Severodvinsk, staying for repairs of the Sindhukesari, is 53, including 13 children.
The school children are preparing for 1st September, when they will start studying in regular secondary school classes, said Gladyshev. “The wives of soldiers from India are also gradually learning Russian. Usually submarine repairs last about two years. We have special houses for the Indian families to stay, and there are also several other rooms, where they can find accommodation.”
For 20 years now, Severodvinsk has been receiving Indian guests for quite a long stay. The first Indian Navy submarine came to Severodvinsk shipyard for repairs in the mid-90s. During this time, the company has upgraded and refitted five diesel-electric submarines, with roughly around 600 servicemen and monitoring teams working for them, and newcomers to Severodvinsk.
Once a closed town, the people of Severodvinsk have, over this period, got accustomed to the Indian officers, and have fallen in love with many of the traditions associated with India and Indians. Today, no one city holiday is complete without Indian troops’ performances, while the wives always come for events wearing their festive saris.
To ensure that the Indian sailors have a more comfortable stay with their families in the north, the Severodvinsk authorities and the Indian surveillance team leader have signed an agreement on cultural cooperation.
