Riga class Frigates (1952)

In four years, the Nikolayev, Komsomol and Kaliningrad shipyards delivered 68 frigates of this type. Unlike the later units of the Petya and Mirka classes, the Riga class were not specialized ASW units, but small, multi-purpose ships derived from the Kola, themselves inspired by the last German WWII torpedo-boats.

These transitional shuips still had a conventional armament with three dual-purpose guns and twin 37mm AA mounts plus a single 21-in (533mm) quintuple TT bank and tw ASW MBU-200 rocket launchers, and at the stern two grenade racks for 12 depth charges and four launchers (12 in reserve). Overall, a soviet reboot of the WW2 US destroyer escorts, with more modern electronics. Unlike the Kola class which was basically a WW2 program completed just after the war, the Riga class were much simpler, more compact and more modern, designed for mass production: With sixty-eight delivered in all, this was probably the largest large ASW program anywhere in the cold war. They served also in the Bulgarian, East German, Finnish and Indonesian navies and copied by the Chinese as the Jiangnan class (Type 065) frigates. Obsolete in 1965, the Riga were were gradually phased out and replaced by the Petya class until the late 1970s and all decommissioned in the 1980s.

Development of the Riga class

Project 50 was defined in 1950, on specific Stalin’s injunction for mass production of a very simplified Kola. After the release of the first patrol ship of Project 42, the Council of Ministers of the USSR ordered the Ministry of the Shipbuilding Industry and the Naval Ministry to take control of the development of the Project 50 patrol ship and the construction of a lead ship with a displacement of 1200 tons according to these drawings, and the following deadlines were set for the work:

Complete the development of the draft design in September and submit it to the USSR Council of Ministers in October 1950;
Complete the development of the technical design in February and submit it to the USSR Council of Ministers in March 1951;
Start construction of the lead ship in the II quarter of 1951 and submit it for state tests in the III quarter of 1952.

Despite all the positive results obtained during the tests, the first post-war domestic TFR pr. 42 was built in a limited series, and on the personal instructions of I.V. Stalin, the development of a TTZ for a new patrol ship with a total displacement of 1,200 tons of project 50 began.

The Council of Ministers of the USSR ordered the Ministry of the Shipbuilding Industry and the Naval Ministry to develop a draft 50 new TFR and build a lead ship on this in the following terms:
a) complete the development of the draft design in September and submit it to the Council of Ministers of the USSR in October 1950;
b) complete the development of the technical design in February and submit it to the Council of Ministers of the USSR in March 1951;
c) start building the lead ship in the second quarter of 1951 and submit it for state tests in the third quarter of 1952.

All work was entrusted to TsKB-820. In July-August 1950, various technical issues were negotiated, which would make it possible to ensure the receipt of a given displacement and the necessary qualities of the ship. However, in the given dimensions, it was not possible to fully meet the requirements for wind resistance. Studies have shown that with the linear placement of the power plant, it is possible to provide a displacement at a given level. In the course of the study, a combined scheme of two machine-boiler plants was considered. For her, SKBK created boilers with blowing into furnaces of the KVG-57/28 type. The boilers were with natural circulation, vertical, with a developed radiation surface, one-way duct of flue gases, and two-front heating. The temperature of the superheated steam was assumed to be moderate (370 ° С), and the working pressure was up to 28 kg / cm 2. The new constructive scheme of the ship’s boiler was the basis for the creation of high-powered small-sized boilers for all classes of post-war surface warships. The most important task of the subsequent high forcing of the furnace with an increase in its heat load three times was solved. After numerous disputes, the linear arrangement of the power plant was adopted.

Variants with weapons that were very different from Project 42 were also considered. So it was supposed to replace the two bow mounts B-34USM with one twin mount of a closed type with the same 100-mm guns as in the B-34USM. The development of such an installation was then carried out at OKB-172. Attempts were also made to replace the MBU-200 with the MBU-600 and 37-mm assault rifles with 25-mm. Nevertheless, the final composition of the ship’s armament differed from Project 42 only by a decrease in the number of B-34USM installations from 4 to 3, the number of torpedo tubes from 3 to 2, and a decrease in artillery ammunition by 15%.

The preliminary design was completed by the Leningrad branch of TsKB-820 on time. In the course of its consideration, the Acting Minister of the Navy, Admiral A.G. Golovko, approved a proposal to replace 4 BMB-1s with 4 BMB-2s. The standard displacement obtained in the draft design was 1,059 tons. In the technical design, the value of the standard displacement increased to 1,068 tons. In the process of considering the technical design presented by the kit and on time, it turned out that it was impossible to store and use the equipped ammunition on the ship. TGA in strict accordance with the current instructions. Due to the additional volumes received on the ship, even with the existing standard displacement, it became possible to take almost twice as much fuel (with the highest displacement) and bring the cruising range to almost 2000 miles. The presence of only a two-tube torpedo tube instead of the traditional three-tube torpedo was constantly criticized. Finally, when approving the technical design, it was decided to oblige the SKB-700 MSP, by order of the MTU Navy, to develop in 1951 a technical design of a three-tube torpedo launcher for the ships of Project 50. Later, these devices were developed and installed on the ships of this project.
The chief designer of the SKR pr.50 was first D.D. Zhukovsky, then V.I. Neganov, and at the final stage from the end of 1953, B.I.Kupensky became, and Captain 1st Rank V.S. Avdeev was the observer from the Navy.

The ship of project 50, like the SKR of project 42, was smooth-deck with longitudinal sheer, one-tube, with one mast and two superstructures. The nasal formations of PM in comparison with the TFR pr. 42 were significantly sharpened, which, according to experts, should have significantly reduced spray formation. This PM was used by the last chief designer in his further projects. All combat posts and rooms, with the exception of the bomb cellar N6, the midshipman’s compartment and the tiller compartment, were provided with a closed passage, which was unusual for such a small ship. The power plant compartments, the wheelhouse and the shields of the artillery mounts were booked with anti-fragmentation armor 7-8 mm thick. The whole hull is electrically welded, except for the connection of the upper deck with the side and removable sheets. According to the test results, both the overall and local strength were found to be satisfactory. The vibration of the stern end at all moves was less than that of the EM pr.30-bis and corresponded to the time norms.

On sea trials, the ship with a normal displacement of 1134 tons developed an average speed of 29.5 knots at 386 rpm of propellers. Despite the decrease in the number of revolutions in comparison with the project 42, it was not possible to get rid of erosion on the suction sides of the blades at the propeller hub. The ship, like its predecessor, had two rudders, but the propellers, due to the larger diameter (reduced speed), now protruded beyond the main line. This circumstance worsened the conditions for the passage of the ship along inland waterways and made sailing on the shallows and in river estuaries more dangerous. As a result of the seaworthy tests carried out in a sea state of 4.5 and 6 points, it was found that with 4 points of excitement, the speed of the ship and the use of any combat and technical means were not limited. With greater excitement, the speed was reduced to 23 knots (6 points). With a sea state of 6, the main artillery can only be used at speeds up to 16 knots, the use of torpedo, anti-submarine and mine weapons is impossible.

The general assessment of the ship’s maneuverability and seaworthiness was found to be satisfactory. The seaworthiness of the ship in the use of weapons was estimated at 4 points, although in waves up to 6 points, it is possible to use artillery weapons.

The turbo-gear unit of the TV-9 spacecraft was a single-hull active-reactive single-flow turbine with a capacity of 10,000 hp, a single-flow surface condenser located along the axis with a bifurcation of power. TV-9 could be started up from a cold state. During the period of state tests of serial ships, breakdowns of the working blades began to be detected. A special commission chaired by Professor M.I. Grinberg found out that the indicated breakdowns were due to resonant vibrations at full speed (forward and backward). The manufacturer and its SKBT accepted the stresses that were increased against those previously accepted in the marine turbine construction, and did not provide constructively and technologically high-quality manufacturing. In April and September 1954, resolutions of the Council of Ministers of the USSR were adopted, in pursuance of which the defects of the TV-9 turbines were corrected. In this regard, a temporary limitation was introduced to the maximum travel speed, limited to 25 knots. The restrictions were lifted in 1955. However, in the future there were malfunctions with these turbines.

Three 100-mm B-34USMA-type guns were installed on the ship. Guidance of gun mounts was carried out automatically using a remote control and manually. It was the first domestic universal gun mount with automatic remote guidance from a rangefinder post (PUS “Sfera-50”). There were no serious complaints about the AU, however, like on Project 42, the guide tray sagged during operation, and the sleeve reflector did not always ensure free falling of the sleeves. To control the firing of 100-mm artillery, a stabilized sighting post SVP-42-50 was installed, combined with the antenna of the Yakor radar. The range of its action on a sea target is 180 cab, and on an air target up to 165 cab. The twin-tube torpedo launcher installed on the ship was intended for firing only straight forward steam-gas torpedoes of the 53-38, 53-39, 53-ZEU, 53-51 types. New in the radio-technical armament of the ship in comparison with the TFR pr. 42 was the adoption of a Lin-type radar as a surface target detection radar, which could detect low-flying aircraft and the Pegas-2 hydroacoustic station. At a speed of the SKR of about 20 knots, this GAS was able to detect submarines at periscope depth at a distance of 14 cabs, and an anchor mine – 7 cabs (according to technical conditions, only 3 cabs were specified).

In short

All work was entrusted to TsKB-820. In July-August 1950, various technical issues were negotiated, which would make it possible to ensure the fulfillment of the TTZ, but it was not possible to fully fulfill the requirements for wind resistance in the given dimensions.

Studies of engines have shown that with a linear arrangement of the power plant, it is possible to provide a displacement at a given level, and a combined scheme of two machine-boiler plants was considered. For this, SKBK created boilers with blowing into furnaces of the KVG-57/28 type with natural circulation, of a vertical shape, with a developed radiation surface, a one-way duct of flue gases and two-front heating. The superheated steam temperature reached 370 ° С, which was considered a moderate temperature, and the working pressure reached 28 kg / cm². The new structural scheme of the ship’s boiler was the basis for the creation of highly boosted small-sized boilers for all classes of post-war surface warships, thereby solving the most important task of the subsequent high forcing of the furnace with an increase in its thermal load three times. After numerous disputes, the linear arrangement of the power plant was adopted.

Options were considered with weapons that were very different from Project 42: it was supposed to replace two B-34USM bow mounts with one closed-type twin mount with the same guns (its development was carried out in OKB-172). Attempts were also made to replace the MBU-200 with the MBU-600, and the 37-mm assault rifles with the 25-mm. However, everything was limited to a decrease in the number of B-34USM installations from four to three, the number of torpedo tubes from three to two, and a 15% decrease in artillery ammunition.

The preliminary design was completed by the Leningrad branch of TsKB-820 on time. In the course of its consideration, the Acting Minister of the Navy, Admiral A.G. Golovko, approved a proposal to replace the BMB-1 class bombers with the BMB-2 class. The standard displacement obtained in the draft design was 1059 tons, in the technical design it increased by another 9 tons. Due to the additional volumes received on the ship, it became possible to take almost twice as much fuel (with the highest displacement) and bring the cruising range to almost 2000 miles …

However, in the further process of consideration, it turned out that it was impossible on the ship to ensure the storage and use of the ammunition equipped with the TGA in strict accordance with the current instructions. Also, the presence of only a two-tube torpedo tube instead of the traditional three-tube torpedo was constantly criticized. Finally, when approving the technical project, it was decided to oblige the SKB-700 to rework the project commissioned by the MTU of the Naval Forces, having worked out the option of installing a three-tube torpedo tube, which was successfully completed.

The chief designer was at first D. D. Zhukovsky, then V. I. Neganov received this position, and at the final stage, from the end of 1953, B. I. Kupensky became. The observer from the Navy was Captain 1st Rank V.S.Avdeev.

Detailed design

Smaller dimensions had engineers completely rethink propulsion, with a compact turbines fed by boilers overpressured boilers in the very same compartments.
The ship was smooth-decked with longitudinal sheer, single-tube, with one mast and two superstructures. The nasal formations in the theoretical drawing were significantly sharpened compared to project 42, which should have significantly reduced splashing (this drawing was used by the last chief designer in his further projects). A closed passage was provided for all combat posts and rooms, with the exception of the bomb cellar No. 6, the midshipman’s compartment and the tiller compartment, which was unusual for a small ship. The compartments of the main power plant, the wheelhouse and the shields of the artillery mounts were booked with anti-fragmentation armor 7-8 mm thick. The entire hull was electrically welded, except for the connection of the upper deck with the side and removable sheets. Overall and local strength were found to be satisfactory in the tests. The vibration of the aft end on all moves was less than that of destroyers 30-bis and corresponded to the temporary norms.

Propulsion

On sea trials, the ship at normal displacement developed an average speed of 29.5 knots at 386 rpm, which was less than that of Project 42. However, even this did not help to get rid of erosion on the suction sides of the blades at the propeller hub. The ship had two rudders, but the propellers, due to the larger diameter, now protruded beyond the main line, and this worsened the conditions for the passage of the ship along inland waterways, making it more dangerous to sail on shallows and in river estuaries. In seaworthy tests in a sea state of 4, 5 and 6 points, it was found that with 4 points of excitement, the speed of the ship and the use of any military and technical means were not limited, with an excitement of 6 points, the speed was reduced to 23 knots, and only the main one could be used. artillery (at speeds up to 16 knots). The general assessment of the ship’s maneuverability and seaworthiness was found to be satisfactory. The seaworthiness of the ship in the use of weapons was estimated at 4 points.
Engine

The turbo-gear unit of the TV-9 spacecraft was a single-hull active-reactive single-flow turbine with a capacity of 10,000 horsepower and a single-flow surface condenser located along the axis with a bifurcation of power. TV-9 could be started up from a cold state. During the period of state tests of serial ships, breakdowns of the working blades began to be detected. A special commission chaired by Professor M.I.Grinberg found out that these breakdowns arose due to resonant vibrations at full strokes (both forward and backward). The manufacturer and its SKBT accepted the stresses that were increased against those previously accepted in the marine turbine construction, without ensuring its constructive and technologically high-quality manufacturing. In April and September 1954, resolutions of the Council of Ministers of the USSR were adopted, in pursuance of which the defects of the TV-9 turbines were corrected, in connection with which a temporary limitation on the maximum speed (25 knots) was introduced until 1955, but malfunctions arose with these turbines and further.

Armament

Three 100-mm B-34USMA-type guns were installed on the ship. The aiming of these gun mounts was carried out automatically using a remote control, as well as manually. It was the first domestic universal gun mount with automatic remote guidance from a rangefinder post (PUS “Sfera-50”). There were no serious comments to them, but it was found that the guide tray flexed during operation, and the sleeve reflector did not always ensure free falling of the sleeves. To control the firing of 100-mm artillery, a stabilized sighting post SVP-42-50 was installed, combined with the antenna of the Yakor radar, whose range of action against a sea target was 180 cab, and for an air target – up to 165 cab. The two-tube torpedo launcher installed on the ship was intended for firing only straight-forward steam-gas torpedoes of types 53-38, 53-39, 53-ZEU, 53-51. New radio equipment was installed – the Linh surface target detection radar, which could detect low-flying aircraft, and the Pegas-2 hydroacoustic station, which, at a speed of about 20 knots, was able to detect submarines at a periscope depth at a range of 14 cabs, and an anchor mine – 7 cab (with the minimum requirement – 3 cab).

100mm B-34

The B-34 gun mount was designed in the design bureau of the Bolshevik plant under the leadership of II Ivanov in 1936. The prototype was made in the middle of 1937 and was tested at the proving ground in August-September. On September 21, 1937, the project was returned for revision. The situation repeated itself in December 1938 and 1939.

In 1940, the B-34s were not brought into service and were not accepted into service. But the first B-34s were installed on type 26 and 26-bis cruisers (Kirov) without an electric drive and were manually operated, as a result, effective fire on air targets was impossible.

Construction

By the end of 1958, a series of 68 ships had been built. Comparison of the patrol ships of the project 50 of the first series with foreign counterparts shows that the ship was superior in driving performance, but inferior in cruising range, since it was not intended to escort ocean convoys (like all Soviet ships). According to the general armament, it was equal in strength to the USS Butler (DD-636) and was inferior to the USS Dealey DE-1006, in terms of maximum firing range and the magnitude of a minute salvo it exceeded, but not in conditions of intense splashing; finally, anti-aircraft and anti-submarine weapons were not as effective as those of the American destroyers: there were no homing torpedoes, the range of bombardment and the action of the GAS was not high. The 50-PLO project made it possible to catch up with the Dealey in terms of armament, but at that time more efficient ships began to appear.

The lead ship was laid down on the stocks of the plant №445 (now the plant named after 61 Kommunar) in Nikolaev on December 20, 1951 and received the name “Ermine”, launched on July 30, 1952. Adopted to the Navy after lengthy trials only on July 30, 1954. In total, 68 ships were built before 1958:
-Plant No. 445 (named after 61 Communards) in Nikolaev – 20 units
– Shipyard No. 820 (“Yantar”) in Kaliningrad – 41
-SHP №199 (named after Leninsky Komsomol) in Komsomolsk-on-Amur – 7

This was the first major program for the construction of the TFR of the domestic fleet, after the 30-bis project, it was the second largest series of ships in the domestic fleet in terms of number, the displacement of which was more than 1000 tons. In addition, according to our documentation, 4 ships were built in China. One of the ships, “Arkhangelsk Komsomolets”, even underwent repairs in 1973-1974 with the modernization and dismantling of the torpedo tube.

Modifications

Almost all ships of Project 50 were modernized in 1959-1960, being equipped with new weapons: the MBU-200 bomb was replaced by two RBU-2500, the two-tube torpedo tube – by the three-tube TTA-53-50 for firing homing anti-submarine torpedoes, the Pegasus sonar -2 “- on” Pegas-3M “. The Yakor fire control radar as part of the SVP-42-50 was replaced with the Yakor-M2 radar, the Lin radar – with the Neptun-M radar, the Guys-1M4 radar – with the Fut-N radar… In connection with the changes in the weapons, the components of the load also changed: to maintain stability at a given level, solid ballast had to be placed.

Reception

They were also equipped with the new SFERA-50 firing system identical to the Kotlin’s system, but it was handicapped by excessive calculation time of more than 35 seconds. Their light hull could perform at 28 knots in calm weather, but fell to 23 by force 6 gale, its guns inoperative because of the swell, and poorly efficient from 16 knots already.

Despite the many shortcomings that were revealed in the power plant due to breakdowns of TV-9, the construction of ships of project 50 proceeded quite quickly and by the end of 1958 the entire series of 68 ships was built. Comparison of the SKR pr.50 of the first series with foreign counterparts shows that if our ship surpasses them in terms of driving performance, then it was significantly inferior in cruising range. This is understandable, since our ships were not intended to escort ocean convoys. An integrated assessment of weapons shows that the TFR pr.50 was at the level of the TFR “Butler” built during the BMB and was inferior to the TFR of the “Dili” type built in the 50s (both US Navy).

In terms of artillery armament, if we consider only the maximum firing range and the magnitude of the minute salvo, then the SKR pr.50 was somewhat superior to foreign counterparts, but their turret mounts made it possible to use artillery in conditions of more intense splashing and excitement. Finally, the automatic 76-mm artillery mounts of the SKR “Dili” were significantly more effective than the domestic B-34USMA mounts when firing at air targets. In anti-submarine weapons, the superiority of the TFR “Dili” was significant. So, its torpedo tubes already used homing anti-submarine torpedoes, the Mk108 rocket launcher had an effective firing range of 4.5 cab and a rate of fire up to 12 rounds per minute, and the GAS installed on it had a submarine detection range of more than 30 cab. Only the ships modernized according to the 50-PLO project did anti-submarine weapons and means of support more or less correspond to that time, but the leading naval powers already had other ships with even greater anti-submarine capabilities.

Modifications. Almost all TFR pr. 50 of the Russian Navy in 1959-1960. were modernized according to pr. 50-PLO. They were reinforced with anti-submarine weapons: the MBU-200 bomb was replaced with two RBU-2500, the two-tube TA was replaced with a three-tube TTA-53-50 for firing homing anti-submarine torpedoes, the Pegas-2 GAS – with the Pegas-3M. The ships of the early series had the Guys-1M4 radar, which was later replaced by the Fut-N radar. The Yakor fire control radar as part of the SVP-42-50 was replaced with the Yakor-M2 radar, the Lin radar – with the Neptun-M radar. In connection with the changes in armament, the components of the load also changed. To maintain stability at a given level, it was necessary to place solid ballast on the SKR of the last series and on the modernized ones.

TFR “Arkhangelsk Komsomolets” in 1973-74. underwent repairs with modernization and dismantling of the torpedo tube.
Construction program. The head ICR of project 50 was laid down on the stocks of plant No. 445 (now the plant named after 61 Kommunar) in Nikolaev on December 20, 1951 and received the name “Ermine”, launched on July 30, 1952. Adopted to the Navy after lengthy trials only on July 30, 1954. In total, 68 ships were built before 1958: at plant No. 445 (named after 61 Communards) in Nikolaev – 20 units, at Shipyard No. 820 (“Yantar”) in Kaliningrad – 41, at Shipyard No. 199 (named after Lenkom) in Komsomolsk -on-Amur – 7. This was the first largest program for the construction of the TFR of the domestic fleet, after EM pr. 30-bis – the second largest series of ships in the domestic fleet in terms of number, the displacement of which is more than 1000 tons. In addition, 4 ships were built according to our documentation in China.

17 ships from the USSR Navy were sold to the following countries: Bulgaria – SKR-67 in 1957 (renamed “Darzki”); SKR-53 in 1958 (“Dare”); “Kobchik” in 1985 (“Baudry”); Indonesia – “Puma”, “Sarich”, “Korsak” and “Grizon” in 1963 (renamed respectively to “Slamet Rijari”, “Jons Sudarso”, “Ngurah Rai” and “Mongin Sidi”); “Pelican” in 1964 (“Nuku”); Bison, Bison and Stork in 1965 (renamed Hang Tuan, Kaki Ali and Lambung Mangkurat); GDR – “The Deer” in 1956 (“Ernst Thalmann”); Tour in 1957 (Karl Liebknecht); Sable and Raccoon in 1959 (Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels); Finland – SKR-69 and “Owl” in 1964 (renamed “Hameenmaa” and “Uusimaa”). In addition, 5 more TFRs were built in China under a Soviet license, converted by the Chinese into URO frigates.

Status for 2005 The last ships of this series were decommissioned in 1990-91.
Carried out a combat mission to provide assistance to the armed forces of Egypt: TFR “Jaguar” in 1967 and 1971; TFR “Panther” in 1970; TFR “Kunitsa” in 1967 and 1973; TFR “Raven” in 1967 and 1968; SKR-57 in 1968; to the armed forces of Syria: TFR “Kunitsa” in 1968; the armed forces of Egypt and Syria: SKR-77 in 1973

Modernization

In the years 65-75, the ships still n Soviet service (many had been transfered already), were modernized to the new ASM standards with the new RBU-2500 (128 tubes total) and two twin 25 mm guns, the new fixed bow sonar Herkules, and solid ballast for better stability. After Stalin’s death, Krushchev reduced orders and stopped the program altogether.
