Exhibition "Application of Science and Technology in the Enterprises" at the National Convention Center appeared a mini-model submarine made by Vietnam.
Currently, the Vietnamese Navy has a total of 6 Kilo 636-class diesel-electric submarines purchased from Russia, forming "steel fists in the sea", with very high strength and deterrence.
According to some military experts, to meet the operational requirements in the new condition, the number of submarines as above still need to be added.
However, even when the plan comes true, perhaps the Vietnamese Navy still needs another force to play the backbone next to the main block, which is the fleet of mini submarines with displacement of water. Small but equipped with strong firepower.
Currently, even the major military powers in the world pay great attention to the development of mini submarines to assign them to be the defensive force, because there is no more suitable means for "guerrilla at sea".
Technology for making mini submarines is considered not too complicated, as it does not require the integration of many electronic systems and weapons. At the core of mini-submarines is the focus on hydro-sounding equipment as well as the secret to keeping noise levels within range.
For the Vietnamese People's Navy, in the past few years the military shipbuilding industry has made great progress, we have been able to create many classes of 2,000-ton patrol ship, or 500 tons gunships.
In addition, the experience of exploiting the Kilo 636 attack submarine or the Yugo mini submarine cannot be ignored, which is the premise for the construction of new mini submarines in the future.
Recently at the Exhibition "Application of Science and Technology in the Enterprises", Hanoi University of Science and Technology introduced the Dolphin remotely operated underwater vehicle with the size of 2100 x 250 cm, weighs 80 kg, dives up to 50 m during 6-8 hours. Cruise control device, directly or self-propelled serving the activities of observation, measurement ...
It is easy to see that the design of the Dolphin submersible is fully capable of zooming into a full-sized mini submarine carrying a crew as well as weapons, which can be considered as a premise for the construction of submarine fleet. small size for the future Vietnamese Navy.
