Naval War Starting Questions
(resurrected from the archive - kato13)
************ graebardeII Naval War Starting Questions -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last evening I started listing all USN vessels. Criteria was any vessel still in service 1989-1990, and any vessel built before 1998. This got me to thinking, which can be dangerous, because then I don't sleep well with the brain in gear. Reagan's goal was a 600-ship navy, and the US was pretty close to that when the wall came down. With the wall never coming down, there would (IMO) not be a rush to decommission many of the vessels. Therefore I propose those vessels decommissioned on/after 1989 would remain in service at least another 6 years. Most of these vessels were only 25-30 years old when they went to mothballs, were sold off, scraped, or what-ever in the 89-90 timeframe. At the very least they would be reserve fleet minimal manned IMO. If I recall, the Navy was not suffering too badly for manning in the Cold War era. graebardeII ************ Grimace Jack of all trades & sometime babbler of nonsense Hey, since you're making that list, would you mind sharing it?

The vessels in itallics are on the way when the war begins. I'm wondering if they couldn't have been commissioned early. War has a way of speeding up production.

I'm still working on the list. I think these DDG's however were over-looked, as I'm working the frigates now, but I will double check the list. Thanks for the heads up. No, I have NOT cross checked the list as yet. As for sold-leased in the mid-90s, that is the what were working at. Your info is RL based on with the wall coming down in 89-90. In the scenario we're working on (at lease what I THINK we are) is v1, where the wall stayed up. As I asked in the first post of this thread, would the US dispose of these vessels had the wall not come down, and Cold War continued? The reason they were sold-leased was the great beating of 'swords into plowshares' when 'peace broke out' and the 'walls came tumbling down'. Personally I do not think they would have if the US was to maintain their 600 ship fleet. As I said, these vessels were mostly under 30 years old and still serviceable. Granted SOME of the oldest may have been sold-leased, but that is a question we have to discuss.

By tomorrow eve, with luck, I shall have completed the frigates list, which comprises the single largest group of vessels. I'm sure you'd be welcome at the projects work site. Sorry if I seemed short. Looking at what I wrote it seemed that way, but that is not the way I intended. It's a work in progress, and without proof readers, omissions, as already pointed out, will undoubtedly be made. As there are numerous navies in this project, persons with knowledge of any navies, and their operational doctrine, will greatly help the project. I can count beans, but doctrine is vague not being a blue-water sailor. I was Army. Grae graebardeII ************ boogiedowndonovan Hey Grae, good stuff, I know you're still working on the list, but I think I found an error. Shouldn't CVN70 CARL VINSON should be homeported at Alameda, CA, not Bremerton, WA. IRL, ALM closed because of the post-cold war draw down, and closed in 1997. In T2K, ALM would still be open. (Matt Wiser, check me on this) By the way, are you concentrating on combat ships only? Or will you list amphibs, fleet support ships, etc? globalsecurity.org is a good site, have you seen this one? http://www.hazegray.org/ boogiedowndonovan ************ Matt Wiser If there had been no BRAC process (if the Wall hadn't come down), Alameda would certainly be still open. VA-304 (USN reserve with A-6Es and KA-6Ds) was the only squadron based there, but it was a carrier home port. One can see a continuance of the Reagan-era buildup into the 1990s up until the Sino-Soviet War begins. Then one would expect SECDEF and JCS starting to dust off contingency plans to get ships out of mothballs, ID'ing reservists who would be called up first, etc. In my T2K timeline, I have the A-6F and F-14D programs still going (axed in 1988 and 1992, respectively), and speed-up of building Burke-class DDGs and Seawolf-class SSNs, along with the six unbuilt Ohio-class SSBNs. Matt Wiser ************ graebardeII 1. Yes I intend to post the rest of the fleet as I get them keyed. 2. Yep, familiar with hazegray. 3. The first assumption we're making is the Cold War continues, there was not a reduction in the fleet, and very few installations were shutdown from 1989 onward. It's as Matt suggests. Only those vessels too old to function well are sold-scrappped. 4. I'm using the homeports shown in globalsecurity, however I know they will be adjusted some, such as you mention with Vinson. Thanks for the inputs.

I pretty much agree with your assessment Matt except there still would have been a BRAC process it had started 1988. The army had drawn down two brigades before 1990 had started (2nd Brigade, 9th ID [1988] and 2nd Brigade, 4th ID [1989]). Maybe it wouldn't have been as deep as the one we know but there still would have been some sort of a drawdown. Although I do agree that Alameda probably still would have been there. Quote:
Last edited by shrike6 : 01-22-2006 at 06:34 PM. shrike6 ************ FightingFlamingo I think that in regards to the BRAC. If we are using a variant of the V1 chronology something has to address 1989. If it didn't happen and there was a heat up in the Cold War... those decisions could have been reversed. a Generalised timeline of events from 1988 through 1995 should be agreed on to justify a naval construction plan. After the Sino-Soviet War starts in 1995, there is potential for an acceleration of the the shipbuilding program. __________________ Cold Blue Steel - the spirit of the bayonet FightingFlamingo ************ chico20854 I can pull out the Naval shipbuilding plan from 1987 that lists what ships were to be built when. I think that will isolate 1989 and get us what a continuation of the Cold War would have looked like. I'll try to get to it today... chico20854 ************ chico20854 US Navy Shipbuilding Plan as of 1988: 1 SSBN a year until 20 in the fleet 1 LA-class sub a year until 66 in the fleet 1 Seawolf class sub in 1989, 2 in 1991 and each year after. 1 carrier in 1990, 1 in 1993 3 Burke-class destroyers in 1989 and 1990, 5 in 1991 and 6 a year until 29 in the fleet 1 Wasp-class LHD in 1988, 1989 and 1991, 1 every other year until 12 in the fleet 1 LSD-CV in 1988, 1990, 1991 and 2 a year until 10 in the fleet 2 MHC (Italian Lerici-class minehunter) in 1989, 3 in 1990 and 1991, 4 a year after until 17 in the fleet 1 AOE in 1989 and 2 in 1991 1 AE-36 in 1991 and 1992, 2 in 1993, 1 in 1994. 1 ARS in 1990 2 T-AOE in 1988, 1989 and 1990, 1 in 1991. 2 T-AGOS in 1988, 1 in 1989, 3 in 1990, 2 in 1991. 12 LCAC a year. The dates are order date. Commissioning dates are, on average, about 5 years after the order date, although that varies by type of ship and specific circumstances (i.e. shipyard bankruptcy, multiple vessels ordered on same date, etc). For aircraft, the procurement plan was: 12 A-6E/F in 1988, 18 in 1989 and 24 a year thereafter 12 EA-6B a year 42 AV-8B a year until 328 in the fleet 132 FA-18 in 1988 and 1989, 163 a year thereafter 12 F-14 in 1988, 18 in 1989, 24 in 1990 and 36 in 1991 to 304 in the fleet 14 CH/MH-53E in 1988 and 1989, 12 in 1990 and the possibility of more thereafter 6 SH-60B in 1988, 1989 and 1990, 12 in 1991 and thereafter until 239 in the fleet 18 SH-60F in 1988, 1989 and 1990, 12 in 1991 and thereafter until 175 in the fleet 9 P-3 Orion/year, with P-6 production starting in 1990 and reaching 25 a year 6 E-2C a year maintain capability to produce at least 6 SH-2G a year 3 E-6A/year 12 T-45 in 1988, 24 in 1989 and 1990, 48 in 1991 and thereafter I haven't been able to locate the comparable Coast Guard plan. chico20854 ************ shrike6 Good stuff Chico. __________________ shrike6 ************ graebardeII Submarines -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SSN 585 SKIPJACK 59 90 NOR SSN 588 SCAMP 61 91 SDG SSN 590 SCULPIN 61 90 SDG SSN 591 SHARK 61 90 NOR SSN 592 SNOOK 61 86 NLD SSN 594 PERMIT 62 91 SDG SSN 595 PLUNGER 63 89 XX SSN 596 BARB 63 89 XX SSN 603 POLLOCK 64 89 XX SSN 604 HADDO 64 91 SDG SSN 605 JACK 67 90 NLD SSN 606 TINOSA 64 92 NLD SSN 607 DACE 64 88 XX SSN 612 GUARDFISH 66 92 SDG SSN 613 FLASHER 66 92 SDG SSN 614 GREENLING 67 94 PNH SSN 615 GATO 68 96 NLD SSN 621 HADDOCK 67 93 MIC SSN 597 TULIBEE 60 93 xx SSN 637 STURGEON 67 94 CHA SSN 638 WHALE 68 96 GRO SSN 639 TAUTOG 68 97 PHB SSN 646 GRAYLING 69 97 CHA SSN 647 POGY 71 99 SDG SSN 648 ASPRO 69 95 PHB SSN 649 SUNFISH 69 97 CHA SSN 650 PARGO 68 95 BRM SSN 651 QUEENFISH 66 92 PHB SSN 652 PUFFER 69 96 PHB SSN 653 RAY 67 93 CHA SSN 660 SANDLANCE 71 98 GRO SSN 661 LAPON 67 92 NOR SSN 662 GUMARD 68 95 SDG SSN 663 HAMMERHEAD 68 95 MIC SSN 664 SEA DEVIL 69 91 CHA SSN 665 GUITARRO 72 92 SDG SSN 666 HAWKBILL 71 99 PHB SSN 667 BERGALL 69 96 MIC SSN 668 SPADEFISH 69 97 NOR SSN 669 SEAHORSE 69 95 CHA SSN 670 FINBACK 70 97 NOR SSN 672 PINADU 71 98 SDG SSN 673 FLYINGFISH 70 96 BRM SSN 674 TREPANG 70 99 GRO SSN 675 BLUEFISH 71 96 NOR SSN 676 BILLFISH 71 99 GRO SSN 677 DRUM 72 95 SDG SSN 678 ARCHERFISH 71 98 GRO SSN 679 SILVERSIDES 72 94 BRM SSN 680 WILLIAM H.

I did notice one area that I may be able to offer some insight. The Simpson (FFG56), Roberts (FFG58), and Kauffman (FFG59) were all home-ported in Newport until 94. There were some others there but I can't recall exactly which ones. I know the Simpson moved to Norfolk in 94 after returning from Somalia, then to Mayport 18-24 months later. I'm not sure when the Sammy B. and Kauffman left Newport, but I know they were still there in Dec 93. Approaching this from the perspective that the Cold War did not end, in all likelihood the Navy would have maintained their de-centralized posture and would have maintained ships, more-or-less, at their 1989-90 locations. Regards, Jim Wardrip T2k13 Design Team JimWardrip ************ graebardeII Jim, Thanks for the heads-up. I realize the homeports in 96 are probably different from those given. I appologize to all for that, but right now I'm trying to at least get all the vessels that were, or may have been had 'peace not broken out', in service. I have wound up using TWO sources now to cross check. FAS being the second source. I've discovered several ommissions on my part, which I will correct to the appropriate list today. I 'think' I have the list done for the most part. I have well over 600 ships, not counting USCG vessels, sealift, prepositioned, and reserve fleet. I know some of the vessels on the list may come from RRF, but now my concentration is on logistical vessels.

The party booby trapped the ship heavily before they left it, however, and as a result a couple of dozen Russians were killed when they tried to salvage the vessel. __________________ "I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit.

Now I can get to work on figuring out how the Russian Fleet in the Pacific managed to stay some what intact after two years of fighting the PRC's Navy and other questions regarding Soviet Naval deployments. (i.e. How the heck did the Russian Navy get out of the Black Sea and through the GIUK GAP without SOSUS picking it up?) Stilleto69 ************ DeaconR Chico: We need to list an acronym definition to go with these lists. DeaconR ************ chico20854 Hazegray has a good list at: http://www.hazegray.org/faq/smn2.htm I included the Soviet designations for the more purists out there. The NATO designations (DDG, FFL) and class names are also there, so the Soviet ones can be ignored if you want. chico20854 ************ DeaconR Thanks very much.

Matt Wiser Thanks, Chico! BTW K-141 was the Kursk. Matt Wiser ************ Matt Wiser Chico: any Soviet Naval Aviation info going to be added? Don't ask me why, but for some reason they had AF ranks, not naval ones. Matt Wiser ************ chico20854 This is what I got off of orbat.com last year. I'll bounce it against my other info at home this weekend.

The carrier regiment has Su-33s (navalized Su-27s) and Ka-27 variants nowadays. The MiG-29K was still a likely choice for the fighter/attack role, with the Su-33s being the fleet defense interceptor. The Kiev-class carriers would've had the Yak-41 as a Yak-38 replacement. The Yak-44 was under development for AEW off the big ships.

Bear in mind this is a "devil's advocate" post and some of these suggestions may seem improbable. 1) For whatever reasons NATO's war planners had underestimated the size, geographic coverage and or combat effectiveness of the WarPac's various anti-ship, anti-air and anti-sub capable assets. Perhaps the Soviets had very carefully reduced the non-combat effectiveness of their hardware and personnel when not engaged in major conflict, to deceive opposing intelligence analysts. Perhaps NATO had over-estimated its own potency. Perhaps some unexpected consequence of major events during the war enhanced WarPac's potency while retarding NATO's. 2) The WarPac forces, or most likely the Soviets, had secretly developed some key weapons, vehicles or other hardware, managed to keep its existance a secret, and enjoyed unexpected operation success once the war got nasty. More on this option in a later post. 3) A significant proportion of NATO's fleet losses, certainly far larger than suspected by NATO, were inflicted by a third (ostensibly neutral) party or parties such as the French and/or the Japanese. This option may contain elemnts of option (2), in that the third party had secretly developed key weapons or vehicles in secret or demonstrated greater than expected capabilities with known systems. For instance, what if French Govt decided that if the Soviet Navy was going to be effectively destroyed, it would be best for NATO's naval strength to be greatly reduced as well. Unless you capture or destroy an attacking sub it has got to be tough to positively determine what force sank your carrier, and NATO's (understandable) assumption for most losses would be that they were inflicted by WarPac forces. __________________ "I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure" - Corporal Dwayne Hicks, Colonial Marine Corp -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last edited by Targan : 03-17-2006 at 08:17 AM. Targan ************ Targan Further to scenario (2) in my previous post, the biggest questions would be what sort of secret weapons systems could the WarPac have fielded during the Twilight War capable of causing such profound effects on NATO's naval assets, and how could the Soviets keep these weapon systems secret? I think one of the most realistic methods of maintaining secrecy is the method practiced by many owners of newly built castles during mediaeval times - having their architect and associated workers killed at completion to prevent them from revealing any secret passages or providing the enemy with accurate floor plans. Another strategy could be deliberately keeping the number of people involved in a weapon's development small, with projects knowingly sanctioned and resourced by higher authorities who have agreed not to seek information or disseminate knowledge of projects' existance. Given that the Soviet government demonstrated a capacity for thinking quite far ahead, some projects could have slowly advanced for decades while maintaining a low population of participants. As for the weapons themselves, things like the 200 knot torpedo are good candidates, but what about ortillery (Cyberpunk 2020's name for orbital artillery)? The actual launchers and projectiles could be suprisingly low tech and simple, with only the launcher's station keeping, targeting and communications systems requiring any real sophistication. Simple but effective ortillery munitions would look much like steel crowbars and could be cold-launched using springs or compressed gas, achieving impressive velocities during reentry and arriving on target as a superheated AP penetartor wreathed in a shroud of of metal plasma. Quite accurate geographically but usually unguided and requiring a relatively long flight time. The flight time is not so much of a problem when you are aiming at an aircraft carrier, however. The components for ortillery satellites could have been ferried out of the gravity well in small parcels accompanying any of the hundreds of manned and unmanned space launches conducted by the Soviets over the decades. A far sighted planner would start with the simple components such as projectile packs and launch components, with the complete systems being assembled only in recent years or perhaps even right at the start of the Sino-Soviet War. __________________ "I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit.

Targan ************ BnF95 Out of curiousity, wouldn't the USSR have moved part of their Atlantic fleet over to the Pacific because of their war with the PRC? __________________ Trivia: The word F.U.C.K. comes from the abbreviation used by English Police back in the 1880's. When a person was arrested for sex with another person (who is not their wedded partner) they would be charged with For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge BnF95 ************ Matt Wiser Doubtful; the Soviet Pacific Fleet had enough of a superiority over the PLAN that reinforcement from Northern, Baltic, or Black Sea Fleets wasn't needed. The PRC still doesn't have a real blue-water navy, and as discussed in the old threads on the Sino-Soviet War, the Soviets inflict a lot of losses on the PLAN with the forces available. ROE for attacking PRC warships would have been pretty lenient, but when faced with merchantmen taking war materiel to China, they would have been limited for political reasons to only attacking PRC-flagged ships. And you'd have to get a visual on the target before attacking (ship-based helos are good for that). Of course, most war materiel being sent to the PRC goes in third-country shipping, which the Soviets are, as Webstral has indicated, reluctant to stop because they don't want a wider war. Not to mention no air or naval activity anywhere near Macao and Hong Kong-that would bring in the West. (Freedom of Navigation, protection of neutral shipping, etc.) Matt Wiser ************ chico20854 On the Soviet Pacific fleet, I envision them making greater use of their facilities in Vietnam. They had a small squadron in the 80s operating from Cahm Ran Bay and had a short regiment of Badgers operating from DaNang. For the Sino-Soviet War, they could use the DaNang base to run through missions, deeper into China than otherwise possible or with greater weapons loads (having to transit a shorter distance after munitions use). The Soviet naval superiority along with nominal compliance with the principles of free navigation would permit the USSR to run convoys down the China coast to resupply the bases in Vietnam (and allowing the Soviet bombers at DaNang to return to the USSR with a full load of munitions to drop off on the way). If a Soviet convoy happens to locate a Chinese one (or Chinese naval forces) they can engage or call in other Soviet units... free "innocent" intelligence gathering. In the weeks leading up to the expansion of the war in the West, the base in Vietnam can be built up even further to permit more extended autonomous operations. (More detail when I finish my Soviet strategy piece!) As far as the advanced weapons, I have a few ideas. The 200-knot torpedo and it's follow on are on my list of balance-changers, along with wake-homing torpedos (no real effective countermeasure for that was ever developed) and extensive mining, which NATO never really got an effective handle on. I hadn't put much thought into orbiting systems, other than as recon assets. I like the idea of FOBS (nukes in orbit to induce EMP) being in service, even though they were officially retired. Also Soviet coastal artillery had some tricks up their sleaves when it came to the Battle of the Kola Peninsula - land based SS-N-22 Sunburns (remember how effective Scud hunts were in the open desert? Try it in fjords with smaller targets under a better air defense umbrella!) There was also an element of Western misunderstanding re: Soviet naval capabilities. NATO looked at readiness meaning that crews are well trained in the operation of their vessels, developed by extensive practical exercises and long deployments or exercises at sea. The USSR saw naval readiness as meaning a ship is ready to go to sea at a few hours notice and engage in combat. Sending ships to sea in peacetime would result in greater wear and tear on the ships, requiring time in the yard when they would be unable to eneter combat rapidly. With conscripts on short enlistments and limited procurement rubles, there is not much sense in wearing out your navy's ships while still only having a marginally effective fleet. As my strategic work will explain, NATO up until the mid 1980s fundamentally misunderstood Soviet intentions at sea, essentially replacing Germany with the USSR in its "WW III as the repeat of the WW II Battle of the Atlantic" concept of operations. chico20854 ************ Matt Wiser As it turned out, in the late '80s NATO did get info on wake-homing torpedoes-some of the reference books from that time do mention the Type-65 "Long Lanceski" as a wake-homer, along with some of the standard 21" fish as wake-homing as well. The Type-65 is a big 26.5" torpedo with a range of up to 40 miles, and either a passive homing guidance, or wake-homing. Nuke or conventional warhead. A possible shore-based missile is the SS-NX-24, development of which was stopped in '91. Check strategypage.com-India bought the rights to the missile, and paid for the development costs. They call the missile the Brahmos. Iran and the PRC are said to be very interested. Try globalsecurity or astronautix.com as well-they should have additional info. It may be a second-strike nuclear system for the Indians...besides conventional warhead versions. Even with some additional Soviet weapons, I still don't buy the wholesale decimation of the USN. Even if most of the surviving ships can't go to sea due to lack of fuel, more of the Navy should still be around. Other than nuclear-powered vessels, the only ships with fuel would be those in the Persian Gulf with the 5th Fleet, and those based in the SF Bay Area. Matt Wiser ************ DeaconR Matt: why not take this idea...in my game the Soviets actually are defeated on the naval front. However the lack of infrastructure and steady fuel shipments mean that the NATO fleets are not running to full capacity. You don't even have to explain what this means to your players, you can simply make the information largely unavailable. However if you need to have a ship pick them up on some godforsaken coastline or assist in some operation if, as I do, you have them working with government forces as opposed to cast totally adrift, then you got it. I've never suggested that the NATO fleets were decimated. Rather I have on occasion the chimera of the Soviet and Pact fleets, which mostly results in a stray that has gone pirate or something. And I think that the game writers were mostly just trying to make aircraft and naval power unavailable. But you don't need that extreme an idea to make that notion work. In any actual war or conflict there can be things that aren't available to people in the field. Also you might have outside the Gulf or the Bay fleets at anchor or whatever which had just a couple of ships on active duty and perhaps others ready to be refurbished should the need arise. It's fairly easy for me: I'm running my game on the Atlantic Coast/New England of course and so the focus is on the captured sub and Bigelow with the smaller ships doing most of the main duties. Is your game the one set on the NW Pacific or what? DeaconR ************ Matt Wiser I posted some stuff a while back about the Navy: some surviving carriers and their escorts, some amphibs, and the surviving boomers and SSNs. Also what happened to the battleships and the two Des Moines class heavy cruisers. Air and naval support should not be unavailable, but rare. You'd better have a very good reason to put those assets into play. Even with Persian Gulf and California oil still pumping and limited refining, Jet fuel doesn't grow on trees, and you'd better have a good reason for calling for air support or extraction. Ditto for naval support. One of the posts I did had U.S.S. Constellation (CV-64) and her battle group anchored at Guam: they have fuel, but only enough to get home, but CINC-PACCOM wants the carrier to be ready to cover any pullout from Korea. There's also one of the Amphibs with a provisional MEU as well-they were headed for Korea when the ICBMs flew, and they made port in Guam. Another amphib operates out of Hilo, Hawaii, with a Forrest Sherman DD as escort-they have fuel for limited ops, but the U.S.S. Wisconsin (BB-64) is in port in Hilo, with a torpedo hole in her bow, limited fuel, and no drydock. But the two other ships "show the flag" in Hawaiian waters, and the Marines aboard U.S.S Essex (LHD-2) support the 29th Infantry Brigade (HI NG). Matt Wiser ************ DeaconR What you're suggesting makes sense, Matt. Looking at that guy Nathan Decker's site I was trying to come up with what modern ships would be available to be in and around South Carolina/Georgia/Florida. Still working on that but I'm away at a wedding for the weekend and of course didn't bring Jane's with me. If anyone has any offhand ideas about that I'd be appreciative, though I had already come up with wanting Barnstable County and Audacity among the vessels available. Targan: I will address the space question in another thread. DeaconR ************ Matt Wiser One can also make the argument that the surviving naval assets on both the East and West coasts are now national-level assets. Which means the CNO in Colorado Springs (or Denver) makes the call as to where and when to send surviving surface ships and subs to sea, and for what mission(s). The ships left in Europe, the Far East, and in the Gulf are still under the appropriate theather naval commander. For the boomers, things haven't changed very much: they still go to sea and await orders. One SSN that still has an exciting life is U.S.S. Parche (SSN-687). She is based out of the Trident Sub Base in Bangor, WA, and she has a SEAL platoon assigned; her missions are still highly classified. When she returns from a cruise, she first arrives in the covered drydock at the base, where it is rumored that items recovered on her operations are offloaded. Only after a period in the covered dock does she moor at a pier.

Well, the government thought they had sold it for scrap. Now apparently the Chinese military have the Melbourne and are using it to train carrier pilots. You will have to excuse me for a moment, every time I think about that situation I suffer an overwhelming urge to bang my head against a hard surface until the pain goes away. Ah heck, that's no where near as concerning as the Australian government's tacit approval for future sales of Australian uranium to China. Who knows, perhaps one day the Chinese will refine it and send it back, in MIRVs, from sub-orbit. France has a carrier or two and some helicopter carriers. India has a carrier and is organising more. But all of the carriers in the world combined come nowhere close to matching the overall tonnage of the US carrier fleet.

France: Charles DeGaulle, Foch and Clemenceau (IRL 1 of the older ones was retired, but not during a war!) USSR: 2 Moscow-class, 4 Kiev-class, 2 Tblisi-class and Ulyanovsk. Italy: Garibaldi and Mazzini (planned in the early 90s, continually delayed IRL) Spain: 1 modern carrier, possibly old WWII escort carrier (Dedalo, seperate thread on this one...) Thailand: 1 India: 2 (IRL one was decommissioned Jan 97) Brazil: 1 Argentina: 1 NATO forces also convert a number of large container ships to escort carriers (using the Arapaho project materials/techniques) flying ASW and AEW helos and Harriers. A related issue with the larger number of carriers (from speeding up production and retaining older ships) is the availability of aircraft and crew. The French, for example, in the 1980s operated fixed-wing aircraft off of only 1 carrier to save money, using the second only for helos. Add in a third carrier and you have more space for aircraft than you have aircraft and aircrews to fly. With everyone trying to get more harriers (for the smaller ships) there's going to be a crunch and some smaller navies will be left out. Finally, if you aren't going to have a draft (nad even if you do!) you're going to have a tough time finding enough crewmen for all those ships. (And a draft only helps a little... you need experienced officers and NCOs, especially mid-grades, who aren't available in general as retirees and can't be magically created from drafted civilians). And Targan, you wouldn't believe the mess and minor scandals that have accompanied the disposal of old carriers in the US. We sank USS America in a secret munitions exercise and pissed off the former crewmen, Coral Sea was scrapped with the usual environmental mess (and featured some unaccounted for 500-lb bombs squirreled away!) and the Oriskany, to be sunk as an artificial reef, has been tied up in the courts for years! -Chico chico20854 ************ thefusilier Chico what are the Engadine, Argus and Ocean? Ocean being the latest Commando Carrier they have now? __________________ The Fusilier thefusilier ************ chico20854 Engadine was a RN helicopter training ship. It was used as a transit deck during the Falklands... Harriers deploying from the UK to Ascension could land for a refuel. It had a deck that could land 4 helos. IRL decommissioned in 89, scrapped in 96. Argus was a container ship that was converted to an aircraft transport for the Falklands. After the war the RN kept her and used her to to train helo pilots (allowing Engadine to be retired), as an assault ship and as a hospital ship. 5 helos up to Chinook size, can land Harriers, probably can transport more than 5 helos. HMS Ocean is the RN's newest LPH. IRL it's delivery was delayed due to politics, not enough money, etc, commissioning in 98. For T2k it was in commissioned in 95. 18 helos (12 Sea Kings, 6 Lynx). All these ships have the ability to fly harriers but not really to support them - maintenance, munitions, liquid oxygen, command & control, etc. But they are easier to adapt than a civilian container ship. And as I dig deeper I see that the air threat to the convoy lanes in most of the world is pretty light, so a few harriers will be more than enough (and where it's heavy whether you have a few or a lot of harriers it still doesn't matter you're going to get hit)! chico20854 ************ thefusilier Thanks. __________________ The Fusilier thefusilier ************ ChalkLine Quote:

I've been reading through a book lately on the worlds naval vessels from aircraft carriers right down to small patrol craft. Written as at June 1984 and extremely detailed in weapons, electronics, range, and a dozen other statistics.
What I've found very interesting is the age of most vessels. Many smaller countries, and a large number of the larger ones were still operating ships built and commissioned in 1943-1945, many of which were transfered from the US and UK navies in the 60's and 70's. What I find even MORE interesting is that roughly 60-70% of the US naval strength was of 1940's and 50's vintage with upgrades consisting of little more than the addition of a newer radar and fire control systems and often replacement of a gun turret with a missile system of some type. It's also interesting to note that on average, missile frigates, destroyers and even the larger cruisers usually only carry about eight (8) missiles for each launcher. Therefore, resupply ships are absolutely VITAL to ongoing operations. At the same time, it appears the Soviets were going through a massive expansion and replacement program of their naval assets (while also retaining many of the older vessels). So, on paper the US navy (and others) might appear to have been very strong, but in reality they were on the whole operating with seriously obsolete equipment. It's a bit like a modern army of today being equiped with M47 and M48 tanks, M3 Halftracks and bolt action rifles - they'll still kill you, but put up against say T-72's, BMPs, and AK-74s and you've got a real problem.

Those two classes are actually mentioned (and included in my general percentage impressions) although there was no indication at the time many of the older classes (except perhaps about half the 1940's models) were to be decommissioned.

Hulls don’t have to be upgraded if they are serviceable. The weapons systems and the electronics to manage the weapons are the items that kill other ships.

This is true, but metal hulls in salt water don't tend to stand up well to 40+ years sitting in the ocean. Not to mention the machinery that propells them develops "issues" the older it gets.
Would you drive a 1940's rust bucket into a warzone and feel good about it even if the stereo had been replaced and the seats reupholstered? :S

Some metal hulls do fine in the ocean for 40+ years. Materials, maintenance, and the like play and enormous role in how well a hull survives. To suggest that the US Navy would go to the expense of refitting the weapons and electronics on a rust bucket is really rather silly. It's fine to have a realistic look at the potential drawbacks and liabilities of the US Navy--or any navy, for that matter. Your point about an Australian sub penetrating the security screen of a carrier battle group is a good, realistic example of how a motivated and capable leader and crew can make the most of their equipment and carry out successful attacks. It's another matter entirely to imply that the USN is so inept that new weapons (costing millions) are going to be installed in hulls that should be scrapped--which is the only reasonable interpretation of the term "rust bucket". I'll trust the judgment of professional naval architects to determine which hulls are suitable to be maintained and refitted. Webstral |

The largest issues I remember reading about other refits were functional issues like HMMWVs not fitting where Jeeps were expected on certain Amphbs. Power plants and screws were replaced without major issues from what I can recall. The Soviets on the other hand had a pretty well deserved (IMO) reputation for slacking off on maintenance. Quote:

An unprotected metal hull would be rendered unseaworthy in about 5 years. That would mean that critical parts of the hull would be sufficiently weakened or embrittled enough to threaten to break in strong weather. It is for this reason that ships are regularly maintained, as I will discuss further a bit later in this post. Of course, there are other ways corrosion can cause problems as well, such as in the decomposition of seals (responsible for the loss of one ex-soviet vessel sold to India), and portals jamming shut due to expansion or freezing. If soldiers lives depended on keeping thier equipment functioning, however, I am sure you would see a marked improvement in the maintainance work done by soviet sailors, so there would be less of a difference there than you might think. If looking to work out the life span of a metal ship by looking at corrosion of the hull alone, you would have to figure in the following factors: -Availability of Zinc electrodes. Usually refitted every couple of years, without these sacrificial anodes around the hull, corrosion will be much faster. -Surface protection, ie paint (but not always. Aluminium forms it's own protective but brittle coating, Aluminium Oxide, which protects the metal underneath). This needs replacing quite often, depending on many conditions. For most warships, the crew do this on down time about once per year, depending on how much action they see. Repairs make this needed more often, as do temperature extremes (artic or pacific heat can remove paint pretty well). Pesticides and copper in pait on the underside can reduce the damage barnicles will cause to the paint, but such paints will be harder to obtain. -Temperature of the water. Warm water will be more corrosive than cold water, and there will also be more fouling. On the other hand, ice will be much more abrasive. Most of these rely on regularly taking the boat out of the water every couple of years. Never a problem in peace time, but if all the major drydocks are out of commission, and they would be major naval targets, then the lifespan of the ships will drop remarkably. It should be noted that most smaller vessels (ie with thinner hulls, etc) from World War II were decomissioned before the 1980's, despite regular maintainance. If vessels were not used (not really applicable in this scenario) they might last for 20 years without proper maintainance (ie a drydock), but in action, the hulls are unlikely to last more that 10-15 years (most protections will be reduced in 5 years), and many smaller vessels (50-500t) will most likely not last that long. Fast attack craft, of which the Soviets have heaps, can be pulled out of the water by trucks, and thereby maintained. Indeed, you may even find some still hidden on thier trucks... By the way, the Australian Wheat board has been taking tips from thier US counterparts who demand fair trading in Australia while putting up hugh protection for US farmers in the US. Ironic we get better trading terms for our wheat from China than the US, despite fighting beside US forces in most wars since the second world war...guess money does show who your friends are! |

Thanks for the welcome. The link with the AWB is a good one, but I notice somewhat dated. However, having worked for over half a decade in Bishkek, where the US Army base in Kyrgyzstan is located, we have also observed millions of US dollars being paid in a government sanctioned manner that is known to head to individual bank accounts for the privilidge of using that base. Of course you are not responsible for how corrupt countries spend thier money, but bribes are a known way of doing business in such nations, and indeed possibly the only way. Only usually, the US government forces them to call it by a different name and 'legitimize' it for the home folk! I do not see it as morally any different, but rather someone was a bit lax in some paperwork. We hear about the US also being involved in the same scheme of aid for oil or food for oil. Again, we were right there with you! Regarding the maintainance of ships, we have not even started on the mechanical side of things, where the lower tech russian vessels could well be in a much stronger position... |

Another thought
Greetings
On the note of lower tech, I have noticed that many russian feild engineers with small backyard workshops are pretty capable of making 'makeshift' modification. Having beenin the ex-USSR, I have seen that every major centre had it's own bomb shelter, and this was particularly true of industrial areas, so it is quite likely that a small portion, enought to make machinery to convert small craft to steam, would have survived someplace. In particular, taking some of these small craft and converting them to steam, to run off wood (available in great supply in Russia) would seem to be a very logical step in the event fuel oil was not available. No where near as efficient, so range and speed would be reduced, but it is likely they could still get 20-25kts for a few hundred km. I am sure most small vessels still in use would have had such conversions throughout the world within the first decade of liquid fuel not being available. This would make wood, and hence forests, a much higher value target, both for heating and transport, but I have not seen any of that in the Twilight modules. Did I miss that? Regardless, the USSR has always been seen as being strongest as a coastal navy, and thier ideology and srtucture are somewhat different from the West. In most wars, they have opted for larger numbers of lower tech items that are more easily maintained in the feild, and this is also true of thier navy. Forays into larger naval conflicts out of range of land-based aircraft and support have rarely gone well for them, so in reality they would be hesitant in sending more than boomers and ICBN's much further than their coast. This could explain the decimation of NATO navies...attacking the Soviets at home has always been a dangerous affair, and the Navies would have taken the brunt of any amphibious assault. On another note, Stalin had many very ambitious ideas, one of them to join the Black sea and the Caspian sea with a naval channel. Another was to create a naval channel by joining existing waterways from St Petersburg northeast to Voznesene, then through, Povenets and Nadvoltsy to make another seige of Stalingrad much more difficult, and to ensure that the navy to the north could reinforce the baltic quickly if needed. I am not sure if that channel was ever completed, but if it was many ships could well escape the baltic blockade if they were needed elsewhere. |
