@@BecksHobbyProductions Sailing from Sydney Harbour 0800 cleared the heads on a Leander class destroyer. Heading south for the exercise area. In the ops rm doing DSOTS (Daily operability test systems). Powered up the 177 long-range sonar, ran through various ranges, and feq took a bathy for water layer temp, sat back and had a bit of a play. After about 30min was preparing to shut down as the Casex was due to commence at 1400. Sudden;y quite unexpectedly, the 177 returned a signal, then another at about 5000yds. Strange. It takes 3 pings to class pos sub another hit called the OOW to have a look at the bearing and range with their binocs. Sure enough, a periscope dipping through.the small swell. Hmm, not one of ours. Chinese, maybe, or Russian went passive, slowed our ship down, and scanned the bearing bit of sea clutter, but very difficult to judge. Capt came in for a sitrep and said well done, let's play. So the destroyer ran down the bearing, and we closed to about 2500 yds, with no more scope and sub. It must have dived under the layer which bends sonar beams and forms a shadow for the sub to hide under a P3 was on task, and we handed the contact over, switched off the sonar, and I think I had helmsman duty. Life went on. Had some good contacts in the Indian Ocean off India and the Gulf War also during RIMPAC x4. Best life ever being a sailor. Where men were men and women were for in-depth conversation.

my wife's father served as the commander of the BCH5 on the submarine 613 project (this is the predecessor of the 641 project) in the Pacific Fleet in the USSR for many years. They participated in many campaigns up to the shores of South America. He said that the boats were extremely reliable and maintainable. There were technical accidents, but they were eliminated by the crew and the boat continued the hike. These diesel-electric submarines of the USSR like the T-34 and T-55 tanks are simple, reliable and very effective

At 3:21, the passage into the forward torpedo room can be seen. The men working in the forward room were not always free to move about the boat. For example, only one man would be dispatched to the galley to get the food for all the rest. Toilet time was also regulated. The men were allowed to use the toilet on a fixed schedule. The forward torpedo room had a "honey bucket" to be used when one couldn't wait for their toilet time.

I visited this former soviet boat in the harbour of Hamburg as shown. That boat was actually on reconnaissance duty on the eastern seabord of the U.S. during september 11 of 2001, if i remember correctly.

The enlisted men was supposed to have permanent berths, but I don't see them either. I revisited the overview and can't find compartments I have missed. So this leaves me with the conclusion that the bunks were put where there was space, but have been removed to allow guests to move around.

No living compartment at all - turned in a museum. You have the rare chance to see her in full glory! On the other hand, your sub is way more rugged and dirtier - here they've cleaned ours and painted it with fresh paint... looks good but not really genuine.

The sound effects always seem to be a topic that devides my audience - some love it, some hate it. I try to strike a balance, but I will never get it perfect and to everyone's satisfaction.

Becks Hobby Productions I thinks it's nice. Thanks for the video partner. I enjoyed it .

Not a front line sub by any standard.

It's obviously a very capable boat. But the welding and general fit out of piping and cable management looks like sh!t. It looks like a spaghetti of pipes, controls and wiring. I'm not confused by submarines in general, I have been on several Western submarines (Oberon class, Collins, Type 212) and they are much better in those regards.

Thanks for the comment. It really does feel like there are pipes and wires everywhere and in every compartment.

One of the things I should have mentioned, which really impressed me (apart from the double hull) was the access arrangements to the battery compartments. From above. Western submarines require you to enter a tunnel to access the batteries and it's cramped and very hard to reach ones on the ouboard. The Russians by having hatches over the *top* have much easier access, and I was thinking "why the hell didn't we think of that?"
