Some Chinese source says that these subs were contracted to use Germany MTU396 engines. however Gemany refused to sell the engine to China after the pandemic, and Thailand wasn't satisfied with Chinese engine. Thus the deal was cancelled.

Thats the same story I heard, the Chinese were trying to get them to take Chinese clones of the MTU engines but the Thais were demanding the original German engines be provided. Apparently relates to a contract MTU made with China before Tiananmen Square where they agreed to supply a specific number of marine engines but since then they have refused to extend the deal due to sanctions and China has now used up the contracted number of engines MTU was to supply. The engines were also supposed to be for civilian application but China stuck them in its subs and destroyers making them dual-use technology and so subject to military sanctions. The engine dispute isnt new, been running for a couple of years, also some reports the Chinese clone wasnt very reliable and there had been a number of failures of them in the Chinese navy.

@tanapontux6242 11 ай бұрын
Quality comments here! Would add that the requirement for MTU engine was specified in the contract so no one is willing to sign the acceptance that obviously breaches the contract. I think the contract also specified that the boat needed to be installed with MTU396 or comparable engine that had been certified and USED in submarine. The thing is, even PLAN boats were all installed with MTUs. The Chinese clone has never been put on any sub before.

@@watcherzero5256 China was licensed to build MTU 369 engines for their own submarines, but they are not authorized to export to third party.

Hey, I'm a big fan from Thailand. The royal Thai navy wants about 8 new frigates, some submarines and a covette (to replace the one that sunk in a storm). We want China to build 3 Yuan class(S26T) with a German MTU396 engine for us and then we will modify them to use western weapons. The thing is, China has already taken our money and also finished building the hull, but then they suddenly come to tell us that Germany sanctioned them to buy the MTU engine for the military, then offered us a Chinese-built MTU engine, which we refused and we wanted our money back because they failed the contract but we got denied. So now the royal Thai navy is trying to force them to switch that submarine we don't want to a frigate to fill 8 frigates we want.
@Tawan175
@Tawan175 11 ай бұрын
Also, at first the navy wanted those 8 frigates to be European or Korean or American ships or maybe order a hull from the Chinese and then put the western equipment in it as plan B. Now it seems now we are gonna get a Chinese frigate that was not in the plan, so now politicians are piss and want to cancel the submarine program.

Actually the alternative China offered is not Chinese-built MTU, they are not licensed to exported to third party. What China offered is CHD620, a variant of licensed built Deutz-Mannheim TBD620V12. That is a unproven solution and required significant engineering changes on the current S26T designs. Pakistan , who also has major licensed built Type 039A submarine project underway , should has accepted the engine change since there is no other option and their submarine is high priority

Any chance of doing a video on the Chinese navy using active sonar on those Australian navy divers? It happened about a week ago when HMAS Toowoomba got some fishing nets tangled around its screws in Japanese waters. Some clearance divers were in the middle of cutting the nets off when a Chinese warship approached. The Australian ship continually broadcasted to surrounding shipping that they had divers in the water and to refrain from sonar usage, but the Chinese kept pinging away. Two sailors got "minor injuries" (whatever that means). Thought you might be interested.

I really hope the ULSV don't get too big or expensive. I have two primary concerns about them 1. Them getting captured as they lack a crew to fight off boarders. 2. The lack of damage control. Without a crew you can't have miracles like the Samuel B. Roberts. Even a small fire if automatic fire suppression fails can lead to a total failure on a vehicles packed with rocket motors due to the VLS and rolling frame systems.

The waters around Thailand are very shallow, commonly at around 50 meters and the Chinese Sub is quite large for a diesel sub with twice the displacement of a German 212A or Swedish Gotland class. It probably should not have been ordered in the first place. The delay had to do with the engine, was supposed to be a German engine but they were not allowed to sell it if was installed in a Chinese Sub and the Thai did not wan't a Chinese Engine replacement. To make things even more Ironic the Original "German Engine" as it turns out was to be licensed built in China anyway.

Thailand is apparently figuring out how to get away from this Chinese submarine contract without penalty or damaging the relation with China. Thailand has purchase one frigate from DSME , South Korea , which is HTMS Bhumibol Adulyadej(F471) ; purchasing second Korean frigate was postponed in 2019 that concentrating resource to the submarine project. Now the submarine deal is aground, resuming follow on hulls of Korean frigates make more sense. Remember Chinese Naval AAW weapons and CMS is not compatible with Thailand Navy, Integrating western CMS on a Chinese hull is very unlikely nowadays.

The S26 has been criticized about its suitability from the beginning. Tactically, it's being said that Gulf of Thailand is relatively shallow, so it is questionable about how much actually the RTN needs the subs. While strategically, these subs are Chinese made (obviously), but the problem is that almost all of Thailand's neighboring countries are having issues with the Chinese activities in South China Sea, so if there is a war break out, even Thailand stays neutral, there will be problems with parts and maintenance supply definitely. These are what we Thai question about the subs, not just my own. The previous government, with the lead of Gen. Prayut Chan-O-Cha, the junta of the the latest coup, the project was pushing forward against these questions. Some even believed that he just tried to keep buying in other branches of armed forces to not go against him (RTN did a failed coup attempt against Field Marshal Phibunsongkharm in 1951, which made it become the most looked over armed force branch ever since). Then the pandemic hit, China relationship with the west deteriorated, creates new problem is that Germany wouldn't supply the MTU engine for these subs (if I remember correctly, they claimed that the engine is only supplied for China domestically use, but not re-exports along with the subs). China tried to persuade Thai gov to accept them to supply the subs with their domestically made engines instead. I kinda losing track after this. I'm not sure that did they accept that option or not. Or it was stuck in the mid build, and forced Thai gov to seek for the MTU engines supply by its own. This is probably why the build was late Now, the current government, which is led by technically middle-right wing, is also under criticized by the oppositions which led by left wing party, which has policies against the armed forces (because they all joined the coup) about the switching decision.

I'm assuming that the divers were showing the diving flag, so to be pinged was either deliberate, or poor management on the Chinese side. This occurred in international waters. The only information we have of the result is 'Some minor injury.' I certainly would not like to be pinged underwater.

IIRC the person in the green shirt is the one who adjusts the gross weight in the catapult launch system for proper pressures on launches. Get that wrong and you can either get it right, get it wrong low and have a soft cat shot which can cause the aircraft to crash into the water for lack of speed, or tear up the gear if you have it set way too high. I was USAF not Navy but I did watch a bit on YT about carrier ops and I'm pretty sure that is that person's job.

It would be extremely complicated and time consuming to do that for any boarding party, if its even possible. Let alone do it before the navy realizes in probably a couple minutes and you have a marine or navy SEAL/SWCC response team blasting your ass. Even a car is difficult and requires skills to hotwire it, if these new ones even can be hotwired...real life isnt GTA5. These unmanned ships probably arent even going to leave the general vicinity of manned ships, any boarders probably wont even be able to break down the door to the control room or handle whatever onboard defense systems they end up putting on these before security teams are already well en route. And every major warship has a lot of security options on board

The Thailand submarines were suspended due to Germany won't export their engines for the design and Thailand also don't want Chinese engines as replacement either. So they settled for frigates instead. Definitely not "tofu" construction which is a stupid bias in this day and age.

You talking about the two groups not might making home in time. Doesnt US Navy have a thing, where they can fly a fresh crew (or part) to some of those ships? Like if, for example, Genrald R. Ford group, visiting an friendly/allied port where new crew can come on board and the crew that was on board could get flown home? I can understand it for the reason of the equipment and ships as they would need some maintenance as well

Navy does hot pump crew switches, so to speak, with Subs and some forward deployed ships - minesweepers in Bahrain for example. A complete rotation of a deployed carrier crew would be quite an undertaking. Swapping a complete air wing would be problematic on its own. Without thinking all the issues through, feels like a total clusterfk, probably why it hasn't been done (AFAIK).

@@jeffbeck8993 That I can understand, I just wondering if they had that in planned. I think Royal Danish Navy is able to do it with few of deployed crew. Like if one of them needs to get home for health problems or family problems (If they are allowed for the family) I do think I had seen it while it was allowed to film from one of our frigates during the counter piracy at the Horn of Africa

@@Danspy501st Ah, ok, I was referring to the "full crew" swap part of your comment. US Navy prefers vast majority of the crew have enough time to complete the full deployment, which obviously reduces the logistical demand of moving people around the world for routine transfers, and obviously facilitates teamwork cohesion and continuity during real-world operations on deployment. During times of conflict, this can, and has, resulted in Operational Hold policies for military service members (OPHOLDs) to remain on station or, in some cases, on active duty despite the end of the contract service time. Having said that, routine transfers do happen. People, mail, parts, cargo, etc., are flown to staging points in overseas theaters waiting further transfer to ships at sea via air or other support ships, or directly if the ship is sked to pull in somewhere that makes sense. For the Gulf, Bahrain was a key logistics and transfer point, with a dedicated squadron for this purpose, in addition to air assets from the ships themselves, if applicable. On the flip side, if a Sailor is in the process of transferring to a ship that's on the other side of the world on deployment but is nearing the end, or in the process of steaming back home, Navy will determine a cut-off point and just keep collecting Sailors at the home port until the ship gets back.

It's possible the Chinese wanted those nearly completed subs for themselves to bolster their own defensive capabilities. If true, it's also possible that China approached Thailand with the sub-for-frigates swap proposal instead of the other way around. China is rightly worried about the west's increasing focus on countering Chinese military and political ambitions in the Indo-Pacific region. The swap would be a way to almost instantly increase their sub force by two hulls, a not insignificant improvement.
