印度唯一现役航母失火 改装至今已历经3次重大事故

维克拉玛蒂亚号航母又双叒叕发生火灾
根据印度媒体消息,4月26日上午,印度海军维克拉玛蒂亚号航空母舰突发火灾,大火随后被控制和扑灭,印度海军在稍后声明之中宣布大火没有对航母作战能力造成影响,1名海军中尉在扑火之中殉职。



印度海军在声明之中并没有透露起火的原因,只是说大火在9点至9点半左右得到控制,没有对航母造成较大的损害,航母仍然可以执行任务。

它的前身是俄罗斯海军戈尔什科夫号航空母舰
维克拉玛蒂亚号航母是印度从俄罗斯购买的中型航空母舰,它原来是俄罗斯海军戈尔什科夫号航空母舰,属于基辅级最后一艘,后来印度海军购入进行改装,维克拉玛蒂亚号航母舰长253米,满载排水量45300吨,可以搭载大约30架舰载战斗机,包括24架米格-29K战斗机和6架卡-28反潜直升机,舰员(包括航空人员)1600人,蒸汽动力,最高航速30节,续航能力7000海里/18节。
从维克拉玛蒂亚号航母历史来看,各种事故几乎始终伴随着这艘航母,1992年戈尔什科夫号航空母舰在码头维护的时候,内部就曾经发生火灾,造成舰艇一度无法出航执行任务,1994年戈尔什科夫号航空母舰好不容易完成维护和修理,再次出航,结果推进系统发生爆炸,几乎摧毁了整修航母动力系统,当时俄罗斯经济不振,难以再次维修戈尔什科夫号航母,索性把它退役,由于缺乏维护和保管,舰上许多贵重部件又被拆除一空。

黑烟滚滚的维克拉玛蒂亚号航母,显现它的动力系统不容乐观
新世纪印度海军寻求新一代航母,俄罗斯提出可以将戈尔什科夫号航空母舰“无偿”赠送给印度,条件必须由俄罗斯船厂改装,购买俄罗斯舰载机,当时俄方报价10亿美元,印度以为捡了个大便宜,结果大家都知道了,为了改装维克拉玛蒂亚号航空母舰,印度耗费超过23亿美元。
2012年维克拉玛蒂亚号航母改装完毕,第一次出海试航,结果推进系统再次出现问题,8部锅炉有7部停止工作,航母不得不中止海试,对推进系统进行检修,经过一番努力,维克拉玛蒂号航母终于完成所有海试科目,返回印度,结果在路上又有1部锅炉出现问题,航母不得不降低航速,一路磕磕绊绊回到印度,2016年维克拉玛蒂亚号航母在基地清理下水道的时候,发生有害气体泄露,又造成人员伤亡。

污迹斑斑的维克拉玛蒂亚号航母甲板,平时维护难言到位
f2fr-hvvuiyp2604662.jpg

米格-29K的状况也欠佳
除了航母本身问题之外,维克拉玛蒂亚号航母舰载机也不让人省心,印度海军发现米格-29K机体不够坚固,难以承受着舰产生的巨大冲击力,故障率较高,另外发动机可靠性也非常低,从而影响飞机完好率,难以保证有足够的飞机执行任务。
从整体上来看,维克拉玛蒂亚号航母事故频繁既有舰艇本身设计欠佳的因素,也有人员维护不力、损管不善等方面原因,这些问题如果不能得到有效解决,将会对印度海军作战能力乃至未来发展都会产生非常不利的影响。(作者署名:小飞猪观察)

India FP Staff Apr 26, 2019 18:55:05 IST






An Indian Navy officer died on Friday in a fire that was reported on board aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya. The officer who lost his life has been identified as Lt Cdr DS Chauhan.

The fire was reported on board INS Vikramaditya when it was entering the harbour in Karwar in Karnataka.
An official release said, "Whilst the fire was brought under control, the officer suffered loss of consciousness owing to the smoke and fumes during the firefighting efforts. He was immediately evacuated to the Naval Hospital at Karwar, INHS Patanjali for medical attention. However, the officer could not be revived.

Authorities have constituted a board of inquiry to investigate the circumstances of the incident.
In 2014, former navy chief Admiral DK Joshi had resigned from his post after a string of operational incidents. In 2013, a dockside blast in Mumbai had killed all 18 aboard a submarine, raising concerns over India's ageing fleet and crew training.

印度唯一一艘航母“维克拉玛蒂亚”号又出事故。
据新德里电视台报道,今天上午,“维克拉玛蒂亚”号在进入印度卡纳塔卡邦卡瓦港湾时发生火灾,一名参与救火工作的海军军官死亡。

印度海军在一份声明中指出,死者身份为海军中校指挥官乔汉(DS Chauhan),20岁出头,上个月刚刚结婚。火灾发生后,乔汉参与到了救火过程中,待火势得到控制,乔汉因吸入烟雾而失去了意识,被送到医院之后,已经去世。

声明强调,印度军方“迅速采取行动”,令火势得到控制,以防止航母作战能力遭严重损害。
目前起火原因不明,印军正在进行调查。
“维克拉玛蒂亚号”号是2013年印军从俄罗斯购买了的一艘二手航母。该航母在北德文斯克造船厂进行了大规模改装后于2013年11月交付印度海军,造价23亿美元。

但印度这艘仅有的航母,近年来事故不断。
早在交付给印军之前,2012年6月1日,“维克拉玛蒂亚号”号在俄罗斯进行改造时,该航母锅炉房发生失火。
2016年6月10日,“维克拉玛蒂亚”号航母在印度西南部进行维护时,又发生“毒气泄漏”事故,造成2死2伤,死者中包括一名印度海军人员。
而近年来印度海军屡屡陷入安全事故之困。其中伤亡最惨重的一起,要数2013年8月14日,印度海军的“辛杜拉克沙克”号潜艇在孟买的海军船坞内发生爆炸沉没,导致18名艇员丧生。最后在耗时1年花费4000万美元后,潜艇终于打捞出水。

The only aircraft carrier in India, the Vikramatia, had an accident.

According to New Delhi TV, this morning, the "Vikramatia" fire broke out when entering the Kava Harbor in Karnataka, India, and a naval officer involved in the firefighting work died.

The Indian Navy pointed out in a statement that the deceased was the commander of the Navy lieutenant colonel, DS Chauhan, who was in his early 20s and had just married last month. After the fire broke out, Qiao Han participated in the fire fighting process. When the fire was controlled, Qiao Han lost consciousness because of inhaling smoke. After being sent to the hospital, he died.

The statement stressed that the Indian military "quickly took action" to control the fire to prevent serious damage to the aircraft carrier's combat capability.

The cause of the current fire is unknown, and the Indian Army is investigating.

The Vikramatia was a second-hand aircraft carrier purchased by the Indian Army from Russia in 2013. The aircraft carrier was delivered to the Indian Navy in November 2013 after a large-scale modification at the North Devinsk Shipyard, costing US$2.3 billion.

But the only aircraft carrier in India has been in constant accidents in recent years.

As early as before delivery to the Indian Army, on June 1, 2012, when the "Vikramatia" was rebuilt in Russia, the aircraft carrier boiler room had a fire.

On June 10, 2016, when the "Vikramatia" aircraft carrier was maintained in southwestern India, a "poison gas leak" accident occurred, resulting in 2 deaths and 2 injuries. The deceased included an Indian Navy personnel.

In recent years, the Indian Navy has repeatedly fallen into a security accident. Among them, the most serious casualties, on August 14, 2013, the Indian Navy’s "Sindurak Shaq" submarine exploded in the naval dock in Mumbai, killing 18 crew members. Finally, after spending $40 million a year, the submarine finally salvaged the water.
