Lead ocean-going salvage ship Igor Belousov (illustrated) will be delivered to Russian Navy in 2013, reported ITAR-TASS referring to Mikhail Aleksandrov, acting director general of Admiralteyskie Verfi shipyard.

After shipwrecks of SSN Kursk in Aug 2000 and bathyscaph A-28 Priz at the Far East, experts have been permanently insisting on the necessity to equip Russian Navy with advanced salvage systems. Both accidents demonstrated that the Navy has no ships equipped with deep-sea salvage systems.

Construction of ocean-going salvage ships was included into Russian Navy Shipbuilding Development Program. A project 21300 salvage ship has displacement of 5,000 tons and speed up to 15 knots. The ship will be equipped with a manned submersible, remotely-controlled submersibles, deep-sea armors, and diving system designed by Lazurit design bureau (Nizhny Novgorod) capable to work at depths down to 500 meters.

According to Aleksandrov, the shipyard also plans to deliver Project 636.6 diesel electric submarine to the Navy in 2013; the sub is being currently built for Black Sea Fleet.
