Bilans otwarcia cz I



Okręt podwodny typu Okoń 1904-1905 (3 szt.)
Pierwsza jednostka w bilansie otwarcia. Jest to pierwszy w naszej flocie okręt podwodny z napędem klasycznym tj. silnikami Diesla i motorami elektrycznymi. Nie ukrywam że, konstrukcja jest oparta o brytyjskie okręty typu A. Trudno zresztą się dziwić, dzięki pracom Hollanda, Anglicy w owych czasach absolutnie przodowali w tym zakresie. To „małpowanie” nawet nieźle mi się udało, bo uzyskałem parametry (szybkość, zasięg) lepsze od oryginału. Okręcik jest niewielki i przeznaczony do działań wyłącznie na Bałtyku. Typ liczył 4 jednostki oddane do użytku w latach 1904-1905. Założyłem, że Wielką Wojnę przeżyły 3.

Torpedowiec typu Tygrys 1906-1909 (6 szt.)
Następny okręt w bilansie otwarcia. Duży, szybki, silnie uzbrojony torpedowiec, górujący wszystkimi parametrami nad ówczesnymi obcymi okrętami tej klasy. Wielkością i siłą dorównywał mniejszym niszczycielom (np. brytyjskiego typu Cricket z lat 1908-1909}, a szybkością je przewyższał.. Dla przykładu niemieckie torpedowce typu A-56 (tego samego typu był ORP Krakowiak z realnej PMW) z lat 1917-1918, przy 330-335 t wyporności były uzbrojone w 2-3 działa 88 mm, 1-2 wyrzutni torpedowych i miały prędkość 26-28 w. Jak widać, nasze ok. 10 lat starsze, ale przy nich „nie pękają” Jedną z zalet okrętu jest stosunkowo wysoka wolna burta, co daje bardzo dobrą dzielność morską, jak na jednostkę tej klasy i wielkości W latach 1906-1909 zostało oddanych do użytku 8 okrętów tego typu, założyłem, że Wielką Wojnę przeżyło 6. Są to wprawdzie jednostki w wieku 9-12 lat, ale kilka lat mogą jeszcze z powodzeniem posłużyć.

Okręt podwodny typu Łosoś 1906-1908 (4 szt.)
Okręt w pewnym sensie będący odpowiednikiem brytyjskiego typu C (i trochę do niego podobny ;)). Jednak tak, jak w przypadku Okonia przewyższa go osiągami. Łosoś jest pierwszym naszym okrętem podwodnym wyposażonym w radiostację. W latach 1906-1908 oddano 4 jednostki, wszystkie przeżyły Wielką Wojnę.

Torpedowiec typu Ryś 1913-1914 (4 szt.)

Torpedowce te są rozwinięciem wcześniejszego typu Tygrys z lat 1906-1909. W porównaniu z nimi są nieco większe, troszkę silniej uzbrojone, a przede wszystkim dysponują większą prędkością i zasięgiem. W latach 1913-1914 zbudowano 4 jednostki, wszystkie przetrwały Wielką Wojnę.

Tender okrętów podwodnych typu Giewont 1884 (1 szt.)
Teraz jednostka, z którą będziemy musieli się niebawem pożegnać z powodu jej mocno podeszłego wieku, ale uczono mnie szacunku dla starszych, więc nie mogę jej pominąć.  Okręt został zbudowany w roku 1884 jako tender torpedowców. Ponieważ ostatnie torpedowce, które mieściły się jeszcze na jego platformie ładunkowej zostały wycofane w roku 1902, został on zaadaptowany na tender okrętów podwodnych. Na platformie załadowczej mieszczą się 3 okręty podwodne typu Okoń, lub inne jednostki o długości do 35 m. Jednostka posiada rozliczne funkcje. Przede wszystkim służy jako zaplecze mieszkalne, gospodarcze i techniczne dla małych okrętów podwodnych, aktualnie dotyczy to tylko typu Okoń. Może transportować okręty podwodne na dalsze odległości np. do kolonii lub na oddalony od baz obszar operacyjny. Może także podnosić na swój pokład okręty podwodne w celu dokonania drobnych napraw, kontroli stanu kadłuba i jego konserwacji. W przypadku awarii jest w stanie podnieść okręt podwodny, który osiadł na dnie lub po prostu nie może się sam wynurzyć; dotyczy to oczywiście ograniczonych głębokości. Do realizacji tej ostatniej funkcji posiada na pokładzie ekipę nurków. Ponieważ okręty podwodne typu Okoń zostaną w najbliższym czasie z uwagi na swój wiek i zużycie skreślone z listy floty, taki sam los czeka nasz tender. Jest już za stary na to, aby jakakolwiek przebudowa była opłacalna.

Niszczyciel typu Zawierucha 1904 (5 szt.)
Najstarsze z zachowanych niszczycieli. Za ich odpowiednik można uznać brytyjski Eden (1904) z długiej i zróżnicowanej serii typu River. Nasze jednak charakteryzują się silniejszym uzbrojeniem, większą prędkością i zasięgiem. Są to – o ile mi wiadomo – pierwsze na świecie niszczyciele wyposażone w działo 102 mm. Posiadają nowoczesną siłownię z turbinami parowymi, a kotły opalane są ropą. W latach 1904-1907 zbudowano 8 jednostek, z czego Wielką Wojnę przeżyło 5.
