DSRV
A deep-submergence rescue vehicle (DSRV) is a type of deep-submergence vehicle used for rescue of downed submarines and clandestine missions. While DSRV is the term most often used by the United States Navy, other nations have different designations for their vehicles. List of deep submergence rescue vehicles Australian models ASRV ''Remora'' ("Really Excellent Method Of Rescuing Aussies") was the Australian navy's DSRV. It is based on a diving bell design. Chinese models The People's Republic of China has three Type 925 Dajiang class and three Type 926 class. Each ship is equipped with either two Type 7103 DSRV or one LR7 crewed submersible undersea rescue vehicle. European models France, Norway and the UK share the NATO Submarine Rescue System programme. Italian models Italy operates , equipped with the SRV-300 submersible in a submarine rescue role * The SRV-300, built by Drass-Galeazzi, was delivered in 1999 and can operate up to depth, hosting 12 persons in the ...

Deep-submergence Vehicle
A deep-submergence vehicle (DSV) is a deep-diving crewed submersible that is self-propelled. Several navies operate vehicles that can be accurately described as DSVs. DSVs are commonly divided into two types: research DSVs, which are used for exploration and surveying, and DSRVs (Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle), which can be used for rescuing the crew of a sunken navy submarine, clandestine (espionage) missions (primarily installing wiretaps on undersea communications cables), or both. DSRVs are equipped with docking chambers to allow personnel ingress and egress via a manhole. The real-life feasibility of any DSRV-based rescue attempt is hotly debated, because the few available docking chambers of a stricken submarine may be flooded, trapping the sailors still alive in other dry compartments. The only attempt to rescue a stricken submarine with these so far (the Russian submarine ''Kursk'') ended in failure as the entire crew who survived the explosion had either suffocated ...

Type 925 Submarine Support Ship
The Type 925 Dajiang with NATO reporting name Dajiang, or 大江 in Chinese, meaning Great River, is a type of naval auxiliary ship belonging to the People's Republic of China. Each ship is usually equipped with up to two Type 7103 DSRV class Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicles (DSRVs). The ship is designed to replace the first People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) submarine tender PLANS Mount Tai, and the lead ship of the Dajiang class is the Changxingdao. The Type 925 is a submarine tender that can also be used as a submarine rescue ship, and hence, it is designated as a submarine support ship (Qian-Ting Zhi-Yuan Jian, 潜艇支援舰) by Chinese. Each ship has a crew of 308 sailors and is equipped with an aft helicopter deck and hangars for 2 Z-8 Super Frelon helicopters.

Type 7103 DSRV
The People's Republic of China developed a class of 35-ton deep-submergence rescue vehicle (DSRV) for the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN). It was first tested in 1986 and operational in 1989. The DSRV may perform a rescue at depths up to . Six or 22 survivors could be carried. This suited contemporary PLAN submarines which deployed infrequently and typically to coastal waters. The submarine may also perform salvage work. It has a manipulator arm and a diving chamber for six divers.

Type 926 Submarine Support Ship
Type 926 submarine support ship with NATO reporting name Dalao is a class of submarine rescue and supply ship developed by China for the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN), and as of mid-2014, a total of three are in service. This ship is capable of both replenishing submarines and rescuing submariners in distress. With a displacement of 9500 tons, the Type 926 carries newly designed rescue chambers that are capable of performing rescue missions to a depth of three hundred meters, being able to rescue a maximum of eighteen submariners each dive. One of these ships carries a deep-submergence rescue vehicle (DSRV) imported from the United Kingdom, the LR7, which is a development of the earlier LR5. The LR7 is also capable of rescuing a total of eighteen submariners each dive and the 25-ton DSRV can perform rescue operations at five hundred meters depth and continuously working under water for four days. The rest of the ships carry the successor of the Type 7103 DSRV designed by ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
JS Chihaya
JS ''Chihaya'' (ASR-403) is a submarine rescue ship of Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Development and design She was built as a replacement for the dilapidated . In terms of design, it is said to be an expanded and improved version of the submarine rescue mother ship , and while abolishing the submarine mother ship function, it is strengthening medical equipment. For DSRV operation, the basic configuration of having a moon pool in the center of the hull is the same as the 56AS, but the poop deck has been extended to the vicinity of the bridge structure, and the standard displacement has been increased by 1,800 tons. As a result, the equipment that was previously stored in the exposed part can now be accommodated inside the ship. In addition, attention was paid to high-speed cruising ability so that the vessel can quickly advance to the distress site, a bulbous bow was adopted to reduce wave-making resistance, and a ship bottom closing device was installed at the bot ...

Priz-class Deep-submergence Rescue Vehicle
The Priz class (Project 1855) is a type of Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle (DSRV) operated by the government of Russia. There are known to be at least five vessels of the class, several of which were involved in the failed rescue attempt when the ''Kursk'' sank on 12 August 2000. The Russian word "Priz" (“приз”) means "prize". Specifications The titanium hulled vessels are 13.5 m long, 3.8 m wide and 4.6 m high, with a displacement of 55 tonnes.
