South Korean Corvette Sunk By Israeli Dolphin Class Submarine


During the recent skirmish between North and South Korea, the South Korean Corvette was sunk, as it has been revealed by a torpedo.

Consider the South Korean ship's specifications:

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

Speed: Maximum 32 knots (59 km/h)
Cruising 15 knots (28 km/h)[2]

Armament: 4 × Harpoon missiles,
2 × OTO Melara(76mm)/62 compact cannons
2 × Breda 40mm/70 cannons,
6 × Mark 46 torpedoes,
12 × Mark 9 depth charges [3][2]

This was a fast ship, and in combat would presumably be:

moving at full speed,

and maneuvering to avoid enemy fire AND possible torpedos.

The Cheonan was sunk by a torpedo.

Consider that the North Korean ship could not have been the source of the torpedo.

The North Korean Captain would have to calculate where the Cheosan would be at the precise moment the torpedos hit.

The Cheosan was capable of almost 60 km/hr, and maneuverable.

Unless the South Korean Captain was suicidal, a torpedo hit from several thousand yards off would be the wildest stroke of luck.

A submarine had to be BETWEEN the fighting ships.

It was close enough to fire the tropedo, have it arm and strike the Cheosan.

Israel operates the Dolphin Class submarine, reparation gifts to Israel from Germany (for the Holocaust).

They fire 2 types of torpedos:

Armament: 6 × 21 in (533 mm) torpedo tubes,
4 x 25.5 inch (650 mm) diameter torpedo tubes

The Israelis are based out of Cam Ranh Bay Vietnam. They are there to train Vietnamese crews who are purchasing 6 Soviet submarines.

The Vietnamese use Communist equipment.

Here are the types used and available for sale from China:

324mm Yu-7 · ET-52

350mm APR-3E

450mm Yu-2

533mm Yu-8 · Yu-6 · C43 · Yu-5 · Yu-4 · Yu-3 · Yu-1 · ET32 · ET34 · ET36 · Type 53-65 · VA-111 Shkval

650mm Type 65


Rocket-propelled CY-1 · CY-2 · CY-3 · CJ-1


Note that they also use the same diameter of torpedo as the Israeli Dolphin Class.

So theoretically, the Dolphin Class can fire Chinese torpedos.

North Korea also uses Chinese Torpedos.

Israel has recently accused North Korea of giving Syria WMD's.

It is entirely possible that the Cheonan was cut in two by a VA-111 Shkval - a very fast torpedo/missile:



[link to en.wikipedia.org]

"Launched from 533 mm torpedo tubes, the VA-111 exits the tube at 50 knots (93 km/h). Shortly afterwards, its liquid-fuel rocket ignites and propels it to speeds of up to 200 knots (370 km/h). Some reports indicate that speeds of 250+ knots may be achieved, and that work on a 300-knot (560 km/h) version was underway.[2] The rocket engine uses the combination of high test peroxide and kerosene; the propellant tanks contain about 1.5 tons of hydrogen peroxide and 500 kg of kerosene.[3]

Guidance was nonexistent in initial designs, as the missile was intended for nuclear warhead delivery. Later designs reportedly include terminal guidance and conventional warheads of 210 kg (460 lb).[4]"

Normal torpedos would be expected to knock a hole in the hull of a ship and cause fires and blast damage.

As you can see, the Cheosan was cut in two:

Israel has set up North Korea in hopes of dragging Obama kicking and screaming into a war.
