Japan: We don't want ☢️ power, lets buy LNG instead Russia: Nuclear powered delivery of LNG for Tanaka, sign here

Russia always oversell and under delivers. Like most governments. Lots of icebreakers have used the bubbler system. They also use large tanks of water that they can pump from side to side to make the Shiprock. As far as open water capabilities, the wind class icebreakers that were built in the late 40s were made for North Atlantic escort duty. They weren’t the best riding. I know I spent two years on one, but we were in several hurricanes and had waves of 25+ foot and did just fine. We were also even with those small ships under 300 feet 68 feet wide capable of going through 15 foot thick ice. And the ship was tough enough that it lasted more than 40 years of continuous service going to the Arctic and Antarctic, and also breaking ice on the great lakes during the winter

Wait i thoght we were trying to save the ice, so we are trying to break it up? Someone needs to tell Gretta!

"2 Soccer fields long and the height of a multi-story building". With measurements this vague, who needs lies?

I'm not a hater of people that populate countries that have political issues with my United States. If Russia did something that worked better than ours I'm not feeling any hate. This elevates the standards and that isn't bad in my mind. Some competitions actually help more people than they hurt.

Chemical Reaction???? I thought it was nuclear? Nuclear reactions are not chemical reactions...

Protection from running aground haha its designed to ground itself on the thick ice and fall though it 😄

If it is built the same way they are planning it then that will be some incredible ships!! Hope they pull it off and have great success with them!!

It'll be fine until the entire arctic is radioactive.

I'm going to keep my eyes on this one. VERY impressive!

Chemical reaction!!! 🤣 You don’t know what you’re talking about bro!!

Wait…I thought the ice was all melting 😂

Great ship builder's 💪

FFS use metrics, just like rest of the world....hurts my brain to trying to convert foots and soccerfields and washing machines and toyota corollas and african elephants what your freedom units seem to be....and si illogical convertions between units.

The Oceans are boiling why the need for an ice breaker.

This ship is a beauty. Leave it to the Russians, they are very capable!

No thrusters for the bow, looks antiquated already, go get em Russia.

Altissima tecnología SOVIÉTICA

Just think of how good the lodging is on her as well? Food and other activities, which is internal, they will not be able to stop, unless there's a massive space which in summer months up north allows the ship to stop and allow the ship mates to get off at the north pole etc. ⚓⚓👌👌✌✌👍👍

Incredible

That's nuttin'. I invented a super cheap ultra reliable ice breaker. A 60 pound sledge in my hand. Busts up all the ice i need. And whats really cool (pun intended) is I can pick up the smaller pieces and make margarita's after I get done.

Also they should have propeller protectors

Who knew nuclear reactors were chemicals reacting...learn sum new erryday

Put a laser on the front. Ice problem solved.

This application should be used for all shipping

Why not build cargo subs and go under the ice?

The new Leader class looks exciting to my untrained eyes. I hope we see it sooner than later and lives up to its specifications.

Interesting , Thank You . I hope it works, and can be built

But, however, chemical reactions can lead to nuclear reactions though!

Canada better get building similar ships and securing our northern passage and make it economically viable for taxation to countries wanting to use it.

smash through that Ice at 10-12 knots,.. are you kidding...

8:18 😂

what is the name of the ship?

Very cool. Russians are very versatile and very good at adapting. I think ballasts as used by modern US Navy would be immensely useful 😁

I hope Canada and the US collaborate on fleet of modern, powerful icebreakers. Together, they can ensure the Northwest Passage becomes a viable trade route as climate change opens the Arctic Ocean to near year-round shipping.

Oh I thought it was global warming that was why the ice is breaking up. Humm?

NEWEST RUSSIAN Nuclear Icebreaker Work? I'll believe it when I see it sailing to the pole! And for now I believe in this sailing as much as in their last successful landing on the moon...

Global warming has melted all of the ice across the Arctic Ocean rendering ice breakers irrelevant and unnecessary. There hasn’t been any ice since the year 2000. Lol! 😂

Awesome !! uraaaa!

Crazy how this footage shows geo engineering spraying at the North Pole region. Stripes in the sky that far north?! Like wtf

Nuclear reactions NOT chemical reactions. I stopped watching at that point. No one checks this?

Dangerous how the public can have nuclear power

Why they don't just have a boiling hot huge shower 🚿 spraying in front of them? Or a heated blade like front.. ❔ Or two of them large metal screw wheel things facing each other along the water line @ (the Bow? isit) the front of the ship so it could "climb" up over the blockage an use it's weight crashing bk down ² break up the pack

لمصر متأكد بعد ضربها عبدها في كونها وهو و نحنا عشاش صشقار سودان سودان

The guy at 12:22 sure looks like putin nephew

Bravo Russia!!!!

Jelouski Ukronazis are plenty here!

Gata love mother Russia.. 😎😎😎😎😎💪💪💪💪💪💪

This is NOT nuclear! This is a Chemical reaction!!

Steam Powered, nuclear 'fired'. Still in the Steam Power Age. not coal but Nuclear Heat boils water = steam.

Pretty graphics, no boat !

Nothing against the Russian people. Russia hasn't always had the best record with nuclear powerplants. Mobile or stationary.

15:19 sure no power is one thing, what happens it it capsizes is it still a fool proof reactor?

The leader should have the option of pumping water in the bow. Plus other things to be invincible.

Here is the real biggest icebraker whole the world , russia icebraker

You need to talk more slowly and clearly if you want to be understood by most English speakers. I have lived in the UK for all but 5 years of my life and I struggled to keep up with what you were saying.

No problem. Bad drunk workers and nuclear power. good times. pass the chernobyl

Use CGS (centimeter, gram, second) system. who care for feet, OK?

and where can we see a real ice braker? not pictures I mean

I WANT IT!

So, they do not have it; all they can show is some testing facility and a desktop ornament. They're full of talk again.

Designing the latest and greatest future mega ice breaking ships of the future is a curious endeavor to me. From a practical perspective, and obviously including monetary considerations, from all the chatter coming from peer reviewed studies written on recycled materials, and notarized with the artistically relevant and specifically designed logo made from mounds of material one could find practically blind folded waltzing through a local grazing prairie recently occupied by the most elite bovine specimens in the Northern Hemisphere. Aside from being distracted by the clever and humiliating contraptions strapped to the backs of the poor sheep in the pen over that are connected to their anuses to capture any methane, and you can assist the 2 gravely injured Red Tailed Hawks that were accidentally lacerated by the 130 foot tall eye sore that is spinning and humming just above you. Hopefully the noise pollution won’t interfere with your equilibrium so you can get into your best Flo Jo style “run for your life” routine and get to your Prius. It’s almost inevitable at this point that you could not help but say to yourself…..what exactly is going on around here? Despite all this greenery and enormous and endless amounts of capital being pilfered….. I mean invested to combat the next ice age, wait….that’s right, we’re not in the early to mid 70’s. I meant the warming of the planet by humans ourselves and apparently sheep and bovines and other farm animals plus the rampaging SUV’s and small private jets and 15, 8 cylinder limousines that are running nonstop with the air conditioning on full blast waiting for powerful individuals to exit the building after an exhausting 5 hours of ranting and shaming everyone who paid big bucks to watch the individual speak on conservation and reducing pollution and your carbon footprint of inexcusable sizes and how much they need to lead by example…….which will remain their little secret that they don’t. But regardless of this…..we must ponder the reasons such enormous amounts of money are being wasted to develop a behemoth of a ship that will be capable of breaking through ice fields that seem to be endless and are so thick that they must be maintained before the ice gets so thick that even a larger ship could not breach. Why I ask, why completely flush hard earned money down the toilet?? A titanic floating machine of these dimensions and thickness will simply not be necessary, for the road we are told that we’re heading down will not require any machinery for a purpose or reason that will not plague mankind anymore.

ess

Well it's way uglier than the older soviet breakers but hey! If it works. They should paint it orange like a stinking castle like they used to do though

A nuclear ice breaker ? What if it capsizes ?

Global warming.

This project is stalled. No funding and no ability to fully self develop tech.

No need for these ships, the arctic will be ice free according to noble laureate Al Gore.

live

Seems like a waste of money considering the way the climate is heading.

Russia is a great power 💪

Would need more than 161HP (120KW) of power, would need like 161,000HP. Please learn the difference between a decimal point and a comma; decimal points separate whole numbers from fractional numbers and commas are used to separate number groups such as 161,000.

Russia is the best. China is better. But Russia is the best.

awesome. Northern route to avoid sanctions. criminal mentality 😂

Russia always had the best weapons in the world until we saw them try to take over Ukraine

If this ship is anything like other things Russia has done than it most likely can’t handle half of what they claim it can. Russia is very well known for lies and failures.

Looks like a disaster waiting to happen if it ever gets built.

Haha Russia doesn’t have the money to fund this project. There nuclear subs are in disrepair. There only aircraft carriers was built before the Cold War. There flag ship destroyer caught on fire and sunk. It was so poorly built, that they could not use communications and radar at the same time.

If this is as good as the rest of Russias stuff, it will be held together by tape a chewing gum.

But do they have a plan for the undead?

Ruzzians are not leading in the icebreaker space 🙄

Russian propaganda

[] IT'S SO FUNNY HOW THESE SHIP'S FINANCE THE INFORMATION WE PAY FOR, "IN REGARDS THE EARTH ENVIRONMENT CHANGE" .. IF THEY CAN"T SURVIVE AT THE CARIBBEAN WITH THAT ... BARREL O' RUM, and the tiniest teEn AMEN KJV* Upper Canada

There’s plenty of Russophobic NAFO trolls 🧌 in the comments.. 😅
