"3 October 2024, Alexander Obukhov. The main engine is being disassembled due to water getting inside the engine. The turbine was disassembled, the compensator was removed, and a search is underway for the hole through which water was getting inside."
thx
here is a better translation than the app I used, which appeared to have butchered it a little

Thank you, for your translation. Very much appreciated.

GUR … or just a drunken Russian sailor trying to “fix things” with a screwdriver.
Salty water, new engine
Salty water, +fuel, +oil turned to non-lubricating sludge ...
As a marine mechanic, i can confirm leaving a screwdriver in a motor is bad
As a nurse, I can confirm that it is bad to leave a screwdriver in an engine.
@@noidea6425 🤣👍
That was terrible translation. The wire(screwdriver) was showing the hole in the water separator. it is just poor construction of the engine or faulty equipment
@@noidea6425 As transgender sheep farmer, I can confirm that putting anything where it shouldn't be, can be very painful.
I'm inclined to believe some Russian sailor didn't want to go to sea (whether to chase girls in port or simply avoid Ukrainian sea drones) and used a two dollar tool to disable a multimillion dollar warship.
Baltic Sea...would never meet any Ukrainian sea drones. Apparently Ukrainians are bored with only sinking the Black Sea fleet
I'm also wondering if this engine was done in by lazy or careless maintenance rather than overt sabotage.
@@user-ul8dx7co8j 😁😆😂🤣
@@MyFiddlePlayerwhat kind of maintenance involves drilling a small hole into the cylinder? 😂
@@Minerals333 that was a water separator valve, corrosion caused it most likely
Minesweeper? Barely knew her!
they are stealing vacuum cleaners now?
That 's an antique from an earlier naval age.
Much awaited, much appreciated excellent insights as always from you.
cheers, thanks for watching
Screwdriver = hole
Отверстие - hole
Отвертка - screwdriver
Thanks for the clarification.
When the subtitles say "A train is coming", it should be saying "We are looking for the hole".
ohhh he just means hole! I thought he was meaning someone used a screwdriver to just poke a hole lool
@@suchomimus9921 there's a full correct transcript from fennoman in the comments a few minutes ago
Doesn't make much difference what made the hole though 🤣
I love those subtitles....those made me giggle...
lol yeah they arent the best
Admiral Muffin on the job!
So someone slipped into the engineering spaces of a warship, and severely crippled the engine with a single hole. Russia is such a joke.
Not as much as the UK government
They have the Iranian level of protection of their military items.
They'll try and sweep it under the carpet.
Not enough likes on your comment.....lmao
“Deeper and deeper.”
Thanks for the report.
Soo, at the start of the war Ukraine had a decent army, good air defenses, an air-force and basically no navy. Going by proportional losses, the part of the Russian military that has suffered the most, is somehow the Navy? Couldn't make this shit up.
Water ingestion into a running engine requires a complete engine tear down at the very least, more then likely it requires a new engine.
It blew the living hell out of my inboard when the heatexchanger ruptured sendig cold lake water into the hot engine.
Greetings Suchomimus, yes that engine seems surely out of commission no doubt. Interesting that the Ukrainians found the perfect collaborators for tinkering with it.
Strike on all fronts. Never turn your back, and always move forward. Nice work by the Ukrainians here.
Thanks again for your report Suchomimus.

Glory to God,
Victory for Ukraine,

I believe he is just pointing out a hole, not that someone has poked a hole using a screwdriver.
That was not a hole made by a screwdriver. I would say it was there for a purpose or it was drilled there to disable the engine.
Careless smoking and munitions handling, and now leaving loose tools laying about. Sounds like their sailors need retraining. 😊
Kaliningrad? That is an attack on german soil! How dare they! ;- )
They are liberating it...
@@renameduser466 Since when russians ever came for liberating ?

Looks more like a rustbucket got a hole in it than sabotage, to be honest. Or some incompteksi got to it. Easier to blame the Ukrainian gremlins than own up to it.
I agree. Based on the level of rust on the exterior, I'd guess the interior is worse. It wouldn't shock me to find out that they used seawater in their coolant.
I also have a hard time believing someone took apart the turbo charger and punched a hole in it. There's way easier things you could do to sabotage it.
Возможно, какой-то «обломок» подобрался к ней слишком близко?
Given the state of russian maintenance in general and the poor quality of their manufacturing I's say that's more likely than sabotage . There are bound to be easier and longer lasting ways to damage the ship . If that is the case though and it was someone on the crew then it does tell us something about russian morale even on a ship that's not really in much danger.
@@balaclavabob001 By "much danger" I assume you mean from Ukraine. There's nothing safe about being on a floating junk heap that is the Russian Navy
@@VMSBIGOTall large ships use the water they sail on, so it'd be sea water
Russian Minesweeper is POTATO
Impressive intelligence, translation, not so much
It looks like the failure due to corrosion. Acid? It looks like just another day at the rebuilders
Oh Ship! this is hilarius russian navy episode 1003.
Sounds like some random part just broke. And the Reds are just blaming everything on them.
Did they check for empty Vodka bottles in the condensers?
empty vodka bottles ARE the condensers
Thank you!
GUR also leaked Project 21631 ship layout.
This boats NATO designation is ‘Bob’.
That looks like sabotage through neglect. I've seen pinholes like that in water pipes as a result of corrosion.
Also, it looks like it is in a location which is not easy to get to unless you are a squirrel.
Thank you.
Are we sure this wasn't just a Russian sailor?
United24 are saying it was a GuR operation
The guy sounds as drunk as a skunk. Russian sailors are starting to realise it's better to avoid going to see at all costs.They never trained for deep sea diving.
the rzzn navy taught the rzzn army how to drink
Could be a voice scrambler to prevent getring voluntold to the infantry
Oh dear, how sad, never mind.
I'm not sure who did the translation, but *"A train is coming, a screwdriver through which the water of the internal September engine has entered"* doesn't make much sense. Maybe it's just me.
Screwdriver is presumably a mistranslation of a vaguely similar sounding word meaning "hole".
Can't for the life of me work out what train is coming. Will need to have a drink.
September engine I'm guessing is reference to the engine being supplied or repaired in September...
Just you mate , I understood it perfectly 😏😂😂
Ah there's sound.
A train is coming= the search is on
Идёт поиск - the search is on
Идёт поезд - train is moving (coming/going/whatever)
Maybe that should be 'drain' rather than 'train' as they need to drain out the water. But I do not know Russian.
I guess the Ukrainians guessed putting on P72.
ruassia has never been a serious naval power. But on pronuhb, they are an aanl power.
GUR agent or Careless Russian Smoker strikes again.
Don't be rude to barges, a lot of them move under their own power.
Thank you for the clarification Suchomimus.. I wouldn't have been able to figure out what the heck he meant without ya!! ☺️✨️🇺🇦
Glory to Ukraine Слава Україні
Very creative, quick and simple to carry out but pretty costly to repair. Whoever did that knows that type of turbine inside out.
With Russian expertise in maintaining their navy, my bet is on poor maintenance or disgruntled or drunk sailor.
funny...the navy gives names to ships as a way to immortalize somebody. then it turns out the ship doesn't even last very long at all.
He was a scientist, and the real deal. His name still comes up in discussions of boundary layer effect and turbulence. Not that anyone but nerds cares, of course.
Oh, the russian mechanic sounds a bit sad 😰
Makes me think of my sweeping machine. Dropped a wrench in it but the mechanics said it could never get into the moving parts from where it's stuck now behind the water tank.
Maybe some Russian guy dropped a screwdriver and was less lucky, or like some comments suggets, it just had a hole somewhere due to it being a rustbucket
So I am going to go out on a limb and say this failure is due to a lack of routine maintenance, but I am sure in Russia today, anything that breaks is being blamed on the GUR, because it is easier than taking accountability.
👍🇺🇦🇮🇪🇺🇦
I doubt it was sabotage. More probable is simply the normal lack of maintenance of Russian equipment usually due to corruption. Sabotage is probably a cover story by whichever officer is responsible for pocketing the maintenance money.
Brave sabotuer.
1 smart crewman amongst the crew
That grey (mud pie) mass he pokes threw is more likely salt water corrosion or electrolysis. I've seen lots of that around boats. When you get stray electrical currents passing through saltwater and unprotected metal to ground then metal dissolves. More likely they either neglected replacing the boats zinc sacrificial blocks, lost their bonding or have electrical issues that is passing current through the running gear to ground.
Let's face it, it was a race between sabotage, poor maintenance and sheer mechanical incompetence, and sabotage got there first.
Bad translation.
In Russia, Preventive Maintenance has a whole different meaning !! 😂😂
Hilarious.
I think he's saying that someone dropped a screwdriver in the water intake, and it poked a hole that allowed water to get into the turbine. As usual, a Russian gives part of the story.
Having witnessed first hand (oil/gas) what lazy, indifferent, inebriated, catastrophic f-up’s they are, this feels more like typical Russian attention to detail.
💙💛🦉💙💛🦉🇺🇦✌️
It was Dr. Who. Should have worked!
Ahh, the new Ukrainian nanobots are doing a fine job on their first mission.
going to take awhile for repairs its out of action
Washing soda into the oil is a lot more effective, as it will absolutely destroy the bearings all through the engine. Also an item common on a naval base, sold as an additive to make the clothes brighter and wash clean.
Too complicated and easy to trace. Just mix the synthetic oil 5W-40 with the common mineral oil. Ouch, call the engine rebuild shop in advance.
They are incompatible and turn into gelatin, with ZERO lubrication.
Commander: "Well this is original high quality, very expensive oil. Lets get the cheapest used filtered oil and pocket the difference. The lads will appreciate that prolonged stay in port". So EVERYBODY HAPPY HAPPY.
They did this to my friends car, to his great 'joy".
@@SeanBZA Oooh, I didn't know about that trick.👌
I do know another one though: bleach in the fuel destroys all the seals. 😁
This is a turbine, not IC
How was security so lax, that an enemy agent was aloud to get in the vessel enter the engine room, and have enough time too sabotage the engine without being seen?
😂🎉
🎉
idk, that could have just been a corrosion hole and they are blaming it on ukraine.
There is nothing in that video that says it was a sabotage and nothing about screwdriver.
He said, he is looking for the hole through which water is coming in engine, then he shows that he found it.
Lol it was a guy videoing himself doing routine maintenance oil filter change
Lack of maintenance. No cathodic protection. Everything rusted.
The image is of a diesel engine clearly too small for a craft of that size. I would assume that is a turbocharger diesel unit. Something in this analysis is clearly wrong😂 the pin hole appers to be from detination burning a hole on the piston dome...
🤡🤡 it's a turbine, not diesel. what you see is a water separator for the cooling system
I've only rebuilt one VW engine, but, that looked like scaling and improper combustion - this is a casualty of poor maintenance and/or poor fuel quality, might be timing of combustion such that a hole was blown through the cylinder head because it sparked on an upstroke - a drilled hole is preposterous.
I think the idea is that someone dropped a screwdriver in the water intake and it poked a hole in that part. That looks like part of a valve of some sort, not a moving part or internal engine part. Think of the thermostat on a car.
Rebuilding bug engines was a hobby for some of us back in the 70's. There were tons of performance parts available, and the faster you built one, the shorter it would last. The water-cooled engines aren't nearly as easy or fun.
Subtitles are hilarious.
Seems an odd explanation to me .... You'd have to dissassemble a part of the turbine to make the hole shown and the whole metal disc shown is cracked around the perimeter?..... could be a perfectly normal Russian malfunction incident???
Лучшее, что может сделать сейчас русский, - это спрятаться в русской глуши или бежать через зеленую границу. Война уже была проиграна, когда он двинулся на Киев. Методов и материалов 20-го века недостаточно против украинцев и их сторонников. Китай потирает руки, но ему не нужно устаревшее российское оружие или российские углеводороды. Для России в качестве предметов торговли с очень немногими торговыми партнерами остаются только пшеница и полезные ископаемые, и поэтому цена, которую можно получить, низкая. Для России начинается варварский век гражданских войн, не сегодня и не завтра, а в этом десятилетии. Углеводороды и военные технологии из России продаются медленно!
Not sure about Ruzzia having any 20th century methods. I'd say most of them are clearly 13th century.

Don't forget the origins of this gentleman.
He says nothing about a screwdriver
i guess it is the translation app translating it to screwdrivier. I don't speak russian or ukrainian
A train is coming a screwdriver
= we're looking for the hole
Идёт поиск отверстия was misheard as идёт поезд отвертка
September engine = hole through which water entered the engine, then the guy stating the date in September
So the hole had been there since september, or they already reported it in september and its still not fixed?
Unclear. He says "September 29, Baltiysk city, Alexander" (can't make out the surname, maybe Grachev).
Ah it's the same Alexander Obukhov from the first clip.
So in October 2024 he was looking for the hole and then he found it in September.
So still making FA sense to me.

😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹👏👏👏👏👏👏
Looks like a truck engine, 4 in pistons
not a piston, water separator it has a turbine engine
🤣
lol, anybody can do videos like this and claim its true.
Another Trust me bro Journalism. Where the proof. This video confirms nothing. Jeez, dude you are pretty bad at sources, and proof.
Uh the engine looks like crap. Poor maintence for sure. Russias only vintage aircraft carrier will probably never sail again. Poor design and maintence. Probably the same here. A matter of simple logical deduction.
Don't watch it.
something seems fishy here, if that was the hole left from a supposed screw driver that is way to small and not fresh but old as there is no disturbances of rust, this looks very fake and more Russian Propaganda
apparently it is a mistranslation with the app--the word for screwdriver is very similar to the word for hole
@@suchomimus9921 not entirely all that similar unless you've consumed a few too many screwdrivers 🤣
Much insights much appreciated excellent eyesights from you as always 🫶🏻😏
