In Development by Itaguaí, a Naval Construction Company (ICN), the Ships Designed for the Navy’s Submarine Development Program (PROSUB) Are in Their Final Stages

As far as is known at present, the Navy’s Submarines (PROSUB) from the Brazilian Navy (MB) are already divided into 05 main sections, namely: S1, S2A, S2B, S3, and S. Furthermore, the special highlight of today’s information will be focused solely on sections S1 and S2A.

In summary, section S1 is located at the end of the submarine. It is precisely what will determine the direction and stabilized depth limits throughout navigation on the seabed. Undoubtedly, a modern strategy of naval construction.

Thus, an important item for the energy conversion of the PROSUB submarine has also been placed at the end of the submarine – a propeller shaft for better and quieter movement.

Naval Construction – PROSUB Submarine Characteristics of Section S2A

In this section of the PROSUB submarine being developed by Itaguaí, the diesel compartments and another 04 engines that serve as a kind of charger for the batteries are located.

Finally, in 2019, there were also advances involving naval construction in PROSUB. With the completion of acceptance tests at the dock and the successful static submersion, which marked the beginning of at-sea acceptance tests for the “Riachuelo” Submarine. Undoubtedly, the first of the four vessels with diesel-electric propulsion planned in the aforementioned Program. The Brazilian naval construction has invested billions.

About the Navy’s Submarine Development Program (PROSUB)

In summary, the Submarine Development Program (PROSUB) of the Brazilian Navy is the result of a technology transfer agreement with the French company Naval Group (formerly DCNS). Signed in 2008 by Brazil and France, it will enable the production of four Scorpène-class conventional submarines. It will also assist in the manufacturing of the first Brazilian nuclear-powered submarine (SN-BR).

About the Navy’s Submarine Development Program (PROSUB)

Mother and daughter build a 70 m² house with more than 8,000 discarded glass bottles and impress with their creativity; known as the Casa de Sal, the property is located on Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco.

Workers were opening a new road connection near the Marginal Tietê when they found, in the underground of the construction site, remnants of locomotives, wagons, and boilers from the 19th century linked to the forgotten history of Lapa.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

The river that “dies” in the desert never reaches the sea and yet gives life to one of Africa’s largest natural refuges in a truly impressive way.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

Reservoir drops in Thailand and reveals a “Death Railway” station that was hidden underwater for over 40 years, connected to the route built during World War II by Allied prisoners and Asian workers.

Lack of physical activity can accelerate memory loss, reduce circulation in the brain, and increase risks associated with cognitive decline.

The rule of silence after 10 PM may lose strength in Brazilian cities, but noise will not be allowed, and new proposals divide residents and business owners.

The blouse tax seemed to have disappeared, but it returns in 2027 with a different name, a new federal charge, and a change that could affect the price of international purchases.

New agreement in Minas changes the entry salary in supermarkets and hypermarkets, sets a minimum wage of R$ 1,735.76, and creates an alert for workers to check adjustments, commissions, and rights on the payslip.
