Brazilian Navy Sinks Corvette That Had Been Decommissioned Since 2016 and Prepares Other Decommissionings for This Year

As Click Petróleo e Gás had reported, on June 18, the Brazilian Navy Had Already Painted the Hull of the Corvette Inhaúma (V-30), which had already been decommissioned and was docked at the Navy Arsenal in Ilha das Cobras, Rio de Janeiro.
According to information from the Navy, the Corvette was supposed to be hit by the 3rd prototype of the MANSUP missile (National Anti-Ship Surface Missile), launched by the frigate Independência (F44), but that is not what happened.

With the change of plans, the Brazilian Navy executed the launch of the Penguin missile from an SH-16 Sea Hawk helicopter from Squadron HS-1 (1st Anti-Submarine Helicopter Squadron).
The reason for the change was not disclosed, but what is certain is that now the Corvette Inhaúma rests on the seabed serving as a breeding ground for fish.

The Video

The video released by the Navy, which CPG provides at the end of the article, shows the moment of the missile launch from the helicopter and the moment it hit the water near the waterline of the Corvette.
Soon after, it can be seen that the vessel is being overflown by aircraft (MB AF-1 or FAB A-1) and it can be seen that it is hit and begins to sink, initially with the stern submerging.

The Corvette Inhaúma (V-30) was commissioned into the fleet on December 12, 1989, and was decommissioned on November 25, 2016, and being the first, it named the series.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

The atmosphere of Venus is so dense that it managed to reverse the entire rotation of the planet over billions of years, a study published in Nature Astronomy reveals that being on the surface would be like sinking into an ocean of 475 degrees Celsius.

Government announces more than R$ 7 billion in investments in Amazonas on a single Wednesday, the package includes a controversial highway, energy for 75,000 people in communities, new ports, and the largest order in the Brazilian naval industry in a year.

Goodbye squeegee and cloth on the window: robot cleans windows by itself for up to 110 minutes, covers 55 m² per charge, and uses 12 layers of protection to prevent falling during cleaning.

Manufactured in China, the 300-ton steam balloon that is the heart of the world’s largest recovery boiler was hoisted to almost 100 meters high at the future Arauco plant in Inocência, marking a milestone in the $4.6 billion project in Mato Grosso do Sul.
