  Lagi Berita - Kapal TLDM KD PARI tenggelam...

  Salam Sejahtera,

  
  

  Baru terima SMS dari pemberi maklumat dari Teluk Sepangar Sabah,,,

  
  

  KD PARI mendapat arahan umtuk mengesan kapal People Republic Of China (PRC) yang memasuki peairan Malaysia,

  
  

  Kesian,, bila staff Engine Room baru nak rem engine (RPM) tiba-tiba bilik engine room dah mengalami kebocoran,, kapal yang baru keluar dari pangkalan jeti terumbu berpatah balik ke jeti, selepas 4 jam dari kejadian tersebut baru kapal KD PARI tenggelam, nasib baik kesemua anak-anak kapal selamat...

  
  

  Mengikut maklumat stern tube bocor, shaft center tercabut,, jadi usaha nak menyelamat keadaan dari kebocoran memang susah, sebab stern tube tu terletak dibawah generator centre... jadi sukar nak menutup lubang kebecoran tu..

  
  

  Mengikut sumber pada hari Raya yang kedua lalu Kapal KD SERANG dilaporkan mengalami kebakaran, tidak pasti kecil atau besar,,, 2 bulan yang lalu, Kapal KD TODAK grounded (tersangkut), kes sebegini disebabkan batang balak yang hanyut,,, sure lingkup kipas (proppeller) kapal tu....

  
  

  Susah nak cakap dengan kualiti anggota tentera terutama yang muda-muda sekarang ni,,, malas aku nak komen........apa akan jadi dalam masa 10 tahun lagi...

  
  

  Apakah ini sebagai ketidakan puasan hati anggota bawahan terhadap Panglima Tentera Laut Dato Aziz yang dikatakan terlalu angkuh dan berkira dengan anggota bawahan,,, sekarang ni bila aku berbual dengan anggota-anggota TLDM, proses nak sambung perkhidmatan cukup susah buat anggota LLP, entah kenapa,, tetapi untuk pegawai,, errmmm mudah.... inilah jadinya bila keadilan dalam sesuatu organisasi dah tiada...

  Are they hoping people don't know what a frigate is?
  

  
  

  

  
  

  KD Pari sustained a dislodged shaft while pursuing a China-flagged ship encroaching on waters off Pulau Layang Layang on Thursday.

  
  

  KUALA LUMPUR: A Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) vessel, in pursuit of a foreign ship encroaching on waters off Pulau Layang Layang on Thursday, was forced to abandon its operation after its engine room was flooded.

  RMN chief Admiral Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Jaafar said the crew of the Fast Attack Craft-Gun (FAC-G) vessel KD Pari heard a 'loud bang' soon after it had departed the island westward to pursue a China-flagged vessel, believed to be a frigate, spotted at Gugusan Semarang Peninjau in the South China Sea at 2.53pm.
  
  "Initial investigations revealed that the KD Pari sustained a dislodged shaft, which connects the propeller to the engine, and the vessel turned back to its base.

  "The professional action of KD Pari's 36 crew members, under the command of Lt-Cdr Abdul Hadi Abdul Malik, managed to steer the stricken vessel towards Pulau Layang Layang's jetty where it became partially submerged four hours later.

  "After attempts by the crew to siphon out the fast in-flowing water with portable pumps failed, divers were called in to first seal the huge hole at the stern tube before using air-fillled 'lifting bags' to float the vessel."
  
  He added a second RMN ship, the new-generation patrol vessel KD Pahang was immediately summoned to pursue the China-flagged ship and managed to "shoo it away" after efforts to communicate with it failed.

  "A board of inquiry has been established to investigate the incident and assess the damage to KD Pari."
  
  Damage to KD Pari, which reportedly underwent refurbishment in 2009 to the tune of RM12 million, is believed to be in the tens of millions of ringgit.
  
  The assistance of the Royal Malaysian Air Force was also sought to despatch a CN-235 maritime patrol craft from Kota Kinabalu and a C-130 Hercules from Subang to Pulau Layang Layang to ferry additional technical crew and equipment to salvage KD Pari.

  KD Pari, pennant number 3510, was built by Hong Leong-Lurssen at its Butterworth shipyard and commissioned on March 23, 1977.
  
  It weighs 244 tonnes, is 44.9m x 7m x 2.5m, can sail at 32 knots and is manned by 36 crew members
  
  The RMN also confirmed that another FAC-G vessel, KD Serang, sustained a small fire from a short-circuit on Aug 31 while minesweeper KD Todak was 'grounded' after a slight mishap with a floating object two months earlier.
