China and Russia are setting up a joint venture in Russia for making electromagnetic unit vehicles for the Moscow-Kazan high-speed rail project, railway equipment maker CRRC Corp Ltd said on Thursday.

The vehicles will be made by Changchun Railway Vehicles Co, a CRRC subsidiary based in the capital city of Jilin province, it said.

The high-speed rail linking Moscow and Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan Republic, is located in the high altitude area, while Changchun Railway Vehicles has rich experience and advantages in making electromagnetic unit vehicles for alpine high-speed rail lines, it said.

The Chinese subsidiary's experience in making equipment suitable for extreme cold weather conditions will come in handy for the Moscow-Kazan line, said Zhu Ying, general manager of China Railway Eryuan Engineering Group Co.

The world's first high-speed railway operating in extremely low temperatures is the 921 kilometer line linking Harbin, the capital of China's northernmost province of Heilongjiang, and the port city of Dalian, Liaoning province, which opened in 2012. It works in temperatures as low as minus 50 degrees Celsius.

The maximum design speed of 400 km per hour is the fastest worldwide, and also the fastest for China's overseas high-speed railway contracts, Zhu said.

The Moscow-Kazan line, with a length of about 770 km, will run through seven Russian regions when it is completed by 2018 before the Russia FIFA World Cup.

It will cut travel time between Moscow and Kazan to three and a half hours from 14 hours now.

The line will be extended later and become part of the planned Beijing-Moscow high-speed corridor.

According to CRRC, China and Russia have negotiated on the order size and details of the joint venture.

Particulars regarding the number of electromagnetic units, scale and location of the plant and vehicle parameter performance are to be discussed later.

Are the Russians opting for Maglev?

Maglev have never turned out to be economic compared to Rolling Stock.

Electric multiple units（EMUs）

The new standard CRH350 or CRH2G are the optimal choice for cold Russia, similar to our NE China and NW China.

CRH2G
+40 --- -40 degree celsius

Russia to provide S-400 missile systems to China along with Su-35 jets

Looks like all these years the Russians were telling the truth

What ? I remember RU said S400 is not for sale.

Defense of the Gawader port is about to get strengthened

What ? I remember RU said S400 is not for sale.

Oh, everything is for sale in Russia. How else do you expect Putin to sponsor a small war with NATO (Turkey issues)?? Do you think he'll tap into his "personal retirement" accounts??

Strategic partners, it means can sell everything to each other ... No Secret.

I prefer Tu160.,

they have already exported it to Algeria i guess China is second

Algeria might have begun deploying S 400 SAM systems - Secret Difa3

Tu-160 cockpit is very old ... we need to build our own B-2, not too long we can see China stealth bomber.


Tu-160

B-2

NO , B2 is ugly.

I like Tu160 , it's classic airplane, my beauty !

Damn!
When did Ru export S400 to Algeria ?

 

[cnleio]

As far as i knew, China need B-2 more than Tu-160 ... a stealth bomber is the future key for our nuclear-attack platform.
