Kudryavtsev, Sergei Valentinovich (rear admiral). Memoirs of Vice Admiral Vasily Grigorievich Kudryavtsev

Kudryavtsev Viktor Fedorovich - vice admiral of the reserve, headed the Higher Naval Engineering School named after F.E. Dzerzhinsky in 1979 - 1988


Over its 200-year history, the school has gone through a difficult path of transformation and has become a first-class forge of officer engineering personnel, training specialists in military shipbuilding, nuclear energy, and integrated control systems for ship technical equipment.

Russian sailors have written many bright pages in the development of naval science, technology and shipbuilding. And among them, a special place is occupied by students of the first specialized naval engineering educational institution in world history.

Its history began on August 31, 1798. On this day, by order of Emperor Paul 1, the School of Naval Architecture was founded. The first graduate of the school consisted of only seven specialists, who were honored in the presence of the royal court. In 1898, in honor of the 100th anniversary and services to the fleet, it was renamed the Marine Engineering School of Emperor Nicholas II. The school is the only one of all military educational institutions in Russia that was not closed during the years of the revolution and civil war. Nowadays this is a renowned, one of the oldest educational institutions in the country - the Higher Naval Engineering School named after F.E. Dzerzhinsky (VVMIU). For two centuries now, engineering personnel for the Russian Navy have been trained here. There were no other institutes in Russia yet, but ships built according to the designs of the school’s graduates, A.A., were already leaving the stocks. Popova, I.Ya. Osminina, M.M. Okuneva, N.N. Berzhanova. College graduate I.A. Amosov was the first Russian to use a propeller in the construction of ships, Kh.V. Prokhorov built the first domestic battleship. The first Russian combat submarine "Dolphin" (designer I.G. Bubnov), the first domestic nuclear submarine (V.N. Peregudov), the first Soviet missiles (V.V. Razumov), the priority of introducing electric welding into shipbuilding (V.P. Vologdin) - these and many other design solutions are associated with the names of the students of the oldest forge of naval engineers.

Over the years, future academicians studied here: A.I. Berg, Yu.A. Shimansky, N.S. Solomenko, I.D. Spassky, V.L. Pozdyunin, A.A. Sarkisov. There is practically no higher educational institution in the country in which Dzerzhinsk residents do not occupy a leading role among the most qualified teachers. Students of the school and its scientists made a great contribution to the development of the theoretical foundations of fundamentally new types of naval combat equipment and weapons, and their successful implementation into practice.

Without being able to name many worthy graduates, special mention should be made of Academician I.D. Spassky (graduated in 1949), now the head of the Rubin Central Marine Engineering Design Bureau, whose role in the creation of a modern submarine nuclear missile fleet is significant. Under his leadership, several generations of nuclear and diesel-electric submarines were designed. Contribution of I.D. Spassky's vision of science and technology was embodied in more than a hundred nuclear submarines armed with ballistic and cruise missiles. I.D. Spassky is a pioneer in the transition from individual developments of various types of weapons to system design.

Over the years, future graduates studied at the school, who subsequently occupied high positions in the navy and industry: deputy commander-in-chief of the Navy, admirals N.V. Isachenkov, P.G. Kotov, V.G. Novikov, V.V. Zaitsev, Assistant Minister of Defense of the USSR Admiral S.S. Turunov, Ministers of the Shipbuilding Industry A.M. Redkin and M.V. Egorov, plant directors E.N. Voskresensky, N.N. Kuteynikov, I.S. Pribylsky, I.G. Milyashkin. The first cosmonaut among the sailors was a graduate of the school in 1961, V.I. Christmas.

Over its 200-year history, the school has gone through a difficult path of transformation and has become a first-class forge of officer engineering personnel, training specialists in military shipbuilding, nuclear energy, and integrated control systems for ship technical equipment. “The school plays an outstanding role in the development of domestic and world shipbuilding, in the creation and development of a modern ocean-going nuclear missile fleet,” emphasizes the directive of the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy dated March 23, 1997, “On preparations for the celebration of the 200th anniversary of the founding of the school.”

His students participated in testing nuclear weapons, eliminating accidents at nuclear power plants on submarines, demagnetizing ships, preparing space rockets for launch, and exploring record depths. More than 800 students of the school were awarded government awards.

The school is the nest of about 230 naval dynasties. Among them are the Isaevs, Kudryavtsevs, Kostylevs, Kobzevs, Savelovs, Markitantovs, Titovs, Gusevs, Muru and others.

VVMIU named after. F.E. Dzerzhinsky played a significant role in the creation of higher educational institutions: the Red Army Navy Communications School (1932 -1933), the Military-Political School (1932 - 1936), the Higher Naval Engineering Schools - in the city of Pushkin, Leningrad Region (1948). ) and in Sevastopol (1951).

Today, the school maintains the historical continuity of the best traditions, the main of which are the tireless training of its own highly qualified teaching staff; affirmation of advanced pedagogy; fostering the highest general engineering and professional culture; fundamental nature of graduate training; focus on educating not only specialists - officers - naval engineers, but also citizens - patriots of their Motherland; the desire to instill in pupils (cadets) not only a high professional, but also a general culture; the creation of our own scientific schools, a close connection between the theoretical and practical training of the future officer of the naval engineering service.

The school has powerful scientific and teaching potential, which is based on about 50 doctors of science and professors, more than 140 candidates of science and associate professors. Nowadays it employs a famous scientist, a 1944 graduate, Professor N.P. Muru. His works in the field of the theory of ship lifting, ship statics and the development of the doctrine of unsinkability are fundamental in our country and are widely known abroad. Under his leadership, unique operations were carried out to raise the sunken German liners Hansa and Hamburg in 1949-1950 and the battleship Novorossiysk in 1957.

In the last decade, VVMIU named after. Dzerzhinsky, a number of well-known scientific schools in the country emerged, formed under the leadership of scientists of the new generation. Under the guidance of Doctor of Technical Sciences G.A. Ershov is developing mathematical algorithmic and software for automated planning, optimization and analysis of maintenance work for both shipborne automatic control systems and stationary nuclear power plants, as well as other complex objects.

Over the 200-year history of the school, more than 18 thousand specialists have been sent from its walls to the fleet. Among them are twelve Heroes of the Soviet Union, seven Heroes of Socialist Labor, two Heroes of the Russian Federation. Among the graduates are six academicians and four corresponding members of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 30 honored workers of science and technology of the RSFSR, Ukrainian SSR and the Russian Federation, 137 laureates of the Lenin and State Prizes. 220 graduates went from cadet to admiral. Ships, streets, and schools are named after many of the students of the oldest naval alma mater. Some of the graduates have distinguished themselves in the literary field. Among them is the author of the book “On the Eagle” in Tsushima” V.P. Kostenko, as well as writers M.I. Glinka, A.N. Vorontsov, M.G. Alekseenko, M.V. Kabakov, I.V. Ozimov, L.L. Klimchenko, V.N. Infantiev, V.E. Korzh and others.

The 200th anniversary of the school is an outstanding event not only for the fleet, but also for the entire country.

An excerpt characterizing Kudryavtsev, Sergei Valentinovich (rear admiral)

Prince Andrei arrived at the army headquarters at the end of June. The troops of the first army, the one with which the sovereign was located, were located in a fortified camp near Drissa; the troops of the second army retreated, trying to connect with the first army, from which - as they said - they were cut off by large forces of the French. Everyone was dissatisfied with the general course of military affairs in the Russian army; but no one thought about the danger of an invasion of the Russian provinces, no one imagined that the war could be transferred further than the western Polish provinces.
Prince Andrei found Barclay de Tolly, to whom he was assigned, on the banks of the Drissa. Since there was not a single large village or town in the vicinity of the camp, the entire huge number of generals and courtiers who were with the army were located in a circle of ten miles in the best houses of the villages, on this and on the other side of the river. Barclay de Tolly stood four miles from the sovereign. He received Bolkonsky dryly and coldly and said in his German accent that he would report him to the sovereign to determine his appointment, and in the meantime he asked him to be at his headquarters. Anatoly Kuragin, whom Prince Andrei hoped to find in the army, was not here: he was in St. Petersburg, and this news was pleasant for Bolkonsky. Prince Andrei was interested in the center of the huge war taking place, and he was glad to be free for a while from the irritation that the thought of Kuragin produced in him. During the first four days, during which he was not required anywhere, Prince Andrey traveled around the entire fortified camp and, with the help of his knowledge and conversations with knowledgeable people, tried to form a definite concept about him. But the question of whether this camp was profitable or unprofitable remained unresolved for Prince Andrei. He had already managed to derive from his military experience the conviction that in military affairs the most thoughtfully thought-out plans mean nothing (as he saw it in the Austerlitz campaign), that everything depends on how one responds to unexpected and unforeseen actions of the enemy, that everything depends on how and by whom the whole business is conducted. In order to clarify this last question, Prince Andrei, taking advantage of his position and acquaintances, tried to understand the nature of the administration of the army, the persons and parties participating in it, and derived for himself the following concept of the state of affairs.
When the sovereign was still in Vilna, the army was divided into three: the 1st army was under the command of Barclay de Tolly, the 2nd army was under the command of Bagration, the 3rd army was under the command of Tormasov. The sovereign was with the first army, but not as commander-in-chief. The order did not say that the sovereign would command, it only said that the sovereign would be with the army. In addition, the sovereign did not personally have the headquarters of the commander-in-chief, but the headquarters of the imperial headquarters. With him was the chief of the imperial staff, Quartermaster General Prince Volkonsky, generals, adjutants, diplomatic officials and a large number of foreigners, but there was no army headquarters. In addition, without a position under the sovereign were: Arakcheev - a former minister of war, Count Bennigsen - the senior general of the generals, Grand Duke Tsarevich Konstantin Pavlovich, Count Rumyantsev - chancellor, Stein - a former Prussian minister, Armfeld - a Swedish general, Pfuhl - the main compiler campaign plan, Adjutant General Paulucci - a Sardinian native, Wolzogen and many others. Although these persons were without military positions in the army, they had influence due to their position, and often the corps commander and even the commander-in-chief did not know why Bennigsen, or the Grand Duke, or Arakcheev, or Prince Volkonsky was asking or advising this or that. and did not know whether such an order was coming from him or from the sovereign in the form of advice and whether it was necessary or not necessary to carry it out. But this was an external situation, but the essential meaning of the presence of the sovereign and all these persons, from a court point of view (and in the presence of the sovereign, everyone becomes a courtier), was clear to everyone. It was as follows: the sovereign did not assume the title of commander-in-chief, but was in charge of all the armies; the people surrounding him were his assistants. Arakcheev was a faithful executor, guardian of order and bodyguard of the sovereign; Bennigsen was a landowner of the Vilna province, who seemed to be doing les honneurs [was busy with the business of receiving the sovereign] of the region, but in essence was a good general, useful for advice and in order to always have him ready to replace Barclay. The Grand Duke was here because it pleased him. The former minister Stein was here because he was useful to the council, and because Emperor Alexander highly valued his personal qualities. Armfeld was an angry hater of Napoleon and a general, self-confident, which always had an influence on Alexander. Paulucci was here because he was bold and decisive in his speeches, the General Adjutants were here because they were everywhere where the sovereign was, and, finally, and most importantly, Pfuel was here because he, having drawn up a plan for the war against Napoleon and forced Alexander believed in the feasibility of this plan and led the entire war effort. Under Pfuel there was Wolzogen, who conveyed Pfuel’s thoughts in a more accessible form than Pfuel himself, a harsh, self-confident to the point of contempt for everything, an armchair theorist.
In addition to these named persons, Russian and foreign (especially foreigners, who, with the courage characteristic of people in activity among a foreign environment, offered new unexpected thoughts every day), there were many more minor persons who were with the army because their principals were here.
Among all the thoughts and voices in this huge, restless, brilliant and proud world, Prince Andrei saw the following, sharper, divisions of trends and parties.
The first party was: Pfuel and his followers, theorists of war, who believed that there is a science of war and that this science has its own immutable laws, laws of physical movement, bypass, etc. Pfuel and his followers demanded a retreat into the interior of the country, retreats according to the exact laws prescribed by the imaginary theory of war, and in any deviation from this theory they saw only barbarity, ignorance or malicious intent. The German princes, Wolzogen, Wintzingerode and others, mostly Germans, belonged to this party.
The second game was the opposite of the first. As always happens, at one extreme there were representatives of the other extreme. The people of this party were those who, even from Vilna, demanded an offensive into Poland and freedom from any plans drawn up in advance. In addition to the fact that the representatives of this party were representatives of bold actions, they were also representatives of nationality, as a result of which they became even more one-sided in the dispute. These were Russians: Bagration, Ermolov, who was beginning to rise, and others. At this time, Ermolov’s well-known joke was spread, allegedly asking the sovereign for one favor - to make him a German. The people of this party said, remembering Suvorov, that one must not think, not prick the map with needles, but fight, beat the enemy, not let him into Russia and not let the army lose heart.

History of the Kudryavtsev family

This year, the central library began running the series “The History of Trubchevsk in Persons,” which introduces famous Trubchevsk families. The next meeting was dedicated to the Kudryavtsev family.

The script was based on the autobiographical books of Vice Admiral V.G. Kudryavtsev, dedicated to his family. The presenters talked about the Kudryavtsev family, in which five sons grew up - defenders of the Motherland during the Great Patriotic War, two of whom died at the front, and two rose to the highest ranks of the army and navy .

Most of the story was dedicated to Vasily Grigorievich, who currently lives in St. Petersburg and is preparing to celebrate his 90th birthday. Despite his advanced age, he maintains constant contact with our city, donating books and exhibits to the Trubchevsky Museum of Local Lore, libraries and schools in the city.


E.I. Yudenkova, whose family is friends with Vice Admiral Kudryavtsev, told those present about this amazing man and their recent meeting in July of this year, accompanying her story with photographs from her personal archive. S.V. Loginova, chief curator of the museum’s funds, reported on the exhibits donated to the local history museum by V.G. Kudryavtsev.

The meeting was attended by Vasily Grigorievich’s cousin, who shared memories of her relatives, the Kudryavtsevs. The listeners perceived what they heard with interest and excitement. At the end of the meeting, the participants wrote a congratulatory message from the trumpeters, among whom veteran teachers G.I. Sazonova left a kind note. and Kurashova V.G., Navy veteran V.M.

Vice Admiral V.G. Kudryavtsev. 1985

The election campaign in Volgodonsk has entered its final phase. Contrary to tradition, there will be no fierce battles for the mayor's seat. For the first time in the modern history of the city, the mayoral elections will be virtually uncontested. The only real candidate is United Russia member and current head Viktor Firsov.

The other two candidates, Dmitry Pustov and Dmitry Taraskin, are not his competitors.

The fight for deputy mandates in most districts is very tough. A total of 105 candidates are registered, with an average of 4.2 people per seat. But it is not the number of candidates that gives the election campaign dramatic tension, but their quality. The local branch of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation nominated its candidates in all 25 electoral districts. At the same time, 6 candidates are employees of boarding school No. 14, which is headed by the secretary of the Volgodonsk party organization and the current deputy of the Volgodonsk City Duma Tatyana Voronko. The rest are representatives of small and medium-sized businesses. With the exception of three, the candidates approached the campaign formally. On their election accounts 10 rubles each

The Just Russia party lost to the communist party quantitatively, having formed a party list of 20 contenders. Fifteen of them are also fictitious candidates, with 10 and 100 rubles in their election accounts. By the way, the actual budget of the election campaign of one candidate for a Duma seat ranges from 1 to 2 million rubles, depending on the popularity of the candidate, the seriousness of his competitor, etc.

The Liberal Democratic Party presented the smallest group of candidates. But 3 of their candidates are very serious players. There are 43 self-nominated candidates. Among them, there are only five competitive candidates. The main character in the elections to the City Duma is the local organization of the United Russia party. In all 25 electoral districts there are United Russia candidates registered according to party lists. But there are United Russia members among self-nominated candidates.

In five districts, Evgeny Kudryavtsev, nicknamed Admiral, the leader of the Olympian group, led his fighters against United Russia. And he didn’t just bring it out. The newspaper “Pravda, what?”, owned by the same Kudryavtsev, energetically began to compromise the candidates from United Russia. It’s funny that he himself is also a member of the United Russia party. A high position in the political council of the city “United Russia” is also occupied by the current deputy of the 24th district, Alexander Prutsakov, nicknamed Shoma, an active member of the Olympian group.

For the last eight years, Evgeny Kudryavtsev has been working very actively to create his new image as a respectable entrepreneur. He founded a fund to support family and childhood, received the Order of the Good Angel of the World (!) from the Patrons of the Century charity foundation, and created a newspaper that tirelessly glorified him. And he even took a photo at Krasnaya Polyana with President Medvedev. And he published the photo in his newspaper. It seemed that everything was ready to start running for parliament. But there was an embarrassment. One of the central newspapers wrote that our President was photographed with a man who has the reputation of the founder and leader of the Olympian group in Volgodonsk. After such a scandal, personal participation in the elections had to be canceled. Now the Olympians will be represented in the 11th district by Alexey Germanyuk, in the 12th by Evgeny Fedorin, in the 13th by Admiral’s brother Gennady Kudryavtsev, in the 14th by Alexey Misan, in the 24th by Alexander Prutsakov.

The latter owns a half share in the Olympus travel agency. The second half belongs to Alexey Zubarev, also an active Olympian. Two years ago, he was convicted of beating one of the city entrepreneurs, by the way, also a United Russia member, with metal rods together with an accomplice.

Another candidate for the 12th district, director of the base “Olympic enterprise” Troika LLC, Evgeniy Fedorin, together with his “friends,” several years ago crippled a private security officer. For twenty days the 25-year-old young man was between life and death. Fedorin then went on the run and was on the federal wanted list for some time. A year later, the case was hushed up Fedorin returned to Volgodonsk and again became the director of Troika LLC.

And here are excerpts from one interesting document: “In the city of Volgodonsk, the criminal community, called “Olympus” according to criminal records, has a great influence on the socio-economic situation, the leader is Evgeniy Gennadievich Kudryavtsev, nicknamed Admiral. Has stable corrupt connections both in the city administration and in law enforcement agencies. Over the past few years, law enforcement officials have not carried out any activities aimed at undermining the economic basis of the OPS "Olympus", although it is known that this criminal community receives most of its income through illegal business activities, concealing income from the activities of trading enterprises controlled by the OPS "Olympus" ", extortion and blackmail.

The last inspection by OBEP officers was carried out in April 2002. The market in block B-5, controlled by OPS Olympus, was suddenly inspected. During the audit, facts of concealment of income on a large scale were revealed (revenue collected from traders was not carried out through the cash register). The inspection material was recorded in the crime register. In April and May of the same year, at the Troika LLC market in the area of ​​the Yunost shopping complex, police officers carried out events during which numerous offenses in the field of trade and tax legislation were revealed, and a large number of people of Caucasian nationality who were in the city without registration. However, no one was brought to justice."

But not all “heroic deeds” of Olympians can be hidden in secret. The serial beating of entrepreneurs two years ago by gang members who extorted money from them still ended in four sentences. The director and chief accountant of the Furniture from Georgiy enterprise were convicted of fraud, having helped the “man from Kudryavtsev,” as the chief accountant explained in court, “heated up” one of the banks for 5 million rubles and disappeared in an unknown direction It is clear that There's plenty of money for guys who do this sort of thing. Enough for charity, and for campaigning for ourselves, and for the coolest “PR”.

Kudryavtsev has his own view of the balance of power in the city’s corridors of power, which was published by his newspaper “Pravda, what?” In the “situation of mayor Firsov, speaker Tkachenko, the Duma will become pocket for the administration” (L. Tkachenko, deputy head of the city administration for social development, is running for deputies of the city Duma, ed.). Therefore, there is no way for the leader of the city’s United Russia, Pyotr Gorchanyuk, to lose. He has a direct path to the post of Chairman of the Duma.

There is no doubt that the last week before the elections in the admiral's districts will be military-dramatic. Olympic plenipotentiaries will be on duty at each entrance around the clock. Competitive agitators will not be allowed near the population under threat of physical harm. One of the candidates, who dared to suspect the Admiral of unseemly actions and wrote a statement to the police, someone had already thrown an F-1 combat grenade into the courtyard of a private house. The police reacted to this incident in a very unique way: the main version is seriously considering the assumption that the candidate “ordered the grenade himself” for advertising purposes.

The question of what the balance of power will be in the future Duma of Volgodonsk of the fifth convocation is, without exaggeration, fateful for Volgodonsk now the representative body of power has the right to dismiss the mayor of the city, and the one in whose hands the controlling stake in the Duma ends up will be the master in Volgodonsk . And God forbid that it should become a celestial inhabitant of the local “Olympus”.
