Object and purpose of research. This study discusses Russian gas turbines of capital naval ships and auxiliary vessels, their advantages and drawbacks. The paper is intended to provide a systematic and concise history of Russian gas turbine developments, analyse their current status and to justify the prospects of their improvement and application on modern ships of the Russian Navy. Materials and methods. The paper describes the inception and progress of Russian gas turbine technology for capital naval ships, as well as tackles the four generation of Russian gas turbines in their evolution, showing the origin and tracing the history of design and manufacturing of gas turbines. It enumerates the scientists who made the greatest contribution to the progress of Russian gas turbine developments. The paper provides a system analysis for the gas turbines of capital naval ships constructed before the World War II, reflecting the performance parameters of these ships. It justifies the prospects of gas turbine developments. Special emphasis is put onto the study progress of gas turbines for capital ships after the World War II, including the current status of the Russian Navy. The paper provides performance parameters of the modern ships with gas turbines, justifies optimal parameters and requirements to the main elements of gas turbines for ocean-going ships and auxiliary vessels, as well as provides a deep insight into the designs of gas turbines for the ships of different types and classes, including hydrofoils and ACVs. The study follow the method of system analysis and system approach, as well as the principle of historical succession. Main results. The paper investigates the trends of gas turbine development, providing a systematic description of their main advantages and drawbacks, as well as formulating the requirements to future gas turbines and indicating the most promising designs for their main elements. It analyses the parameters of modern and future gas turbines from the technical and the economic standpoint, suggesting the ways of further improvement in Russian gas turbine technology.Conclusion. The paper formulates the conclusions and predictions for future gas turbine developments, as well as justifies them scientifically.
