boevaya chast-1 Navigation
boevaya chast-3 Mine/Torpedo Weapons
boevaya chast-5 Electromechanical
boevaya chast-7 Radio engineering

So question is how can I call those divisions(?) in human English)? What similar divisions are on US subs and how do they called?

How it will look ingame:

P.S It seems that forum do not accept images from LightShot's server, and I do not really want to use an image hosting... So direct links instead of images...
We have Departments and Divisions. Each Department will have several Divisions that make it up. For example Weapons Department would be made of Sonar, Fire Control, and Torpedomen. Looking at your screenshots I'd say you'd want to go with Divisions as your English equivalent.
