Project history

Soviet Black Fleet project 159A corvette. 21.7.1992, preparing for the parade, the crew raised Ukrainian flag and passed from Sevastopol to Odessa. The chase of the Black Fleet ships was unsuccessful due to fears of harming the crew or ship. The Black Sea Fleet had the order not to open fire. Subsequently, during the division of the Black Sea Fleet, the ship was officially handed over to Ukraine but immediately scrapped, as in a year the ship became into poor technical condition.

Modernizations

None.
