Project history

These ships were designed around a new mine countermeasures weapon. They have a mine detection sonar and an underwater communication link. Machinery is remote-controlled, presumably so that all personnel can be concentrated in a safe control station.

Modernizations

1996, Astrakhanets: - mine countermeasures equipment
