The Razliv is a Nanuchka-class corvette in the Russian Navy.

Specifications[edit]

Small missile ships of the Project 1234 according to NATO classification Nanuchka-class corvette is a series of Soviet small missile ships (MRK) of the 3rd rank built at shipyards of the USSR from 1967-1992.[2]

The type consists of three series of subprojects:

By the name of the project code, the ships received the nickname gadflies in the navy. IRAs of Project 1234 were supplied to the Navy of four countries of the world: the USSR, Algeria, Libya and India. Libyan ones were destroyed during the NATO military operation in the summer of 2011; Indian ships of this project were withdrawn from the Indian Navy in 1999-2004.

The ships of the project were actively operated in all four fleets of the Soviet Navy and during the 1970-1980s carried out combat services in the World Ocean. They left a noticeable mark on the history of Soviet shipbuilding and are currently being gradually withdrawn from the combat strength of the Russian fleet.[2] So, if at the beginning of 2001 in the Russian Navy there were 2 ships of project 1234 and 18 ships of Project 1234.1,[3] then by 2006 all ships of project 1234 were withdrawn from the Navy and only 12 ships of the project remained in Project 1234.1 and 1 ship of Project 1234.7.[4][5]

Construction and career[edit]

Razliv was laid down on 1 November 1986 at Vostochnaya Verf, Vladivostok. Launched on 24 August 1991 and commissioned into the Pacific Fleet on 31 December 1991.[6] The status of the vessel was unclear as of early 2022 and she may have decommissioned in 2021.[7]
