Wow, I wasn’t aware that the new destroyer would be that big.
Kolpino, the 6th and the last Project 6363 sub for Black Sea Fleet, has been launched. Also, it seems it is pretty much official news now that Pacific Fleet will get 6 new subs in the near future, although no contract has been signed yet.

Admiralty Shipyard will build most if not all the new subs. Amur might get to build one. In theory it would be a good thing to give Amur one sub to build but in practice it might not be such a good idea.

Hi Jang,

Latest interview from Yantar, not sure about current status but they are close to launching the 4th hull IIRC.
The 4th hull has already been launched. The 5th hull shouldn’t be far from launching.
“Admiralty Shipyards” plan in the autumn of 2016 to begin construction of two new patrol ships of ice class Project 23550 for the Russian Navy, told RIA Novosti CEO Alexander Buzakov shipyards.
A patrol ship of ice class project 23550 is a fundamentally new boat that combines the quality of the tug and icebreaker patrol boat. This ship can go to the tropics and the arctic waters, breaking thick ice up to 1.5 meters.
According to the head of the Sredne-Nevsky Shipyard, Russia’s second Aleksandrit-class minesweeper (Project 12700), Georgy Kurbatov, will be launched on July 29.
According to Seredokho, the third vessel of the series will be laid down at the same time as the launch of Georgy Kurbatov. The fourth ship will be laid down in September.

The quote says April 10 but it must be May 10.
It will be very interesting to see how fast More shipyard and also Pella shipyard can construct these ships.
