This multipurpose corvette "Gaiduk". Their plans was to build two and two heavy Corvette project 58250 + 6 fast boats "Lan" + 6 small artillery boats "Gyurza-M". They planned to set up Ukrainian and Russian weapons, including new ukrainian ASM's. Now, of course, the plans will have to change dramatically.
