Project 22160 patrol ship


Project 22160 is a series of large patrol ships being constructed for the Russian Navy. The vessels are primarily intended for duties such as patrol, monitoring and protection in open and closed seas. The first ship was laid down in February 2014 and by December 2016 five ships were under construction. The first ship joined the Russian Navy in December 2018.

Design

The class's armament includes the Kalibr-NK cruise missile, aerosol camouflage, two grenade launchers and two machineguns and a 76.2 mm dual-purpose gun. The ship also has a helicopter deck and hangar for one Ka-27 or a Ka-226 helicopter. Besides, the warship carries a landing speedboat. It can carry various drones, underwater unmanned craft and unmanned boats. There is accommodation for an additional 60 men.

Export

In April 2018, it was reported negotiations are underway after Algeria showed interest in acquiring of four project 22160 patrol ships, equipped with the Club-N missile system and with the Palma anti-aircraft system, including the Sosna guided missiles. The demand for the ships armed with the Kalibr cruise missiles raised particularly after the Russia's successful combat use of the missiles in Syria.
