nanuchka class corvette russian 3d max - Nanuchka class corvette RUSSIAN SOVIET MISSILE SHIP by De Espona

The Nanuchka class was the NATO reporting name for a series of corvettes or small missile ships built for the Soviet Navy and export customers between 1969 and 1981. The Soviet designation was Project 1234 Ovod (Gadfly) Small Missile Ship. These ships were designed around the SS-N-9 anti ship missile and were occasionally deployed to the Mediterranean despite being a relatively poor seaboat with engines which were not considered reliable. Export versions used the SS-N-2C Styx missile.
