14
The Baltic Sea is undergoing state tests of the landing ship of the new project 11711 "Ivan Gren". Its design began back in the distant 1998 year, and it was laid down after 6 years. At the time of launching in 2012, the ship was only ready for 70%.
Today, the Russian "unfinished" is preparing for admission to the Navy. "Ivan Gren" is more than 1,5 times larger than the most mass ship in service fleet - BDK project 775. It can take on board from two to three times more infantry and armored vehicles.
A distinctive feature of all domestic amphibious ships is also the presence of a deck helicopter Ka-29.
Armed with the 11711 project, there are AK-630-2 and AK-630-guns. In addition, the ship can carry out support for the landing using the Grad-M A-215 volley fire systems.
