The
Project 1258 Korund (Yevgenya class by the NATO classification) are a group of
minesweepers built for the Soviet Navy and export customers between 1967 and 1980.
These were small minehunters built for inshore work. The hulls were constructed
of glass-reinforced plastic. For low speed on the ship, a special diesel engine
of 80 hp was used. The minesweeper was very successful and with its very small
size (displacement of about 90 tons) had a full range of anti-mines weapons. The
ship was in great demand in the world market. A total of 40 inshore minesweepers
on Project 1258E (variant for export) were sold to 10 countries. Inshore
Minesweeper RT-583 laid down at the Sredne-Nevsky Shipyard, Pontonny (yard No.106),
commissioned in 1970 and assigned to the Black Sea Fleet. RT-583 was decommissioned
and excluded from the lists of the Black Sea Fleet on 19 March 1992. | Specifications |
