The Yevgenya class, Soviet designation Project 1258 Korund, are a series of minesweepers built for the Soviet Navy and export customers between 1967 and 1980.

Design

The Yevgenya class are small minesweepers built for inshore work. The hulls are constructed of glass-reinforced plastic. As built they have a standard displacement of 88.5 LT, 90 LT normally, 91.5 LT at full load and maximum 94 LT. The Yevegenya class measures 26.13 m long overall, 23 m between perpendiculars and 24.16 m at the waterline with an extreme beam of 5.9 m and 5.4 m at the waterline. The vessel has a normal draught of 1.35 m and 1.38 m fully load. As built, the minesweepers are powered by two diesel engines turning two propeller shafts creating 850 bhp. This gives the ships a maximum speed of 12 kn and a range of 300 nmi at 10 kn. They carry 90 LT of diesel fuel. The vessels have twin-mounted 14.5 mm machine guns. They are equipped with MT-34, AT-2, SEMT-3, Neva and GKT-3 sweeps. The minesweepers mount MG-7 sonar. They have a complement of 10.
