The Leitenant Ilyin class was a class of Russian destroyers in the Baltic Fleet of Tsarist Russia, based on the design of the prototype boat Nowik , ordered in 1912 from the Baltic Sea shipyards in the wake of the small shipbuilding program approved for the Baltic Sea in June 1912 and built there were.
Eight boats were started, but only two more came to the Imperial Russian Navy. In 1917 another boat could be completed. Two other boats were only completed for the Soviet Navy in 1927/1928. Blohm & Voss built six torpedo boats for the German Imperial Navy from
parts that were manufactured and confiscated in Germany .

Compared to the Nowik , the design was a little smaller. The plans were drawn up with the help of the German shipyard Blohm & Voss in Hamburg, which had a financial stake in the Putilow shipyard and at the same time had undertaken to provide technical assistance in the planning and construction of warships. The boats were ordered in October 1912 and stacked between October 1913 and November 1914 at the Putilov shipyard in St. Petersburg. The turbine and boiler systems were also ordered from Blohm & Voss to speed up the construction of the Leitenant Iljin class . These lapsed after the outbreak of the First World War of the confiscation, whereby Blohm & Voss in August 1914 offered the Reichsmarineamt to use this and the plans to build two boats. This offer was taken up again in October 1914 and January 1915 and the shipyard built the large torpedo boats of the type SMS B 97 for the Imperial Navy , the size and performance of which were closely based on the Leitenant-Iljin class .

Naming

All boats were named after fallen Russian naval officers, who served as role models in Russian naval history.
