Project 1252 code name: "Isumrud" ( Russian "Изумруд" for emerald , NATO designation: "Zhenya class") was a class of mine clearance vessels of the Soviet Navy that had been developed on the basis of Project 257DM to search for sea mines in the coastal apron. Three ships were built in the Soviet Union from 1966.

description

Project 1252 was a revised version of Project 257DM. However, the hull was not built here from wood, but, for the first time in the world, completely from fiberglass . Due to the poisonous fumes from the plastic used, additional ventilation devices had to be planned.

The propellers were enclosed in a noise-reducing casing, the clearing gear was supplemented by a large cable drum and two cranes on the working deck aft. A dome with an MG-79 and an MG-26 sonar was installed under the hull to search for sea mines .

The ships were armed like Project 257DM with a 30 mm L / 63 AK-230 turret on the forecastle. Sea mines and depth charges could also be carried.

Whereabouts

Three ships of Project 1252 were built in Leningrad by 1969. They served in the Soviet Navy and were all decommissioned in 1990.
