Yury Ivanov-class intelligence ship

The Yuriy Ivanov class (Project 18280) is a new type of Russian SIGINT intelligence collection ship. The ship is designed by the JSC Central Design Bureau Iceberg. The displacement of the ship is more than 4,000 tons, the cruising range not less than 8,000 miles (13,000 km) and its armament consists of light anti-aircraft weapons. The ship on its performance characteristics and capabilities is considerably superior to similar vessels of previous generations mainly due to the versatility and high level of automation and systems integration.[1] The vessels of this class are designed for providing communication. The first ship, Yuriy Ivanov, was laid down in 2004 and was launched on 30 September 2013. The second ship, Ivan Khurs, was launched on 16 May 2017.[2] Russia plans to build at least four such ships by 2020.[3]
