KATERINA VELIKAYA supply and icebreaker

Post by aukepalmhof » Wed Sep 15, 2021 9:32 pm

Russia issued in 2021 a stamp for the Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex, which shows us the supply vessel icebreaker KATERINA VELIKAYA, she is launched, but so far I can find out not delivered to owners yet.
I do have not official details on her but will add this when she is coming available.

The Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex (SSK Zvezda) is a Russian shipbuilding and ship repair enterprise in the city of Bolshoy Kamen, Primorsky Krai. On September 1, 2016, the ceremonial launch of the first stage took place in the presence of the President of the Russian Federation. In 2018, work began on the construction of the second stage of the shipyard; it is expected to complete the construction in 2024.

Thanks to fundamentally new technological solutions, Zvezda today is one of the most modern shipbuilding industries in the world. Over the past five years, the facilities of the first stage of the shipyard have been built and put into operation: an open heavy completion slipway with a fleet of unique cranes and an advanced ship transportation system, a block of hull production facilities, paint chambers, a transport and transfer dock. Among the objects of the second stage is a unique hydraulic structure-a dry dock, one of the largest in the world.

The built infrastructure provided an opportunity to start fulfilling orders without waiting for the completion of the shipyard construction. In 2020, the first Zvezda vessels were launched: the new-generation oil tanker VLADIMIR MONOMAKH and the multifunctional supply vessel KATERINA VELIKAYA. Vessels of such size and complexity have not been built in Russia before. Today, the order portfolio of SSK Zvezda includes more than 50 vessels, including the world's most powerful icebreaker LEADER.
