Khasan-class monitor

The Khasan-class (Project 1190) were a class of three sea-going river monitors built between 1936 and 1942 for the Soviet Navy, the Khasan, Perekop and Sivash. All three ships served with the Amur Flotilla of the Pacific Fleet throughout the Soviet invasion of Manchuria (but did not participate). The Khasan class were notable for being the largest river-going monitors ever built. All three ships survived the war and served in the Soviet Navy until the early 1960s.
