Moskvitch-class motorship

Moskvitch (Russian: Москвич) (projects 515, 544, 554) is a series of Soviet local passenger river ships.

The first Moskvich ships were built in 1948 in the Moscow factory of shipbuilding.

Moskvich ships did not receive names, only numbers.

Moskvich ships were used for short sightseeing trips, but also as a type of public transport, called “water tramway” (concept similar to water taxi).

Type Moskvich ships were also built in Kherson, Ukraine.
