Dzerzhinskiy (also transliterated Dzerzhinsky, Russian: Дзержинский) is a Project 11351 Nerey-class frigate (NATO reporting name Krivak III) of the Coast Guard of the Federal Security Service of Russia.

As of 2022, Dzerzhinskiy is the only active vessel in the Coast Guard of Russia that was awarded with the Order of the Red Banner.

Defence against aircraft was provided by twenty 4K33 OSA-M (SA-N-4 'Gecko') surface-to-air missiles which were launched from one set of twin-arm ZIF-122 launchers, mounted aft of the fore 100 mm gun.

From 15 August to 24 September 1987, Dzerzhinskiy sailed from Sevastopol to its assigned homeport in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky via the Suez Canal.

The Project 11531 frigate Dzerzhinskiy inherited the award when she was launched, in conjunction with the decommissioning of the second ship on 2 March 1984.

[8] Dzerzhinskiy was participating in an exercise with the United States Coast Guard around the waters of Northeastern Russia on 26 May 1998, when one of the American coast guard cutters radioed its Russian counterpart that there is an intruding unidentified vessel in the area, which is inside the exclusive economic zone of Russia.

The intruder, which turned out to be a Chinese seiner (a type of fishing vessel) Zong Long 37, did not yield and increased its speed.

Dzerzhinskiy ordered the fishing vessel to stop, which was ignored and the chase ensued for 2 hours, which at that point the frigate fired a warning shot with its gun and ignored by the intruder.

At around 13:00 the border guards were ordered to fire directly at the intruder using a Kalashnikov rifle with tracer rounds.

The intruder, which is a 1,500 tonnes Japanese trawler Meise Maru 128, stopped and was boarded by personnel from Dzerzhinskiy.

As Dzerzhinskiy closed in and noticed that the fishing vessel begun to list, the frigate lowered its rescue equipment.
