Russian frigate Kedrov

Kedrov (Russian: Кедров) was a Project 11351 Nerey-class frigate (NATO reporting name Krivak III) of the Soviet Border Troops and later the Coast Guard of the Federal Security Service of Russia.

In comparison to other members of the class, Project 11351 ships have a helipad and hangar for a Kamov Ka-27PS search-and-rescue helicopter astern, in exchange for the removal of one 100 mm gun, one twin-arm surface-to-air missile launcher, and the URPK-5 Rastrub (SS-N-14 'Silex') anti-ship missile launchers.

Displacing 3,180 t (3,130 long tons) standard and 3,670 t (3,610 long tons) full load, the ship's power was provided by two 22,500 shp (16,800 kW) DT59 and two 9,000 shp (6,700 kW) DS71 gas turbines arranged in a COGAG installation, driving two fixed-pitch propellers.

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 27 September to 20 November 1990, Kedrov sailed from Sevastopol to its assigned homeport in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky via the Suez Canal.
