The Buyan-M Corvette, or Project 21631, has a shallow draught so it can sail the Caspian Sea. However, this compact new-generation ‘hell-raiser’ is incredibly flexible for today’s changing warfare conditions. Equipped with Kalibr cruise missiles, the Buyan-M is surprisingly versatile and has allowed it to be deployed in the Syrian war.
With Combat Approved, climb on board the Grad Sviyazhsk to test the Kalibr, A-190 100 mm guns, and the Duet double-barrelled 30 mm defence system during exercises with the Caspian Sea Fleet. Visit the design bureau and plant that make the Buyan-M. And learn more about the extra stealth and defensive features that make it effective against adversaries on land and sea, and in the air.
