Project history: This was the production successor to the Project 122A/bis. They were generally described as poor seaboats, and were rather smaller than their predecessors. Gun armament was sharply reduced to two twin 25mm AA, as in contemporary coastal craft, but there were 4 RLS. Compared to the Project 122, they were considerably faster, with over twice the power, but needed 20% fewer men, in a smaller hull.

Modernizations: 1957, Yard no 700: machinery was rebuilt as on other pr. 201 boats (3 30D diesels); - 4 DCT; + 4 x 5 RBU-1200 Uragan ASWRL; full displacement became 195t.

Naval service: No significant events.
