Russia Built Its Very Own Stealth Littoral Combat Ship The U.S. Navy s Littoral Combat Ship was full of problems, including bad design, high costs, and simply being weak on the battlefield. How will Moscow fair?  On April 5, 2021 the Severnaya Verf shipyard in Saint Petersburg launched the Project 20386 Merkuriy corvette nearly five years after her hull was laid down in October 2016. The stealth ship is intended to combine anti-submarine warfare, air defense, and surface warfare capability in one relatively compact package. But the lack of fanfare accorded the launch may be explained by the total absence of super structure atop the vessel’s 109-meter-long hull, as you can see in this photo. While that will eventually be built (and the hull may even return to the slipway), the Project 20386’s immature state attests to the delays and controversy it has elicited.
