Design
Project 205P Stenka is a variant of the Project 205 Osa missile boat. The Stenka used the hull of the Osa class and had a slightly larger crew. The development office of the "Alma" Shipyard in Leningrad used the standardized components of the Osa missile fast patrol boat, in order to develop an anti submarine boat. The anti ship missile launch containers were replaced by four torpedo tubes but the anti-ship missile related structures and equipment were retained. The living spaces in the Stenka were improved for long patrol endurance by raising the superstructure in order to create more usable space inside, compared to the Project 205 Osa missile boat. They also installed a more powerful air conditioner.
The drive system is three diesel radial engines of the type M504 B2 with a total capacity of 15,000 hp.
