History
editIn November 2019, the Russian Ministry of Defence took the Pella Shipyard to court over delays to the project, with Ladoga being delivered to the Russian Navy two years behind schedule. The vessel Ilmen was scheduled to be handed over in 2018, however there has been no public information about its transfer to the navy.[3]
