Gepard class frigate

Vietnamese frigate Đinh Tiên Hoàng (HQ-011) docked in Tiên Sa port, Đà Nẵng, Việtnam on February 15th, 2014.

The Gepard-class frigates (Project 1166.1) were a class of warships intended to be the successors of the Koni-class frigates as well as the Grisha and Parchim-class corvettes.

These vessels are capable of employing their weapons systems in conditions up to Sea State 5. The hull and superstructure are constructed primarily of steel, with some aluminum-magnesium being used in the upper superstructure. They are equipped with fin stabilizers and twin rudders, and can use either gas turbines or diesel for propulsion in a CODOG configuration
