The K-8 Minesweeping Boat
In Pictures

 

This section is dedicated to pictures of the K-8 Minesweeping Boat.  Our pictures are all authentic and were taken at some time when the ship was in active service.  The one below is from a declassified NATO collection that we have bought.  We will add more photographs as they are acquired, but until then, will do our best with what we have.

 

A view of the deck gun

Here is a picture taken of the twin M-1938 DShK machine guns.  Five of the crewmen of the boat are also visible.  This picture illustrates the cramped working conditions of the boat.
