|
This section is dedicated to pictures of the 'Petya' Class frigate. Our pictures are Cold War originals. They were taken at some time when the ship was in active service. We will add more photographs as they are acquired, but until then, will do our best with what we have.
Petya 984 Underway Here is a starboard view of a Petya I underway. It was taken by the United States navy on 23 October 1983. |
An airborne view of a Petya I Here we have a photo of Petya number 624. In this picture many small details can be noticed, the arrangement of the stacks, the gun position, and deck layout. Unfortunately, no date or location was given with this photograph. |
Petya 602 on Patrol This picture of a Petya II was taken on 9 November 1984 in the vicinity of the Tsushima straits near Japan. It was taken by the US Navy. |
A stern view of the Petya II Here we can see the details of the after portion of the Petya II as it cruises in the Pacific Ocean on 8 December 1978. The ship number is 611, but it is not visible in this photograph. It was taken by an aircraft flown by the US Navy. |
