The 'Project 1135 Burevestnik (Storm Petrel) class were a series of frigates built for the Soviet Navy. These ship are commonly known by their NATO reporting name of Krivak and are divided into Krivak-I, Krivak-II, (both Navy) and Krivak-III (Coast Guard) classes.

These ships were designed as a successor to the Riga class. The design started in the late 1950s and matured as an anti-submarine ship in the 1960s. A total of 40 ships were built, 32 ships for the Soviet Navy (Russian Navy) and 8 modified ships for the KGB Maritime Border Guard (FSB Coast Guard).

The ship's unique features-the bow missile box, the stack and the angled mast, earned it a rap-like nickname among U. S. sailors that comes from their foreign ship silhouette identification training - "Hot dog pack, Smokestack, Guns in Back - Krivak."

How many ships that remain in active duty today is uncertain. According to some sources Russia has four units in service and the Ukrainian Navy one. Russian press listed three units operational in February 2008, one with the Baltic Fleet and two with the Black Sea Fleet (BSF).

The Indian Navy ordered six frigates of upgraded Project 11356 as the
Talwar Class. Three ships were be delivered in 2003-2004. Three more are under construction and will be delivered in 2011-2012.

On 12 Oct, 2010, it was announced that the Yantar Yard at Kaliningrad on the Baltic had won a contract to construct three new warships for the Russian Navy. The construction of the frigates for the Russian Navy will be carried out in parallel with the construction of the same-type frigates for the Indian Navy.
