An order to this decree has been signed by RF Premier Mikhail Mishustin, the Government press office reports. The budget investment will amount to 58.9 bn rubles ($837/8 mn).

    The two 60 MWt 1763 m LOA 34 m beam icebreakers with a displacement of 33,500 tons are to be delivered in 2028 and 2030 respectively. They will be deployed to assist vessels operating in the Northern Sea Route.
