Project 20386 is Russia's newest class of corvettes being constructed by Severnaya Verf for the Russian Navy. Based on the Template:Sclass- and Template:Sclass- classes, the new class will be larger and will incorporate more stealthy design. There are plans to build a series of at least ten such corvettes.[1]
