Test trials of "Valdai 45R" hydrofoil vessels are being conducted in Rostov-on-Don.
The "Valdai 45R" was produced and developed at the R. E. Alekseev Central Design Bureau for Hydrofoil Ships. It can carry 45 passengers at speeds up to 65 kilometers per hour. The region has purchased two of these vessels. In the new year's navigation season, they will already be carrying passengers to Azov, Konstantinovska, Semikarakorsk, Romanovskaya, and other destinations.
In addition, the people of Rostov acquired one "Meteor 120R" hydrofoil with a high degree of localization from the R. E. Alekseev Central Design Bureau for Hydrofoil Ships for the new navigation season.
This vessel carries 120 passengers at speeds up to 75 km/h and can complete a voyage of up to 700 km. The "Meteor 120R" is already running smoothly in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, and since October, also in the Nizhny Novgorod region. On it, you can travel from Nizhny Novgorod to Kazan along the Volga River.
