The customer was the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the contract for the construction of the vessel was concluded in 2016. The shipbuilders of "Yantar" laid down "Voevoda" in 2017.

It was expected that the rescue vessel would be handed over to the customer in the autumn of 2019, but the deadlines were repeatedly postponed. In 2019, "Voevoda" was only launched, and the vessel was completed for another four years.

After passing all the tests, the vessel, designed to provide emergency rescue operations and supply small search and rescue craft, will join Rosmorrechflot.
