Yarsolav Mudry is the second of the 2 ship Neustrashimy class frigates of the Russian navy. She therefor differs from her sistership. This class was designed as a general purpose ASW frigate to follow on from the Krivak class frigates. (This was before the 11356 Talwar was developed for India and then adopted also for Russian navy) The program started in 1986 with seven ships planned. After the collapse of the CCCP the project was frozen and only one ship, the Neustrashimy ("Fearless"), was finished and accepted in active service with the Russian Baltic Fleet in 1993. As second - unfinished - hull remained 'in stasis' for quite some time before enough funds were made available to finish her. On February 24, 2009 the second ship left Yantar shipyards in Kaliningrad for its first sea-trials. As of 2010, both the Neustrashimyy and the Yaroslav Mudry are operational with the Baltic Fleet.
