ℹ️ --- The Neštin-class minesweeper is a class of minesweeper built specifically for naval mine clearing duties on rivers. The class was built for the needs of the Yugoslav Navy on the Danube river and was also sold to Hungary and Iraq during the 1970s and '80s. A new river minesweeper design was requested in the 1970s to replace the 301-class minesweeper in the Yugoslav Navy. The Neštin-class was designed by the Naval Institute of the Yugoslav Navy. All minesweepers were built by the Brodotehnika shipyard in Belgrade. They can load and lay 18 non-contact mines type AIM-M82 or 24 anchors R-1 mines, as well as 80 fully equipped troops. Equipment for countermeasures consists of mechanical mine-hunter MDL-2R, makeshift electromagnetic/acoustic mine hunter PEAM-1 and explosive mine hunter AEL. The Neštin-class is powered by two Torpedo B-539RM/2 engines 121 kW each. Fifteen ships were built for the Yugoslav Navy and export customers from 1976 to 1980. One ship was built for the Yugoslav Navy in 1999.
📑 ➖➖➖ Six ships were built for the Yugoslav Navy in the 1970s while an additional ship with heavier artillery was built in 1999. Four Neštin-class minesweepers continued their service with the River Flotilla of the Serbian Armed Forces, following the dissolution of Yugoslavia.
