Triglav left basin of Almaz shipyard in the night of Oct 9, 2010. Till the beginning of Oct the boat had been undergoing trials and acceptance procedures. The shipbuilding contract was signed in July 2008; the boat was laid down in Sept 2008 and launched on July 21, 2010. The project developer is Almaz Central Design Bureau for Marine Engineering.
Slovenian flag is going to be hoisted over the ship in Novorossiysk; in Nov 11-12 the boat will leave Russian territorial waters and head for the Adriatic Sea to continue service in 430th division of Slovenian Navy.
Slovenian crew was trained simultaneously with the patrol boat's building. The crew training was held in two stages: they learned theory in Coast Guard Institute (Anapa, Russia), and practiced in St. Petersburg. The training was conducted in English; when the course was over, the crewmen received diplomas and certificates.
Patrol boat Triglav will become the second vessel of Slovenian Navy.
