The East German ship Hiddensee is a Tarantul I class corvette built at the Petrovsky Shipyard, located near the Soviet city of St. Petersburg (formerly Leningrad). The world's only exhibited example of a Soviet-built missile corvette.

Comparing a 80foot 57 ton boat to a 184 foot 549 ton boat friend. And the bigger boat is faster.
