The Turkish shipbuilding company STM continues to build the first corvette for the Ukrainian Navy under the Ada project at the RMK Marine shipyard in Istanbul.

At the moment, Turkish ships have already formed the hull of the ship, which will be called Hetman Ivan Mazepa, but it is still too early to launch the corvette.

The keel of this ship was laid at STM facilities in September 2021.

In his interview in July 2022, the Commander of the Russian Navy, Rear Admiral Oleksiy Neizhpapa, noted that Turkish ships continue to build a corvette under the Ada project for our fleet. However, Neizhpapa did not disclose the approximate date of completion of work on this ship, and the possible date of commissioning of the Navy of Ukraine.
