Corvettes Grad and Naro-Fominsk deployed to Lake Ladoga and moored at Storozhevoye near Priozersk.

In September 2024, a second pair of Kalibr-capable corvettes, Grad and Naro-Fominsk, was deployed to Lake Ladoga, SWP reported. They moored at Storozhevoye, a testing facility for underwater systems near Priozersk. SWP noted that satellite imagery indicates Storozhevoye can currently accommodate only two corvettes, suggesting that permanent basing would require further infrastructure. The repeated deployment indicates that the 2023 presence was not a one-off.
