Vietnam's project 1241.8 Molniya is a further development from Tarantul-class corvette from Russia. Vietnam build four of this vessel locally at Ba Son shipyard with the assistance of Almaz Central Design Bureau from Russia.
The ship is armed with staggering 16 Uran-E anti ship missiles. Vietnam has been developing it's own anti-ship missile based on Uran-E (possibly ToT from Russia in 2013) and designated as KCT-15. Some info says the missile range was raised to 300 km with 300 kg warhead from the original range of 130 km and 140 kg warhead. With this development Vietnam would be the first country in Southeast Asia to be able to produce anti-ship missile.
