Crew: 15 men
Armament:
- 1 x 76.2mm/L42 D-56T rifled antitank gun (centerline forward)

Armour:
- 30mm bridge (front, sides, rear)
- 30mm box for machinery and magazines; 15mm hull ends; 8mm deck
- 25mm (turret front); 20mm (turret sides); 8mm (turret top)
Ships in Class: Amur, Dep, Bureya, Bikin, Tok, Khor
Notes: These vessels are light shallow-draft monitors designed for operation on Russia's many rivers and lakes. As of 1949, all of them are found in the Amur River Flotilla. The D-56T main gun and the associated turret is the same as the one being developed for the PT-76 amphibious light tank. The V-2-IS series diesels are the same engines used on the T-44M medium tank. This is done for purposes of economy and ease of supply.

(Some of the boats might receive turrets from old T-40 tanks rather than the D-56T gun and turrets.)
