Kubrak
From WikiAlpha
Kubrak is a small patrol vessel, operated by the Ukranian Navy.[1][2]
She was the fifth of five patrol vessels of the United States Coast Guard provided to Ukraine after approximately 30 years of service in the USCG.[1][2]
As built for the USCG they were powered by two diesel engines that gave them a maximum speed of 25 knots. They were armed with a 25 mm autocannon, and a pair of Browning M2 fifty caliber machine guns. They were designed to be operated by a crew of two officers and 14 enlisted sailors. The five vessels were USCGC Drummond, USCGC Cushington, USCGC Ocracoke, USCGC Washington and USCGC Kiska
