Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was a Soviet surveillance ship that was devoted to detecting and receiving satellite communications. It had very distinguishable looks due to two extremely large and two smaller antenna dishes placed on top of the hull. It was sold for scrap shortly after the break-up of the Soviet Union along with other two big surveillance ships, the Korolyov and the Komarov.
