Counts only measures both sources give with the same scope. A larger figure is not a better system.
27.4 m (89 ft 11 in)[source]
Bars compare reported quantities only. A larger figure does not make a system better; configurations and test conditions differ.

| Source measurement | — | Since the boats were designed for direct fire support, the 27-meter-long hull is lightly armoured and divided into twelve watertight compartments. The bridge is armoured with 10 mm steel on the sides and 15 mm on the bow, and the windows of the wheelhouse can be closed with armoured shutters. Along the sides, the hull is reinforced with an 8 mm thick steel belt from frame 26 to frame 46. The steel deck is 4 mm thick. The gun turret on the bow is armoured all around with 15 mm.[source]Shmel-class patrol boat · Hull and armament; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The turret of a light PT-76B tank, equipped with a stabilized 76.2 mm L/42 D-56TS cannon and a coaxial 7.62 mm SG-43 machine gun, was mounted on the bow. Behind the turret is the armoured bridge superstructure with a control station and searchlights. A rotating 140 mm BM-14 multiple rocket launcher with 17 tubes is mounted amidships, carrying 34 unguided rockets as ammunition. The launcher must be reloaded manually, is not stabilized, and can only fire accurately when the boat is stationary. At the stern is a 2M-3 turret with two 25 mm L/70 auto-cannons. The boats were designed with launching rails, through which up to ten sea mines can be deployed.[source]Shmel-class patrol boat · Hull and armament; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The propulsion system consists of two M50F diesel engines driving two propellers. This is sufficient for speeds of up to 24 knots. At 10 knots, the range with the 4.8-ton fuel reserve is 320 nautical miles. Fresh water and food supplies are provided for operations of up to seven days.[source]Shmel-class patrol boat · Propulsion and range; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage |
