They are the first domestically produced naval vessels in Kazakhstan and are stationed in the Caspian Sea in service with the Kazakh Navy. Ships in the class have a displacement of 240 tons, a top speed of 30 knots, and are armed with "modernized anti-aircraft missile and artillery units." They are the largest vessels in the Kazakh Navy arsenal. There are four ships in the class, named Kazakhstan, Oral, Saryarka, and Mangistau.
