The eighth border patrol ship of project 22120 was put into operation
As reported on the forums.airbase.ru web resource , on September 30, 2022, in St. Petersburg, at Almaz Shipbuilding Company JSC, a flag-raising ceremony was held for border ships, boats and support vessels on the border patrol ship of the 2nd rank PPK-831 project 22120 (code "Purga") with serial number 057 (tail number "457"), which became part of the Coast Guard of the Border Guard Service of the FSB of the Russian Federation. It became the eighth ship of project 22120 in the series. It was previously reported that the ship was to be named Roman Chemeryuk, but so far there is no information about assigning this name to it.
Recall that this project 22120 (code "Purga") was originally developed by PKB Petrobalt LLC as a large customs vessel commissioned by the Federal Customs Service of the Russian Federation (FTS RF) on the instructions of 2005. After the refusal of the Federal Customs Service of the Russian Federation in 2009 from this project, the financing of the project continued from the Border Service of the FSB of Russia, and initially the units of project 22120 were classified in the Border Service as border patrol ships (PPS), and since 2018 - as border patrol ships (PPK) 2nd rank, but at the same time sometimes even officially sometimes referred to as border patrol ships. The finalization of the project for the needs of the Border Service was carried out under the auspices of ZAO Spetsstroyproekt (Moscow).
The lead patrol vessel of project 22120 with serial number 050 was laid down at the Almaz Marine Plant OJSC (now the Vasileostrovskaya site of Almaz SF PJSC) initially for the Federal Customs Service of the Russian Federation on June 25, 2006 and after completion for a new customer it became part of Coast Guard of the Border Guard Service of the FSB of Russia on April 29, 2011 as PS-581. In the fall of 2011, the ship moved by the Northern Sea Route to its permanent base in Nevelsk on Sakhalin, then it was renamed PPS-824, then PS-824 , and in July 2017 it was named Rear Admiral Kolchin E.S.
Following him, from 2011 to date, on the Almaz SF, under various contracts for the Coast Guard of the Border Guard Service of the FSB of Russia, six more patrol ships of this project have been built, somewhat different from each other - Rear Admiral Dianov (originally PS-825 , serial number 051, commissioned on July 5, 2013), Kamchatka (serial number 052, commissioned on November 23, 2018), Transbaikalia (serial number 053, commissioned in July 2019), Taimyr " (serial number 054, put into operation on July 10, 2020), "Admiral Ugryumov"(serial number 055, commissioned on August 16, 2021) and Ladoga (serial number 056, commissioned on September 29, 2021).
Currently, the PPK "Rear Admiral Kolchin E.S.", "Rear Admiral Dianov" and "Admiral Ugryumov" are based on Nevelsk on Sakhalin, and "Kamchatka" , "Transbaikalia" and "Taimyr" - on Petropvlovsk-Kamchatsky on Kamchatka. It was reported that the Ladoga PPK should be based in Murmansk, but so far it remains in the Baltic.
Commissioned on September 30, 2022, PPK-831 with serial number 057 was launched on April 26, 2022 and entered factory sea trials on August 25. It became the eighth ship of project 22120. Now the ninth ship of this project , Ufa ( serial number 058), is being built at Almaz Shipyard, the design of which has undergone a number of major changes, and in particular, as reported, the ship should receive weapons in the form of 30- mm artillery mount AK-630. Its launch is scheduled for 2023.

Russia want to demilitarize Ukraine, not DNR and LNR, who are most important allies in region and they will be important counter weight to the rest of Ukraine. Black sea is very important region and it is good to have an ally fleet there as well. Russia recognized independent states of DNR and LNR, so they are not Ukraine.
If they continue with referendums as they progress these will be Russian Navy ports, which can work with Sevastopol, but I suspect the military ports of Sevastopol and the original backup port at Novorossiysk, so the new ports further west could be commercial and will be busy shipping grain to Africa and the world hopefully.
A good result will be whatever is left of neutral Ukraine is landlocked from the Black Sea and hopefully Russia can remind them of their actions regarding that region in Moldova they liked to annoy Russia with by denying access to... Transnitria?

Last year, the Coast Guard of the FSB Border Service received 22 new ships
Equipping the Coast Guard with modern weapons and equipment is one of the priorities of the technical policy of the Border Service of the FSB of Russia. This was announced in an interview with TASS on the eve of the Border Guard Day by the first deputy director - head of the Border Service of the FSB of Russia Vladimir Kulishov.
According to him, every year three or four ships and up to twenty boats of different projects are accepted from industrial enterprises for the armament of border authorities.
Last year, according to Kuleshov, 22 units of modern ship composition were accepted from the industry. In particular, for use in the Arctic latitudes, the lead border patrol ship of the Yermak ice class was launched. The issue of laying a second ship of the same class is being resolved. The construction of the ships of the project 10410 "Firefly" and 22120 "Blizzard", boats of the project KS-701 "Tuna", and 25 PS "Sail" and A8 "Khivus-10" continues.

Some news about the border guards ships
Project 22120 Border Guards Patrol ships construction is proceeding at fast pace:
While the first unit took 3 years from laying down to commissioning, the next ones were completes in 2 years time. Now it is taking just 1 year from start to finish to complete these vessels.
Look at the table in the article:
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%B2%D1%8B%D0%B5_%D0%BA%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BB%D0%B8_%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B5%D0%BA%D1%82%D0%B0_22120
Starting from the 8th unit (name is PODOLSK), these ships are now armed with the 30mm gatling gun (previous units had only small arms).
The 9th unit (name is UFA) which was just launched has the new shape 30mm gatling gun.
Here is the 8th unit with the old style 30mm gun. It is on sea trials and will be commissioned soon.
It is seen at the pier next to the Almaz shipbuiding together with the latest SVETLYAK class ships SOCHI and YUZHNO-KURILSK
Here is the 9th unit (UFA) just prior to be launched.
The new style 30mm gun is clearly visible:
Furthermore, the 3rd project 22100 class ship (ANADIR) is on sea trials:

With the sea drones those 30mm autocannons will come in handy.

Russia has lots of grain and products and fertiliser stuck in European ports because of sanctions... if all the Black Sea ports of the Ukraine end up in Russian hands then I would say the best use for all these ports is an alternative for using any European ports whatsoever, so they can be used to ship not just new ex Ukrainian products to Africa but they can replace European ports for Russian goods headed that way too... let it all go through the Bosphorus (or via the Caspian through Iran...)

A lot of the routes for transporting fertilizer from Russia and Belarus were affected. The Baltic states banned export of Belarusian potash from their ports for example. So it is now being transported in bags right out of the ports in St. Petersburg. This is a lot more inefficient and terminals for bulk transportation are planned but still not available yet. A lot of nitrate fertilizer was exported out of Russia via an ammonia pipeline which goes from Russia straight to Odessa harbor in Ukraine. An alternative route is being built using rail transport to the harbor at Novorossiysk but it will take a couple of months to be operational and won't be as effective either.

My apologies to everyone. I counted wrong.
PODOLSK is the 9th unit of project 22120 class ships and UFA is the 10th.
