At the moment there are 6 planned, I suppose they will accompany the two helicopter carriers in the Pacific and Black Sea fleets

The question is that the two original 11711 are nothing, it is necessary to replace them with larger ones
Perhaps the best thing is to get rid of them later and sell them to India, as well as the three frigates type 11356 Admiral Grigorevich (Krivak V), so that India has a series of 6 in total

The new amphibious ships of the modernized Project 11711 will receive a  of attack helicopters

Large landing ships "Vladimir Andreev" and "Vasily Trushin" of the modernized project 11711, being built at the Baltic shipyard "Yantar", will become carriers of a flight of the latest sea-based attack helicopters Ka-52M for fire support of landing operations. A source in the military-industrial complex reported this to TASS .


“The new BDKs of the Vladimir Andreev type, unlike the ships of the basic project 11711, will carry on board not one or two vehicles, but a full-fledged link of the latest Ka-52M attack helicopters armed with Kh-35 anti-ship missiles. This dramatically increases the strike capabilities of the air group, which "will also be capable of covering an amphibious assault from the air. A group of such large landing craft with the Ka-52M will be able to provide fire support for a large landing operation," the agency's source said.


According to him, the enlarged BDK hangar of the modernized Project 11711 is capable of accommodating a flight of up to four Ka-52M or five Ka-27 anti-submarine helicopters for searching and destroying submarines. At the same time, the basic design BDK can accommodate only one Ka-27 search and rescue helicopter or Ka-29 transport and combat helicopter.


TASS does not have official confirmation of this information.


The large landing craft Vladimir Andreev and Vasily Trushin, laid down on the Yantar in April 2019, are planned to be handed over to the fleet in 2024 and 2025, respectively. They will have larger dimensions than the BDK of the basic project 11711: the displacement will increase to 7–8 thousand tons. Each of them is capable of transporting up to 13 main battle tanks or up to 36 armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles, as well as a battalion of marines.


The modernized Ka-52M attack and reconnaissance helicopter received a new radar system with an active phased array antenna and a guided missile with an increased range. The Ka-52M main rotor blades are equipped with a more powerful heating element, which allows the helicopter to be operated in the entire temperature range, including arctic conditions. The helicopter is equipped with landing gear wheels with higher load-bearing capacity and wear resistance, as well as LED-based lighting equipment.


The expanded range of weapons includes Ataka missiles (killing range - 4–6 km), Vikhr (8 km), Vikhr-M (10 km).

Today you (ships) need a helicopter to be more versatile.
Multiple helicopters are even better.
But those ships can still deliver a few thousand tons of stuff to harbors or beaches.

Possibly, but do you believe that they can replace each of the Ropucha (project 775) and Alligator (project 1171) with one new 11711M?
It would mean many more ships than those planned.
