Note: Two Vytegrales class cargo ships were transferred in 1996 but have not been put into service; they are laid up and probably deteriorating.


Note: Two Dobrynya Nikitich class port icebreakers are probably under local control at Odesa, not under naval control. The sail training ship Khersones, Tovaristsch and possibly others are under civilian control.


Note: A large fleet of scientific ships (space event support ships, survey ships, research ships, etc.) were abandoned in the Ukraine upon the collapse of the USSR; they have become Ukranian property. However, none is under naval control, and most have been sold or are working in commercial service.
