Ladny is a Krivak-class missile frigate of the Russian Navy. She also served with its predecessor service, the Soviet Navy.

LAdny was ordered by the Soviet Union in 1978 and was laid down in May 1979. The ship was commissioned in the Soviet Black Sea Fleet in 1981.[1] After the collapse of the Soviet Union in December 1991 the frigate became a part of the Russian Navy. As of 2015 the frigate was active with the Russian Black Sea Fleet.[2]

In July 2015 Ladny took part in Navy Day celebrations in Sevastopol. While Ladny demonstrated her firepower, one of her SS-N-14 missiles misfired and spiralled out of control before landing harmlessly in the sea.[3]
