The non-self-propelled floating crane of Type PPEK-30 was designed for lifting operations, fitting of chains and anchors of the floating berths, and also for loading on warships and submarines of various weapons and cargo. Floating cranes of this project served on the Baltic Fleet, Northern Fleet and the Black Sea Fleet of the USSR and later - the Russian Federation. In total, six non-self-propelled floating cranes of this type were built for the Navy.
