No gross tonnage is recorded for this vessel, so it cannot be ranked by size. Rank is only shown where the underlying measurement exists.
In brief
Kosmonavt Vladimir Komarov was a satellite tracking ship of the Soviet Union.
It was named after Vladimir Mikhaylovich Komarov, the cosmonaut who died on Soyuz 1.
It was built as an ordinary cargo ship in 1966 and converted in Leningrad in 1967.
It was decommissioned in 1989.

In context
Every figure in this section is a count, a rank or a percentile over vessels actually held in this registry — not over the world fleet, which is larger. Nothing here is estimated.
Soviet Union is the country of registry for 23 vessels in this directory. The most common class under that flag is vessels this registry holds no type classification for (16 ships), and the median vessel measures 4,900 GT. Browse every ship flagged Soviet Union.
Narrowing to both dimensions at once, this registry holds 16 vessels this registry holds no type classification for flying the Soviet Union flag.
Kosmonaut Vladimir Komarov was built in 1967, making it 59 years old. It is one of 496 hulls in this registry delivered that year, a cohort whose median tonnage is 757 GT. Across the whole of the 1960s the registry holds 4,074 vessels, median 844 GT. The median build year across the entire registry is 1995.
The registry attributes 43 vessels to Baltic Shipyard, with a median tonnage of 20,646 GT, delivered between 1960 and 2022. See the rest of that yard’s output.
At 155.7 m overall, Kosmonaut Vladimir Komarov is 40.7 m longer than the 115.0 m median for vessels this registry holds no type classification for on record, with a beam of 23.3 m and a draft of 8.8 m.
IMO numbers are issued in broadly chronological blocks. Within 500 either side of 6707404 this registry holds 8 other vessels, whose median build year is 1967 and which range from 1965 to 1968. That places this hull’s registration in the same part of the series, consistent with its recorded build year of 1967.
Its IMO number, 6707404, carries its own check digit. The first six digits are weighted seven down to two and summed — 6×7 + 7×6 + 0×5 + 7×4 + 4×3 + 0×2 = 124 — and the last digit of that total, 4, must equal the seventh digit, 4. It does, so this number is well formed.

No ship class is recorded for this vessel, so these are not asserted to be sister ships — they are contemporaries from the same builder, shown because that is what the data supports.
