ww2dbaseShCh-320 joined the Soviet Baltic Fleet in the mid-1930s. During the war, she patrolled the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Finland and was credited with the sinking of German coastal freighter Anna Katrin Fritzen in Jul 1942. In Oct 1942, she was mysteriously lost shortly after departing on a war patrol; she likely struck a naval mine in the Gulf of Finland and became lost with no survivors.
