The Icebreaker Sakhalin is a large modern Russian icebreaker built for the Far Eastern Shipping Company Transport Group (FESCO).[1]
The Sakhalin was launched in 2005, and is both steered and propelled by azipods -- which can be rotated to direct their thrust in any direction.[2]
The Sakhalin is designed with a stern designed to break through ice.
FESCO Transport Group has a fleet of five icebreakers.[3]
Sakhalin was completed in 2005.
The others were all built between 1975 and 1982.
