Rautu-class minesweeper
''Rautu'' and ''Vilppula'' were Kljuz class Minesweepers left by the Soviets to Finland in 1918 since they would not have survived the harsh sailing to the Leningrad. Ships had weak hulls and their engines were not particularly powerful. During peacetime they were used as depot and test ships. ''Vilppula'' was designated as ''T-2'' and ''Zashtshitnik'' and ''Rautu'' as ''Murman'' before they were included to the Finnish Navy
In war time the ships were used as minesweepers but occasionally were assigned with more exotic tasks. On 5 December 1941 after Soviets had fled from Hanko there was urgent and pressing need to clear inshore seaways for merchants however the weak hulled minesweepers could not operate in the prevailing conditions. ''Rautu'' and ''Louhi'' were used as icebreakers breaking clearing the waters for the smaller minesweepers to operate. On 25 July 1944 ''Vilppula'' and small Finnish coastal minesweeper ''Merkurius'' (former customs boat of ~20 tons in displacement) were attached to a pier near Porkkala when a lone Boston (Douglas A-20 Havoc) type bomber torpedoed both ships. Though the ships were later re-floated they were not deemed to be worth of repairing. ''Rautu'' was decommissioned in 1952.〔
