KYIV, Sept 20 – Another Centaur-class fast assault boat built at the shipbuilding plant of Kuznya on Rybalsky for the Navy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has been launched in Kyiv, the Defense Ministry reported on Thursday.

Kuznya on Rybalsky is owned by President Petro Poroshenko, but his assets are managed by an investment bank.

"'Centaur' is the second project of locally manufactured boats, which was designed and built by an independent Ukraine ... This boat is the first one of a series of such combat vessels. We have already launched two boats, and we are waiting for a continuation," First Deputy Commander of the Ukrainian Navy Andriy Tarasov has said.
