The Spokoinyy was the lead ship of the Project 56 (Kotlin-class) destroyers, which were the last gun-only destroyers built for the Soviet Navy. The Project 56 destroyers were improved, scaled down, and modified versions of the previous experimental Project 41 - Neustrashimy destroyer, better suited for large scale production as they were smaller, cheaper, and easier to build in large quantities. Spokoinyy was laid down on 4th March 1953 and commissioned on 8th October 1957. She was assigned to the Northern Fleet on 12th September 1956 and performed various training duties and exercises throughout her career before being decommissioned on 19th April 1990 and subsequently sold for scrap. Spokoinyy, unlike other ships of her class, never underwent any modernization.

Spokoinyy was introduced in Update "Starfighters". She is a modified version of the previous Neustrashimy-class destroyer, sharing the same hull design, magazine locations, as well as the air track and search radar Fut-N or two quintuple torpedo launchers, although differently placed. The secondary 45 mm guns are split into one behind each main armament turrets and two between funnels on each side of hull, unlike two behind each main armament turrets on Neustrashimy. The Spokoinyy's propulsion is divided into two sections with boilers and transmission paired under each funnel, so a direct hit into one section does not leave the ship dead in the water.
