Description
The MPK Pr.201K is a gift rank IV Soviet sub-chaser with a battle rating of 3.7 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced during Update "Winged Lions" as a reward for the 2021 Operation W.I.N.T.E.R. event.
General info
Survivability and armour
The MPK Pr.201K virtually has no armour, only protected by steel on the hull and superstructure. The only armour it has located on her 2 x 25 mm turret. It can withstand any small arms and some heavy machine gun fire, but you are vurnelable to autocannon fire. With only 29 crew, it's surprisingly survivable. Just be carefull with your front hull because all of it's ammo are located in front of the ship's hull. Try to hide your front hull if you can or you will be destroyed instantly.
Mobility
For a Sub-chaser, MPK Pr.201K is somewhat quick. With 52 kph forward and 20 kph reverse in RB and SB, you can flank and go behind cover to suprise other boats and sometimes some unaware PT boat with your rapid firing twin 25mm and 45mm autocannon.

Armament
Primary armament
The 45mm/89 SM-21-ZIF is a powerful naval autocannon. With it's fast firing high velocity cannon and somewhat less prone to overheating it can shred PT boad and lighty armored ship pretty quickly. Keep in mind that it only have one type of ammo selection and doesn't have AP round, make it harder to fight heavier target like armored gun boat and destroyer. And also your superstructure blocking your firing arc make it useless if your enemy are directly on your front.

Additional armament
Describe the available additional armaments of the ship: depth charges, mines, torpedoes. Talk about their positions, available ammunition and launch features such as dead zones of torpedoes. If there is no additional armament, remove this section.
Usage in battles
Describe the technique of using this ship, the characteristics of her use in a team and tips on strategy. Abstain from writing an entire guide – don't try to provide a single point of view, but give the reader food for thought. Talk about the most dangerous opponents for this vehicle and provide recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of playing with this vehicle in various modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the ship in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the ship and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Ship-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main
template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>
, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />
. This section may also include the ship's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===
, also if applicable).
