The Serna class, Russian designation Project 11770, is a class of air cavity system landing craft constructed for the Russian Navy. Twelve boats were built by Vostochnaya Verf between 1994 and 2014. Four boats of the export project 11771 were built in 1994.{{cite web |url=http://russianships.info/eng/warships/project_11770.htm |title=Air-Cavity Landing Craft - Project 11770 |website=RussianShips.info |access-date=2022-05-11}}
Four ships of the Project 11771 designation were made specifically for export to other countries. One was sold to Estonia (now out of service), and three were sold to the United Arab Emirates.
