The "Izijaslav"-class were a group of destroyers built for the Baltic Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy.

These ships were built by Bocker and Lange in Reval, Estonia. The ships were delayed due to ordering machinery from Switzerland which was embargoed on the outbreak of World War I. New machinery was ordered from Britain.
