Decommissioning and sale
On 20 April 2024, the Emancipation was listed for sale by the Kalythian Ministry of Foreign Commerce as pressure from the government required the Navy to reduce the size of its reserve fleets. Four days later, the Emancipation was purchased by Arkava along with two other ships for a total price of $6.1 billion Kalyns, about 5.072 billion NSD. The ship was renamed the PRV Yevgeny, after the first Admiral of the Arkavan Navy. About a week later, a crew was mustered for travel to Kalythia to take possession of the ship, along with native advisors to train the new crew.
The Yevgeny arrived at Velirinsk Naval Base for further maintenance and Arkavan accommodations and upgrades with native technology suites. After about four months in dry dock, the ship was officially rechristened and put into active service on 10 August, 2024 with sea trials lasting for about a month. The crew, now fully trained and experienced, entered the active roster on 15 September 2024 and the ship was permanently stationed at Saratrov Naval Base.
