Gremyashchiy (Russian: Гремящий; "thunderous") was a Project 7, or Gnevny-class destroyer in service within the Soviet Navy launched on 12 March 1937 at the Zhdanov Yard in Leningrad. Construction began on 23 July 1936, and the destroyer began operations within the Baltic Fleet on 28 August 1939, while later being transferred to the Soviet Northern Fleet in 1941.

She took part in numerous ground support and convoy escort operations while in the Northern Fleet, alongside her sisters "Gromkiy" and "Sokrushitelnyy".

When the Kriegsmarine were debating if they should send the battleship Tirpitz up North in order to cut the lend-lease support for the Soviets, Gremyashchiy was supposed to be fighting against her, however thanks to HMS Campbeltown's successful raid on the dock of St. Nazaire, this never came to reality.
