Ivan Gren (Russian: Иван Грен) is an Ivan Gren-class landing ship of the Russian Navy, the lead ship of her class.

The first of the class to be ordered and built, Ivan Gren was laid down in 2004. Long delays resulted in her not being launched until 2012, and commissioned in 2018. She was assigned to the Northern Fleet's 121st Landing Ship Brigade. Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, she has undertaken port visits in the Baltic Sea and Barents Sea displaying examples of captured and destroyed Ukrainian military equipment.
