Do any of our Russian friends have some good sources and data on the Zagon series of guided depth charges? Little low on data on this.

Key details needed:

In service dates

It seems Zagon-1 was exported to China in 1990s. No information about adopting it in Russia.

Zagon-2 is curently being produced for russian navy since 2017.

Would this suggest that it is a bistatic system? With the dipping sonar being the active source, and the weapon being the receiver?

Might just flag Triode on this mystery. He's helped us navigate Russian sources and language expertly in the past.
