Russian Slava Ship Brief

The Slava-class cruiser is a type of guided missile cruiser that was built for the Soviet Navy in the 1970s and 1980s. The class is named after the lead ship, the Slava, which means "glory" in Russian.

The Slava-class cruiser is a large and heavily armed warship, designed for a variety of naval operations. The ships in this class are 186 meters long and 20 meters wide, with a displacement of 11,500 tons. They are equipped with a variety of weapons systems, including 16 SS-N-12 Sandbox anti-ship missiles, 64 SA-N-6 Grumble surface-to-air missiles, and 40 130mm guns.

The Slava-class cruiser is also equipped with advanced radar and electronic warfare systems, as well as a helicopter hangar and flight deck for two Ka-27 helicopters. This allows the ship to conduct a variety of operations, including anti-air, anti-submarine, and anti-ship warfare, as well as naval gunfire support and reconnaissance missions.

The Slava-class cruiser was designed to be a formidable opponent to NATO naval forces, particularly the United States Navy. However, only three ships of the class were built, with the last one, the Admiral Flota Lobov, entering service in 1989. The ships served in the Soviet Navy and later the Russian Navy, with the Moskva and Marshal Ustinov still in active service as of 2021.
