History:

The Russian Slava Class Missile Cruisers were developed by the Soviet Union during the Cold War to provide powerful surface strike capabilities and fleet air defense. Designed as a more cost-effective alternative to the larger Kirov-class, the lead ship Slava was launched in 1979 and commissioned in 1983. Three ships entered service: Slava (later renamed Moskva), Marshal Ustinov, and Varyag.

These cruisers are best known for their armament of 16 P-500 or P-1000 Vulkan anti-ship missiles, along with surface-to-air missiles, naval guns, and torpedoes. They were designed to counter NATO carrier groups and protect Soviet interests at sea. With their powerful sensors and layered air defenses, they served as flagships of their respective fleets.

After the Soviet collapse, the ships continued service under the Russiann Navy. Moskva was notably involved in the 2022 invasion of Ukraine before sinking in the Black Sea. The remaining vessels remain in service, representing key assets of Russian’s surface fleet.
