Now the Navy has eight ships of project 1155. "Marshal Shaposhnikov", "Admiral Vinogradov", "Admiral Panteleev" and "Admiral Tributs" are part of the Pacific fleet. "Vice Admiral Kulakov", "Severomorsk" and "Admiral Levchenko" are assigned to the Northern fleet. "Admiral Kharlamov" is in the sump. And "Admiral Chabanenko" - improved project 1155.1 - at the ship repair plant.
So four in the Pacific Fleet and three in the Northern Fleet and one at the repair plant...

They don't want to bother with it
Even with this overhaul it doesn't have much time left

Actually I don't understand why they don't just replace them with newly build type 55 destroyers. The modernization is so deep that it is similar to building a new ship.

Yup, with the great side benefit of keeping her intact to eventually become a museum ship.PapaDragon wrote:walle83 wrote:It just seems strange that they could keep the old Smetlivy going for decads after it should have been retired, but the Sovremennys that were alot younger the cant keep going.

Workload
Smetlivy was good enough for Black Sea but would have never made the cut for North

I guess they just do this because there are not enough 22350 yet, probably they don't have big plans for the ship apart from filling the gap for some years...
They wouldn't be creating the angled UKSK if they weren't planing to use them.

The Chinese dont seem to waste any platforms, everything from the early 90s and forward is getting overhauld and rearmed.

Why would you ever replace Moskits with KH-35s?
The Moskit has the same range and is surface skimming while also being supersonic

Well they are replacing the Moskit with the Kh-35 on the updated Tarantul 'Molniya' corvettes so why not on the destroyers
