Congratulations, congratulations - we wish you happiness, joy!

[ShturmKGB]

It was necessary to make a volley in Malta to cover both at once ... Bush and Gorbachev ...

[Papakiko]

Here she is "Cinderella".

[YARY]

Edward!
These are your words, and under the brandy-explosive mixture!
"Moscow" - now Russia would have planned something similar - at least.

[Shoma-1970]

Yes, it’s unfortunate that this did not happen! I agree with you 100%

[Papakiko]

Very beautiful and truly combat-balanced ship.
It would still be modernized, only there is no time for this.
Though the unfinished "Ukraine" in Nikolaev to pick up or build a new one.

There is a military trick
The high saturation of Soviet ships with weapons and the features of their deployment gave grounds to foreign experts to conclude that "the Soviet design philosophy was aimed at creating ships for a preemptive strike in a transient and tense conflict." Also, the advantage was greater compliance with the objectives of "demonstration of force in order to support the state’s foreign policy." Placing a large quantity of weapons on the upper deck "made Soviet warships more formidable, regardless of their actual combat effectiveness." In the context of the growing local conflicts and the need for a constant "demonstration of power" in the Third World countries, this quality turned out to be almost the most important.

It really annoyed the Americans. They considered themselves both structurally and technologically better and were afraid of us.

High saturation of Soviet ships with weapons

At the risk of running into criticism, this is primarily due to the fact that the lack of smooth interaction between the ships (which was recognized, although not recognized) requires each combat unit to be able to conduct combat operations independently (for objectivity - and in conditions of partial destruction of grouping ships) . Therefore, our level of specialization was lower, and rocketry was placed on aircraft carriers.

And so much work, the hope of money disappears at the pier ................... eh, there wasn’t a brave officer then, I would give a spotted bald spot once !!

[Medik]

My korish served on this handsome man. The guards cruiser "Moskva" is our Black Sea flagship, it breathes the calmness of our southern borders! Celebrated today! I join in the congratulations to the crew and the ship! 7 feet under the keel! From the heart!

[ShturmKGB]

It was necessary to make a volley in Malta to cover everyone at once ...

[ups]

Seven feet under the keel!

[Vladimirets]

For a ship, as for a woman, another birthday is not a reason for joy. Although, of course, congratulations.

[strannik595]

congratulations to the sailors it’s just a shame that Sobyanin refused to patronize the cruiser, it’s in vain, Moscow will not become poor

[YARY]

In about..! YOU b ..! Without ENSEMBLE!
LYALA

it’s only a shame that Sobyanin refused to patronize the cruiser,

imha. It seems to me that all these "patronage" is "not the right honey"
The armed forces should be completely self-sufficient and must themselves patronize schools, institutes, orphanages in the end .. this would be a military patriotic burden .. otherwise all these patronages look like a nanny for a fighter.

[strannik595]

they cannot be self-sufficient (autonomous and independent), if only they are allowed to piracy they are on the balance sheet of the state ....... but sometimes conducting lessons in patriotism in schools is a very good idea, I’m only for

yeh ... this State must provide. )) on and the pirates as extra rations then)))

[orkibotu]

you look and understand what power lies !!!

[iv82an]

Happy holiday cruiser crew

[biglow]

Sobyanin has long changed his mind, patronage continues, and Moscow continues to provide various assistance to the city of Sevastopol. Sobyanin changed his mind the very next day ... the error went out

[fight]

beautiful photo

[older]

Congratulations to the sailors of Moscow on a holiday! A beautiful and mighty ship with you .. God grant him many more years of life and many seas under the keel! And to sailors - good service to the glory of the Fatherland and the Navy of Russia!

I agree, it is necessary to modernize it, and preferably faster, but is there a question of the modernization project. And it will take a lot of time to develop a project now.

[Predator-74]

Such a "boat" can perhaps deal with an entire squadron.

[воронов]

Seven feet under the keel of Moscow !!!

[seeman72]

Congratulations. Excellent service. Seven feet.

[Alekseir162]

Congratulations to the Guards Missile Cruiser (GRKR) "Moskva" on the thirtieth anniversary of the raising of the Naval Flag. Seven feet under the Moscow keel.

[ochakow703]

I congratulate all those who had and are related to this wonderful ship on their Jubilee! Seven feet under the keel!

[Medik]

It’s a pity to say this, but our fleet is aging (((7 feet under the keel. If inf., With what and when can it be replaced?

[RMRS]

There is nothing (For the projects of the cruisers remained only with the USSR, no one was financing them). Now they are trying to make a "promising destroyer", let's see what happens! There is no real replacement for the Eagles and Atlantes and is not being designed (

[Medik]

Well, the Eagles have a great potential for modernization. What I think you can’t say about the Atlanteans, another 7-10 years maximum and at rest. God forbid, the destroyer project will exit KB, but will not remain in the folder or in the plastic may ((

[RMRS]

The Eagles have it, of course, big, because the ship itself is big) You can "shove weapons" into it until you lose your pulse, it will always be a thunderstorm and the hallmark of the fleet, the question is that iron does not last forever, and it does not like downtime, but how much Our 3 Orlans are the first without maintenance? I disagree, I saw Atlantean development projects (but all this is the 90s), I consider its platform even very promising (workhorse), in fact, you can "shove" new weapons into any ship, modern and it will be enough Yes, the problem is that now we have almost no one to build, it will come out, but what will be the series? so we have to start from this!

[Medik]

The Varangian 3-4 years ago underwent modernization, but very much something didn’t change very much in terms of armament. This to me. The project itself is very fond of and I really want to hear about these ships in the future, but already modernized for the tasks of the 21st century.

[RMRS]

You see, our desires - all our desires! Hasn't it changed a lot? - so if you change something, do you need to slightly rework the project, who is involved in it? The answer is obvious ((((So we are waiting for decisions from the Ministry of Defense on new ships!

[Krasnoyarsk]

And "Ukraine is rotting in Nezalezhnaya.

[biglow]

Krasnoyarsk,
more precisely, an independent Ukraine rots

[RMRS]

A slightly revised project of our Project 11356R / M frigate, China did not reinvent the wheel and, again, under the strict guidance, built a "semi-Russian frigate"

[Sevastopol]

Yes. Pride of Sevastopol.
But still I want to surprise at least a couple of new ships in our bay.

[avt]

SEVEN FEET UNDER KEEL !! And the first name SLAVA I liked more. Atlanta still resembles the potential for modernization.

[Yuri11076]

I can congratulate the ship and crew on the 30th anniversary of service for the good of the Motherland !!!

[wolf1945]

ShturmKGB,
I completely agree! And the cruiser Moscow with a holiday!

[SEM]

Happy Holiday !!! Good luck at sea. It is a pity that only one such ship)))

GLORY Navy
REALLY THE NAME OF THE GLORY MORE APPROACHED

[TRex]

Oh ho ... Time is flying fast ...
It seems that I recently admired the super-powerful warship that appeared in the Sevastopol bay, but now 30 years have passed ... I have been retired for a long time. There are only memories of the service, but "Slava" is in the ranks and in the near future there will be no replacement - one trifle is on its way. The Black Sea Fleet was turned into a broom dump, and the beloved Sevastopol - into a big garbage dump ... Even boats from Grafskaya to Severnaya crawl "on small": fuel economy, and there is no one to carry too much. Veterans will understand me and will not judge me.
And "Moskva" - seven feet under the keel. Come on, cruiser - there is no one but you.

[Sevastopol]

Not true. We do not have any garbage and did not have it. except in the 90s. and the boats clogged actually go as usual. life is in full swing in the city, and the population is growing. a bunch of construction projects. true trading everything.
Well, Russian ships keep almost everything in order.
I’m silent about the Russian salary of sailors. 3 or 4 times already higher than Ukrainian. all on foreign cars and with huts already. if they shoot, they are so chic - and then compensate.
Of course, if our city had not been thrown by the traitor Yeltsin, it would have been much better here. but not so terribly all the same. largely because the fleet was abandoned.
and nothing. I think, after all, Russia will return the city to itself, sooner or later. not just bays and marinas.
all the more so, the overwhelming majority of the population only. and long and forever, apparently.

[TRex]

My dear Sevastopol! I visit the city every year - two years and I remember perfectly - what the city was - and what has become now ... I walked along B. Morskaya - near the Palace of Pioneers, trash cans are littered with garbage so that they cannot be seen, on the slopes to the Artbukhta - you cannot pass, alone stalls with "souvenirs" for suckers ... The bay is half-dead - no raid boats, no tugs ... boats run in 30 minutes. You should have seen, dear, how life was in full swing in the 70s, 80s ... Eh ... In Kamyshovaya - with a broom, on the Black River - everything was cut to zero ... Do not be offended - everyone has their own time, their ideals, their memory.
Fucked up my Sevastopol!

[biglow]

TRex,
everything is fine with Sevastopol, thanks to the Black Sea Fleet

[TRex]

I hope that time will put everything in its place and the city of Russian glory will again become part of our homeland.

[biglow]

TRex,
we are in the temporarily occupied territory

[understudy]

It’s a pity that they didn’t throw a tagged ghoul overboard ... with a grate on their hooves. Otherwise, he would not have drowned due to well-known reasons.
