The first of the Kara follow-on class wasfirst seen outside the Black Sea in 1983. Atfirst designated BlackCom 1 by Westernintelligence, and later known as the Krasina

class, these powerful vessels are now known as the Slava class after the original name of

the lead ship. Slava (now Moskva ), was laid down at the Nikolayev Shipyard in 1976.Launched in 1979, Slava entered service in 1983 after extensive trials. By 1990 three of the class were in service, with a fourth under construction.

Possibly designed as a less-expensive complement to the massive Kirov classbattlecruisers , the Slavas are primarily surface action vessels, designated RKR (RaketnyyKreyser, or missile cruiser). Their primary weapons are 16 P-500 Bazalt (SS-N-12Sandbox) anti-ship missiles, although they possess great anti-aircraft and anti-submarinecapability.

The hull appears to be an improved Kara type with increased beam and length toaccommodate new weapon systems, the larger size also enhancing stability and allowingthe radar mast height to be increased. Twin funnels are fitted, venting the exhaust from the

gas turbine propulsion system.

There have been reports that the Slavas were built with large quantities of flammablematerial, and their damage control systems were poorly designed.

Initially it was believed that at least eight and as many as 20 cruisers were planned,replacing the Kynda and Kresta classes as they retired. However, with the Russian navyvirtually bankrupt there were no funds available for such expensive warships, and only four were laid down.

Moskva was in refit through most of the 1990s, returning to become flagship of the BlackSea Fleet. The second unit, Marshal Ustinov , commissioned in 1986, serves with theNorthern fleet, though it has been in overhaul since the mid-1990s. Varyag (formerlythe Chervona Ukraina ) was commissioned into the Pacific Fleet in 1989. The fourth unit

was launched in 1990 as the Admiral Lobov , but was transferred incomplete to theUkrainian Navy. Renamed Ukraina , it was still incomplete in 2009, but if funds becomeavailable it is intended to serve as the Ukrainian fleet flagship.
