Beautiful drawings, of course. No major ASW weapon for Project 33? Seems like a bad omission for a large ASW ship. Maybe a system like RPK-1 could share rails and magazines with SAN-1 the way Terrier shared with ASROC? Of course, those are already not large magazines. |

They were converted just prior the introduction of the Purga ASW missile system. Like mentioned the somewhat clumbersome launchers of the M-1 SAM system prevented other type of missiles carried onboard, universal launchers were only adopted in Novgorod during the 70-80's with introducing the Kvant/Kolibri system.
Of course, those are already not large magazines. |

Beautiful, I really like the way you're depicting deck camber on the Kirov-analogs. Can we get a sort of cartoon of how the Strela launcher is supposed to operate? I don't understand the drawing of that part. With regards to the Griffon, early western SAM developers were particularly worried about beam-riding missiles not being able to receive guidance signals through the noisy environment of a single rear motor. This is particularly the case for the British, whose Sea Slug and Fireflash both reserved the rear of the missile for antennas (Sea Slug had midships motors, and Fireflash itself was unpowered after booster jettison). If Novgoradian engineers are especially worried about this, then wrap-around boosters make sense. But once they discover the issue is overblown, the poor volumetric efficiency of wrap-around boosters would (IMHO) likely lead to their quick abandonment. If it's just a stylistic choice, of course that's your decision as the artist : ) |

Strela is basicly direct adaption of the real soviet never-where design for the original M-11 system. To my best knowlidge it had the missiles stored horizontally in a drum magazine and the launcher arms had pylons which lowered the arm to the deck-level where the missiles were somehow fitted to the launcher arms and then raised back up to the launching position. |

Very impresive series! . May you explain me if the airplane like missile (the Meteor?) is a cruise missile with very long range (like the american Snark) for land attack? Thanks and cheers. |

No, its a long range anti-ship missile similar size and capabilities as Soviet Granit (SS-N-19 Shipwreck) |
