The Kara and Kresta II class are some of the most beautiful Soviet Navy designs.

[@DOUGLAS55ish]

There are only two types of ships; Submarines and Targets.

[@99hockeynhl]

Active ASW ships are still a thing ya know

[@DOUGLAS55ish]

@@99hockeynhl, it's still a target.

[@99hockeynhl]

@@DOUGLAS55ishAt that point the sub becomes the target.

@@99hockeynhl my years in the submarine service tells me different.

​@@DOUGLAS55ish To be fair the US has a pretty poor surface Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) fleet. Mostly relying on ASW sonobuoy helicopters and hull mounted sonars to get the job done (this is no problem since the US has a doctrine of defeating enemy submarines with maritime patrol planes & submarines).

I'm liking the way the Soviets/Russian tooled their ships up to the max. Wherever there was a gap, they filled it in with a weapon system!!!

Beautiful and impressive ship

[@copperlemon1]

The Soviet surface ships of the early Cold War always struck me as unique. You can really see, in the destroyer and cruiser designs just how foreign the use of guided missiles was, and how no one was quite sure what would work. The way their cruiser designs went from a gun-central design, to only having them as an afterthought, as on the Kynda, Kresta, and Kara classes, back to a more "balanced" approach using the AK-130. The same sort of phenomenon can be seen in US and other Western designs, but not as blatantly, I think.

One of my favorite Cold War Cruisers my favorite ship of the class is Petropavlovsk

[@CriscCiaddu]

the cruiser kara technically was not the first cruiser with vertical missiles as the first unit was launched in 1968. The first ship was the cruiser Giuseppe Garibaldi modernized in 1961 with 4 vertical tubes containing UGM-27 Polaris ballistic missiles.

8:14- I forgot the Kara-class cruisers carried the SA-N-3 like the Kiev-class

Even better than the NATO names for Soviet ships is the NATO names for their radars

[@M551_Sheridan]

All I needed was this to make an absolutely AWESOME edit, so thanks for making this

Wait, there is a second cold war?

[@WeaponDetective]

In our perspective, the world is experiencing a new cold war. For this reason, we think that the usage of terms First Cold War and Second Cold War are more accurate.

[@Nahal0nok]

@@WeaponDetective The first Cold War never ended. There is no exact start date for the second CW for this reason.

The stark geometry of Kresta I evolved N2 the beautiful Kresta II, but the Kara w/ her great gas-turbine hole went a bit too far N2 the zone of gangly missile yacht

[@grojunge2449]

Wait wait wait the FIRST Cold War I’m sorry do you read the future or something???

[@travistucker1033]

The cold war is sometimes split into three eras. Cold War I 1945 -1967, Detente 1967-1979, and Cold War II 1979-1989

[@lil__boi3027]

Wrong as well, first cold war was from 1945 untill the collapse, we are in the second right now​@@travistucker1033

All Russian weapon systems are declared as legends without combat experience. 😂😂😂 Until they meet superior British /American technology..
