Atlant (Project 1164 (Slava))

The Project 1164 Atlant, also known as the Slava-class, is a class of guided-missile cruisers designed for anti-ship and anti-air warfare. These powerful cruisers are notably armed with 16 P-500 Bazalt (SS-N-12 Sandbox) anti-ship missiles mounted in two rows on either side of the superstructure.

Developed in the Soviet Union by the Nikolayev 61 Communards Shipyard, the first ship of the class was commissioned in 1982, serving as a powerful asset in the Soviet and later Russian navies.
