Additional Information
By the end of 1960-ies were in the ranks of the Soviet Navy ships armed with artillery caliber 130-152 mm (cruiser type "Sverdlov" 68bis Ave. and destroyers Ave. 30bis, 56 and 56A) have reached a considerable age and their replacement required new ships. The main artillery ship of the next generation of the Soviet Navy was the project 956.
In 1971 he started designing the "vehicle of fire support of landing" "956 Modern". The process of designing the ship was very difficult. So in the process of designing began to change the purpose of the ship. Significant impact on him had a program create a new generation of destroyers type Sprues first multi-purpose ships of the U.S. Navy.
In 1971, the Northern design Bureau was issued a tactical and technical task for the design of the "ship of fire support of the landing". The chief designer of this ship was I. I. Rubis.
Two six-barrel RBU-1000 units, two double-tube 533-mm torpedo tubes, as well as an anti-submarine ka-25 helicopter (later Ka-27), which was located in a sliding shelter hangar, were adopted as anti-submarine weapons. The helipad was raised on the roof of the superstructure and close to the center of the pitching, which improved the landing conditions of the helicopter with significant waves at sea. According to the latest classification adopted by the Soviet Navy, the ship became a destroyer of the 1st rank. In the final version, it was designed for missile strikes on enemy surface ships, providing fire support to the landing, anti-aircraft and anti-ship defense of ships and transports.
a Total of 17 ships of this project were built. The entire series was based in Leningrad, at the plant named after A. A. Zhdanov (now Severnaya Verf). The head ship of the series was the "Modern", laid on the slipway March 3, 1976. On 18 November 1978 he was launched on 25 December 1980 and was commissioned a Naval Fleet. Other ships of the series, according to a good Maritime tradition, inherited their names from the destroyers, served their term ("Rattling", "Fast", "Perfect", "Fearless", etc.)
