Thanks Golli those of us who don’t take every opportunity to kick a Navy when it is down appreciate you posting this… and also putting in the effort to create it in the first place. 🙂

Well I will draw Chabayenko as well as Frunze, Kalinin and Petr Velikyi…

Its just that after such a huge drawings, you want to take a little distance to the ships for while and draw something else before returning to them.

But yeas I’m always interested of good images and linedrawings.

all yours…

Very good work! If you ever plan on doing one of the Admiral Chabanenko I have several recent (in the last year) pics of it if you want them.

Guidance was by radar beam-riding, the beam was provided by the Type 901 fire-control radar. There were 3 flight modes;

LOSBR (Line Of Site, Beam Riding) where the missile flew up a beam that tracks the target.
CASWTD (Constant Angle of Sight With Terminal Dive) with the missile climbing at a low angle and then diving onto a low-altitude target
MICAWBER (Missile In Constant Altitude While BEam Riding), similar to CASWTD, but with a terminal low-level glide phase to, so the Mark 2 variant could be used against ships. This mode suffered from the problems associated with the surface of the water reflecting the guidance beam.

There were two main variants of Sea Slug:

Mark 1 (GWS.1)
The Sea Slug Mark 1 was powered by the NK.1 liquid sustainer rocket motor and Gosling booster motor. It had a radio proximity fuze and 200 lb (91 kg) blast warhead.

Particulars
Attack Velocity: 685 mph (1,102 km/h)
Range: 30,000 yards (27,000 m)
Ceiling: 55,000 feet (17,000 m)

Mark 2 (GWS.2)
Sea Slug Mark 2 was based on the aborted Blue Slug programme for a nuclear-armed anti-ship missile using the Sea Slug missile and guidance system. In the event the project was cancelled in favour of Green Cheese missile but other project developments were incorporated into what became the Mark 2. It had improved low altitude performance and a limited anti-ship capability and entered service in 1965. It was initially powered by the Foxhound sustainer motor, later replaced by the Deerhound, with Retriever boosters. Control was by a modified Type 901M radar and it had an improved infra-red proximity fuze and a continuous-rod warhead with a smaller, 56 lb (25 kg), explosive charge and large steel penetrator.

Particulars
Attack Velocity: 1,370 mph (2,200 km/h)
Range: 35,000 yards (32,000 m)
Ceiling: 65,000 feet (20,000 m)

Could Sea Slug be used against ships?

Probably, but being a surface to air missile I doubt it would have a very large warhead. It is very bulky with all those boosters around it, but it is basically a SAM.

Could Sea Slug be used against ships?

Well the link didn’t work:( …But I just figured it out by myself:D I used the hull of my drawing of Krivak-I but I didn’t remember to change the name:o

But the missiles (the Metel is drawn by Martin Conrad are intentionally “too large” or in wrong scale in order to show them better.

The link works, you just click on the link which opens in a new tab:)

And You may reconsider dimensions of SS-N-14

Beautiful Work, I’m lost for words

Brezhnev, can u please (!) stop spamming all military forums online with topics about russian navy. We are all tired reading about your displeasure with the russian goverment and how they run things. I see you with different nicks on a dozen military forums, but you are very easy to recognize. Stating the same thing in every posts, and asking the same question over and over again. Often with a bad attitude over other forum-members. I respect your knowledge about russian navy and weaponsystems, but you need to calm dawn dude, and keep your personal opinions for yourself. No need to repeat yourself every time….ok?

Are you administrator? I have to take this as threat? Anyway only one nick I have. And I participate here in warfare.ru and in other one forum, so I participate in 3 forums not in 12. This topic has to do with Russian navy, and the armed forces as the navy are closely connected with the political decisions and political issues. A president who come from armed forces, or from secret services, will spend much more for defence issues than a liberal president. That is what I say nothing more nothing less. As for Kirovs the facts clearly prooves what I say.

1. Kirov and Admiral Lazarev are dead meat.

2. The modernization process has not started yet in “Admiral Nakhimov” and no one knows anything about what is gonna happen. So the vessel is getting older and older, and very soon it will be more preferable to scapp it than to modernize it.

3. The last one “Pyotr Veliki” is not participate in the navy’s mission why? It is because is not operational anymore?

That is my point of view. Am I CLEAR?

I wish to see the “modernized” Admiral Nakhimov, with new radars, and new launchers. Unfortunatelly the new prezident which is Ultra liberal, Dmitry Medvedev has decided to scrapp all Kirov class cruisers. The Kirov has been already scrapped in sevmash. Also as I know Medvedev wants to cansell the modernization of Nakhimov. So we will never see these beatyfull vessels in the sea anymore, the only thing I pray for it is to see the in 1/350 scale from Trumpeter.

So Medvedev actually said somewhere “We need to scrap all Kirov class battlecruisers?”

Link please?
