Lead trawler of Project 12700 laid down, though ship had factually been in construction for many years. This is the largest ship in the world made of fiberglass.
While by no means an expert on the missile, I do believe the engagement mechanics are identical or very similar, and I presume the flight profile has some tweaking to maximize range, much like extra range was achieved via lofting for AAMs.
Yep, but they get the job done. Keep in mind it is not exactly the newest of boats, even older American ships don’t look all sexy inside ( recent pic of a Perry http://gallery.greedykidz.net/get/998517/6986.jpg?g2_serialNumber=1) It looks like they did install some kind of screen. Twower mentioned photos were barely allowed of the command centers and operational equipment, but it is likely further “up-to-date” equipment has supplemented the steam gauges.
I was really surprised (pleasantly)by the new facilities in the area for the submariners. These distant navy bases had horrid conditions even a decade before.
