there you have to also remember that Western naval philosophy is one thing and Soviet one is another, wich pretty much always placed much weigth on the missile arsenal.

Thougth Soviet practice also called for bigger missiles, it was impossible to accomondate them into Destroyer/ligth Cruiser size hull anymore than 8….once Russians came with smaller, western sense of missile, the Uran, the propotion rose to 16 missiles. Thougth Soviet never completed any desing that had the missile fit rigth from the start, they never exceed that number by themselves, and all Uran fits in Russian navy has been modifications to existing desings were other factors have prevented more than 4 to 8 missile carried.
