well it said anchar, and Im not so good in russian to figure that pre-surfix out…so thanks for correcting me…

about that pre-moskva ship…it reminded me of this:

One of the early design from the TsKB-17…

….BTW here’s the site saying the kapusta/1153 relations…

http://www.radiationworks.com/nuclearships.htm#ural

Originally designed as Project 1153 – a new nuclear powered full -deck aircraft carrier – construction was suspended in 1983 when 50% completed and put aside for 5 years when when it was decided the hull was too small to launch aircraft and the catapult system designed for the ship failed. The hull was then used for the Ural Project #1941 “Titan” (Nato Codename “Kapusta” ). Officially designated ‘Sudno Suyazyy’ (Communications Vessel). She has since been laid up and is in used as a powerplant on the Pacific coast.

There could be some point there snake, but this 11780 pics are from russian military expo form the few years back, so it’s lot more newer than just an eigtyes design. Also it’s lot larger (someone saying it being size of Tarawa) than Khalzan which didn’t even have a hangar. None of my sources form the Khalzan have ever mentioned anything continious development of it so this possiple link between these two ships (if it ends up being true) is greatly appriciated….

Here is few other pics of the Khalzan:

1) Sounds a lot of crap to me, wll look at Russian forums

Well actually it was some internet site which was about nuclearpowered vessels of the world…but some russian sources says it also….

2) Did You mean 11711? That’s much smaller, around 8000 tons

No, this one:
