And they are in progress of doing upgrades
Not the sketch I was thinking of (& I think it was actually an Udaloy not Sov) but found this

Ummm
Let me inquire on this first actually and i'll get back to you
BUT IF they are getting Uran launchers....
Probably similar setup to US DDGs where Harpoons missiles containers were placed in the ass of the ship while Anti-Ship Tomahawk missiles are in the MK41 VLS
You can contact me on my discord if you want to try find out more i guess?
UPDATE:
Oh you meant another article because i see no mention of Uran launchers...
there shouldn't be i think...

According to some rumors Uran launchers will be installed in the place of Silex containers which will be removed
If true it means a lot of space in the front for Urans, they could squeeze quite a few of them
This was a Klub promo image, I believe whats shown are variants of how Klub can be mounted rather than a proposed upgrade.

Inclined Urans on the sides & VLS UKSK is interesting, anything on the AA?
At least upgrade the Tor hopefully but I'd like to see Shtil-1 or Redut.
Could Pantsir-M fit somewhere?

this upgrade adding two UKSK launchers and Uran missiles is interesting as I would expect with the ability to carry 16 missiles in the UKSK launcher at least half will be the anti sub Klub missiles... probably three quarters... ie 12 of 16 missiles would be mach 2.5 ballistic rockets to deliver anti sub torpedoes up to 50km from the ship.
The Urans would be good enough for back up anti ship self defence, which leaves 4 tubes for something else like a land attack missile or more powerful anti ship weapon.
I suspect it will remain fundamentally anti sub, but when needed for land attack AKA Syria, then the Uran would protect the ship and 12 tubes of the UKSK could carry land attack missiles with 4 tubes left for anti sub work.....

It will be interesting to see what they actually do regarding angled UKSK tubes because this will have implications regarding the Slava class vessels.................
