OK everybody, I have little something I've been working on that I would like to share with you all.
It started as a simple chart for my personal use because I always get lost in Russian naval project numbers and whatnots. But with me being obsessive little prick that I am, it quickly escalated into something actually worth sharing with others.
Mind you, it is not complete. I would also like to add stuff like: Project 22160 Offshore patrol vessel, Project 22800 Karakurt, Project 22460 Rubin-class, Project 22100 Okean-class, Project 23550 Arctic patrol ship (I also need length of this one), Project 12700 Aleksandrit class minesweeper and Project 18280 Yury Ivanov-class intelligence ship.
However, I was unable to find any good pictures of those ships so if any of you run into some good ones (or better pictures of ships already there) send them to me so I will add them later.
I used vessels that are currently in service or that are about to be built. No retired ships (there are plenty of graphs for Soviet Navy out there)
Names and numbers are from Wikipedia. Sizes should be 99% accurate. I used Kirov class as benchmark and worked my way from there.
It is still work in progress so if you notice anything wrong let me know.
Disclaimer: I did not draw anything!!! I just found pictures on-line and resized them.
Enjoy!

Shhhhh. The frenchman who produced part of that shit, says he didn't have time to change the data, because he filled the loo two weeks before the Stratfor news.Militarov wrote:"This unit used to have four Kamov Ka-52 helicopter gunships, but these were all destroyed in an accident at Tiyas air base on May 14, 2016."

That's pretty cool, even to me, a big fleetophob.
About the Project 23550, as I said, I don't know much (or anything) about ships and a fleet (only that they can look beautiful, that's basically it), so I've googled it:

the length should be 114 m

.......My contacts who serve as professional military pilots could never imagine their Russian colleagues would do such things as bomb civilians.....
.......Actually, most of the successful “decapitation” operations flown during the same period — including the December 2015 strike that killed Zahran Alloush, the famous leader of the Islamic Front — were undertaken by the Syrian Arab Air Force....
