Description
Known to the Soviets as the Kondor (Project 1123) the Moskva-class are a pair of helicopter carriers intended for intensive ASW operations. These ships are notorious for their poor sea-keeping abilities, rendering them mostly confined to the Mediterranean where their powerful sonars can exploit the bottom bounce propagation phenomena.
