(WIP) Slava Class Cruiser | The Sea Power Collection
Introduction
This build is a 1:3 scale of the Soviet Slava class guided missile cruiser.
Slava is the first of the ships included in the Sea Power Collection, which features military vessels from the 1960s to the 1990s, mainly those present in the popular naval combat game Sea Power.

Necessary mods
Despite being built in a 1:3 scale, the Slava class doesn’t fit in the vanilla workbench. Therefore, you’ll need modded, bigger workbenches to spawn it. You can find the one I use [url=https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3357835209] here [/url]

*Disclaimer*
This build is currently Work In Progress, so it's in an incomplete state. The interior is very basic. That said, feedback on design and performance is very much welcome, so feel free to leave me your suggestions in the comments/threads!

Description
The Slava class, Soviet designation Project 1164 Atlant (Russian: Атлант, romanized: Atlant, lit. 'Atlas'), is a class of guided-missile cruisers designed and constructed in the Soviet Union for the Soviet Navy and currently operated by the Russian Navy.
The design started in the late 1960s, based around use of the P-500 Bazalt missile. The cruiser was intended as a less expensive conventionally powered alternative to the nuclear-powered Kirov-class battlecruisers. All are now armed with P-1000 Vulkan AShM missiles, developed in the late 1970s to late 1980s. There was a long delay in this programme, while the problems with the Bazalt were resolved.
