The Kirov class nuclear-powered guided missile cruiser "Pyotr Velikiy". Pyotr Velikiy (Пётр Великий) is a heavy nuclear-powered cruiser, the fourth Kirov class battlecruiser of the Russian Navy. Pytor Velikiy is the flagship of the northern fleet.
If you were wondering "Pytor Velikiy" is russian for Peter the Great.
Although I can't find any information on the armament of this warship. I am guessing it packs a punch.
Admiral Kuznetsov
Now this is truely a beauty of a ship. Able too carry up to 33 fixed wing aircraft and 12 hellicopters. It also carries twelve launchers for SS-N-19 anti-ship surface-to-surface missiles, unlike Western aircraft carriers which carry little organic armament. For long-range air defense, the ship carries 24 vertical launchers for SA-N-9 surface-to-air missiles with 192 missiles. For close-range air defense, the ship carries eight Kashtan Close-in weapon system mounts. Each mount has two launchers for 9M311 SAMs, twin GSh-30 30mm rotary cannons, and a radar/optronic director. The ship also carries six AK-630 30mm rotary cannons in single mounts. To sum it up this is not really just an aircraft carrier it is one ship that will fuck shit up.
