Ukraine ping
Apart from the symbolic aspect of the name, the Moskva (previously the Slava) is the first (presumably) formerly nuclear-armed vessel to be sunk in action.

The Moskva was meant to kill Ukrainians. Large numbers of them. Instead it descended to its watery grave. RIP.

Slava means "glory." Moskva (Moscow) was previously the name of a helicopter carrier that was in service from the mid-sixties to the mid-nineties.

This is fake news.One other item I've seen recently said that the ship was safe at Savastopol. The Moskva is primarily built to kill US carriers. It shouldn't even be in the black sea, it doesn't carry any weapons for attacking land targets.

Day 50 of Putin’s 3 day war (A news alert from Russian newspaper Pravda, citing a report from the Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) read: “Putin expected to seize Ukraine in three days. This is the supply of provisions he distributed to his soldiers.”)
Putin brilliantly playing 5d chess with ping pong balla has declared his flag ship caught fire (after being hit by Ukrainian missiles) and become a crab Fisher...

Ukraine had announced a new stamp the same day. That's the ship they sank.

Naval warfare is brutal Always has been. Many men die in a flash.
Ukrainian Missiles ? Could be .
Russian engineering or ordnance failure ? Could be.
Some kind of combo of the two? Could be.
If U attacked while the R’s where in the midst of a snafu of their own making, then luck was with them.
If it was the U missiles, I would guess the U’s had some assistance , probably in the EW dept .

It’s good to see that the Russians lost a guided missile cruiser that they were using to launch cruise missiles against Ukrainian city’s killing hundreds of civilians in the process.
I have No sympathy for the Russian Navy personnel that were lost.Nor am I unhappy that the Ukrainians were finally able to put a serious hurt on their enemies.
