Wikipedia says the Admiral Levchenko is a Soviet-era ship commissioned in 1988.

All of Russia's major surface combatants (major = destroyer and larger) are Soviet era, or within a few years. Their dwindling fleet is down to just 4 cruisers and 10 destroyers, all over 30 years old. Save for their submarine fleet, they are more of a Coast Guard now, with a handful of frigates and a bunch of corvettes and patrol boats, most of them also Soviet era.
