摘要

Work to reactivate the navy's Soviet-era nuclear-powered missile cruisers has finally got underway, after years of delays, with the start of work on Admiral Nakimov. The third of four Kirov class warships has been laid up at Severodvinsk since 1999. She will undergo a comprehensive overhaul at the yard that rebuilt the aircraft carrier Vikramadiyta for the Indian Navy.
